Yeah, Limerick in fairness stayed ..

If it's there respect it..

There are fines given for all sorts of things at this level, hopefully that's the case
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

That's a great goal for Waterford.

Not sorry to see Henry beat. Is enough great men bout Galway without going to him. Henry probly be Kilkenny manager now if he'd not gone to one of their greatest rivals.

Perhaps he successfully ensured that they are no longer rivals!

Not sure you could get more out of that team ? Maybe a new voice needed though. The draw against Tipp very poor in hindsight
Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

Plus they'll be against the wind in 2nd half.

A red card for me. Reckless when ball was gone.
Thought red was severe... yellow for me

You might be right. Me I am not sure about it. The thing about it is though Burke didn't have to make the hit. He deliberately laid the man out and left the ref with a decision to make. The ref didn't have the benefit of slow motion replays and after consulting with the linesman Burke was gone.

It cost Galway the game and possibly Henry his job

Not so sure it cost them the game - they had a strong Salthill wind  behind them in the first half.
And let's face it they've been sh*te all year. Were not going to be contenders one way or another

What was up with the Nowlan  park pitch today? Looked like a ploughed field

It was a needless challenge, silly even, especially when the ball was gone. Some will say a red, others will say  yellow but it's not the reason they lost.

They were very poor V Antrim. Antrim's sending-off made Galway look good at the start of the 2nd half.  Wexford beat them and then the earlier draw with Kilkenny.

Consistently inconsistent!

Ironically it was M'OD that put them to the sword today. He was the last manager to get a tune out of that Galway squad. When you see big Johnny Glynn coming off the bench, it's not saying much for their bench/squad.

Henry's career has stalled a bit because of this period.  I'm sure they looked an attractive proposition from the outside but he hasn't progressed them, for whatever reason. I think they need a clear out and a rebuild is needed.

Whether it's him or not, time will tell.

Cyril Farrell fan

A lot of Galway people were sickened yesterday to see one of our own put the final knife into Galway.
There is no way Shefflin will be allowed stay on.

The search for a new man starts again.

Looks like Kilkenny are lucky he wasn't their manager!
