He'll be another man gone I'd say!

Well done Meath.
A game broke out after Meath scored their goal!
Another manager vacancy?
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

Hope Tyrone get Meath. Don't rate them at all. Galway very poor..

Quote from: Estimator on June 29, 2025, 03:26:49 PMHow did Galway let them get the short kick away on that last play? Complete switch off.
Molloy the dope left Finnerty with a 2 v 1 in the corner.

Hooter went after the ball went out. should there not have been a kick out?

No.

Galway are getting like Mayo. The nearly men. Good win for Meath.

Quote from: Silkyskillssunshinee on June 29, 2025, 03:26:59 PMWhy weren't Galway allowed to get the kick out away? There was 15 seconds left when that free was kicked..

If you're placing  all your eggs into a "win a kickout and get last score" basket, then failure is inevitable. Circumstances shouldn't matter.

Was the hooter on time?

I've no idea of the rule if time expires when the ball is out of play.

If the ball is already out of play following a score, a wide or for a sideline kick when the hooter sounds, the Referee shall signal the end of playing time on the sounding of the hooter.

Great day for Meath but Tyrone, Donegal and Armagh/Kerry will be a step above.

Galway have more potential but far too many errors on the day.

Cunny Funt

Bizarre ending but that is the "great" new rules for you. Some championship for Meath to reach the last 4 totally against the odds and have beaten Kerry,Dublin and now knocked Galway out of the championship.  Fully deserved win for Meath and kept calm when Galway scored 2-3 in 4 minutes. End of the road for Joyce with Galway?

Congrats to Meath. We were terrible.
Meath would not have been flattered by an 8 or 9 point win.
We haven't adapted our attacking play for the new rules at all.

I say that's Joyce gone, Galway been off the pace for a while now. Conroy will go. Still plenty of good players but defence needs looked at, keeper needs sorted. Sorta looks like they dropped bck the form of 22-24. Walsh and Comer probably only another 2yrs in them.

Hooter is such balls, encourages teams to time waste at the end. Why do we punish keepers for time wasting but encourage teams that are leading to time waste. Terrible way to end a game.
