Sam Maguire 2024 Group 1 - Galway, Armagh, Derry, Westmeath

[Armagh18]

We got the same result as we got in 4 other close games in the last few years only this time we didn't have to go to extra time and penalties.

My take on it is Galway will be kicking themselves and should have won that game by 5-6pts. Armagh were off it all over the Park, I thought Ben Crealey was poor after having a stormer last game. He got dispossessed twice in a minute when the game was in the melting pot as he was too slow. Rian scored some lovely points but skinned twice for Galway scores, it's actually hard to find positives from the match yesterday only we didn't throw the towel in and battled for an undeserved draw. The Derry game has shown us we're not as good as we thought and TBH I was worried that the players would believe the hype and think they've made it, the truth is we're a decent side and that's it.

That free for Galway in injury time where S Walsh scored to put them 1 up is as bad a free as i've seen and haven't seen too many call it out only some Armagh fans. Can you imagine if that happens in the next game and that ended your season, did commentators call it out??. That S Hurson man wasn't that kind to Armagh yesterday.

Funny how things can change perceptions of teams. Armagh are in the final 2.
