No sign at all of any Leitrim comeback.

Ros lead 1-8 to 0-2.

Leitrim second best in every way, skillwise, physically, handling, decision making, tactically, scoring. Hard to see any threat to an easy Ross win.

Really impressed by the work rate of the Roscommon team.

Jez ye think Leitrim would try and be a bit more direct with that wind they have. nothing to lose now!

Leitrim no. 3 sticking a sly boot in there on the Roscommon lad on the ground. Probably harmless, but what's the point? You're getting hammered you p***k, take your beating like a man!

And Mc Enaney didn't even bother with the extra time. Pat doing it his way.

Good performance by Roscommon hard to know how good they are because Leitrim are so bad. How did Sligo lose to them?

Jaysus, Leitrim were putrid.
Ros looked good at times, but hit some bad wides, sloppy play etc. Very hard to know how good they are.
But they are physically strong, have a few very good forwards, and have an excellent workrate.
Shine and Kilbride will cause massive trouble for any defence.
They could very well put back-to-back Connacht titles together.

Saw that, little stamp on the right hand. Will brushed aside and never heard of again.

after last years surprises, order has been restored in the West.
The reigning champions are back in the final where they  will meet one of the big two

You couldn't blame him for that!

Some size difference betwen the two teams. Roscommon have some very big lads dotted around the field. Leitrim looked like a collection of minors compared to them.

Some performance from the Rossies in fairness, they are a changed team from the Ros teams of the last decade.

They'll be hard stopped in the Hyde regardless of whether it's Galway or Mayo they're against.

Will be a throwback to the 80s with Ros going into a Connacht final as favourites at home.
