    September is farce month at Mayo GAA :)

    More like it's GAA rather Mayo GAA. This happens way too much at county level as well. Amateur administrators, professional players.

    Are there two teams in the top photo? That's ludicrous, how could they have even started the game?

    Yip, I wasn't there myself, photos are from some of the Mayo Club 51 crew. Second photo is 2nd half after Mitchel's changed I think. Mad Ted!

    What did Mitchels change into out of curiosity? Looks like an old Mayo kit.

    Ballyhaunis won intermediate by a point.

    More ammo for the anti Connelley crowd here.

    It sure was nail biting in the end with some terrible shooting from Hollymount and a late missed free from Coen sealing the game for the Haunis. Been an unreal achievement by this group of players and some great potential especially young Morgan Lyons with the presence of Niall Prenty in the forward line who should be a certainty for the Mayo panel next year. Id say Higgins will cherish this more than any Connacht medal hes won for Mayo. Sensational he was in the 2nd half, worldy of a pass near the end to boot. Delighted for them hope they push on now. #26yearsAndCountingNoMore

    No problem with it. Just that i dont think he has done enough in his career nor is he nationally respected enough to merit an autobiography. He fancies himself as a bit of a celeb. Think it's a bit tragic actually but he can do what he likes i guess.

    What ?
    He is Mayos most prolific scorer.
    He left the county setup in bizzare circumstances.

    He has just as much to offer in a book as that ape from Roscommon has.

    And who cares about a national profile, lots of GAA books come put every year from people with low national profiles.

    someone obviously approached him as there was interest in it.
    Most of the people who are mouthing about him will be the ones buying it too ;)
    look at this thread already . no such thing as bad publicity

    I'm also pretty sure the book does have a title despite what the article says.
    I believe its called " Departed - The Conor Mortimer Story " !!!!

    All star nominations are out.6 in total for Mayo....
    Keith Higgins, Colm Boyle, Lee Keegan,Seamus and Aidan O Shea,Cillian O Connor.Tad surprised
    by Keegan's nomination.

    IMO Robert Hennelly and Jason Doherty are both unlucky to lose out, some level of competition in the half forward line.
    I think we'll get three...
    Higgins,Boyle and O Connor,too much competition in the half forward line for Aidan O Shea to get a look in.

    No offence to Lee Keegan, who is still one of the best players in the country, he has gotten that nomination on reputation - Donal Vaughan had a better year than him and should have gotten the nomination instead. Also, Jason Doherty should be nominated instead of either Donncha Walsh or Mark Lynch. Very important player for Mayo this season.

    Doherty has improved for Mayo this year from his erratic form up to 2012, obviously he was injured in 2013.
    He may be a very important player for Mayo but i'm not sure he is All Star nomination material just yet in what is a very strong HF line

    However I don't think he has been as good as Donnacha Walsh.

    Walsh is possibly the most underrate player Kerry have.
    He is a real work horse and again this year he will be denied a All Star because Murphy is in the HF line

    It could be argued that Murphy is being moved to accommodate Donaghey, but some might argue that Murphy is being moved to accommodate "the marquee forward" because "he score more form placed balls, he got send off, etc etc etc."

    Doherty was easily as effective if not more effective for Mayo than Walsh was for Kerry.

    If Mayo got to the final then Doherty would probably be nominated instead of Walsh.
    But Kerry got to the final and Walsh fully deserves a nomination.

    That logic doesn't make any sense.

    But that's the way the all star nominations work, they are loaded with the teams that get to the final and then the SF and one or two beyond that.
