Loafing Oaf

Breaffy won 1-13 to 1-10. Breaffy cruising most of the game but conceded a fluky late goal.

Very good contest.

Well they should have got another couple of goals in the first half anyway.

Apologies es for the double post. This is more my idea of a close fought game. 3 pojnts each 20-odd minutes in.

Loafing Oaf

And just as I post, goal for tubber!

Extra time

Castlebar 1-9 Ballintubber 1-9

Cracking contest

Always_Running

Tubber grab a draw with the last kick of the game (C O'Connor free)

Always_Running

Extra time now when supporters was going home.

Loafing Oaf

J Horan just walked past me seemingly on his way home, you’d think he would have known the arrangements😛

Yeah they should have announced on the final whistle. My dad who knows his stuff was sure it was going to replay.

Mitchel's down to 14 men with Aidan Walsh sent off in the first half still managed to squander two guilt edged goal chances in the second half.

Tubber very poor tactically, left extra man in defence most of the game

Durcan black carded big loss too.

Tubber a point up at HT-ET

Thought he was imperious tonight.Some outstanding tackles leading to turnovers,he was literally everywhere.

He truly has found his home at midfield.

Mitchels should have been home and dry at the end of normal time and they spurned numerous chances in the first period of extra time.

Great to see so many of the inter county players showing,Seamie in particular had a very good outing for Breaffy.Matthew Ruane is a future Mayo midfielder.

I'd say Mitchels should retain their title if they can keep their men on the field. Not saying anything terribly original here, but they've got a stronger squad overall, whereas both Breaffy and Ballintubber are heavily reliant on a few star players.

I think Ballintubber have a fairly strong squad. 2 of their subs scored points in ET and Padraic O'Connor doesn't weaken the team when he comes on. Take Paddy Durcan and Neil Douglas out of Castlebar and they'd struggle too.

Breaffy should have won the first game by more, missed a lot of chances. Matthew Ruane was excellent, especially in the 2nd half.

Any evidence to show why they felt unsafe? No. Thought so.
Silly little girls back playing schoolyard games. Probably not invited to someones birthday party and got in a hissy.
Now a laughing stock. I can imagine what real footballers in Dublin and Cork ladies team think of them

I think the Mitchels have greater room for improvement,big Barry contributed handsomely on the scoreboard and in general play.Looks likely Donie Newcombe will be out for the replay.

Breaffy were a totally transformed outfit from the one that took the field against Westport.

Aidan caused Ballagh no end of problems at full forward in the first half and was effective when he drifted out the field in the second half.Conor O Shea again made an excellent contribution.

Second year in a row now Mitchells have been brought to a semi replay

Interesting to see how they respond to this, but maybe just not the all conquering force of 2015/16 anymore

Hope they fix the replay for Saturday evening.

Breaffy have some big lads,Peter Dravins and Robert Fadden.

I thought at one stage Robert Fadden might push on and come into contention at inter county level.

Cian Hanley handles quite an amount of ball but needs to bring a greater level of scoring threat to his armoury.

Akram was quite tied down at centre half back,not showing enough at this stage to step up in our strongest line.

No Carnacon mention today. The "girls" will feel neglected. Perhaps they should call a press conference to say how under appreciated they feel. No one is giving them any respect

The girls felt unsafe and walked away.They are entitled to do that.

The only things that they felt unsafe about was no longer getting their own way,picking the team and starting the match.

PressRun

James Horan interview here where he talks about coaching structures being strong within Mayo at the moment. The second time he's made mention of a "coaching movement" in the county in an interview. What are people's thoughts on this? He seems quite excited about that side of things.

You seem happy enough talking away to yourself. Again, why do you feel the need to post this stuff here?
