Galway GAA Discussion Thread #2

Doctors room ghost

The best of luck to joycey and the footballers today.
Up the tribes

See below galway bench as per match programme. No Comer there but expect a late announcement pre throw in that he will wear 26 instead of Costello. Joyce has gone for experience and size on the bench with likes of o curraion back in who hasn't featured for him at all during the year. Steede is a big addition for the bench also.

Not much point in ya turning up at all according to a lot of mayo supporters. Be a nice day to win . Having said that we have it all to do missing daly and comer they would Defo be 2 of our best 5 . Anyway that’s what panels are for and hopefully other lads will step up. Be interest to see if team named starts . Best of luck to the lads .

I'll be very surprised if we win today. I think it will take Mayo thinking we're as bad as we were in Tuam that day and us significantly improving from our performance against Dublin. It was far too tentative. If we throw caution to the wind and go for it, its our best chance of getting a result.

Nonsense to say a lot. The vast majority of mayo supporters see it as a 50/50.

O Donnell in for Flynn, Comer on the bench

If we push up we could end up forcing them to bring AOS back out the field. Roscommon had the upper hand in middle on long kickouts. With O Donnell coming in there now it doesnt look like we will.

Is flynn injured? He will be a loss around the middle

Im thinking the same thing but nothing from the galway camp. Dont think O Donnell has the legs for 70 mins

threeball

Conceding the kickout and mayo pushing up. Stupid tactics from us.

grbear

Walsh is wasting a lot of possession.

This is awful tripe so far. Wonder what we do in training as we certainly don't coach anything of note.

Horan has improved Mayo despite declining resources.
We look as bad as we did under KW despite continued underage success.

threeball

Terrible crap. 15mins in and the writing on the wall. Concede possession and chase your tail for the rest of the day.

Fann Linn

This game will be over by half time. Galway losing possession all over the park.

ShamNNspace

We're lucky to be only 3 points down

threeball

If a team bothered their hole working on the mark they could pick off 10pts a game.

MIND THE F**KING BALL

Monaghan worked on it the year it was introduced and then used it successfully in the league beating Dublin by its use.

I know it's galway's first game, but still, Galway are pretty poor.

ShamNNspace

We can't hold onto the f**kin ball

threeball

Mayo have gotten away with 5 blatant pushes in the back

If you haven't bothered working on kickout you can forget about that.

You see all of our kickouts as we're that slow restarting, youd miss half of Dublins.

Clearly no coaching of the inches going on, probably jog a few laps, do some hand passing and kick passing drills that have no real game experience and then play a match before going home.

Stop. Where the f**k are our frees.

Happyilylost

Two Kelly's lads. Outstanding.

grbear

Should be dead and buried really so happy enough to be only three down.

Fann Linn

Only 3 in it considering how poor you played. With the wind at their back Galway definitely in this game now with quick ball down to the forward lines.

ShamNNspace

We're still in it in spite of ourselves
