No, thats the GB one, the International one is yet another product but no mention at all on the website yet, its very poor marketing and promotion. And you would think they would have all this decided by now and a list of games available for each pass, cship considerations notwithstanding.

Ha Long Bay

Looks like it's available now.

I heard a few weeks back about Tunney from Breaffy being on the panel, Ah Ref mentioned it in his pod which reminded me.
Not an attack on him cause I don’t know what kind of a footballer he is, more a comment on Horan - How can a guy who stays on the bench for the county final be called into the senior panel? I’m all for young lads getting experience but surely you have to be established in your own club first?
From Knockmore you’ve Seàn Holmes, involved with the U-20s and outstanding for us last year. It’s makes no sense how this lad would be involved before him. I pick Holmes cause I’ve seen him a lot but there’s bound to be loads of other examples.

It makes no sense to me

I don't know much about either player but you dont know the circumstances of why he was on the bench,he could have been carrying an injury.
I'd trust Horan.

Debating paying the full 25
Realistically though I’ll probably only watch the 2 mayo games and all the rest of our games will be televised

Who is taking his place on the breaffy team?
Is it not better to leave homes on the u-20s where he is a regular starter than to have him in the seniors not getting a game

Bunny Colvin

Got that Goalies Jersey delivered today. Class top and they even threw in a travel mug

Absolutely it is, I was using Holmes as an example of one player in the county who would appear to be better qualified to be brought into a county panel.

It’s more that I would think being a starter and a solid performer for your club team would be a prerequisite for a call up to the county panel.

Again not an attack on Tunney himself, he might turn out to be the next Keith Higgins

What is the sizing like? I'm a small in the previous kit but a medium in the kit before that.

Not an attack but it's a bit of a dig. Tunney has a Minor All Star from 2019, he was injured last year afaik, it's not as if he was plucked from the obscurity of the Breaffy bench.

Minor All Star from 2019 gets called up to senior squad has a bit of a better ring to it than Horan calls up Breaffy Sub.

As many of that Knockmore team should be getting chances imo. I don't necessarily agree that a young lad needs to be a solid performer on his club team either before getting a call up. Get them involved in the county set up nice and early, it generally takes 2 or 3 years before they're up to pace from a S&C perspective these days.

ya i tend to agree, obv Horan sees soemthing he likes, be it attitude, ability, whatever and thinks he's a good prospect so bring him in now, why not?

There’s development panels for that though, literally to make sure they don’t fall behind on S&C and are ready to go into a senior panel.

I got it in a medium and it's still loose enough despite lockdown not being kind to me. I'd say go for small.

Player fit doesn't seem to be an option for some reason on the new jersey's.

Sure he's probably only on the development panel. there were >40 players on sportsfile and we're not going to have a panel of that size for the year.

Really? Didn't realise that the Mayo games would be on TV, seeing as they were relegated. I thought it was only the top tier games being shown. That's excellent. I was a bit despondent at the thought of having to sit through the likes of Kerry, Dublin, Donegal, Tyrone etc.
I must look up the TV scheduling.

I'm in the same boat, anyone able to point me to where can you find this?

Think KM meant that all of Mayo's championship games will probably be televised.

We're more than likely playing Sligo and Leitrim in the Connacht Championship. Very unlikely both, or indeed either, of those will be televised. We should get use out of the gaa go package.
