How did the minor go lads?

Bad night at the office

Mayo 0-11 Galway 2-12

Galway well deserving of their win.Struggled up front all night.

Gabriel Irwin's son Frank started inside at full forward and David Brady's nephew Dylan Thornton started i lar na pairce.

All the star performers on the Galway team,their number 8 James McLaughlin was immense.Similar in style to Peter Cooke.Absolutely cleaned us out in the middle.

Number 14 Tomas Culhane tormented us scoring 1-5,similar in style and build to Michael Daly.

We can still progress if Sligo beat Roscommon.

Anybody hear we lost to the rebels last weekend?

A senior challenge? i think they (the rebels) played Roscommon last weekend in a challenge and won.

Yes that's what I heard tonight but I'm not too sure it was not more than mere speculation.

I'd given it some credence as the supporter involved appeared very knowledgeable re Mayo GAA.

I believe Cork have been flying in challenge games, they beat Dublin in a game played a few weeks back in tipperary, they also beat Galway around the same time

It's obviously impossible to know what type of teams were out but it does look like they are at least taking things seriously again

Interestingly enough the lad is actually from Kildare. His father is from Galway so he's opted to play for Galway but I think his home club is Clane in Kildare. He's a talent alright.

Certainly not
Short at midfield as it is

What is a regular collar bone injury, minimum 2 months out ?

Didn't hear it... Connacht Telegraph put up a picture of him and Conor Loftus yesterday opening an ebs branch in Castlebar. Looked fine then so unless it just happened yesterday evening.

Would be a disaster if true.

glack

Apparently happened at training last night. Sounding like it’s true.

RedDevil55

Ah well, 2020 is a new year

PressRun

It is true as far as I know.

seligehgit

Yikes hard to find any positivity atm.

I did hear all other injured parties were fit for action..Cillian,Fionn and Donie.

eastmayo

It's a disaster if true....what is already a tricky game for us.

PressRun

I mean, it seems to be all over the county at this point, so I think its true. Tbh we were always one injury away from disaster in that area. I'm guessing diarmuid will be moved into the middle but I dont know of that's sustainable.

Barlett

Yeah it’s confirmed now. Big blow, would probably move DOC to midfield & get Cillian into full forwards with McLoughlin coming back out

Hopefully Vaughan is fit
Diarmuid should be left in half forward line
He gets moved around too much
Needs a run in his own position

We are in trouble now though imo
One fully fit midfielder
And I’m not convinced Cillian will be fit this year either

naughto

Yep disaster is not the word does diamurd go back in midfield

Loafing Oaf

SOS to SOS!:P

seligehgit

4-8 weeks recovery time.:(

Always_Running

A big blow to lose a player is such fine form. Seamus O'Shea and Donal Vaughan will somewhat soften the blow and it looks like Cillian O'Connor will be back for the Down game.

I'd agree about Diarmuid, our forwards are better with him there. He seems to ghost in for a goal chance every game so don't want to lose that.

Might be a risk, but I'd love to see Mikey Murray get a run in midfield. He's a similar style of player to Mattie and from what I hear, has been impressing in training since he was brought in. Vaughan or Seamie would do a job there too of course.

That is a tough blow. Lad was having a great year.
If it`s a broken collar bone, 6 weeks would be the minimum I imagine.
