Looks like it wouldn't matter anyway the way things are going in Galway v Tyrone.:(

Does that put galway thru to the final, or is it points difference?

Yep, goes to head to head record if teams are level on points.

Tyrone have closed the gap, so this is still hypothetical.:P

Monaghan are down to 14 men but have scored a goal so both games in the balance.

Galway fairly blew it. Conceded a penalty and 2 daft goals.

Never in doubt

Good game of football, some lovely scores from both sides. Kev Mc, Boland and Harrison were excellent.

Nothing to fear next week.

Is it a triple header next week ?

Is it not a Division one double header in hurling and football?

Throw Aidan O Shea into the mix too.

His foot passing outside of one stray was exceptional.

A lovely score to boot.

Silent night

Hurling on Saturday

He's really leading by example these days. That ball he hit to Coen for the first goal was excellent. Set up the second and hit a fine score himself.

Great to hear about the win. Hope we really go all out for the title now. I'm sure they'll be up for it.

Great first half. Boland and McLoughlin were top class, Aidan as well. I felt Darren Coen showed well at full forward, won a lot of ball. I think he's worth sticking with.

2nd half was frustrating to watch. We always seem to struggle dealing with having a big lead. Matty Ruane going off was a big moment. Jason Gibbons gave away the ball 3 times when he replaced him.

Hopefully Clarke is okay, but it didn't look good.

Delighted for Fergal Boland,he's oft been an easy target with his lack of physicality but he was very involved today most especially in that first half when we struggling for scores.

None of scores were gimmes.

Darren Coen impressed as a target man and is always looking to pull the trigger so to speak.

He's a confidence in his ability.

Jason Gibbons didn't get into the game at all.

Robbie Hennelly's kickouts were outside of his initial one very good.

Hurling final is fixed for 2 next Sunday.

Mayo v Kerry at 16.00.

What happened Clarke?

Delighted with the performance by Mayo! Especially when you think of possible championship starters yet to come into this team. A league final is just what this team needs, win or lose. The experience will benefit the younger members of the panel hugely. Mayo can beat Kerry if they do their homework, keep tight at the back and have the confidence and hunger to get over the line.

Yes, interesting to hear that a couple of big names didn't play. A great game for younger players to come through.

I'm looking forward to this final. It'll be a very different game to what went on down in Tralee, I'd say. Kerry might have a stronger team for it?

Didn't get a great view but he was at stretch catching a ball that was hit into the square and got clattered. Monaghan player ended up getting a yellow and Clarke was taken off. Hopefully it's not serious.
