Not in Dublin

The bench doesn’t inspire much confidence

Hennelly
Plunkett
Oisin Mullin !
Barrett
McCormack
Murray !
McLoughlin
Loftus
Andy
Carr
Boland

I think the team names may well start

I'd expect one of the more seasoned midfielders will be held in reserve to replace Seamie when he inevitably tires. Possibly Barrett starting instead of Coen or Vaughan

Anyone know what time gates open ?
Was going to head on early and get the carvery
But if it’s nit open till one will have to eat around I Connell street

Oisin Mullin impressed against the Galway men when few stood out but boy is this some step up.

Agreed I think the named team will start.

Or Seamie himself
EXCELLENT analysis of the kickouts from Billy Joe on podcast
It’s the lack of a coherent plan more than anything else

Embarrassing moment... but for what I think is the first time in my lifetime I don't actually recognise a particular player in the Mayo squad

Forgive me Oisin Mullin, but can anyone please give me a quick background

Don't mind that O'Connell street nonsense, Fagans have the single best carvery in Dublin - and they don't spare on the portions

Indeed looks a very handy corner back,good at breaking the line.

Gates open at 12.30.

Can play corner back or in the half back line. Very pacy and looks to have potential. Will still be U20 next year I think so surprised he's on the senior 26.

No sign of Diarmuid on the bench.:D

Lukekul

Wouldn't be Oisin's first game in croker, played in the kids game during halftime in 2013

Forecast all over the shop the last day or two. Currently looking like dry for the first match, with rain for the second.

Horan called him in after the Galway U20 game. He has serious speed and a very good player. He was down in Kerry last weekend with the team and I heard he was told he will get game time very soon.

I think he got a taste from Boyle with a shoulder during training this week

Must have been the only player Boyle tackled all week.

I remember the 85 minors had an MJ Mullin from Kilmaine. I assume that he is one of those relations that you mention.

Hopefully it'll hold off.

Bit of gaoth blowing down into the Hill.

Indeed it's a sparse enough crowd thus far although there are folks in the upper Cusack so you'd imagine there'll be in excess of 40,000.
