    Kicking some awful wides. 3 of them were sitters.

    Shane walsh is so wasteful. He always has to try something spectacular. Coulda laid off a hand pass inside but had to delay and then try a stupid kick through a bunch of Kildare players. It's infuriating.
    The 2 shots from either sideline were so difficult they looked like glory shots.
    He really needs to use his ability to open up space and find others.

    Why the hell are you trying to catch that?... unbelieveable.

    Like last week we should be well ahead but are guilty of some very basic errors. We are also happy to concede 50m of space just so we can have numbers at our own 45 but seem to think leaving loose men around our 45 is ok.
    Can't see us surviving in division 1 with the naive way we play.

    .

    Actually thought that was a good idea. Galway forward would have been clean through on goal. Just didn't get enough height on the pass to clear the defender.

    Sometimes you gotta speculate to accumulate!

    I know what you're saying but there was a simpler pass on that he could have played

    Some very poor wides, we do create chances, armstrong is class, give him the ball and he will make something happen.

    Would be great to see Meehan on for 10 minutes at the end.

    Probably should have gone in 3 or 4 points up at the break there. Might end up regretting those horrendous wides.

    Brannigan's shot selection is not the best.

    We haven't even copped on to the fact that all our goalkeepers kickouts are sliced and spin from left to right yet we insist on attacking the kickout head on rather than arriving from the right making the catch 10 times easier

    Three points from headless kick outs.

    Walsh is just stunting our growth.

    The fact we got promoted with this rubbish shows there's quality there.

    Sick to the teeth of seeing it as it would take about two training sessions to sort.

    Tell us how you really feel about kick outs...

    This is fierce frustrating. So many wides. Two more off the post. Two goal chances wasted. Shot selection has been poor.

    Worse that no one bothered following up the two off the post either

    Kildare uncontested kick out... point.

    Long kick out, lost... Kildare point.

    Ffs.

    The second in particular was begging for a full forward to arrive.

    Off the post I mean

    Going for glory when a pass would have had it in the back of the net.

    Those 2 hawkeyes were the most obvious point and wide I've seen go upstairs. You'd wonder what those umpires are looking at when they've only one job to do!

    Walsh has an awful habit of dropping shots short.

    I think he's put three to the goalie and one that went wide but was short too.

    Much better this half defensively, getting in front of their man a lot more.

    Yes. Couple of really good pieces of defending
