Mayo GAA Discussion - Part 3

DoctaDee

Welcome to the Mayo GAA discussion thread - Chapter 3, yer trotting them out quicker than a Mills & Boon Romance !.

This is one of the most active forums on Boards.ie. As a result, discussion can get quite heated. But there are certain things posters must realise are simply not OK to post:

- Personal abuse

- Rumours about players'/managers'/anyone's personal lives.

- Trolling.

- Accusations of trolling. Report a post if you suspect it to be trolling.

I don't think Vaughan has the burst of pace need at fullback, which is why I think Coen is a better option. I think Coen is a tighter marker as well and possibly Coen is better in the air.

The only negative side for Coen is that he is less experienced that Vaughan.

Either way it is a risk to leave Caff in there and a risk to put someone new in. I would be of the opinion to change him rather than do nothing. It could be a game to try someone new before Kerry, provided of course we beat Ros!!

He didn't mark too tight for second goal.......

Again, if we beat Roscommon, I think we have the tools to cope with Kerry all over the field, except at full back, where if left as is, we will be badly exposed. That battle could decide the game as it did before.

It would sort of be good manners to try to beat Roscommon first :eek:

Haha yeh jumping ahead of myself. IF we play Kerry, but agreed, it could go either way against Roscommon. In the event we beat them...

If Caff is left in there against Kerry and Donaghy does what he usually does against him, we have no-one to blame but ourselves.

We need to put a big midfielder either at full back or right on front/double marking Donaghy. Otherwise he will make plenty of hay in there.

He isn't a full back though
It's probably the most specialist position
Sure if it was just a case of throwing a big lad in we have had plenty of options

I think move back to last years system or donie
And I'd lean towards a blend of both tbh!

Higgins is fast becoming a liability which is sad to say

With his pace and the fact he is no longer offering as much defensively I think he should be one of our impact subs

He was diabolical for that last 15 minutes

Call me Al

Are they likely to.open the one or both of the upper stands? I'm looking for tickets online, since the cairde bring a friend option is shoving us into the corners, but all I'm being offered on the gaa website or supervalu are sections 326, 336 and 301.

I don't want to purchase, and be stuck with the crap view, only to have them open upper cusack on Wednesday or Thursday.
Eta we'd rather be in 736 than 336 any day of the week.

Updated now on the fixtures section of the GAA site. 4 o clock it is.

yop

Might just wander it at 4.10, sure they'll delay the game for us...

Guaranteed a crowd when Mayo and Dublin play, so theyll always have us on at the later game. Otherwise if we were on at 2pm it would be empty for the 2nd half of the Gway and Kerry game.

Thats a balls, 2 would have been ideal

4.00pm confirmed, according to midwest radio.

2 would be ideal but I also think it will be at 4. Christ traffic is going to be unreal Sunday with the 3 Connacht teams. It'll be an early morning departure I'm thinking

2 would be great, but ya I bet it will be 4. :rolleyes:

No they changed the time to TBC sat evening .........speculation is now that we are the 4pm game
Would probably make most sense as it would ensure a crowd for both games

I'm hoping for 2pm

Yes you're entrapped up there,poor Zippy has'nt a chance.

Hard to understand how Danny Kirby has fallen so far down the call to arms order.He has offered more than either party when he got his limited championship action v Derry and Sligo if I can recall.He scored a corker under the stand against Derry.Tis strange.

when did he score it? alls i rememeber is him shooting one wide.

I'm of course going to be accused of bias given the result but I think Ciaran Brannigan did a very decent job officiating.Credit where credits due.

Focused on one negative
Didn't even say who got MOTM

If James o donoghue had played like that they would never have shut up about it

Anyway I'm looking forward to falling over the line again next weekend before the big ambush later in August

They generally don't give MOTM for games they don't show.

I agree with you that the analysis is very poor. Brolly never addresses the question he is asked. He was asked about Galway and then proceeded to talk about Donegal! Sky is way ahead of them. The hurling analysts on the Sunday game are also way ahead of their football counterparts
