I never said they weren't fitter than them teams but they did struggle, I wouldn't say they were going strong at the end of them three games. I don't think you should look at the past few years because Mayo are moving on and they are not as good as they once were. Roscommon were not as fit Mayo up until last year. I do think they are fitter this year, since alot of new names are on the team this year that are very talented, fit players. Roscommon have players around the 30 mark too, but overall they are a younger team. They do not have the experience Mayo have, especially in Croke Park. In saying that, a lot of the younger players are no stranger to Croke Park having won many minor games there over the last few years

Hey there folks. Just a heads up about parking in Maynooth and getting the train into Drumcondra; Parking at Maynooth train station is fairly limited. What some people do is park at Greenfield Shops or at the Glenroyal hotel. I advise AGAINST this now. I live close to Greenfield in Maynooth and the last time Mayo were playing in Croker, a lot of cars parked at the Greenfield Shops were clamped. The spaces are for customers only and APCOA went to town on cars parked there for the last Mayo match. I wouldn't want any of my fellow Rossies having to deal with APCOA after the match. I can't speak for the parking at the Glenroyal hotel, but there is a Spar shop there and it could be a similar story with clamping. Leixlip Louisa Bridge has a decent sized car park if you get there early. Not sure how much it costs, but it's cheaper than a clamp removal!
