Mayo were still going strong against same Galway team with a man less
Were much stronger than Derry and to a lesser extent cork in second period of extra time
Much stronger than Clare second half
I won't bother going back over the last few years but mayo were on a par with Dublin fitness wise
No way Roscommon were
As for the age thing mayo have a fair few around that mark too and the likes of Cillian is only 25 Aidan 26 maybe 27
3\4 tipping 30 bring experience Roscommon dont have
Roscommon will not edge mayo on fitness
If they are to win it will be due to their super duper forwards and their backs all having the games of their life's to contain Mayo's misfiring forwards
Yes they were fitter than Clare, Cork and Derry but that's what you would expect with a team as good as Mayo. 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 years0 -

We will find out Sunday I guess but I'll be suprised if fitness is a decisive factor in Roscommon's Favour
I'd be more worried about McStays game plan0 -

Had to hear it to believe it. What great managers and coaches all seem to have is a humble outlook on their roles not such cockiness0 -
