    He's in an all Ireland semi now pal and if ye had one forward with half his talent yed have 5 all Ireland by now

    Remember that we're only here because Cillian thought he had Walshs talent and tried to kick a free from his bad foot. Hilarious

    Horan will get plenty of stick and will likely step away but he did as well as he could.

    Mayo were probably on the wane since Newbridge in 2018 and getting to the last 8 x4 with 2 finals is a good return.

    It could take them a while to resurface again. Covid helped them in a big way in 2020/21 but their underage hasnt been as strong so a rebuild will be on the way.

    Question for Mayo fans. Who else would be the best man to take over(Besides the 2 o sheas, cillian, o connor, effin Andy Moran etc)?

    Delighted that Armagh lost out today. Dirty wee digs all day and all designed to try and get people hurt or angry and retaliate. And then the eye gouge…..

    Handlins against Tyrone, Donegal and then today. But according to McGeeney it’s all social media’s fault.

    I can'y say I was all that impressed watching Kerry today.

    It suits them down to the ground to be written off and Jack has often had the last laugh but for a county that has won 5 all ireland minors in a row they look well below what people thought they would be 3 to 4 years ago.

    Bar Clifford who is already an all time great and 2 or 3 others who are quite good they don't look the 'Golden Years 3' side that they were hyped up to be....

    Rory Gallagher and his setup must be costing Derry some money.

    That's the first smile ive managed since about the 45th minute of the Mayo game 😄

    The team has very much been rebuilt since Newbridge 2018.

    Lots retired, and plenty of new faces.

    Horan's term is over I believe so I'd expect a change.

    And fair play to him, he has rebuilt Mayo football twice.

    Today panned out as I expected.

    They never had the forwards to really win that game.

    Time will tell if the likes of Orme, Carney and Carr are true inter-county level, and hopefully Conroy and O'Donoghue can be back to full fitness for next year.

    The fight and eye gouge at the end of the Galway Armagh game is because the GAA system for dealing with such incidents is a joke. You have players getting away with red cards because of technical issues.

    This leads to fellas doing all sorts of shite because they know they will get away with it. The GAA probably can't touch the lad who did the eye gouge because he wasn't a squad member so he will get away scot free. Probably after being "cited" but getting away on apoeal

    The GAA aren't bother so the rules around redcrds and incidents so neither are the players.

    Only the GAA can change it and they don't seem to be overly bothered with the amount of loop holes in the rules.


    Get tough on the rules and punishment and watch the players fall into line or be punished properly.

    A lot ofpeople expected Kerry to make a bit of a statement this weekend did not happen would still make them favs against the Dubs if the two lads are out they will up things when they see Dublin i feel . Other semi hard to call at the moment not convinced by Galway today should have seen the game out like the real deal .Derry on a roll so maybe favs just about .

    Haha, I normally don't respond to the type of poster who goes around calling people pal but might as well let you have your moment.

    Walsh hasn't done a patch of what Cillian has done over his career but enjoy your win. It's not often ye manage to sh1t the bed in Croker and still get through. Congrats.

    It took covid to bring the split season but it had to come. The everyday club player was been screwed right left and centre



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 596 ✭✭✭Avon8

    Good God, everything you post is just miserable and negative. Why do you watch sport if this is how you go on?

    I wouldn't blame the GAA as much as others for giving it a go but it hasn't worked out really.*

    Too many games in such a short space of time at Senior and Underage has hit attendances and going up against Soccer especially has backfired.

    FWIW Soccer in April/May is way ahead of what GAA has to offer at that time. July/August is the time for GAA to take off.

    Already stories of players going off to the states for the summer so the split season won't benefit the clubs as much as people believed either.

    *Though the club scene has yet to play out so maybe it might be too early to say it just yet!
