Further details of McStay's backroom team.
Niamh Fitzpatrick in to the set-up again, she was brought in by Rochford before (shortly after she tragically lost her sister Dara in the Rescue 116 helicopter off Belmullet)
I think Evan Regan spent the summer in the US doing nutritionist work with the UFC.
No news yet on the extent of the injury. Going for a scan later in the week.
Any word on COC injury
Was very surprised by the manner of Westport's win. Got the highlights and they seem to be flying.
Group 2 is set up for a great final round. Again only got the highlights but McStay looked very good.
Was at the Breaffy Balla game. A fairly poor game really. Balla didn't come with much of a fight or anything really and Breaffy were always at arms length from early on. Aidan firmly in at full forward now, worked ok but better teams will have it sussed out. Livingston keeping his place in goal ahead of Robbie. Belmullet in danger of an early exit.
Was at the Knockmore game yesterday, Ballina were deserved winners in fairness, beat us pretty much all over the field. It seemed like we had weathered the early storm and were generally on top (5-4 up I think) when we conceded a brutal goal from a long ball. Ballina got a 2nd early in the 2nd half and while we pulled it back to 2 points at one stage, an excellent 3rd goal (created by McStay who was v good) finished it. Considering the results last weekend and Aughamore hammering Ballagh on Sat evening, I definitely didn't expect this sort of result but Ballina were first to every breaking ball and were generally fired up for it. I thought Dylan Thornton, McStay, Frank Irwin & Swannie were best for Ballina while Dempsey (who had been poor enough in our previous couple of games) was one of the only Knockmore players to get the better of his man. The only real consolation we can take from it is that Ballina's need was greater today and hopefully we'll show greater resolve if we're to meet again later in the championship
Those results leave the group wide open now with all four sides knowing that they need a result to get through to the QFs.
Westport clear favourites now after giving Ballintubber a good trimming, no more than our own game, I thought that'd be a lot closer
Latest odds from Paddy Power. Impressive win for Westport over the Tubber.
Good win for Ballina over the County Champions. Only caught the second half but McStay very impressive for Ballina from the part of the game I saw.
Westport full value for their win over Ballintubber too. Very strong and full of pace going forward. They’ll be hard to stop this year I think.
Now that she's gone, next year is definitely our year!!!
It was inevitable that someone would come out with this stat……
If anyone wants a trip down memory lane! Cormac Reilly has decided this is a good time to speak about Limerick 2014!
Looking forward to the Knockmore Westport final already G&R
Not so sure Westport will be there!
Was at the Knockmore v Aughamore game yesterday, oddly similar to the game last year, close enough in the first half and then we put on a big push early in the second to effectively win the game with a couple of goals (excellent finish from Orme for the 2nd one) and it petered out as a contest towards the end.
I thought Conor Byrne & Ross Egan were decent for Aghamore; Pearse R, Shane & Darren McHale & Adam Naughton probably best for us along with Kevin Mc who was MOTM for me. Two big pluses for us was King starting for the first time since the Connacht final and Darren McHale starting also.
Looking forward to playing Ballina this weekend, Westport v Ballintubber should be good on Sat evening
Current bookmaker odds:
Balllintubber 3/1
Westport 3/1
Knockmore 5/1
Castlebar 6/1
Breaffy 15/2
Ballina 9/1
Garrymore 10/1
I don't think there were enough draws this weekend 😂
Ah Ref had hinted towards a bit of an upset in that game I think.
Despite being well ahead at half time, I hear Castlebar were lucky enough to hang on in the second half. Paddy Durcan had to go off at HT and unfortunately his brother didn't start, out for the season with a bad ligament injury afaik.
I was keen to see how they got on, they're a very young side and a bit light imo. A tough win like that might stand to them though.
So to help with the scoring, I reckon I have 32 points from the weekend just gone.

Taken from the Ah Ref Whatsapp
Huge win for Boorishule in Kiltane, f×××ed up a couple of accumulators for me
Ballina v Ballagh draw. Talk about internal discipline problems, Captaincy moved to Dylan Thornton. It's going to make the group wide open.
Huge wins for Westport and Garrymore
Hilarious for you to talk about posting histories bud. Have you seen the pathetic nonsense you posted about covid for the last two years? I was certain accounts like yours that humiliated themselves would delete but clearly not in your case, some people have no shame. I can understand how you engage with toxic tim content anyway, two people the wrong side of middle age trying to be relevant. Get a life pal
Iam the same minus the pints cant edtied it
Mightn't be in the spirit of the game but a few pints on board and can't seem to be able to format things on the phone.
In the interest of being involved... and in the hope of being sober next week, I'll predict a draw in every match if allowed 😂

Great piece of nostalgia
But again, like Sean Flannigan smoking as he held up the cup it drives home the reality that it was so so long ago that Mayo won it.
The people with good memories of the event are in their late 70s plus.
As seasons go by and it's not won their number decrease and the numbers of proud Mayo fans that pass away without ever seeing it won increases.
It ok for me, I'm 50, I might have another 25 years in me, but 1996 was 26 years ago, time is flying and winning is no closer.
Sorry if I depressed anyone.
Took a photo of this in Dundalk railway station. Train ticket to Dublin for the All Ireland final of 1950. Nostalgia eh....
He really is a flare up the ar$e type guy
There are plenty of reasonably entertaining accounts out there, pick another one.
The clown was a glory-seeking bandwagon hopper.
Offered nothing. He's been shown for what he actually is.
Let him hop on board the Engerland WC supporters bus, they're more his style. That's his level.
Claremorris v Breaffy - DRAW
Balla v Belmullet - DRAW
