Mayo GAA Discussion

My point was topping the group and avoiding the play off game is a better position to be in Éamonn Fitzmaurice made a similar point the other day.

They were beaten by a very average Kildare team in Newbridge not too long ago - it was recognised that a heavy run of games and injuries picked up along the way were a large factor as to why the team couldn't rally in extra time. They want to avoid coming third, and potentially having an away game against any of the opposition that I name, which could be a potential banana skin for the Mayo team. And incurs extra travel, which they could do without, considering the quarter final is on the following week.

We are assuming that Kerry will top the group. On that basis, I feel it is crucial that Mayo come second if they want a continued run towards Sam. If they come third, and have to play the likes of Tyrone or Armagh in their home grounds, it will be a tough ask, and then to rally in a quarter final the following week. And God knows how many little knocks they will pick up along the way.

I would have thought if it was being streamed as a subscription service you at least would not be subjected to adds!

O’Connor yellow for the crime of daring to touch Clifford. Was a foul just about

Yep, should have buried the second one especially, was a very poor effort.

If Kerry are as loose in the second half Conroy could have an impact

That’s a statement win

It’s almost as if there were mitigating circumstances for the Rossie loss

Kerry are completely and utterly dependant on Clifford. If he gets injured they are done . Simple as that .

Ourselves and Galway are on a huge collision course this summer I believe …….

Should have hammered them out the gate really, but will take it. Eoghan working on his shooting is good.

Semi final is open draw

Made good use to the 6 week break, lost challenges recently I understand but losing them probably was a blessing in disguise for Mayo to be fully focused this afternoon. Going to take a very good team to beat Mayo in the form they showed this afternoon.

Open draw but I believe repeat pairings are avoided if possible?

Time for our fans to channel their own thoughts after watching games, instead of listening to TV channels & media pundits who big up certain teams in order to gain click$ off those who are gullible enough to buy them.

Just to re-in-force it to those who remain scarred from past failures via mis-management.

Enjoy the weekend folks 👌

Great win today, couldn’t help notice the media hype beforehand re Kerry were going to win based on nothing really. Mayo were written off very easily. They’re a very well organised outfit with the current management team. Get a funny feeling Galway are standing in our way later in the championship. Dublin could cause us bother but besides Mayo, Galway are the ones to watch I think…
