Mayo GAA Discussion

Where am i complaining.Hennelly should never have being brought back if you ask me.

Would have to agree there. Definitely in this position more by accident than design. Andy's hand was forced in a certain way and you do get a bit of a sense that things have been made up as we went along since Connacht. I do not think the current team is what he had in mind at the beginning of the year. That said, I will be trying to enjoy the rest of the journey for as long as it lasts and hopefully some lessons will have been learned for next year and players will have come on from the experience.

Of the teams remaining to win Sam Mayo have beaten Monahan, should and could have beaten Tyrone. Tomorrow will see us up against one from Cork, Galway or Louth. I don't believe we've enough in the armoury to defeat Kerry going forward but against one of the 3 teams mentioned we can possibly beat any of them if we show up. Have no idea why the GAA can't have the draw on tonight.

Galway haven't beat Mayo in a knockout championship game since 1998.

I think we've a 36.3% chance of drawing louth or cork, while it's 27.4% for Galway.. the reason being louth cannot draw Dublin, Cork cannot draw Kerry, while Galway can get any of the 4.

In defense of Andy Moran I had a look back at our first league game this year vs Galway..

Eoin McGreal, Enda Hession, Sam Callinan, Bob Tuohy, David McBrien, Jack Carney, Ryan O’Donoghue, Jordan Flynn and Darragh Beirne started then and also against Meath.

Tommy Conroy started back then and played a huge part yesterday.

Paddy Durcan came on early in the Galway game and is starting now.

Cian McHale came off the bench and scored both times.

So there is quite a bit of continuity when you consider Coyne and McHugh were injured for that league game, Loftus was only back on the panel and Kobe was playing schools football/being eased into senior football.

So Louth or Monaghan await one of the winners in the semi final . A path has opened up for some team. Let’s hope it’s us

complaining about the bullshit Andy came out with in the interview yesterday, basically saying JL wasn’t in coz he wasn’t ready but they got him ready “lifting weights” and working with Rob Hennelly.

Lucky he just happened to be ready after the Roscommon debacle.
fine you made a call with Hennelly, it didn’t work out and you then made the right call. But why come out with this bullshit, it’s like the 3 year project nonsense after Roscommon. It’s concerning because he’s losing credibility with it.

Anyway Cork, for some bizarre reasons we might be favourites, this is the kind of game Cork win, they are not very good but when they are half expected not to win they will

Repeat pairings to be avoided in semi as well FYI

This, the majority of intercounty managers just trot out nonsense and would prefer not to do an interview if they had the option.

The Roscommon game, the 2nd half against Monaghan and the first half on Saturday, is what would concern you playing a Kerry or even a Galway. We could get another trimming before the season is out, but on the other hand we could also end up in an AI final. It's a strange season.

Any news on Darragh and Paddy?

The one team I didn't want. I fear their FF line if they get on a roll.

Is it definitely Saturday?

Any word on the injuries to Durcan,O Brien

Jordan ?

I coach underage exiled in a Galway club and one of our other coaches is good friends with one of the Galway back room team. Word is that one is Sunday at 4.
Mayo Cork and Tyrone Kerry Saturday followed by Louth Monaghan and Galway Dublin Sunday makes sense. The CCCC are involved though so sense may not come in to it

What a horrible impression to get on your visit! Hope the scumbags have absolutely no luck for that.

Was it a MH reg? I wouldn't be as quick to recommend parking there to away supporters again if that was the case.
