Moran,Reape would all be starting.

Not sure both of these are nailed on. Could be either/or at full forward.

Does anybody know why Reape was playing for his club instead of being in Kerry?? Working if he's not around this weekend either. Might be on the bench

Dont think he's good enough for this level tbh. Very good Intermediate player but doesn't always work making the jump to county.

According 2 program ....no Andy. Boyle Keegan or Higgins.

km79 · 24-03-2019 2:29pm

Just seen Higgins and Andy in the stand
A win is a bonus to Horan is the way it’s being approached which is fair enough

24-03-2019 2:51pm

Is this on tv at all?

No

That’s the best half of league football in Castlebar in years

Not sure how the umpire /ref decided on a yellow for the foul on clarke
It was a red or nothing
So a red

Looks like it wouldn't matter anyway the way things are going in Galway v Tyrone.:(

24-03-2019 4:02pm

Galway going very well

Does that put galway thru to the final, or is it points difference?

Yep, goes to head to head record if teams are level on points.

Tyrone have closed the gap, so this is still hypothetical.:P

Loafing Oaf · 24-03-2019 4:13pm

Monaghan are down to 14 men but have scored a goal so both games in the balance.

Tyrone have gone ahead now, 2-9 to 1-11

Loafing Oaf · 24-03-2019 4:32pm

Mayo's lead down to 3 points:eek:

Loafing Oaf · 24-03-2019 4:41pm

Wins for Mayo, Tyrone and Kerry so it's a Mayo v Kerry final.:D

Great win in the end. Croker next:D:D:D.

seligehgit · 24-03-2019 4:53pm

Some of the football at times we played today was sublime.A real squad performance.

Great to heading to Croker next Sunday.

km79 · 24-03-2019 4:54pm

Should be quiet in here tonight

Nobody cruising in for a stir

Galway fairly blew it. Conceded a penalty and 2 daft goals.

Bunny Colvin · 24-03-2019 5:08pm

Never in doubt

Good game of football, some lovely scores from both sides. Kev Mc, Boland and Harrison were excellent.

Nothing to fear next week.

brendanwalsh · 24-03-2019 5:14pm

Is it a triple header next week ?

Is it not a Division one double header in hurling and football?

Throw Aidan O Shea into the mix too.

His foot passing outside of one stray was exceptional.

A lovely score to boot.

Silent night · 24-03-2019 5:26pm

Hurling on Saturday

He's really leading by example these days. That ball he hit to Coen for the first goal was excellent. Set up the second and hit a fine score himself.

PressRun · 24-03-2019 5:35pm

Great to hear about the win. Hope we really go all out for the title now. I'm sure they'll be up for it.

RedDevil55 · 24-03-2019 5:37pm

Great first half. Boland and McLoughlin were top class, Aidan as well. I felt Darren Coen showed well at full forward, won a lot of ball. I think he's worth sticking with.

2nd half was frustrating to watch. We always seem to struggle dealing with having a big lead. Matty Ruane going off was a big moment. Jason Gibbons gave away the ball 3 times when he replaced him.

Hopefully Clarke is okay, but it didn't look good.

Delighted for Fergal Boland,he's oft been an easy target with his lack of physicality but he was very involved today most especially in that first half when we struggling for scores.

None of scores were gimmes.

Darren Coen impressed as a target man and is always looking to pull the trigger so to speak.

He's a confidence in his ability.

Jason Gibbons didn't get into the game at all.

Robbie Hennelly's kickouts were outside of his initial one very good.

Hurling final is fixed for 2 next Sunday.

Mayo v Kerry at 16.00.

PressRun · 24-03-2019 6:34pm

What happened Clarke?

Carol25 · 24-03-2019 6:43pm

Delighted with the performance by Mayo! Especially when you think of possible championship starters yet to come into this team. A league final is just what this team needs, win or lose. The experience will benefit the younger members of the panel hugely. Mayo can beat Kerry if they do their homework, keep tight at the back and have the confidence and hunger to get over the line.

I’d like to know as well. Lots of people mentioning it online but no explanation yet.

Whats a full list of players to come back into Mayo team, anyone have a breakdown please?

Yes, interesting to hear that a couple of big names didn't play. A great game for younger players to come through.

I'm looking forward to this final. It'll be a very different game to what went on down in Tralee, I'd say. Kerry might have a stronger team for it?

Didn't get a great view but he was at stretch catching a ball that was hit into the square and got clattered. Monaghan player ended up getting a yellow and Clarke was taken off. Hopefully it's not serious.

My bad. Division 1 Football Final confirmed for Sunday at 4pm. Will be preceded by a hurley stick ball game between two counties.

kerry37 · 24-03-2019 6:58pm

Delighted to see Mayo get there today. Love a good Kerry v Mayo battle in croker. Looking forward to it.

Other than COC I'm not sure there are any currently unavailable players guaranteed to walk back into the team. .

David Clarke appeared to be caught late by Darren Hughes after he caught a dropping effort from Conor McManus.

Apparently he was out on the pitch after the game which is a good sign. My first thought was that he dislocated his shoulder.

naughto · 24-03-2019 7:16pm

Match at 4 will there be special trains

irishgeo · 24-03-2019 8:39pm

seemed ok going off on the trolley , not holding any in particular. Might been a head injury, the physio was signalling pretty quick for a sub to be made. i thought he got a knee in the back but maybe he was caught in the face.

some great long range scores today , nice to see rather than the usual handpass it to death trying to get closer to goal.

Perhaps but I wouldn't fear them one bit, this is a superb opportunity to grab some national silverware

Two super wins in a row now, hopefully we can truly consign that Dublin debacle to just a horrible one off performance. In fairness the Galway game was desperate conditions.

It happened in line with me
He was caught with forearm/elbow
Expect he is concussed
Not quite sure how the ref/umpires decided it was yellow not red

think the red he did issue was soft, might be trying to make up for the mistake on the Clarke incident.

Id have given them the opposite way around as well

The red given was directly in front of me, and in my opinion it was a blatant quick elbow in the head as they went for the ball.
It was quick as lightening when he did it, but it was definitely done with bad intent. And the 2 Monaghan supporters beside us thought the same.
