Replying To BarneyGrant: "Did they switch over to breathless commentary on City or Villa or Town?
Wouldn't be first time." Supercharged with Anna Geary!
I was supercharged for the wrong reasons that they weren't staying on for the penalties, as I was driving along. Absolutely ridiculous!

RTE Radio 1 abandoned the Ulster semi final at the end of extra time - before the penalties! Absolutely crazy stuff. It would hardly hurt to delay subsequent scheduling. Great football this weekend anyway, in contrast with hurling. Story of the year.

Replying To CillTormoir: "Poor Ulster final but one things for certain, Loughrea won't beat that Derry team. Serious workrate" In sport I dont think you can call anything is"certain" really before it happens. Probably some Loughrea fans will feel "certain" they will win the semi final but they would be deluded too. Loughrea are a team that are usually known for their workrate too so they have a capability to match Slaughteil in that department. I imagine Loughrea will be favourites for it but a Slaughteil win certainly wouldnt surprise me.

Moycullen should be kicking themselves some horrible decision making especially in second half
As I said to fella backing Cooke motm was crazy his introduction did not help Moycullen O'Connor was a big loss
Some of shooting was kamikaze
Kelly works well going forward from 6 but defensively is not a good option I still don't know his best position as good as he is
Goalie as we have said is an issue all year
A lot of nonsense spoke about inter county abilities of some of their team
On today showing Carroll wouldn't be making Galway panel

Certainly Ben Carroll and no11 Hand displayed forward skills all through that this Moycullen outfit just do not possess. Moycullen were a better watch some years back imo. They're big (bigger than Brigids anyway), but a bit slow and predictable these days, especially going forward, relying on Cooke to bail them out with 2pointers, but that tactic failed in a big way today. Could still have won that, but missed too many chances in the first half, and put too many eggs in the Cooke 2pointer basket after HT, and none of those hatched on the day.

Brigid's regain the Connacht title after a expected fine margin competitive contest in Dr Hyde Park. Had Brigid's lost they could only blame themselves with the odd choice of directing their kick outs to smaller men towards the sideline that resulted in a few Moycullen scores and very wasteful with long range frees and 45s. Conor Hand really stood up the clear stand out player on display. Important goal by Fallon late on who had a good game also, many players/forwards in that position who take a point instead. McGrath,Dolan I thought was good also.
Two out of three Connacht club titles isn't bad could easily have been 3 from 3 our club football is in such a strong and healthy state and given the age profile should be for another few years yet.

I'd imagine all the players on the combined schools team play for their own individual school in the B, C, D, E competitions, that was the way it was in the last couple of years.

Midfield gave Moycullen the platform to win as they won 25 of the 42 kick outs. It was the accuracy in front of the posts that won the game for Brigids and lost it for Moycullen. Moycullen 46% on their shooting and 60% for Brigids.

Replying To jm25: "Yeah neither keeper impressed
Carroll the forward is quality similar to savage as I heard this week
Hand was v good cant recall seeing him for rossies" Very good game. Hand, Carroll and Stack very good for Bridget's. Moycullen goal should not have stood. Over reliance on Peter Cooke though dominating centre field without him.
We have to support Bridget's now.
If you have a player/players able to convert 2pts, it seems to me you have to move ball faster - accurate kick passes from half back line - to put those players in good position with a half second to set up shot. Instead this slow hand pass buildup virtually telegraphs your intention even if Clifford showed that no matter- a great player can avail of a half chance.

Think Cooke only got one shot off and he looked off balance taking it. Normally he scores 2 or 3 two pointers for Moycullen but Bridget's had him well covered around the arc. That said he also only played half the game. Without Cooke scoring, Moycullen need another scoring forward to step up and they don't have one really. If they still had Owen Gallagher they probably would have won that game. The tall Fionn McDonagh was a right handful for Bridget's but he's probably not going to swing over many points.

Replying To S1234: "Thank you all for arranging this so you suggesting it's fixed ? Which most likely is ha" If it was, we will take it. Sligo, London and New York as first round games for the next 3 years, great chance to get 3 connacht championship wins in 3 years, that would take us back to 94 when we had that sort of record
