Very defeatist on Shamrock Gaels considering the defending Connacht champions was taken out by the Gales. MoyculIen are favourites for this game and the Connacht championship but should be very cautious for what is a banana skin game for them here.

Two large enough defeats today for our county champions and as I predicted a few weeks ago I think Mullinabreena will suffer the same fate. Kinda puts our club championships into perspective a bit. Perhaps should consider dropping down to 8 teams in Inter and senior to make inter and junior more competitive.

It was never going to be a banana skin. That's why they have Currid with them. In truth Gaels were dismal. Every facet of their game was miles off. An excellent opportunity to make progress in Connacht was easily swatted away by a Moycullen team that didn't even hit top gear. Not for the first time their sideline was baffling. The Moycullen no 13, a big mobile lad was marked by one of the smallest Gaels players. He made hay in that first half and scored 4 points. Shane Deignan did cause a lot of problems in the first half for Moycullen and Lee had a good second half but Quinn didn't get a sniff of a 2 pointer either from frees or play. Their best player was once again Ciaran Kenny. Hard to figure out why he failed to make any impression with the Sligo U.20 team over the last few years. It was a great year for the Gaels within the county, but they needed to show up today and stamp their authority . It was a great chance wasted and it could be years before the opportunity presents itself again.
