Big win by Craughwell today. Some finish to the game. Some really good scores today. Young leen was really good for Craughwell as was john cooney. I say we all thought sarsfields had the game after their last goal but Craughwell got themselves back into a great position and gave sarsfields the knockout blow. On another note never seen so many backroom staff getting sent off before. Oranmore turlough game was good up to the 50th minute when turlough took over the game completely. Oranmore were unlucky not to get the goal that would have brought them back to within a point of turlough,for turlough to go down and score another goal to make it 7. Oranmore were bet by the better team today . They had serious momentum in the group stages and maybe the loss to tommies knocked them back a small bit.Oranmore are an up and coming team probably lacked that killer instinct after getting into such a good position at the start but that will come in time. Rory Burke is one for the future and hopefully can nail down a spot with galway in 2026. Off_the_post (Galway) - Posts: 20 - 05/10/2025 06:57:28 2638495 Link
St Thomas's left it late. Hard luck to Tommy Larkins. Well done to Beagh and Kinvara. Craughwell and Sarsfields was great. Too bad someone had to lose. Hard luck to Ballinderreen but there's no stopping Cathal Mannion. SouthGalway (Galway) - Posts: 44 - 05/10/2025 15:50:01 2638531 Link
Larkin's well worth their place in the quarter-finals based on today's showing. A heartbreaking way to lose, but fair play to Thomas's. Some brilliant games already this weekend, with last puck goals winning two of the quarters. WanPintWin (Galway) - Posts: 2579 - 05/10/2025 16:39:48 2638533 Link

Hard luck to Ballinderreen but there's no stopping Cathal Mannion." Error from Larkins really that handed it to Thomas's at the end. It looked like Larkins had all 6 defenders sucked in for the refs throw in. If they had only kept their shape and had a couple of defenders goalside of the ruck they'd probably have prevented the goal. PoolSturgeon (Galway) - Posts: 2079 - 05/10/2025 16:48:16 2638536 Link

Very true but Thomas's had three bad wides in a row prior to the last second goal. Funny thing is I didn't hear Victor Manzos name at all until that last second goal. Exciting stuff.

Crazy match between Loughrea and Clarenbridge. Teirnan Killeen is a beast. Sad for the Bridge but Loughrea finished the stronger team. SouthGalway (Galway) - Posts: 44 - 05/10/2025 17:26:15 2638546 Link
Loughrea showed what champions are made of in that second half. BigBàsMan (Galway) - Posts: 194 - 05/10/2025 17:41:37 2638548 Link

Replying To BigBàsMan: "Loughrea showed what champions are made of in that second half." They sure did. That last 10 minutes was all Loughrea. Teirnan Killeen was unreal. SouthGalway (Galway) - Posts: 44 - 05/10/2025 17:48:11 2638552 Link
Replying To SouthGalway: "Craughwell v St Thomass Turloughmore v Loughrea Great matches ahead." Tough loss today for Tommy Larkins and could it get worse by losing the JHC B and JHC C Finals too! Could Loughrea win the triple..Senior, JHC A and JHC E Finals! P.S.......hardluck sarsfields next year isn't far away!!! katser (Galway) - Posts: 2731 - 05/10/2025 17:55:32 2638554 Link

When he starts looking like a beast v Kilkenny, we'll agree with you. Pope_Benedict (Galway) - Posts: 4425 - 05/10/2025 21:21:00 2638581 Link
Replying To Pope_Benedict: "When he starts looking like a beast v Kilkenny, we'll agree with you." Other than Cathal Mannion none of the Galway team are at that standard. SouthGalway (Galway) - Posts: 44 - 05/10/2025 22:39:21 2638589 Link
I thought Katser claimed his club as Turloughmore? Blackcoatsoffthefield (Galway) - Posts: 16 - 05/10/2025 23:04:20 2638591 Link
Replying To BigBàsMan: "You called it." Pity he's not a beast when he has the Galway jersey on - more like a pet lamb :( Cathal Mannion unreal again yesterday. Chalk and cheese compared to Killeen. John Doe (Galway) - Posts: 249 - 06/10/2025 07:43:47 2638602 Link
Replying To Pope_Benedict: "When he starts looking like a beast v Kilkenny, we'll agree with you." Thankfully he's only 22. A good 10 years left to make his mark. Plethora of young talent coming through the Loughrea ranks. BigBàsMan (Galway) - Posts: 194 - 06/10/2025 08:19:38 2638603 Link
Replying To Pope_Benedict: "When he starts looking like a beast v Kilkenny, we'll agree with you." Might not have been Kilkenny but it was Galways centre back whom was marking him !! CyrilFarrell99 (Galway) - Posts: 4 - 06/10/2025 09:02:57 2638606 Link
