Replying To Drax_the_destroyer: "All fair points just the previous poster odd view saying Beirne couldn't be brought on with the U20s in action on Wednesday while Kobe played the full game.
Paddy Tally was talked up as a big addition in the media when brought in yet it was mainly ignored he was involved with Derry last year and they didn't win a league or championship game and they conceded big scores in lots of games. A was a decent coach under the old rules and has struggled under the current rules.
Andy talking about year 1 is daft. Inter county management is a results business and should Mayo make an exit before the last 8 stage and lose in a similar manner to Sunday then I don't see Moran in charge of Mayo in 2027."
Mayo will learn the hard way and they will deserve every bit of it for sucking the coolaid.
Replying To MayoDan: "You clearly missed my point again.. there was no point bringing Beirne on instead of Cillian as we were 7 down at that stage so the game was over.
Beirne probably should have replaced McHale at half time however."
If that's your point it's not a very good one again... 7 points down nowadays isn't what it use to be with the old rules.
Beirne featured in the majority of games in the league for Mayo and then to not get at least some minutes off the bench was very odd. To make matters worse Mayo got a few frees on the left hand side 2nd half that would surely be taken on by Beirne if on the field instead they were kicked short.
