Replying To PoolSturgeon: "What was that game about? I dont see any mention of it on the Galway GAA app either under fixtures or results. Though if it was played and not showing there, it wouldnt surprise me either." This weekend as in this weekend coming,the 8th I think.

Championship gets under way this weekend lads. Who are your choices for winning out the senior and the premier?? Clarinbridge will be there thereabouts, probably turloughmore, maybe Tommies or even st Thomas' have one last shot at winning tom callanan.
I can't see beyond Loughrea making it 3 in a row. Hanzy a big loss but Shane o brien is back fit and will prob spot into corner back nicely. Dylan shocks back from Oz and will prob slot into half back or half forward line., although he will have competition from Gavin maher.The introduction of forwards like jack shocks and Bobby Feeney to Vince Morgan, Darren shaughnessy, Anthony burns, Martin McManus (back fully fit), Jamie Ryan, tiernan Killeen etc I can't see any team coping with them. Roll on club champ 2026

They're overdue a few freewheeling years, if now is their time. If they achieve 3 in a row, the comparisons to top sides of the past like Sarfields, Athenry, Portumna, Thomass will be inevitable, and hopefully not unflattering.

Until they win a club all ireland they can't compare with the teams mentioned

Replying To minor77: "Until they win a club all ireland they can't compare with the teams mentioned" I agree with you there. They have to bridge that gap against ballygunner etc. they will have it all to do this year. I can see a few shocks along the way. Craughwell are building, clarinbridge are building but as the saying goes talent is not always enough. You need that bit of grit and doggedness. I would also say st Thomas' will have a bit say. I heard this year was the first year Thomas' had David burke for a league game. That's insane

Not the best game between Kinvara and Ahascaragh there in Loughrea this evening. Kinvara will be happy enough with how they competed in general but some bad wides let them down

You really are in a group of death, not sure where the bookies are getting their odds from.

Replying To Viking66: "Heard Kinvara left it behind them. You really are in a group of death, not sure where the bookies are getting their odds from." Yes I would say they will be very disappointed. Whelan and other left a fair few wide of the post and the keeper was turned over for a goal. Based on the performance, they should feel confident enough against Portumna and have a crack at Eyrecourt

If ever there is a statement "how the mighty have fallen " it could sum up Portumna!
I know it's early days in the Club Championship BUT, it already looks like Portumna will be in a Relegation battle to avoid dropping from Intermediate to 3rd tier Junior with most likely Mullagh, Killimor and Rahoon-Newcastle.
4 group bottom teams I expected to be these 4 Clubs.
Surely Rahoon-Newcastle or Killimor have to be certs for the drop? Mullagh would be best out of those 4 and will survive.
Could the once mighty Portumna drop?
They got hammered 12pts by the mighty men from Meelick-Eyrecourt, Ahasragh-Fohenagh will also hammer them and Kinvara should beat them too by a few points.

Yes it's possible but playing JC at center back for the first twenty minutes he got opened up. Scored the couple of goals near end to put some gloss on the scoreline. McLoughlin didn't start brought on after 20/25 mins don't know what's up there.
Yes I'd say relegation semifinal. Andy smith has his work cut out.
