Replying To Overdahill: "Judging by your posts you've lost a sizeable number of bets based on all your nonsense about how our veterans would waltz back into the championship 15" Where is Morgan and Burns? katser (Galway) - Posts: 2543 - 19/04/2025 15:28:40 2602765 Link
Sobering experience watching galway today we're in big trouble possibly the Joe Mcdonagh for us next year Antrim are about the only tem we have a chance against minor77 (Galway) - Posts: 270 - 19/04/2025 17:14:56 2602801 Link
Replying To PoolSturgeon: "Ah nnnnnoooooo! Just cant do that! "See how it goes." That would be a very shoddy approach to take. Game could be won and lost in the first 20 minutes with that approach. Either MOD has confidence that Mannion or Killeen will do the biz on frees or else there will be changes to the named team and Cooney or Niland will start." I agree with you but all I'm saying if this approach doesn't work he has lads on the bench that can nail frees no bother. Trump2020 (Galway) - Posts: 2483 - 19/04/2025 17:31:27 2602808 Link
Unless they put daithi at 6 and Lee in the half forward line and get rid of grealish we are in serious trouble. BigBàsMan (Galway) - Posts: 115 - 19/04/2025 17:31:54 2602809 Link
Very small Galway crowd in Nowlan today and I'd say our crowds will be very small the rest of the year after that display. Donoghue had talked about bringing supporters along - that style of play is putting people to sleep. Regardless of results the rest of the way in Leinster, there aren't going to be many interested in watch that sort of stuff. We play like a football team, trying to maintain possession in five yard gaps rather than getting the ball down the field. Wouldn't have scored a goal if we were there until next Saturday. Cathal Mannion and John Fleming were good but that was it. We gave Cian Kenny and the lad from Kerry the freedom of the park. We are completely over coached when we have the ball and lazy when we don't have it. Not a good combination. galway19 (Galway) - Posts: 868 - 19/04/2025 17:35:00 2602810 Link
Replying To minor77: "Sobering experience watching galway today we're in big trouble possibly the Joe Mcdonagh for us next year Antrim are about the only tem we have a chance against" Awful stuff, that's an average enough kilkenny team too. Looked like a league game out there rather than championship. Bon (Kildare) - Posts: 2252 - 19/04/2025 17:47:38 2602811 Link
He takes off Kileen and Mcloughlin and they our future players! C Cooney comes on scores 2pts. I wasn't inspired by the team he picked but I'll admit Galway are not in a good place The full back line are very weak. Goalkeeper doesn't know what to do with his puck outs Half back line has no leadership. For a group and management the team is riddled with confusion. katser (Galway) - Posts: 2543 - 19/04/2025 17:48:25 2602812 Link

Leinster at the moment is a poor standard. Even a clueless Galway should beat Offaly, Dublin and Wexford? katser (Galway) - Posts: 2543 - 19/04/2025 17:52:29 2602817 Link

Along time I agree with everything you've said. Spot on. I think we will struggle to get out of leinster BigBàsMan (Galway) - Posts: 115 - 19/04/2025 18:02:40 2602821 Link

Evan a struggling Galway can beat them. katser (Galway) - Posts: 2543 - 19/04/2025 18:19:56 2602835 Link
Replying To minor77: "Unfortunately I think your wrong we will struggle big time to win a game i hope I'm wrong" You think I'm wrong and you hope your wrong! A few tweaks and we will win those games but MOD needs to get this fixed rapid! katser (Galway) - Posts: 2543 - 19/04/2025 18:23:58 2602837 Link
Replying To Viking66: "Will you back Galway in the bookies against Wexford and Dublin?" No will not bet, but Galway should beat Dubs and Wexford. galwayford (Galway) - Posts: 2601 - 19/04/2025 18:25:08 2602838 Link
What is it about Galway and Connacht teams with all of the hand passing. The game is about scoring points and goals. Not about who has the most number of hand passes. galwayford (Galway) - Posts: 2601 - 19/04/2025 18:26:17 2602839 Link
Offaly giving Dublin plenty to think about... Viking66 (Wexford) - Posts: 15418 - 19/04/2025 18:29:59 2602842 Link
Henry never got a beating like this and it's a regular 12 point beating with this management team. Another short year full of excuses LoughChamps24 (Galway) - Posts: 11 - 19/04/2025 18:35:59 2602846 Link
Replying To Bon: "Awful stuff, that's an average enough kilkenny team too. Looked like a league game out there rather than championship." That's a KK team with oodles of skill, lots of experience, and lots of hurt. They're deadly dangerous. I can see them make the AIF, and anything can happen in a final. foreveryoung (USA) - Posts: 2190 - 19/04/2025 18:39:02 2602848 Link
Replying To Bon: "Awful stuff, that's an average enough kilkenny team too. Looked like a league game out there rather than championship." You are spot on..that is a bang average KK team and We made them look decent because We were terrible, the defence from Galway were bad especially full backline. Loftus D Burke E Ryan, I would have picked. katser (Galway) - Posts: 2543 - 19/04/2025 18:40:48 2602850 Link
