Replying To katser:  "Wonder will the "Galway supporter" travel all the way to Wexford with his maroon hat and then decide to pop into Paddy Power before throw in and back Wexford in the bookies.......hmmmmm?"
Will definitely be there Katser. It will depend on the handicap the bookies offer. If they give me Wexford +15 or something mad like that of course I will take it while still supporting Galway.

Anyone know what's the stroy on Rory Burke from last week and the likelihood of him playing this week?

Galwayford was at the match. Thought Galway team looked smaller in comparison to the bigger Dubs. Dublin physically stronger in difficult conditions. Galway a lot of hand passing with very little to show, just wides. Galway full back line looked weak and also our full forward line did not score any goals. Dublin could have won by more tbh.

You can lose the next game and still bring Liam back to Galway. And even if you lose the next game you might still get the chance to hang out with Bob for a year depending on other results.

I dont think you will lose the next game though.

I don't think we will lose our next game either to be honest.

Newsflash to any Judas with maroon hat......Wexford are a whopping 5/1 to beat Galway or tasty handicap of 7.

Great credit to the lads for sticking in there. 10 points down at one stage in the second half and still 5 behind approaching injury time.
An excellent game played by both teams considering the conditions. Both sides left it all out there and some of them could hardly move in the second half of extra-time.
Some fine hurlers on that team and a good mix of physicality and skill.

The team that won in 2017 was physically imposing. Our team now looks smaller. Especially the full back line. The Dublin full forward rampaged through it. Hope Mr Donoghue can rectify this. Wexford are no pushovers. And Galway will have to be at their best to beat them. Regards any final, the Dubs sadly look a lot better than us.

Hopefully the 20s can get the job done later on for a 2 peat in the Leinster Championship.

Thinking ahead to Sunday I'd go with
1. Darach Fahy
2. Ronan Glennon
3. Cillian Trayers
4. Darren Morrisey
5. Padraig Mannion
6. Daithi Burke
7. Gavin Lee
8. Cian Daniels
9. Tom Monaghan
10. Darragh Neary
11. Cathal Mannion
12. Rory Burke
13. Jason Rabbitte
14. Conor Whelan
15. Colm Molloy

Not sure if Niland will make it, looked uncomfortable on Saturday, hopefully Rory Burke is back if not then Tiernan Killeen would be in for me.

Bit harsh on Killeen I would say. Did you seen Colm Molloy against Kildare? He breaks down the passing game for his own score and was totally out of it physically. Wexford will be physical. Hopefully Burke will be back and I see Niland is not named on u20 panel tonight so that doesn't look good.
