Anyone seen anything of the u20's so far? Not managed to get to either games so far. TheBishop (Galway) - Posts: 287 - 23/02/2023 08:41:57 2459828 Link
Replying To Pope_Benedict: "If Mr. Silke was working as a bricklayer, banker, teacher, taxi driver, gravedigger, male stripper etc, I think it highly unlikely that you'd be providing superfluous information regarding his occupation or activities down under."

Pope, I think if if doctors are working down under, they preferred to be called gynecologists The_DOC (Galway) - Posts: 738 - 23/02/2023 15:10:47 2459903 Link
Congratulations to Roisin Leonard for being the first intercounty lady to kick over a 45 in competition and praise to the ladies game making it 2pt kick. All you teams who use their goalkeeper to kick 45's take note. also the mens game should take notice and reward a kicked pt from outsiide the 45 should be a 2 pt play it would make alot more sense than "themark"now in operation fishpond (Galway) - Posts: 89 - 23/02/2023 15:37:59 2459906 Link
Development squad has been created in the background for Galway with a separate management team, pulling lads from clubs around the county and previous panel members, I wonder could we see any additions to the main panel this year?

What are the thoughts on the team for Sunday. I think he will go the same as last week but with Sweeney pushing for a spot. I think he may give R Finnerty another week and start him on the bench. GDL (Galway) - Posts: 777 - 24/02/2023 11:03:00 2459976 Link
Can't see him starting same full forward line doubt Eoin Finnerty start no. Score in 2 matches Ian Burke 1 score so he definitely start …… he top scorer in full forward line ,,, Sean Kelly and Jack Glynn have got same Kickitout (Galway) - Posts: 968 - 24/02/2023 11:25:14 2459978 Link
Donegal now fighting for survival. So, I believe they'll be really up for this one. In the game v Kerry they showed their true ability by coming back to edge it. McBrearty is a huge loss, but I feel their young talent will come of age on Sunday. Our half-back line needs to start contributing more scores (2 points min. from wing backs). A draw for me...

Who is over this development panel and who is in it? The first I heard of it, to be honest with you Jellybaby (Dublin) - Posts: 358 - 24/02/2023 12:55:37 2459998 Link
I'd be more concerned about our full forward line scoring or not scoring ,,, Kickitout (Galway) - Posts: 968 - 24/02/2023 13:29:38 2460002 Link
Replying To Kickitout: "I'd be more concerned about our full forward line scoring or not scoring ,,," That aside, if you look at the "Great" half-backs e.g. Dr. Jack came on for Dublin v Cork and cut through for a great point. John (Investment manager) had a cut at a few chances - missed, but you can be sure he'll be nailing them come champo. My point is the more potential scoring threats you have, the bigger the headache for defences, therefore, All should be scoring more then. Dylan (director) has all the attributes of a great half-back - gets into good shooting positions, but more often than not, handpasses into corner, and off home he goes..

Replying To GDL: "What are the thoughts on the team for Sunday. I think he will go the same as last week but with Sweeney pushing for a spot. I think he may give R Finnerty another week and start him on the bench." Strong enough starting team to win against a struggling Donegal team. As i said before now is the time for Sweeney to claim a starting spot. A win on Sunday will give the opportunity of reaching the final. Shane Walsh expected to feature against Monaghan and Comer has a target to feature in round 6,7. Yondu (UK) - Posts: 845 - 25/02/2023 12:28:32 2460101 Link

Your own Roscommon team are going very well also Yondu! tommy k (Galway) - Posts: 3470 - 26/02/2023 10:54:24 2460202 Link
Replying To tommy k: "Your own Roscommon team are going very well also Yondu!" Roscommon is on your mind for some bizarre reason. Are you in Letterkenny today like i am awaiting this match or will you be watching the match on Galway Bay FM again and posting up snide remarks afterwards?

It could be a tight affair 2 day Galway prob need score 1-10 or around that ,so hopefully they can get min 4 scores from full forward line from play Kickitout (Galway) - Posts: 968 - 26/02/2023 12:07:48 2460213 Link
Gleeson experiment surely has to end now. Comically bad. Marooned (Galway) - Posts: 2304 - 26/02/2023 13:04:54 2460225 Link
Ht observation,, Galway definitely must have worse kickouts in any division not a clue what they at , full forward line definitely worse in country 1 point in 2 half matches,, Kickitout (Galway) - Posts: 968 - 26/02/2023 13:14:12 2460228 Link
All of the home support were left confused as to how Donegal was awarded that penalty. Conor Gleeson didn't deal with the high ball and then somehow didn't save a poor penalty. Poor quality contest, only a few decent individual moments from Galway so far such as the Matthew Tierney goal. Nice sunshine in Letterkenny ideal weather conditions for Galway to step up and win this match 2nd half. Yondu (UK) - Posts: 845 - 26/02/2023 13:14:12 2460229 Link
