Replying To Galwayforsam26:  "Is there any young good footballer in Galway like in mayo we seem to be an ageing squad"
Look at our underage results for the past 5 years or so. Not pretty.

Replying To LordLucan:  "Fair Dues to Mayo. They realky showed what letting good fast ball into top-class forwards can do. In sharp contrast to our laboured build-up to a 'generational' group of forwards. They had leaders who went for it bald/ headed when under the cosh. Bring back Tally or CoN - Moran was a fresh voice who the players responded to, Lessons, anyone??"
Looked at the stats just to confirm that my mind or eyesight missed all this good fast ball in?

Mayo scored 1-18 from through the hands football today. A style of play they used all year. Work rate,turnovers and pace on the counter all key traits.

Hats off to them they were great and fully deserving winners and the scenes after and the emotion was great to see. LEts hope our 25 year drought does not go on too long but we have loads of work to do.

Yesterday is a big eye opener, trust the youth.

Fionn McDonagh, Colm Costello and Shane McGrath need to have trust in them now to deliver.
