Replying To Southsligoman:  "Good man taypot. Aye paul and aidan. You know the lads? Two older lads that would make an impact coming on.

Niall might be better doing the same. Tipp were decent v cork (who will beat kerry) for a while. We are in trouble if we are not in top form."
Why would you mention 2 players from another county?
Players that are starting

To illustrate my point. The two lads are pushing on. Oshea especially should be on the mayo bench; 15 minutes would be enough for him. Surely we can comment on other players from neighbouring counties!?

More importantly the team has been named. Will you be at the game taypot? We will keep the fingers crossed. Twould be nice to get a bit more debate going here..

Cummins on the 40 is interesting. Eddie back is huge. That team might not start of course the usual!

I think we will get over the line. Just about. 2-19 to 1-18

You can comment on any players you wish!!!!!
I might not agree with you but that's all debatable.

I would be concerned about the game at the weekend. Too many important players missing again (Mulligan added to the list now). Not many teams can absorb that number of players absent. Will be a high scoring game. We are vulnerable at the back with Lyons and Mullen and they conceded a lot against us last year in Tubber. Midfield is a key area - they have a fee big units in the central area, do we have the size to break even?

I thought Toweys interview was a lot more interesting than any thing that has been spoken about all year by the mgt. We will have a tough time on Sunday. Little or no build up, a lot of apathy from supporter plus 2 Provincial deciders on the T.V. MC Guinness returning is a help but I can't see him match fit in his first game back. However he will certainly add a certain bit of power and physical presence that is badly missing. I hope Lally starts. Nice to see Donlon/O Boyle also getting selected. Neither have got much time this year. I think we will concede a lot but hopefully we might score just a little bit more than them. If we keep a clean slate we still might need two goals of our own to get the win.
Best wishes to the team and management
