Didn't see the game today, sounds like a harsh red card made things easy for us. Still good to get another 2 points on the board.

I know, beating the mighty Dubs must mean the stars are aligning somewhere over Croagh Patrick......

Someone posted a video on social media showing it and it was ridiculous maybe a yellow at most.

Bit early in the year to be getting so badly triggered by Mayo, need to pace yourself lads.

A great effort, even if the in transition Dubs had a somewhat experimental team. I know a team were relegated last year with 6 points, but in all probability one more win should make us safe, and allow Andy to give time to more of the youngsters. Andy seems particularly adept and setting up the team to take advantage of the new rules.

The big difference between this year and last year in NFL div1 imo is that last year's division included arguably the 8 best sides in the country at the time, whereas this year's div1 includes Monaghan and Roscommon who may or may not be 'top8' material, let alone top6, which is the finish you need to retain status.

Rossies are not to be sniffed at . Sure their club nearly won the all Ireland . Monaghan are always a tricky side is well . It would not syrprise me if Rossies beat ye .

Good to see Mayo schools strong again this year. All Mayo A final fins and Mayo schools in C And D finals.

A Mayo heavy UL team beat queens last night to reach the Sigerson final. Cian McHale with 1-8 and 0-4 from Frank Irwin. I like the look for Conal Dawson and Morahan too. Future looks bright with talent coming thru despite what some were forecasting.

Who was forecasting that? Three Connacht Minor titles in a row 2022,23,24 and lost last year's final narrowly.

Won the Connacht U20 last year and will be strong favourites to retain that Connacht title this year especially with Kobe McDonald staying around for that campaign. He played in a recent U20 challenge win against Dublin I believe.
