Come off it, I have the highest respect for the corofin team and their recent famtastic achievements. However you can't deny that the selfless work ethic that epitomised them on their club journies to croke park clearly deserted them once they pulled on the maroon jersey today. This was evident when Farragher was seen arguing with KW after being taken off. The least he can do is be respectful to a man who has given his all to galway football over the last few years. The reality is that these corofin players have excelled at an amateur level but the county game has been professional in all aspects but name for a decade now, and these players need to make that jump if they want to be seriously considered next year.

Club Success has nothing to do with County Success. How many All Irelands did Armagh win when Cross was at the top? A lot of nonsense being written on these pages. Anyone who was good enough got his chance on that team. They couldn't hack it. Might be good Club Players but it takes tough Men to play County. Look back at John O' Mahony's Team. Tough Men play County. Club only Mickey Mouse. Ask the Dubs. SAMMYTHEBULL (Galway) - Posts: 1644 - 07/07/2019 00:13:39 2206702 Link 1 |
You hide it well so. Today's loss isn't solely down to Corofin players not performing. Take a look at how quickly Corofin move the ball compared to the slow build up and lateral passing that has been a hallmark of Galway's play for some time. Absolutely nothing to do with those players abandoning their "selfless work ethic" today when wearing a maroon jersey. Ailteoir (Galway) - Posts: 789 - 07/07/2019 00:22:01 2206709 Link 1 |
Really poor penalty, on a wet day, low with power, not a side footed placement. Badly burnt by Carr for the goal & on a number of other Carr solo runs.

Spot on, there is also a psychological block with this panel, they have had several meltdowns to Mayo, Monaghan, Tipp, Dublin, Kerry, Roscommon. Some lads highly overrated, lads on here pushing fellas to the fore as future stars, many of them were handed their arse on a plate tonight by an aging Mayo team, riddled with injuries & knackerd after a tough Armagh game. Effectively a home game for Mayo as we saw that Galway football has no following, more excuses about injuries & the ref & then the embarrassing scene of a player arguing with the manager on the sideline. There are no leaders on that team & that panel is as divided as the divisions in Galway football. Yet another embarrassment.

A worse 70 minute performance from Galway than it was in the Connacht final. Mayo were there to beaten tonight but no one could complain if they won by 6 or 7 points. Yondu (UK) - Posts: 343 - 07/07/2019 02:24:12 2206736 Link 1 |
Quite a nasty atmosphere in the GG during and after the game. Galway fans receiving quite a bit of a abuse. I know Mayo supporters were frustrated after the last 4 years and are desperate for an AI but a fair bit of it was really out of order. Sad to see as it's always been a friendly enough rivalry.

Such nonsense." KW picked 4 of them tonight and they let him down." You've a serious chip on your shoulder. These guys are winners and proven winners at that. They didn't step up is your argument. Those guys are a credit to Galway football. Take your head out of the sand. Ok power made a mistake but the guy has been under unnecessary pressure. There was no movement at all by the backs in relation to his kickouts. Corofin have it down to a tee. Some of our backs didn't give him any options. They are not on the same wavelength. That's to do with the system. Silke is a class act. He was poor tonight . If we had won tonight would you drop him next week? I doubt it. Burke is a class act and anyone with any knowledge of the game would acknowledge that. Molloy is a brilliant footballer also. Was given 10 minutes. Kicked a brilliant point. Horan immediately reacted by springing Keegan from bench to contain him. That says it all. You obviously missed that. As for farragher, it was his first Start against an AllStar full back line and you attempt to rubbish the guy. The problem really was alot of the players we had out there tonight were programmed to play a defensive game and suddenly were asked to go all out attack. The corofin lads were more than capable of doing that but the rest were not as they are on not on the same wavelenght. Show a little bit of respect for those lads. We were beaten by the better team. You should accept that. Stop blaming players. It's deplorable. It's no disgrace losing to that mayo side. They'll beat Kerry next weekend and more than likely top the group with a victory over Donegal in the last game. They won't be far away this year and for me they are the only side with any realistic chance of taking down Dublin. As for the city/west players, maybe it's time they started to win the odd county title and step up as you say yourself. Reversepass1 (Galway) - Posts: 227 - 07/07/2019 05:38:09 2206752 Link 1 |

Fair dues to Declan Kyne, he was very good yesterday. He has received lots of criticism on this site. Mayo will put it right up to Dublin and best of luck to them. They had far more seasoned experienced operators on the pitch yesterday, and were due a win over us on the law of averages. Kevin should stay on for another year, the squad has been decimated with injuries all season. With a full hand to choose from, and the addition of Evan Murphy, the future is not as bleak as people think PopeFrancis19 (Galway) - Posts: 45 - 07/07/2019 07:41:20 2206765 Link 0 |

Declan Kyne was horse power especially in the first 50 minutes Turn over after turn over against the head when the game was slipping No bullsh*t, no arseboxing. Just getting on with it A leader If he played the Connacht final we would be in the super 8's His legs were gone for the last 15 John Daly excellent also And Cooke Maroonedinlongford (Galway) - Posts: 242 - 07/07/2019 08:27:45 2206776 Link 2 |

Galway football supporters deserve what they get. Out of around 20,000 in Limerick at least 75% were from Mayo. The Mayo people support their team through good and bad. The best team won and should have won by more. Corofin are an example of how to play football and that blueprint should be used for the county team. There's no point in blaming Corofin players when they are forced to play a slow negative game. Mayo are better. That's it. they never do what Galway did last year in the semi final and League final when the main objective was to keep the score respectable.

Galway bang average all year. The writing was on the wall from the London game that this was not going to be a good year. Jellybaby (Dublin) - Posts: 278 - 07/07/2019 09:48:44 2206801 Link 0 |
