I'd certainly have them on the bench to cover injuries but neither, particularly GOD are what id call "impact" players coming off the bench. Maybe if we had a lead late they could come on a steady things down with experience, here is hoping.

I heard from a good source that Comer suffered a setback at training last night. Won't play any part in Saturday's game. The Burke and Sice stories are no more than that. Neither are currently training with the team. Power to start. Connemaraman (Galway) - Posts: 88 - 03/07/2019 22:50:53 2205213 Link 1 |
Sounds about right..Comer should take the season off he doesnt want to end up like Meehan

Power, Molloy and farragher have to start on Saturday. KW needs to give these lads a chance now. Power's kickouts are top drawer and he is the best goalkeeper we have. There is no dispute about that now. Molloy deserves his chance. He's a brilliant footballer and will drive forward at every opportunity. He doesn't do the lateral stuff that drives the supporters daft with frustration. Farragher has to start at 14. He's playing well and is a top notch footballer who will score. He's a natural finisher. Reversepass1 (Galway) - Posts: 227 - 04/07/2019 01:18:16 2205259 Link 1 |
Galway have beaten London and Sligo, we need to actually go out and attack, we have the players, Gaillimh Abu suckvalleypaddy (Galway) - Posts: 1406 - 04/07/2019 08:29:49 2205282 Link 1 |
pretty fair and logical assessment. we need real pace and directness in hb line and molloy and heaney give u that. mcdaid is a real line breaker and farragher gives us a focal point/different option at 14 which should create space elsewhere re keeper, as i said in previous posts both have similarly accurate kick outs but power disguises his better and seems to be able to change his target during his run up. how is the midfield area shaping up? flynn was carrying a knock the last day, fiontain went off injured and duggan wasn't listed because he was injured. If we have flynn and 1 other at full throttle in this area we can clean up on Saturday. Mayo are very depleted in what is traditionally a strong area for them. but if we are struggling for bodies there too it really makes the game a toss of a coin.

Agreed. Power disguises his kickouts better which makes the difference. If Heaney starts then it can only be at 7. That's where he can make a difference. Let mcdaid do the business on the 40. He's a far better option than the likes of brannigan and cooke who won't drive forward. Brannigan drifts out of games. He won't win the dirty ball. Mayo will bring huge intensity to the game. We have to try a match them in that department. Mayo lack pace at the back and if we go direct, we can win. Midfield is now a problem area with all the injuries. I'd go with Conroy and Daly. Power should be able to supply enough ball to them from kickouts if they start in the middle and that should give us a foundation to drive forward at pace. Farragher as you say will provide a focal point at 14. He's strong and has a good football brain. He'll hold the ball up and feed o laoi and Burke.

This is the last throw of the dice for KW and at least some of the players like GOD and Bradshaw. If they lose, I think they are gone so this is the most important games of their respective management / playing careers. We know that they are capable of playing decent (if not top drawer) football and we know they are also capable of being atrocious as in the second half of the Connacht Final this year, the second halves of the Dublin and Tyrone league games this year and the second halves of the Monaghan / Dublin championship games last year. They have to play for the full 70+ minutes this time (no more second half no-shows / fadeouts) and if they do that, they have a chance. I'm not happy with the fullback line and midfield diamond areas but we are where we are and I hope KW and the management (even at this 11th hour) can let the players play positively and express themselves. Let them go down playing decent football if they are to be beaten at least. tommy k (Galway) - Posts: 2407 - 04/07/2019 11:51:55 2205378 Link 1 |
As in Athletics parlance, Galway need to position themselves on Mayo's shoulder coming down the "back straight" (last 20 mins.). Really (Galway) - Posts: 393 - 04/07/2019 13:37:50 2205434 Link 1 |
would have to agrree fully with this excellent post the focal point of farragher is key and burke playing alongside his club mate could re ignite his season but if they click then they could do untold... so hard to guess any other positions with injuries but certainly the midfield sector for both teams will be key to me its power all the way....lavelle as well as bving easy to read tends to look down at the ground when retrieving the ball to avoid having to go short- we need this option esp with midfield struggling for clean possession squares_edge (Galway) - Posts: 602 - 04/07/2019 15:05:47 2205481 Link 0 |
I like your team although Sean Kelly must start. Id swap him with Molloy. I wouldnt start Bradshaw or Gary O'D either.
