Replying To Marooned:  "Yes, I don't think 5 points will keep Galway up as Monaghan might lose all their games. So probably 2 more wins will be required. Hard to see us winning up in Donegal although with 6 points on the board already you never know when Jim will pull the handbrake up there. So Galway might need to win 2 more games from Roscommon, Monaghan and Dublin."
If Monaghan might lose all their games, that's 2 points for us, and if we drop points in Salthill to Roscommon, that will be seen as a regressive result by many, excluding Jim and S1234 of course.

If ever proof was needed, it was abundantly clear that gaining primary possession at midfield is the springboard to success at this level. Galway have been particularly weak in this regard, to their detriment, in recent years. But, I think the coin has finally dropped with management. Load the area with 6 ft. plus giants, if needs be, have the breakers and I believe we have the quality up front, to achieve a lot this year.

Replying To SixtiesKid:  "Mid sixties
Michael Moore and Johnny Geraghty"
I actually think that at one point in the mid 90s Galways goalkeepers were Cathal McGinley and Pat Comer- both from Salthill, but McGinley playing with Dunderry in Meath and Comer with Carraroe.
Open to correction on that...
