Replying To High_and_wide:  "With O'Baoill and Thompson both out we are down two of our main 2 point kickers. Hopefully others will step up in the next few games as 2 pointers are becoming a crucial part of the game and you need a lot of options. McFadden, Mogan, McGee, Malone, and obviously Langan can all hit from distance so hopefully we won't see a dip in 2 pointers in the next few games.

Another thing is do we have a strategy to defend against opposition 2 pointers. Who will tag Ryan O'Donoghue? Maybe Roarty would be a good option for him."
I think Roarty is the man to mark O'Donoghue, he has the speed and tenacity for the job.

Replying To Tirchonaill1:  "Mayo will win no All Ireland, sorry to say for their loyal supporters but it just isn't going to happen, they blew so many chances it's very hard to see them ever getting those type of chances again.
They will continue to be a difficult team to beat and on their day will trouble the best teams in the country but they just never seem to have that X factor needed to go on and win the big one.
I expect Sunday to be a tough game in not great conditions, I can see it being a bit of a battle, I think we will will come away with the points and secure our div 1 status but a draw wouldn't surprise me either."
Lol are you the expert are ya? . We came up against the best team ever Dubs 6 in a row. Where the only ones whoever came close to them . Would hardly call that blowing chances. Yes we for sure blew one or two no doubt about it . But to say we will never wim sam is just a load of rubbish from an outsider and from a rival county . A draw wouldn't surprise you hilarious your ahead of us but we have had your number last few in years in league anyways. Another ridiculous post from you.

O'Donoghue is now playing on the 40 so if fit I'd say you'll see Eoin Ban on him. Give Roarty the licence to go forward as much as possible and pick off the scores he's been getting recently.
