Replying To Claretandblue: "Great win tonight for Tubberclair and a huge boost for them in their first senior championship match in probably 20 years. Minus Matthew W but they have a great mixture of lots of 20-21 year olds alongside older, experienced players. Two more wins out of four matches should secure a quarter final spot. Moate began well but faded in second half out scored by 0-15 to 1-4 Tyrrellspass drew with Killucan which could be a useful point later in the year, a brilliant start for Ballinagore winning their opening intermediate championship match against Finea." I was in kinnegad last night . Huge difference in standard in the two games. Just emphasises what a mess the county board have made of the championship when possibly Ballinagore could maje a quarter final .That bottom intermediate group is very like a mini junior championship, the favourites in it Rochfortbridge and Rosemount wouldn't get within 15 points of the third placed team in group A.

Wicklow's stunning performance a couple of weeks ago in the Tailteann cup final against a more historically successful team like that of Down senior footballers should be an example to us all hopefuls that any team is very beatable.
In my lifetime I have never experienced any team from the depts of div.4 when defeat was staring every player with every kick of a ball they took until the whistle blew for half time, everyone that is except Oisin McConville.
The very best of good luck to Andy Moran and his Mayo senior football squad tomorrow.

Replying To endgame: "Roscommon could have been there tomorrow. Who'd have thought after beating Mayo by 10 points in Castlebar in April that come July ,they'd be in an All Ireland final and we'd be weeks sitting at home. Hopefully next year, Roscommon's ambitions will go beyond Connacht. Best of luck to Mayo but I think Kerry will beat them pulling up." Stop please!! Roscommon couldn't be there, Roscommon were knocked out 6 weeks ago because we were outclassed by a Monaghan team who lost to Louth, who Mayo obliterated!! Mayo have improved game on game and got a nice run of games to build up through and now have a chance tomorrow. I don't think they will do it but they have given themselves a chance! Our lads are getting ready for club action next weekend.

Best of luck to Mayo tomorrow, it's going to be a big ask but hopefully they can cause a shock. Don't look at it as a free shot though because it's not , kobe won't be there next year and Kerry will be as strong as ever as well as the other contenders. The final to win is the one your in , it might be the only chance this team gets. My late mother was a proud Mayo woman who dearly wanted them to win an all ireland unfortunately she never seen it , I dearly hope tomorrow is the day ye finally climb the mountain.

Yeah, I fully agree with this. Castletown/Finea are playing Division 5 league football and finished joint fifth in the league, yet they could still have a better chance of progressing than teams like Milltown. Their league group includes Ballymore and Milltown's second team, and there's every chance Milltown's first team won't even get out of the A group. It just shows how backwards the competition has been structured this year. The county Board really need to review this format.

Replying To Seniorleague: "In fairness yewtree i dont see where mayo can make a game of it. Im looking forward to it and hope ye win but i just think kerry will have way way too much for ye all over the pitch frankly.
How do you think itll go?" Look we are up against it and if Kerry were playing any other top team I'd be backing Kerry to win it….BUT it's sport and it's a final and anything can happen. We've all seen strange things happen in sport and it can be unpredictable and that's why we love it. Of sport when the way off the favs every time then nobody would watch it. We live in hope. Up Mayo !

Disgusting scenes in Aughrim last night. Wicklow GAA already has a bad reputation for poor discipline from both players and spectators at club matches in the county. The new fence around our county grounds should have been made 1m higher, given previous incidents down through to the years, to prevent the risk of players mixing with spectators.
I doubt I'm the only one who has had to listen to comments from people in other counties slagging us off about "refs locked in boots" and "do you actually play any hurling/football up there?". Of course, it goes on in other counties too but we have more of a bad reputation for it.
Hopefully, the County Board throws the book at all those responsible for the violence last night. It's embarrassing and I'm sure it was deeply troubling for those looking on. Out of curiosity, were those lengthy bans issued after the Rathnew v Carnew match last year upheld? I think lifetime bans are the way forward for violent behaviour on/off pitch.

Replying To The_analyser: "Hard luck to the U18 girls beaten in a very low scoring All-Ireland A final 0-11 to 0-7." Cork having won the All Ireland last year had the older and much more experienced team. Based on both starting teams, Cork had 7 players aged 18 while Roscommon only had 4. Roscommon had 4 players aged 16 while Cork only had 3.
Roscommon should have a good minor team next year with some of this year's All Ireland winning under 16 team stepping up, so some positives on a disappointing day.
Well done to Cork on a well deserved win.
