Well done lads on last week's game, ye came out of the traps flying and although we battled back well and could of won I think ye did deserve the win. Not all doom and gloom for us with the amount of chances we have created in the 3 matches, if we sharpen up our shooting I think we can catch fire some day, must say I never have confidence playing ye lot, you remind me a bit of Armagh 3/4 years ago like us then ye have a forward line to rival anyone's and can do a bit of everything and have a decent midfield just seem to get stuck at qf step, but you have every chance of breaking that run this year, I think any team from 12 can win it but I'd have Donegal and Kerry slightly ahead with all div 1 teams and a few div 2 teams in chasing pack that on their day can beat anyone or catch fire. Best of look for the year ahead and we might meet again later

Does anyone know will the game be live on Youtube GAA Beo?
Should be a great game, Roscommon are starting games well, Galway are finishing them well! Wind also could be a big factor. Whoever wins will be safe and can experiment for rest of the league with the pressure of relegation off.

Great win, Roscommon. Three tough games still to come though: The Dubs and Donegal at home and then Mayo away on the last day.

Well done players and management on another valuable 2 points earned.

The strong wind made it another game of two halves and a 11 point half time lead would become 13 five minutes into the 2nd half. After that we took over to out score Galway 2-8 to 0-1. Two fine finishes for goals by Enda and Daire and some outstanding defending late on.

6 points from 4 games put us in the box seat to retain our senior status now, roll on Dublin in the Hyde next Sunday should be a bumper crowd to follow a Roscommon showing plenty of pride,desire and passion.

Massive win for roscommon tonight, these were the type of games they usually lost in.last few minutes. The new recruits have been brillant and deservedly held their jerseys. St brigids players will find it tough to break into starting line up. Well done to the players and management. Everyone thought it was going to be a tough year for new management team they deserve huge credit

Great showing again in brutal conditions. Dont think people realised how strong the wind was. At half time i thought wed be able to get it back to few points with the wind, but galway would hold on by 2/3 pts.

Only concerns would be d heneghan going off early hopefully not too serious.
The other again is not winning enough breaks from kickouts.

Looking forward to the dubs now , who have to beat us or they be heading for div 2

Yeah, agree with the above for the most part. Mis field our Achilles heel. Could be the area that the Brigid's lads remedy.

This Roscommon senior team are playing more like Brigids, e.g can lose the midfield exchanges yet still score high and find ways to win.

Well done to the rossies last night, keeping Diarmuid Murtagh,Daire Cregg,Enda Smith fit and healthy will go a long way to having a good championship to follow a current good league campaign.

Brilliant win last night and great to see a few Rossies walking around Salthill and Eyre Square last night and this morning with smiles on their faces. The wind in the second half was just a fraction of what the Rossies faced in the first half which makes the win even more special. These new young players never gave up even when 13 points down and ably led by very three very special forwards in Enda, Diarmuid and Daire. It was however a real team/panel performance. Hope the Darragh Heneghan injury is not too bad as he has been very impressive so far in the league. The management team also deserve great credit for having confidence in using various substitutes during the league which results in great competition for places.

Should be a great crowd and atmosphere in the Hyde next weekend against a Dublin team who really have to win.
Bring it on!
