Replying To Dunmore10:  "Roscommon might have plenty of time to watch love island because they mite be out after next game"
We might be. Best of luck to all Connacht teams in the All Ireland series. Despite losing the Connacht final, Galway are in a good place. We'll all be looking at the draw on Tuesday morning.

Ultimately losing in your provincial final doesn't matter a jot for the all Ireland stage. If anything you'd be better off losing and having the few bits to work on. Motivation in provincial finals, both this year and going forward, has to be under serious inspection

Exactly,like the legions of young kids in modern Ireland who are ditching gaelic games and playing soccer and rugby instead. Some on here bemaon this phenomenon. I dont.
They want to do it. Best of luck to them.

So it's one of Donegal, Cork, Armagh, Mayo, Louth, Tyrone or Westmeath. I would be of the opinion we just need a win and get into a QF. Donegal and Armagh would be difficult, any of the others we have a good chance

Agree, avoid the extra game to be fresh for a QF. It's a free hit really this next game but a smooth passage could make all the difference, we saw last year how hard it was to play 3 weekends in a row at this level

Yes that's right. A provincial title is nice to win but doesn't help in the All Ireland series bar getting home advantage for the next game but the provincial losers get that as well.
