Replying To Eire89:  "Please explain your understanding of "Homegrown".Look at the pick and population they have not delivered and last co title was 2012 which is simplyu not good enough for a club their size and with all their underage success were they can field up to 6 teams in age groups they if anything should be ashamed of their return."
Homegrown as in they have all come up through the underage ranks with the club.
They didn't join Salthill as adults.

Replying To jm25:  "Is tomo not from Clarinbridge. Was Rob allay with Salthill even when father was out playing for carraroe?"
Do I not remember seeing one of the Culhanes (not certain it was Tomo) playing underage for Galway and their affiliated club was Clane (or some other team in Kildare). Tomo definitely played minor for Salthill but there was a Kildare element there at some point.

It's been a pretty straight forward Senior championship so far with all the Favourites winning. There hasn't been a stand out game yet apart from Corofin and Miltown. The bottom sides seem to be as bad as ever. Annaghdown, Michaels and Monivea are very very poor. Barna are poor but will stay up (Groundhog day).The tops teams are not really showing much quality either apart from Moycullen maybe. Overall the standard has been very poor, maybe teams are aiming to peak from pre lims on.

Mtb Vs Ougtherard- MTB by 3
Salthill Vs Michaels- SK 15+

Corofin Vs LM- Corofin by 8
Miltown Vs Monivea- Miltown by 8

Moycullen Vs James- Moycullen by 1
Kilannin Vs Barna- Kilannin by 2

Tuam Vs Annaghdown- Tuam by 9
Dunmore Vs Claregalway- Draw

Replying To Fox.1n.7he.b0x:  "There is a lot of talk that Pj is not going to be the manager next year!! Anyone else hear this rumour??"
No truth to this rumour. He will be in charge next year I've told.
To this weekend's action. Oughterard M/M could be a really good game. Second place in group up for grabs. Finnerty back for M/M might swing it in their favour.
I expect a big Corofin performance this weekend following their game against Milltown.
I think Barna may beat Killannin with a couple of players back. May not be enough to avoid bottom place though.
Dunmore Claregalway could go either way. I'll go for a draw.
That would leave things looking something like this!

Winners and into quarter finals: Moycullen, Corofin, Salthill/Knocknacarra, Tuam.

Second place: Killannin, Milltown, Mountbellow/Moylough, Dunmore

Third place: St James, Leitir Mor, Oughterard, Claregalway

Would set up some intriguing Quarter Finals
