Replying To ValPadden: "Younger players didn't get a look in when it mattered last year. Shane McGrath came in as a sub on 67 mins vs Dublin. Otherwise, it was the old brigade. It's a lot worse than "ok" in terms of Galways use of u20 players." Just wondering if anyone has the league fixtures for next year I know they Kerry first home think away Meath ( croke park ) also think they have Armagh , Donegal and cork home and away mayo and Ross but don't know in which order I seen on Ross page they playing 28th Feb Kickitout (Galway) - Posts: 1191 - 03/11/2026 18:09:08 2699357 Link
Replying To Eire89: "OK is not enough nor will it have us winning an all ireland." OK was enough for Mayo at U20 level. Remains to be seen will Fitzmaurice be the manager to place his trust in starting few U20s come the business end of the championship.

They'd a couple of generational players last year and were focused on senior. Look ahead to 2027 and hopefully Galway can unearth a few young guns and actually play them ValPadden (Galway) - Posts: 17 - 03/11/2026 20:26:38 2699372 Link
Seems like this is Galway's fixture list for the league. Not too bad on paper. 4 home games. Not much travel really. Although I think Galway have generally played better away from home in the league in recent years. Galway v Kerry Meath v Galway in Croke Park Mayo v Galway Galway v Armagh Roscommon v Galway Galway v Donegal Galway v Cork Marooned (Galway) - Posts: 2579 - 03/11/2026 20:53:01 2699374 Link

There is no point putting lads in if they're not. Not too many u20s are ready straight away for senior, Lets not get carried away here - Mayo had just two under 20s involved. Kobe was clearly good enough and was destined to be a superstar - a blind man could tell you that whilst Darragh Beirne was also flagged from his minor days and crucially for them was a left footed free taker which they didn't have. That's what got him into the team. galwayman2 (Galway) - Posts: 1416 - 04/11/2026 08:30:41 2699386 Link
