Deserved win for Boyle this afternoon or be it going 28 minutes without a score could have been costly for them. Learnt from their poor defensive showing against Roscommon Gaels to defend well today including marking the Murtagh's out of the game from play. Enda Smith good in midfield (playing him in defence should be over now) Daire Cregg their best forward kicking three fine scores from play and creating/assisting a few others. For Faithleachs I thought Glennon and Nerney was among their stand outs. The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 3861 - 19/08/2023 18:37:19 2501354 Link 0 |
Watched the live stream there of Faithleach's and Boyle in Ballyleague. 2 point win for Boyle. Daire Cregg is a real talent. Two good feet. Think he'll be a big player for Roscommon in the future. Excellent coverage I thought. Raymond Lannon on commentary very good. endgame (Roscommon) - Posts: 2282 - 19/08/2023 18:37:27 2501355 Link 0 |
Good wins and impressive scoring by Brigids and Pearses in matches they were expected to win easy enough as the teams Doms,Glaveys are currently lining out with would struggle to win intermediate games never mind games against two teams that are contenders for the senior championship The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 3861 - 19/08/2023 20:54:05 2501374 Link 0 |
Fair point as I had missed Smokie's post.

When Iain Daly was selector with the County he had about 8 of his club mates on the County panel. That's only two or three years ago. How are they at the level you say

They started with two players that was on the senior county panel recently (Patterson,Fitzmaurice) yesterday. Another Andy Glennon came on at half time and scored 5 points.

From one point down at half time to winning by 12 a outstanding 2nd half display by Oran. That's them into the knock out stages again next step is winning a knock out game coming up short the last few years. Gaa_lover (USA) - Posts: 3456 - 20/08/2023 14:33:55 2501437 Link 0 |
Very impressive by Oran and poor by Strokestown whom managed just one point in the 2nd half. Lack of a midfield their biggest issue this year and preparing for this senior championship playing in Div 2 wouldn't have been helpful and by not playing Mullooly pretty much highlighted he's the best defender they have.

Would be great to see Oran going all the way or reaching the Final at least.

I was posing a question following a post that Boyle are rumoured to be losing leading players! Whatever the team aren't going too well this year but they should make the Quarters after yesterday's win and as Strokes showed last year that's the time to come good.

Sad to near the news about Mick McCormack, the match day experience will be darker now without him, wonderful character and die rossie and talented photographer he was. Thoughts with family. The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 3861 - 21/08/2023 15:56:47 2501636 Link 9 |
R I.P Mick. Always part and parcel of match day. Seanfanbocht (Roscommon) - Posts: 1795 - 21/08/2023 17:54:47 2501676 Link 1 |
Thought Oran were impressive at the weekend, could be an outside bet for the championship if they can stay injury free and not be over awed if they meet Brigits or Pearses in the latter stages. Their game v Clann na Gael should show where exactly they are in the pecking order (even though both teams are through). Strokestown will be disappointed with their season but a big last game for them v Tulsk to see who goes up for relegation. Rossfan93 (Roscommon) - Posts: 50 - 23/08/2023 15:52:11 2501960 Link 1 |
The concerte seating was removed in Hyde Park yesterday and to be replaced by plastic seating. The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 3861 - 25/08/2023 16:03:05 2502246 Link 3 |
Great news to see improvement work continuing in Hyde Park. Are they just putting in the same number of rows or will they remove a few rows from the front and have steeper banking in order to prevent the people sitting in front of you from blocking your view a little bit? I am right in thinking that the slope of the seating in the main stand is slightly different to the slope in the concrete seating? (Might need to get the old geometry protractor out!) Maybe reducing capacity and receiving less revenue at the odd Connacht final (from having less seating) and the additional cost of the work if necessary, might be a issue? However, a lot more matches are played in the Hyde than the odd Connacht final and that needs to be taken into consideration also. If Roscommon qualify for a Connacht final, is there still more additional work to do in order to have one played in the Hyde?. Well done to Club Rossie and to the Rossie supporters for collecting some serious money over several years and to the county board for getting things moving last year and this year. The work done last year really cleaned up the ground a lot. Hopefully we will get a few extra championship qualifying matches (neutral venue) to help with the finances and also support local businesses. We deserve it Croke Park/Fixtures Committee!!!!!! We are a small county with limited finances and therefore need all the support we can get from both the Connacht Council and Croke Park. Hopefully that is forthcoming as it is obvious that the Rossies are putting in the hard work! letsgetgoing (Roscommon) - Posts: 612 - 26/08/2023 09:07:28 2502287 Link 0 |
