Two interesting intermediate semi finals on this week, St Kevin's favourite against Pearces B but have to show more attacking ambition if they are to progress, far too dependent on Adam Mcdermot, other forwards need to step up. If fit Shane Keenan will make a big difference. Pearces looked poor the last time they met, have they lost many players to the senior squad is the big question? imformed (Roscommon) - Posts: 172 - 02/10/2023 08:00:39 2506542 Link 0 |
What happened to Strokestown?. What did they get right last year to win the championship or what did they get so wrong this year to get relegated?. eoinog (Sligo) - Posts: 1861 - 02/10/2023 12:26:38 2506600 Link 0 |
Stunned at what has happened Strokestown. They were a top class team with great people in the club. Hopefully they can bounce right back to where they belong liosbreac6265 (Longford) - Posts: 234 - 02/10/2023 12:43:00 2506607 Link 0 |
Mullooly and the 2 Comptons overseas this year didn't help.

@imformed Pearses B have lost their best player Mark Richardson, senior management strangely brought him on with a couple of minutes to go against West Roscommon when the contest was as good as won. The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 3861 - 02/10/2023 15:36:01 2506654 Link 0 |
It was such a crazy move to bring him on with so little time remaining & the game already over as a contest, even if it was an injury they had other options, those lads must be wondering how they've fallen off the radar, ok as a team not setting the place on fire & as a management team you need to shake it up to make lads buck up, but still winning their games, winning and playing fair/poor whatever way you want to look at it is never a bad thing (man down for 10 minutes v Dominic's going into injury time and outscored them) but can't be hoping it clicks either, presumably he is in the shake up to start this weekend v Boyle.

Most definitely, I think they are lucky they had an intermediate team playing some very good sides to get game time into him & up to speed for senior championship, he would be some man to bring in v Boyle if not starting this weekend.

Ros Gaels luck finally ran out, realistically shouldn't have been there as we're fierce fortunate to win last 2 games... Brigids superb but faced very little resistance... hopefully tomorrow's game is a better spectacle. Rossie14 (Roscommon) - Posts: 33 - 07/10/2023 17:18:16 2507262 Link 0 |
So we have derby flavour to the intermediate final with Éire Óg v Castlerea The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 3861 - 07/10/2023 19:57:01 2507285 Link 0 |
Brigids looking good bit who of proper substance have they played, Pearses missed a giot edged opportunity to win the game against all odds the first day out, since then its been plain sailing, look I like the fact they can put the foot on the throat and keep going against teams but when it comes to boiling point of a county final does it do them any good, that all depends on whether Boyle or Pearses can actually bring it to that scenario.

Brigids had 14 wides to Pearses 3 in the opening round senior game. Unlikely to kick that amount of wides in the senior final. The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 3861 - 08/10/2023 14:09:59 2507334 Link 0 |
I've paid to watch Boyle v Pearses but the stream is down. endgame (Roscommon) - Posts: 2282 - 08/10/2023 16:13:28 2507347 Link 0 |
Boyle into the final for a 2nd year in a row and fine recovery from that opening heavy loss to Roscommon Gaels. The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 3861 - 08/10/2023 17:55:36 2507370 Link 0 |
You were lucky. A game of football broke out in the last 5 minutes

Semi finals are often nervy affairs. This was tight throughout. This is the second Roscommon club match that I've paid for recently where there have been streaming technical difficulties and it really isn't good enough. Boyle v Brigid's Final now. Brigid's will be favourites but Boyle will fancy their chances of winning their first senior county title in a remarkable 96 years.

Very one sided affair in first junior semi, Ronans didn't put up much of a fight at all, in the other Michaels deservedly got over a very defensive limited Kilglass team, turning point was probably the very cowardly act of one the Kilglass management who kicked a Michaels lad on the ground in front of the dugout, he was rightfully sent off and Kilglass lost their way after that. Fiachra Henry is a class act for Michaels. Fair play to Boyle getting back to final hope they do it now, Brigids be hard bet.

Surely very hard to see any result other than a Brigid's win. They were absolutely unreal all over the pitch and no weak links that I could see anyway. TobeaRossie (Roscommon) - Posts: 157 - 09/10/2023 08:44:09 2507475 Link 0 |
Final will be just as handy for them There a class act, amongst clubs of average ability and numerous problems, pearses no forwards, Boyle poor at the back, Ros Gaels lacking physically and a few players lacking real pace. Brigid's don't appear to have any issues especially any that'll be shown up in Ros championship. OhtobeARossie (Roscommon) - Posts: 1769 - 09/10/2023 11:49:36 2507528 Link 0 |
