Replying To Frank74: "Dromard looked very impressive against Colmcille. We laboured to a victory, nothing spectacular. Abbey as expected win it handy over Slashers and Killoe did out another win in the knock out stages. Semi Finals I am going for Killoe and Dromard to win with Killoe winning it overall. They know how to dig out wins when needed." Going for a Dromard win is not in any way going to change anyone elses view that Clonguish are the clear favourites for this game. Just hoping Dromard can repeat the Colmcille performance to keep it tighter than would have been expected and give Clonguish a battle! Clonguish are the only team to date in the championship to win all their games. datsit (Longford) - Posts: 48 - 15/09/2026 10:48:32 2693880 Link
Replying To drunkensailor: "Agree with u. Clonguish hammered dromard last year and a repeat performance could well be on the way for this jolly green giant of a team" You seem to be forgetting Joe Hagan and Matt Duffy did not play in that game last year! There will be no repeat performance from last year. Oddball (Roscommon) - Posts: 1052 - 15/09/2026 11:28:34 2693885 Link

On another day Colmcille could have scored 6 goals and they don't have the quality of forwards Clonguish have. I'd be amazed if Clonguish don't win by close to 10 pts. I imagine they are delighted Colmcille are gone. GAALONGFORD (Longford) - Posts: 43 - 15/09/2026 13:46:00 2693902 Link

Replying To Oddball: "You seem to be forgetting Joe Hagan and Matt Duffy did not play in that game last year! There will be no repeat performance from last year." Dronards problems are in defence. Colmcille cut through them at ease and should have st least 4 goals. Everything went for them last Sunday ad it was a free shot. They have a young and inexperienced team, operating at this level. Clonguish are going well this year. Won playing in 2nd/3rd gear the last day. Clonguish of course are delighted that Colmcille are gone and will open up Dromard. Remember they scored 4 goals in first half and Dromard got a few consolation efforts late on. While they had good individual displays on Sunday they do not appear to have a defensive plan. They will challenge in years to come but this year is too soon. Maybe Clonguish will underestimate the challenge and have an off day but I doubt it. The painful lessons they suffered to Colmcille in the past few seasons will inspire them. B&G (Longford) - Posts: 449 - 15/09/2026 15:45:57 2693922 Link
