Whats peoples thoughts for the weekend?? I think home advantage will be crucial as we've played well in aughrim this year. Also theres no way they can be as bad again as they were against Laois plus with rumours of a few injured bodies back I feel it might get us over the line.

I think we won't win on Sunday and the season is over. Hit and miss this year and could see the team losing.

I think that most supporters have become innured to the inconsistency of our team this season, consequently expectations are not great. I really hope they can do i, but bigger tests lie in wait.

Who knows with this team, they could win it easily or loose it by a big margin, best of luck to the team anyway lets hope the good Wicklow turns up!

Well done to both teams today. For the seniors bigger test await but they went well today, always good to leave Aughrim with a wim

Well done to the wicklow seniors. A lot of their problem is they are too slow to get the ball forward at pace. They play it over and back allowing the opposition to get back and setup. A first time ball into our full forward line would be better. Galway played lovely first kick football tonight

Totally agree. I have been banging on about that since last year- and I'm no expert. Looking at the many games on telly lately and fortune does favour the brave. Fast ball in, whether by kick pass or line breakers create all kinds of possibilities. Unfortunately, this particular team seems to be coached too long in the keep ball or lateral approach. Dean is the only one we have who is prepared to break the line.
