Oh someone wrote a song about Andy Moran. Jeez the players and management should really stop what random eejits do. The trolls on here are painful. Same 5 or 6 raging that Mayo have ended up in a semi final unexpectedly.

From the outside Mayo are flying the Connacht flag alone.

If a big Mayo crowd travel it's hype. If they win there will be talk of hype. If they lose it will be because of hype. There's a bizaree obsession with Mayo.

They're just representing themselves.

Replying To Drax_the_destroyer:  "Seán Kelly MEP and Former GAA president yesterday

I've been thinking for some years now , that Mayo
best chance of winning Sam, is when it's least expected and they come in under the radar - bit like this year ? But, when I said that to a guy in Brussels today ,he replied , ' Mayo , come in under the radar ? . You must be joking ! Not a hope . If they qualify for the Final, all the hype and over confidence and 'Mayo4Sam', will take over again and it will blow any chance they have of winning' Not sure , he's right ach mar a deirtear, 'Neosfaidh an aimsear ' So, cool it Mayo!"
Sean showed his true colours with Maria Walsh on Mercusar so I wouldnt pay a blind bit of notice on his opinion.

There is a lot of lazy analysis on Mayo as usual in the build up to this. Just listening to some podcasts, they all seem to think bar the O'Connors and O'Se on the panel this is a new Mayo team….same as Louth.

Well let's take an actual look, Ryan O Donoughue, Conor Loftus, Tommy Conroy, Matthew Ruane, Stephen Coen, Jordan Flynn, Enda Hession (sub) all played in the 2021 final…Coen, Loftus Durkan have obviously played in multiple semi finals and finals.

Does any of this matter? Maybe not, but experience of the big days does count. It's a carbon copy of the build up and feeling before the Cork Game. Bookies have Mayo has slight favs but the vast majority of the pundits are going for Louth. Let's see what happens….
