Agreed
Got told today, and this is pretty common knowledge now so no great exclusive, but Hurley and O’Driscoll were dropped from the team yesterday for drinking last weekend down in West cork with Ruiri Diane who was dropped from the panew. He was the obvious replacement for Alan O’ Connor or McGuire who for some bizarre reason was not used at all.
It emerged that Cork trained extremely hard 3 times between kerry games and again did a full session last Monday night. What a bunch of morons. They don’t deserve any better.

What in the name of God is a Ruiri Diane? Sounds like they were on the piss with a drag queen

Aaron Devlin is on a life support machine, he would have been on the Derry panel over the past few years but was one of the players who received a lengthy ban for a tweet in the fallout after the Derry senior final last year. He’d only be in his early 20s as well, brain virus the cause apparently.
If Galway and Tyrone both win the Round 4 Qualifiers next weekend does that mean Galway face Monaghan in the semi final as they’ve already faced Mayo in the Connacht Championship?
I presume so seeing that Fermanagh are now playing Dublin, not Kerry
Yes GB
Not going to happen. Done gal will squeeze the life out of Galway. Baysht to be sent off is the bet.
Doubful @Juhniallio, Donegal lack the fluency Galway will bring. Galway, whether win or lose, will offer flambouyant football, aggressive tacticts and panache. Donegal, like all Nordie teams, offer strangulation.

Incorrect seeing as Galway have been outscored from play in their last two games against Ulster opposition and received more black cards in those games.
Galway happened to find themselves much better at the strangulation side of the game than both Derry and Armagh. They also picked up three black cards in those two games compared to the two Armagh and Derry picked up over the course of those games with the Brendan Rogers one for Derry being a complete farce of a decision.
Your stereotypes are incorrect and outdated.

As are yours nimby. Black cards are taken by winners at the end of a game for time wasting purposes. Attempting to use them as an indicator of dirt is pointless.

And you were on here singing the praises of Derry for shutting up shop against Dublin. Basically it just returns to your amusing medical condition of having to defend every nordie team no matter what. I love it.

I’m not using them as an example of dirt but of cynicism which doesn’t fit with the pitcture Boxty is portraying of the current Galway football team. The fact that you saw it as an indication of dirt is an incorrect inference on your part.
They have a hard edge, they are organised and they are very willing to do whatever it takes to get over the line with cynicism. They are not playing like a team with panache
Once again, it’s a wrong inference on your part. I haven’t criticsed Galway for the way they have changed tact this year, in fact I have commended them and I expect them to get back at the top in the coming years under Walsh.
I merely corrected a completely different portrayal of the current Galway. They are an extremely, defensive, dogged and cynical team right now and those are the qualities you need to kick on in the modern game - playing fancy open football is folly against the big sides.
I think you need to let your resentment of me go, it constantly draws you into a battering.
Surely following your own logic, if Galway scored more frees than both Armagh and derry it means that they committed more fouls, the cynical nordie bastards.
I think no matter what discussion takes place you assume you’ve ‘battered’ someone. Possibly something to do with your chip shop heritage?
