2023 All Ireland Senior Football Championship

McBrien has it. He’ll be at 3 for the foreseeable.

DOC needs to be at 6. Carney and Flynn at midfield. Carney had an okay year but doesn’t offer enough of an attacking threat, his future is in the middle. The half forward line isn’t dynamic enough either, either one of ROD/Conroy should be brought out to run at teams, or Hession should be given a run there.

That Callinan has something about him too. I know he had a mare yesterday but he’ll bounce back.

A bit ironic that they seem to have found an excellent No 3 now but when they badly needed one back in the teens for all those big games against Dublin/Donegal/Kerry they didn’t have one.

King Con doesn’t come out of that well, delete it mate, quick!!!

It hasn’t been a great championship at all for Mayo really.

Lost to the hated Rossies.
Beat Kerry but Kerry never turned up for that game. They were miles off it on the day for whatever reason. Still you have to give Mayo some credit for the win.
Struggled past Louth.
Lost to a very average Cork.
Beat Galway by a point but a Galway side crippled by injuries yet they still would have won if Shane Walsh had just hit his frees.
Demolished by the Dubs.

The old stagers always hung around in previous years as they probably felt Mayo were very close to going all the way. They don’t look all that close now. Very much back in the pack with a bunch of counties.

You forgot the fact that they decided as a group to kick Sean Kelly off the pitch.

Kinnerk needs to be by the dugout so he can keep an eye on the laptops and clipboards.

Gilroy was on the Cusack side yesterday.

Gilroy has been on the far sideline all summer whispering sweet nothings into the mic and keeping the new young lads honest. He got told to return to the bench v Roscommon when Bryan Cullen was spotted over that side too. Getting a serious Peter Pan on the legs too.

Jim McGuinness: Mayo are where Dublin were in 2014 and it’s time to face the hard facts

Basically says Mayo have stuck with the same man to man approach for ten years and it hasn’t worked. Dublin copped it in 2014 and introduced a sweeper and defensive system and mayo need to too. Hard to argue with that.

Dublin 2014 had the strongest pool of players of any county in the last 30 years. Mayo display very few footballing similarities to Dublin 2014. They were raging hot favourites and were caught on the hop by a carefully designed Donegal coup.
