No. We did occasionally but nothing as defensive as today. As the pundits were saying there it looks like Mattie set up not to get a hiding today .
Donal Burke is going travelling for the summer and hence Mattie hasnāt picked him recently.
Hmm, thatās interesting. To be honest, I would have been surprised if we had won well; as I said, the Dublin backs are generally quite decent. I do think your general forward play could be improved upon and probably will need to be to make a quarter-final.
Best wishes to Joe.
In the top five of players Iāve seen in the flesh along with the likes of Brian Whelehan, Tommy Walsh and Liam Watson.
Unreal consistency to do it year in, year out with the burden/expectation of being the main man for Galway.

None of those lads would make the current Limerick squad
Danny and Dillon were good. All of of the rest of the forwards were varying degrees of awful. We have a good few forward injuries at the moment but ultimately we are a weak up front and this is going to take a few years to address
Will they play Rushe full forward or centre forward this season as the backs are strong enough? OāDonnell and Moran deservedly get a lot of plaudits but I like Smyth too - think heās a fine young player.
Youāre trying too hard mate, itās difficult to watch
Itās been a long day
Yeah. Iād imagine rushe will be in the forwards. Paddy Smyth was excellent again today. He is a great corner back. Dublin v Wexford in Parnell park is shaping up to be the pivotal game of the season for both teams

Did Mulcahy not take Smyth for 3 points (all in the first half maybe)? To be honest, Iād have said he was the weakest of the Dublin backs. Admittedly, I wasnāt paying particular attention to who was who.
Whichever Dub corner back was on Mulcahy got a bit of a āhosingā alright, as Thomas Ć SĆ© would say. Eoin OāDonnell was superb, great bit of stuff. SeĆ”n Moran a nice player too.
I think he was on Smyth for 2 of the 3 points. In fairness to Smyth Dublin were being overrun out the field in the second half and there was ball raining down on our full backline and himself and o Donnell stood up to it manfully

Great for hurling generally and the championship season ahead that itās nowhere near as bad as first feared.
