Galway like Tipp and Cork realising these young lads mopping up Minor/U20 championships in the last 5 ir 6 years just arenât up to it.
Amazing really what came off Minor and U21 winning teams from 2006-2017 compared to whatâs come since.
That 2011 Under 21 winning team was very good to Galway.
An all time great.
Galway havenât mopped up many u20/1 titles I think youâll find
Theyâve been winning the minors and Cork the U20âs.
Meehawl had a very deliberate plan to create point scoring opportunities. No one before or since has got any kind of teamwork out of them.
Wait till ye see some of the 30/70 ball weâll fire into the inviting arms of the Kilkenny fullback line tomorrow.
Well whatâs O Shea bringing so. Bar nepotism.
Ara Iâll save the rant til tomorrow.
The youngster isnât great shakes yet but heâs growing into kind of a playmaker rather than the more selfish forward he was at underage. I think heâll be on the panel for the next few years but heâs still too light yet.
But as you said itâs a few hours early for the sniping.
This has been a problem for years.
The young lad was there before the oul lad on the line in fairness. As I said before, itâs more difficult to get off some of these panels than onto them.
Young O Shea is well worth his place on the panel. I hate folk insinuating otherwise, it deeply demeans both himself and his father who give an awful lot of themselves to Galway hurling.
Big Salthill have compromised your Rahoon roots. Sad to see.
Sord to see.
LookâŚitâs simple as this, and itâs linked the point I made regarding CC. Thereâs lads on there that havenât made the step up. Some canât, some wonât. Ballinasloe Junior Bs beat Salthill last year in the Co. Final and OâShea didnât feature. Junior BâŚJeez Liam Burke won Kilconieron an Intermediate title and kept them Senior on his own until he retired.
I donât think they are facilitated either by the county set up. Thatâs another story.
DOâS has skills, ok, but heâs a long time around already and hasnât really beefed up to the required to buy him the presence to mix it up and use these skills. Thatâs either down to genetics, focus on studies/career or worst case laziness (which I donât think is an issue).
Thereâs more than DâOS in this category - Collins, McLoughlin and McManus also.
AnywaysâŚItâs sad the way the game has gone tbh, the day of the tidy hurler that could excute a simple handpass legally is gone. One time skill from the backyard and training pitch would surpass the gym and the âânutritionistsââ.
For the day thatâs in it. Headed out presently to see how close to the shtadium I can get the bike
Id agree with this in part. The county underage system may be a sine qua non, but it absolutely shouldnât stop ongoing scouting and recruitment. Weâve always seemed a bit light on shrude scouts.
Make sure to piss in a few of the letterboxes there. Yuppy bastards.
Youre in early
