Galway - quadruple travails part 2

Group 1 could be tasty with Caroline on board.

Does every group there have at least two teams who border each other, with group 2 having all 4 teams border each other? Just shows how small an area Galway hurling is pulling from despite the size of the county.

Group 4 the most interesting. Could make a case for any of the four clubs to top that group.

Loughrea should walk their group.

Fuck your graphics, we need more of this.

Is it still 3 out of 4 teams qualifying from each group? The hurling preliminary quarter finals were very one sided last year.

Was there a vote on a new format starting next year? It was mentioned on Maroon and White a few months back.

Yep. Top of group goes through to q/f. Play offs then for teams in 2nd and 3rd.

I’m only half way through this weeks Maroon & White podcasht but macdara macdonncha wants a total rip up job of the team, he’s after suggesting about twenty starters in the half forward line.

He eventually summaries that Tipperary nor Galway know what Galway team will turn up and that makes them very dangerous.

Shaughs is great. He has a brilliant way of drawing out his guests in an understated way. It’s the constant droll accent. Although it wouldnt hard after last Sunday.

Except Hanley. I didn’t enjoy him much. Came across as argumentative and angry. I agree about Shauggs. He does his homework and gives the guests space. It should be Brady unfiltered every week though.

It’s a little awkward at times.

It is with an odd one.

It’s gas that in thousands of years that aliens will dig up an ancient artifact of the podcasht when Brady went nuclear on Cashel.

When Hanley started on about all the great goalies in Galway club hurling it was time to fast forward.

Back in my days using public transport me and a mate were waiting for a bus to Dublin
This chap started chatting to us at the bus stop. Our appearance wouldn’t have marked us out as hurlers but he obviously wanted a chat and thought hurling was a good ice breaker. As the conversation went on we realised he had played county for Galway and was from Gort. He was subtle enough (didn’t tell us he had All Ireland medals) but being hurling fans we soon copped who it was, the lack of a tache and the fact an All Ireland winner was waiting for public transport kinda threw us. Being begrudging townie cunts we had 90 on our minds while he preferred to talk sbout 87 and 88. We stopped the bus for him just in case, like.
