They can get Joe brolly to sort that
Anyone heading in Saturday night?
How did Trayers go at centre back against Tipp. I thought he looked decent albeit a bit light/wirey v Clare in the league this time last year
If youāre stuck Iāll drop you a DM if Iām back in time from a christening. Iāll miss every other home League game for international work commitments so want to get in on Saturday evening.
He was grand, more comfortable there than Lee who fared better at midfield so a win all around. I think this will be a bigger test for this young Galway team, Cork are approaching the league seriously and lads will want to impress BOC. Hopefully not a trimming.

I think we have turned the corner, not that Iād ever admit that. Competition for places now maybe. Cork will be good, but the surface wonāt suit them. Pearse is for mullocking.

Thanks. I may or may not tip in. Flying back tomorrow night until Sunday. Iāll go with Hughie anyway, was just wondering if anyone was having a pint at some point. I donāt have a visa yet though. 
Youāll never be on your own in Wards, Salthill anyways.
He was at 3 the last day Iām fairly sure and Daithi at 6. Trayers looked good but raw, brilliant athlete and great at attacking low ball hit in. Iād probably question how good he is at defending in tight spaces around the parallelogram

Iāve never understood various Galway managers obsession of moving daithi burke out of 3. He has 5 all stars there!

Robbing Peter to pay Paul
It was Shane OāNeill who started it?
He also tried to retire David Burke as a 30 year old and more or less retired Canning when he probably had another year or two in him.

He is not hectic at 6 either. Super full back and should never have been moved out.

Iād say heāll be moved back to 3 as long as Trayers can hopefully stick at 6. Looks like they are losing faith in Gavin Lee as a 6. Probably doesnāt have enough defensive instincts for the position. As good as he is on the ball.

For all Trayers athleticism Iām not sure heās the tidiest hurler. He gave 2 or 3 poor stick passes in the second half v Tipp.
A mix of him and Leeās stick passing would be optimal.
It was a cold wet miserable night which was actually lit up by some of the hurling. I wouldnāt read anything into that.

I see Lee was playing centre forward for UCG during the week. Four points. Is he kinda jack of all trades master ofā¦
When you know you know.
Still going to be an unbelievable athlete and player.
Galway Clubs have won 5 All Ireland Feileās since 2018 which is really good going.
Presume Trayers was one of the main men on Turloughmoreās back to back winning teams in 2018 and 2019.
Aaron Niland and Sean Murphy are already Galway Senior panelists off the Clarinbridge team that hammered Ballygunner in the 2021 final in Semple Stadium. Think Micheal Donoghue coached that team.
