Heard today that Eoin Concannon, Johnny Duane and Gary Sice left the Galway football panel before the Armagh game. Apparently they got the hump after getting dropped for lads just brought into the panel like Mick Lundy. Fooks sake
Edit, Siceās departure was unrelated to the other 2 and is expected to return Im told
Depends on whether Kk win Leinster , if the do the games will be sufficiently spaced to let that happen but the week in week out cross country circuit would make it harder I think
Tannian doesnāt track his man, the amount of room he afforded Tony Kelly the last day was unbelievable , Kelly scored 0-2 and shot 8 wides. A player like Kelly , Noel McGrath , C fennelly will go to town on him as he merely plays the centre , as you say an additional player in behind might help re tracking the runners but it wasnāt effective v Clare or Kk.the fact that Kelly couldnāt hit a barn door on the day camouflaged the issue

No , all missed from play, Iām starting to think you werenāt actually at that game, Kelly missed no free in the first half and Ryan took over in the second half
thatās fine, but it still doesnāt explain why you make up things and more worryingly how the images transpiring in front of you get lost somewhere between yours eyes and the brainā¦oh waitā¦
I know that. They have been truly dreadful, but they got the dander up for kk last year and rooted them up and down the field. Tough game first up, and Iām not talking about scoring here.
Itās extremely heartwarming indeed. But I agree with flatty that itāll be a very tough opener for Kilkenny against them in Nowlan Park though. I expect Offaly to hold Kilkenny to 7 goals or so.

Yeah, It seems Siceās brief departure was down to getting the hump at being dropped and he will be back training this week. According to some lad on Hoganstand, Duane and Concannonās dropping is their own doing and Mulholland canāt be blamed. He goes on to state that he canāt believe that the reason for their dropping hasnāt become public knowledge yet. Now, we must remember that this is Hoganstand weāre talking about here so the reason might be something as trivial as leaving their tea-bags on the sink rather than putting them in the bin, but obviously something has happened. Of course they are both from St. Jamesā so the auld Townie attitude might have got them in a bit of bother (Conroy has Connemara blood and is therefore a thoroughly alright sort). Concannon comes across as a bit of a scamp and heās no great loss anyway, Duane is a big loss though, even if he hasnāt completely lived up to his early promise yet.
Lundy canāt finish for for shit, sounds just like just what we need. Missing O Currain today big time. Results going against us elsewhere but at 8-5 weāre still well in this one with a āgaleforce windā in our favour the 2nd half. Is Finlay injured for Monaghano or what, class act that lad
