Ref making a cunt of this game

All the Galway fb line on yellows now

Big massive lads doing loads of fouling and a few class lads in the forwards

Joseph Cooney gets his first point. 1-12 to 0-8 in additional time.

Davy’s mini me in the shorts is some clown

1-12 to 0-9 halftime

Barry Kelly must have had a couple of carverys already today. Hardly fit enough to be umpire at this stage

Think Wexford can feel slightly aggreved with the ref here over the last few minutes. Touhy got a free out for a debatable push in the back while Rory O’Connor clearly pushed when down over the ball and he gives a sideline ball against him

:grin::grin:. Good lad

Wouldnt mind but he actually played the ball off the Galway player so it should have went the other way

Do you disagree?

This ref is dire blowing everything. Average enough from us and we’re beaten on the ground a lot, just way better forwards. Not over thpugh. Tuohy messing with the helmet again but took a few hard digs from morris before it.

That’s as much as I’m biting now sling your hook

Ollie and JJ must have got a good deal on the suits.

I felt Galway were much better off breaking ball and second ball. Wexford sloppy enough in picking the ball and being punished. They look nervous in some of their play. Some awful shooting and shot selections.

Conor cooney is in some form

Imagine if he was reffing Kilkenny in their rugby,helmet pulling, 12 steps, spare arm and hurley throwing days. Ffs Cody would have Reuters news agency deployed against him.

Galway not as direct from open play, more from the puckouts and placed balls. They’re dropping bodies back the field and getting lots of pressure on Reck and the other Wexford runners when they try to break up the field. Wexford have hit a few bad wides as well, this could easily be closer.

I’d say they’re as bad as each other for fouling, only Galway can get more of an impact in their challenges.

I suppose we have the lads to take scores immediately off winning a break so it looks good but a few of these long puck outs have fallen into 50/50 balls and wexford have won them. No physicality allowed at all in though, tuohy is a liability on a card id take him off. We are definitely looking for goals but im not sure was there a reason to change the formula.

The ref is ruining this. He’s biased towards wexford as well. The gunt.
