Minor and 20s last year both knocked out by 1 point losses, would always factor underage into that mentality of eeking out wins

They were pure exceptions though. We paid for the 2004 win for the next 10 odd years with regular hammerings being dished out
As you said, good to see 20s win this year. And some of those were 2019 minors weren’t they? Far more even than it’s ever been in my lifetime anyway. One good thing Davy gave us

He’s about to vomit with the scutter on show.

I’d mentioned here earlier in the week that Whelan needed to be moved further out from goal, was pleased to see him play well today as he is far too good a talent to be wasted in the way they had been using him. I’d also mentioned that the Mannion brothers are of dubious character recently, I didn’t see much today to change my mind on that.
My follow up observation is that every day Conor Cooney starts for Galway is a wasted day - he was a fine hurler in his day but he contributes nothing at all now. Even if they tried one of their younger lads and he got cleaned you could say he is getting experience and will improve from it, I don’t see what Shefflin thinks he is getting by having CC suffering on the field.

Buckley could have thrown over the handy point to draw it - ballsy decision to go for the throat
It was a two point game, no?

Fair dues - It’s been a long weekend - after winning the third round of the European hurling championship (9 a side) yestrerday in Dresden, we were on the road at 8 am this morning to get back to the Pyg in time for both games. Be the time the main event cam on I had a clatter of large bottles in me - I danced and sung me way through Luxembourg on the way home.
HON THE FUCKIN CATS
