Replying To Pope_Benedict: "This is quite a serious charge surely. A management team that doesn't have the gumption to adapt to the new rules. And we want to extend that management team?" This is Galway, so as always expect the county board to do the wrong thing, they'll probably extend Joyces's tenure for another three years, and tell him that he can go whenever he has had enough. We lost our chance last season, and looking at the way Donegal & Kerry are now playing, there is not a hope we will win an All Ireland under Joyce. gilly1910 (Galway) - Posts: 186 - 15/07/2025 17:08:19 2625899 Link

Replying To Eire89: "We all seen what Jim McG did with Kevin Cassidy this is level of ruthlessness and mindset tht is needed to win Sam also it does not sit well with me that many players are on a flight a day or 2 later to play ball in U.S were they approached before champo etc." We all seen what Dublin did with Diarmuid Connolly and Clare with Shane O'Donnell too. You are talking absolute nonsense. Seamus Flanagan appearing with BBC multiple AI winner. And what if they were approached before championship it's a great way to spend summer if they are free. most go on holiday anyway as been flat out training to entertain the likes of you Your obsession what they do in there free time is odd. Comer was at Wimbledon too last week which I'm sure is worthy of capital punishment to you. Some fella called Fenton is out there playing he must have a terrible mindset. Do you want these lads not to lead a life outside GAA As another fella said I hope you have no involvement with teams with your mindset jm25 (Galway) - Posts: 1628 - 15/07/2025 17:56:51 2625915 Link
Replying To WonTon5: "This year's Senior Club Championship is shaping up to be a fascinating one and what it might tell us about the future of Galway football. A host of players who have shone in the underage ranks are now stepping onto the senior club stage, and for some, this could be the year they firmly put their hand up for county selection. Some of the names to watch from each club: Salthill-Knocknacarra - Charlie Power Mountbellew/Moylough - Ciaran Mulhern St. Michael's - Conal Gallagher Oughterard - Adam Tierney Maigh Cuilinn - Conor Corcoran Bhearna na Forbach - Sean Dunne St. James - Jack Folan Killannin - Ryan Roche Dunmore MacHales - Jake Slattery Annaghdown - Daithi Kilcommins Tuam Stars - Ronan Colleran Claregalway - Luc O'Connor Corofin - Patrick Egan Monivea-Abbey - Glenn Kelly Leitir Móir - Fionn Mac Donnacha Milltown - Padraic Goodwin" Not senior club but if Kyle Gilmore has a good year for Cortoon he won't be far off the number one jersey next year for Galway. galway19 (Galway) - Posts: 941 - 15/07/2025 19:03:35 2625925 Link

People over reacting as usual, Kerry hammered by Meath and Donegal lost to Tyrone and just about beat the worst Mayo team in the last 15 years. Everyone touting Armagh as the hot favourites less then 3 weeks ago and they were hammered by Kerry, If Armagh keep the same panel they won't be far away next year and neither will Galway. We once again had no luck with the group with 4 of the best 8 teams in the country in the same group and then clearly a very tired and flat performance after playing 3 times in 3 weeks. To what extent that took its toil physically and mentally we don't know but it certainly didn't help. TheBishop (Galway) - Posts: 297 - 16/07/2025 10:55:35 2626020 Link

As a Mayo man said recently you can't throw too many stones now ye are as bad us and ye are taking over as "celebrity losers" pretty sure Joe Brolly write that about the Mayo team. Eire89 (Galway) - Posts: 372 - 17/07/2025 07:21:04 2626205 Link

Replying To galway19: "Not senior club but if Kyle Gilmore has a good year for Cortoon he won't be far off the number one jersey next year for Galway." He'll be far off the Galway jersey as he is going abroad... Belclare7 (Galway) - Posts: 343 - 17/07/2025 14:09:01 2626256 Link
Replying To Belclare7: "He'll be far off the Galway jersey as he is going abroad..." The mention of a goalie emerging from the clubs sounds good if it happens, but I think Joyce's brutal honesty after matches is doing more harm than good. He'd probably ruin a new goalie's confidence in jig time after any kind of rocky performance. jam83 (Galway) - Posts: 210 - 17/07/2025 23:27:25 2626326 Link
