Some win by Glaveys, to score 3-14 and win by 8 points against the best in Galway is not often seen by any Roscommon club in a Connacht final. Glennon MOTM again closely followed by Hussey,Fitzmaurice,Comer and Heneghan. On the evidence of the last few games it will take a very good side to beat them in the All Ireland series.

Well done to Michael Glaveys. A very well deserved Connacht title. To beat the best of Mayo and Galway is no mean feat. reffingmad (Roscommon) - Posts: 371 - 19/11/2017 19:47:51 2063031 Link
Great result and performance from Glaveys. The late Dermot Earley would have been a very proud and happy man if he was around yesterday. Glaveys were full value for their margin of victory, Claregalway couldn't cope with Glaveys speed and movement and the superb Hyde park surface for this time of year suited their style of play. They won almost every individual battle across the field, a special mention on Andy Glennon, 0-9 scored 7 from play not only was his high scoring in a provincial final impressive but his work rate and energy was a key feature also. Yesterday was the 4th provincial won by a Roscommon team in 2017 hopefully 2018 will bring the same if not more success like that. ispeakwisdom (Roscommon) - Posts: 2487 - 20/11/2017 17:29:46 2063115 Link
U20 Div 1 championship semi finals on tomorrow, Brigids v Clann at 12 and Dominics v Pearses at 2pm. Its looking like a repeat of the 2015 minor final Clann v Pearses but maybe Brigids will have a sting in their tail. A pity the two semi finals aren't a double header in one venue.

Some shabby analysing discounting a good Doms team.

Replying To moros: "Some shabby analysing discounting a good Doms team. Well done to the Knockcroghery/Ballymurray/Rahara/ club on reaching the under 20 final...great win for them" It was win totally out of the blue one of the biggest shock results of club season. Pearses minor champions of 2015 and minor finalists 2016 and last week they beat Brigids U20s. A great win for them a rare Div one final for Doms and few would have predicted that after their group defeat to Clann by a margin of 20 points! Fine bounce back from defeat from Brigids against Clann in the other semi final they indeed had that sting in their tail and will now be favorites to win their first U20/21 title for 8 years The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 3762 - 26/11/2017 17:16:15 2063620 Link

Dominics will obviously test Brigids but I would expect it will be another trophy coming to Kiltoom to add to the Senior, Junior, Minor and Under 16. rossie1996 (Roscommon) - Posts: 143 - 27/11/2017 13:47:15 2063775 Link
Better team Brigids won today...winning can become a habit...doms deficient up front. moros (Roscommon) - Posts: 1080 - 03/12/2017 18:14:02 2064336 Link
Congrats to Brigids and hard luck to Dominics Brigids just about did enough to grab the win, 1-8 3fs (9 scores) will tell you they got nothing easy today. Dominics took the goal chances that came their way in the semi final but today they didn't and will be left to rue those missed chances now. Next Sundays Div 2 final Tulsk v St Ciarans promises to be a good game The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 3762 - 03/12/2017 19:07:41 2064341 Link

Does anybody know if TG4 plans to show Glaveys A.I. Semi Final later ? ...be interesting to know how it was decided to show only the other Semi Final live !!! michael (Cork) - Posts: 381 - 23/01/2018 17:12:02 2070163 Link
Replying To michael: "Does anybody know if TG4 plans to show Glaveys A.I. Semi Final later ? ...be interesting to know how it was decided to show only the other Semi Final live !!!" I would say it was decided on the taught the other semi would have been of greater interest to the neutral due to Mark O'Se and paudies son coming up against the Cavanaghs.

I wonder is that also the reason why the Gaeltacht / Moy game is fixed for Semple stadium while the Glaveys game is at a club ground in Mullingar ? yelowbelly (Wexford) - Posts: 409 - 23/01/2018 17:50:26 2070174 Link
Congratulations to Michael Glaveys on a historic win in a great game of good football. Ballinlough parish have made history and march on to Croke Park for the A.I. Final tomorrow week. !!! michael (Cork) - Posts: 381 - 27/01/2018 15:43:58 2071075 Link

Replying To michael: "Congratulations to Michael Glaveys on a historic win in a great game of good football. Ballinlough parish have made history and march on to Croke Park for the A.I. Final tomorrow week. !!!" I'd like to echo that point, michael. While I'm obviously disappointed with the result, it was a very good game in decent conditions (for January). I really hope they can go on and finish the job in style next weekend. yelowbelly (Wexford) - Posts: 409 - 27/01/2018 20:24:08 2071157 Link
Very well done to Glaveys. Deserved win in a tough and highly competitive semi final. Heneghan,Hussey the stand out players today and Mattie Forde in his late 30s still showing his class. Moy Tir na nOg of Tyrone are next and they are ultra defensive team which won't suit Glaveys who want to play a free flowing game but its great to be in the All Ireland final in Croke Park and with a bit of luck hopefully Glaveys with will it. ispeakwisdom (Roscommon) - Posts: 2487 - 28/01/2018 00:51:10 2071234 Link
Best of luck in the final. Hopefully the cup stays west of the Shannon for a second year. When the FBD league games used to take place in Ballinlough I was always impressed with how well run the event and the ground etc were. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11236 - 29/01/2018 19:41:28 2072146 Link
Moy from Tyrone are spoilers and will be trying everything and anything to slow down Glaveys fast moving game. Hopefully the wide open spaces of Croke park will suit Glaveys and the ref is strong one that doesn't fall for any antics. The best of luck to Glaveys tomorrow the county is behind you.
