After seeing Derry twice fail to put any kind of challenge to Tyrone in the last two championships I do not see where they will cause another top team such as Mayo any problems. I think Derry have some good players such as Kielt but they do not seem to be getting the best out of the team in big matches.

Derry have a good footballing tradition and have some quality players in the squad. However for whatever reason it hasn't happened for them in the past while and Tyrone beat them very very easily the past 2 years. JoeSoap (Donegal) - Posts: 1432 - 20/06/2017 13:34:13 2002514 Link 1 |
I second this. Anyone know if this game is on TV?

We could keep it tight for the first half however Mayo have more quality all over the park and will be stung back into action following successive Connacht defeats by Galway . Mayo by anywhere from 7-10 points ...I hate to say . johnjoseph (Derry) - Posts: 158 - 20/06/2017 21:19:24 2002811 Link 0 |
Thats the way it would seem but with Rochford who knows what will happen

The feeling is caution...Mayo a poor league but upped it when we needed to against Roscommon, Donegal and Tyrone. The Sligo game was a poor performance, as was Galway. Form is not good at present. We are capable of so much more. Whichever Mayo turns up... yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11232 - 21/06/2017 10:58:42 2002975 Link 0 |
They won't hammer them, they should win for sure.

Mayo's performances against Galway was a lot more impressive than it was last summer so I think Mayo will win comfortably against all their opponents in the qualifiers.

Not sure about that - Mayo were always ahead last year bar a 10min spell when Galway scored 1-4 without reply or something. Outside of that Mayo looked to be in control - this year it looked as though Galway were in control of the game. Mayo will beat Derry though The_DOC (Galway) - Posts: 708 - 21/06/2017 13:57:44 2003061 Link 0 |
Home advantage again for Mayo. That should see them over the line. Killarney.87 (Tipperary) - Posts: 2513 - 21/06/2017 14:02:33 2003066 Link 0 |
That was certainly a higher quality game than what we had last year, Galway are a better team and Mayo produced a far better performance.

Is that an insinuation he's the best 3? If that's the case are Mayo a better team with him back? and surely then you must feel they would won last years all Ireland if he wasn't injured. Have you ever actually seen him do something in a game or are you as deluded as the media who awarded him an all star in 2012

We need Mayo to be focused on the Derry game not like last year when the team was using the qualifiers to try out tactics for the final v Dublin if we were to get that far like playing Kevin McLoughlin as a sweeper, there was no need to use that game plan in the first 3 qualifier games, start that nonsense again this year and we will be caught out riverboys (Mayo) - Posts: 1389 - 21/06/2017 20:44:30 2003252 Link 0 |

Hard to see Derry giving Mayo a tight game, my expectation is that Mayo will win comfortably in the end. Club loyalties and lack of commitment to a County team that most feel is going nowhere is killing them, making it impossible for any manager to make a proper success of them.

Correct and true
