Replying To Gearoid1998ffowaed: "I agree with this.
I'm married in Moycullen, moved there few years ago with my wife and it's mad to think lads who have been there longer than me are being talked about on this forum.
To start, I think Tom Clarke is a "real Moycullen" lad, as in his grandparents were from there.
Gallagher and Walsh are always around the village , they live in a housing estate there for about 10 years and would be very integrated.
Finally, I would agree the home grown talent is next level. You're looking at the likes of Fionn McDonagh, Ger Davoren, Dessie Connelly, Peter Cooke, Sean o connor, Sean kelly, paul kelly, conor corcoran - all are definitely playing on a level that is inter county, starting panel level. They're all shooting 2 pointers. David Wynne and Eoin kelly are serious defenders. Eoin has saved more goals than their goalie.
Best of luck to them all this weekend." We moved to Moycullen in 2008 our 3 eldest children went to school locally and within a year they were all about the football team and the county and all ireland club championship ( they knew nothing about intermediate or senior )a couple of years later it was hurling, so when 2020 arrived it was their dreamland.They now wonder why there is so much bad feeling being directed towards the lads they knew from down at the pitch or in the local shops.Attitudes seem to to have become very bitter since we moved at the end of 2023 south to Co Tipperary, they are young adults now but they still talk about the welcome and inclusion that Moyculen offered so maybe that's the reason players gravitate towards them, pre 2020 no medal hunters would even consider them. We hope to be in Pearse Stadium as often as possible to add some positive feelings towards Galway GAA.We moved on but can never leave.

Replying To Avensis2012: "just home from america last night , hoping to bring my young buck to his first drumreilly game tonight agaisnt kiltubrid , they were both senior teams when i was last home but im more shocked by how st marys are now a junior club. Will they even beat aughnasheelan. Surely for a county town they should be atleast a low senior club. None of their young players when i was last home have developed through. There was a u21 i remeber i think his name was christy , can anyone confirm if that was him i seen singing wonderwall on carrick bridge at half 8 thursday morning. Hopefully fenagh lose also" You're home from America last night and you were on Carrick bridge Thursday morning. Some going.

Looking forward to the All Insihowen Intermediate Final tomorrow, expecting it to be a cracker. Great day for our peninsula. Very hard to call. Wouldn't rule out a replay. Muff have a very young team and think that Carn's little bit more experience overall might get get them across the line. Would be a fantastic achievement if they went back to back on Junior and Intermediate for both teams. Don't think it has ever been done before?
Na Rossa seem to be raging hot favourites for the Junior today. But Urris have always been hardy men and won't roll over. There's always greater scrutiny in finals so I wouldn't expect Na Rossa to get away with their usual tactics.

I cannot however confirm if a random man you seen singing wonderwall on Carrick bridge on Thursday was called Christy. I'll ask him his name if I see him again and get back to you ASAP

Replying To WanPintWin: "Nothing strange about it. Anyone following recent years would have seen SMM as a real threat at Intermediate. Bearing in mind that we have a proper senior now of 16 teams, it shows the improvement SMM have made, that they're close to reaching it.
Sylane have looked much more impressive than Abbey in Junior so far. That's not to say they'll win it, but they've performed much better to date.
Your rankings seem about 20 years out of date in some cases." With regards to Kilconeiron and Mullagh in Intermediate and Abbeyknockmoy in Junior, its like cycling a bike uphill against the wind for the group stages....slow and steady, but then for cycling downhill with the wind for the knockout stages they have the momentum and are clicking into gear at full pace.
SMM and Meelick-Eyrecourt and also Sylane seem to go full throttle uphill for the group games and now the chain will come flying off!!

Mullagh are improving from the group stage games but I'd be surprised if they can hold that Skehana Mountbellew Moylough forward line at all. The two Lohans, McDonagh and Roche on paper should be way too strong up front at intermediate level. They've all played for Galway at underage or senior level.
