Yeah, a bit surprised with that to be honest. Mickey Harte is doing the same with the Glen lads. Might come back to haunt them later in the year. Good move by Henry though, making Whelan captain; arguably the best hurler in Galway at the moment. He was a super-kid in 2017, now one of the veterans of the team.

Still only 27. Great player!

Anyone know if Joseph Cooney rejoined the Galway panel? He had taken an extended break off and apparently was making a decision on rejoining last week. Concannon and Kevin Cooney injured for foreseeable future as with Liam Collins, time for the forwards waitings on the fringes to step up over the next few weeks Galway456 (Galway) - Posts: 22 - 05/02/2024 23:58:29 2524673 Link 1 |
He is louder on the pitch than off it for Kinvara!

I think I heard Henry Shefflin say last week after the Wexford game that Joseph would be rejoining the panel but didn't mention when that would be.

Handy win for NUIG puts them through to Fitzgibbon semi final. Very strong back line with Darren Morrissey, Tiernan Killeen, Daniel Loftus and Eoin Lawless. Gavin Lee and Colm Molloy got 2-8 from play between them. Finished 4-24 to 1-14. Will be a mighty game if they face UL. galway19 (Galway) - Posts: 677 - 07/02/2024 19:45:21 2525017 Link 1 |
Awesome scoring there. Fair play to them. Galway Abu.

Team which lined out tonight. Playing UL in a repeat of the league final. Should be a belter next week. By far the two best teams in the competition. galway19 (Galway) - Posts: 677 - 07/02/2024 21:23:41 2525031 Link 1 |

Future Galway fullback I'd be reckoning. Not sure he has the pace for cornerback.

Probably should have wrapped them in cotton wool I suppose?Will you stop if anyone would know how long a break players need after winning a club all ireland it's Henry god knows he's been there done that.

Just a small correction - NUIG is now called UG. I don't know why they couldn't just stick to UCG like when I was there in the 80's! They are a good team no doubt but UL appear a lot bigger in key areas and are dangerous up front. Even though UCC put it up to them last night for large spells and were 4 points up with about 5 mins gone in the second half, eventually UL wore them down and dominated the last 30 mins or so to win comfortably.

UCG was too easy I guess. Great match ahead I'd say. I think Galway will take them in a close one. Hon the Tribe!

Interesting team for Galway for Sunday. Should be a tight one against Tipp as usual. Trump2020 (Galway) - Posts: 2124 - 10/02/2024 13:36:10 2525313 Link 0 |
If I was to take a stab at the team come championship this is what I think it might look like. Maroonforever (Galway) - Posts: 414 - 10/02/2024 13:41:59 2525314 Link 1 |
Full back line will be under pressure tomorrow hopefully they all play well. Don't think Sean Linnane and Tom Monaghan are up to this level but hope I'm proven wrong. Need a big game from Flynn tomorrow Glennon at 7 is interesting has played in a lot of positions Kevin Cooney a big loss.

I think Monaghan has been one of Galway's better players in the last few years. Not convinced about John Cooney - for a big man he doesn't win possession too often. The jury is also still out on the likes of Grealish, Fahy, Glennon and Linnane but like you and many posters often say "I hope I'm proven wrong"!

Sean Linnane was the reason Noel McGrath didn't puck a ball in the quarter final last year.

I'd say Monahan has been a standout the last couple years What I find remarkable is for a man of his stature he fairly takes the hits and keeps going rallenmchugh (Galway) - Posts: 21 - 10/02/2024 16:23:22 2525331 Link 1 |
