Minors well beaten last night. In fairness I think it was said well before this that this years crop were far from a vintage side.

You won it 2022 with Rio Mortimer and a few others. Then won again in 23,24. Galway also have a few of their 2022 minors on their current U20 team, a crop that lost twice to Mayo in Connacht and then beat Mayo in the All-Ireland final in Hyde Park.

Your Minors well beaten last night but will be interesting to see how you react to that defeat. This time last year we beat you by 9 points yet you recovered to reach the All-Ireland semi-final.

Mortimer was the only one playing in 2022 that's still U20 now so hardly a big factor.

Will Kobe McDonald start the championship for Andy Moran? Looks to be doing the business for the 20s. Might have found his level with the physicality of senior could it be a year too early for him at the senior level?

Will ye come looking for Shane Moran in the next year or two? He seems to be a top quality coach. Did he ever manage charlestown at any stage?

I could wrong, but think he was only involved at under age level with Charlestown
