Replying To Drax_the_destroyer:  "All fair points just the previous poster odd view saying Beirne couldn't be brought on with the U20s in action on Wednesday while Kobe played the full game.

Paddy Tally was talked up as a big addition in the media when brought in yet it was mainly ignored he was involved with Derry last year and they didn't win a league or championship game and they conceded big scores in lots of games. A was a decent coach under the old rules and has struggled under the current rules.

Andy talking about year 1 is daft. Inter county management is a results business and should Mayo make an exit before the last 8 stage and lose in a similar manner to Sunday then I don't see Moran in charge of Mayo in 2027."

Replying To MayoDan:  "You clearly missed my point again.. there was no point bringing Beirne on instead of Cillian as we were 7 down at that stage so the game was over.

Beirne probably should have replaced McHale at half time however."

Replying To Drax_the_destroyer:  "If that's your point it's not a very good one again... 7 points down nowadays isn't what it use to be with the old rules.

Beirne featured in the majority of games in the league for Mayo and then to not get at least some minutes off the bench was very odd. To make matters worse Mayo got a few frees on the left hand side 2nd half that would surely be taken on by Beirne if on the field instead they were kicked short."

Replying To Dunmore10:  "What about cavan last year"

Replying To Galwayman67420:  "Looking through green and red tinted glasses i feel..... Mayo havent got a great record against the dubs, galway, roscommon, derry, cork, roscommon, they usually scrape by Leitrim nut they do struggle with roscommon."

Aiden O shea has been playing full forward since 2015.
Bar one game against Sligo, there has never been a proper plan to kick the ball in long to him.
He offers no pace, no danger. Just "a good man to burst up the play". That's it. This isn't news, its been like this for 11 years.
Hennelly made an all star out of David Moran in 2014 by kicking everything to him down in limerick. He cost Mayo the game v Dublin in 2015 replay when he was trying to kick the ball out while messing around with his gloves. I wont even mention 2016 replay. He has never been able to withstand pressure on his kickout.

The Mayo team can be as hard to get off as it is to get on.
There is a very good case for dropping 10+ players and not playing any of the subs that came on ever again.

Hennelly, Coyne, Brickenden, Hession, Loftus, McBrien, Touhy, Flynn, Carney, O Shea and McHale - could all be dropped and not have much to dispute. Conroy, O Connor, Boland and Ruane - none of them made a blind bit of difference to the game. Thats at least 16 players who cant complain if they were dropped.

Moran needs to remember - Mayo were beaten at home to Roscommon by 10 points at home ad gave up in the 2nd half.
The opportunity to gut that team and start fresh is staring him in the face."
