Replying To letsgetgoing:  "Cork having won the All Ireland last year had the older and much more experienced team. Based on both starting teams, Cork had 7 players aged 18 while Roscommon only had 4. Roscommon had 4 players aged 16 while Cork only had 3.
Roscommon should have a good minor team next year with some of this year's All Ireland winning under 16 team stepping up, so some positives on a disappointing day.

Well done to Cork on a well deserved win."
It's been a great year. Connacht is hard won and will be again in 2027. To beat Mayo twice as this group of U18s did was impressive as was the manner and margin the Ulster champions Down was beaten

If we scales the heights of reaching the All-Ireland final again the girls underage again will hopefully learn alot from that experience yesterday. Main thing for me is the amount of good quality players coming through and hopefully as many as possible go on to be good senior players.

Congratulations to Mayo. They have done it by sheer persistance and refusal to give up. Must be a lesson there for a few other counties

This success will do wonders for Connacht Football. Twenty five years is far too long

Huge lesson in mentality and ambition. One of the players said after the game Morans objective this year was going up the steps of the Hoganstand.

Kerry were stuck to the ground but congrats to Mayo who showed great energy and appetite. Shows Roscommon and many other counties what can be done. 2027 is another year for all.
