Yes obviously not! Scrambling at halftime but still some baffling decisions. Some very good hurlers barely got a look all year. I think that's sometimes the issue with minor managers moving to U20, in their first couple of years they have an awful lot of loyalty to "their lads". In this case many very very young players Kinvara (Galway) - Posts: 149 - 16/05/2024 11:06:42 2545064 Link 2 |

Dublin were very good. Galway did get in to it but a poor setup cost the goals at the start and end of the game Well deserved winners, looking foward to see how those young lads get on when they make the step to play for the footballers!

"The last thing you'd want to see is Dublin winning the hurling, they'd be unbearable", an Offaly hurler said to me last year! It's breaking out in Barney already!

Management are clueless in the Galway u20 set up, taking off our top scorer (Dolly) then moving the Centre Back (Burke) into the forwards and leaving a massive (hole) for Dublin to run right through. katser (Galway) - Posts: 2285 - 16/05/2024 13:48:00 2545107 Link 1 |

That U20 performance was beyond shocking. Seems like the current management have not learned from the previous management by sticking with the same players that they managed at minor grade. This has resulted in a squad that is too young to compete at u20 level, missed opportunity for the 20 and 19 year olds and taken the confidence of the younger players in being able to compete at this level and obviously senior level.

Usual aul bigotry nonsense.. Yeah, yeah, we'll be insufferable when theres a only a fraction for the hurling support and most Dub fans wouldn't even know there was a U20 hurling match on.. never mid start crowing a out it Sure just look at us falling over ourselves to brag... ffs It will be a great thing for the core hurling supporters of the City, who are a very loyal and dedicated core support who've only enjoyed a tiny bit of success compared to the football support Imagine.. imagine them being proud of winning an AI and perhaps vocalising that.. f**king b******s Spare us that **** Baire.. jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20614 - 16/05/2024 15:19:22 2545129 Link 4 |

You're only assuming that they didn't learn. One could also assume that they did learn, and still chose to take the selection route they took. You'd certainly like to think that they learned a few things last night though, because it looked like they had a lot to learn.

Hard to believe with all Skehills chat he'd be a part of such a poor u20 team. CillTormoir (Galway) - Posts: 494 - 16/05/2024 17:52:46 2545169 Link 1 |

So in a roundabout way you agree that they did not learn!

Arah go away with your bigotry nonsense! That's what Barney calls slagging and says it's part of the game. He's constantly slagging Galway, throwing digs in other words, and when he comes in here on the Galway thread boasting about hammering the bejasus out of a team of teenagers, what's does he expect us to do, clap him on the back?

I see the Pope is confusing himself again and tying himself up in knots. Will he ever learn? At this stage, probably not!

To settle a mild argument can any one tell me where the Galway After Match Banquet held in 1980?

Jayus. There was us worried ye might suffer delusions of grandeur but instead ye are suffering from acute inferiority complex! Turn up for the books. A lad comes on after winning a Leinster semi final and is upset because the manager and a couple of posters didn't pat ye on the head and say there's a good boy. I felt both points were justified. Why the long break less so. But missing the best underage hurler we have had in a long time, along with two lads who are in their last year U20 was very relevant. 50% if the forward line that started against Dublin a mere 5 weeks ago wiped one. One of them scoring 2-8 in that game. Coming onto a Galway forum expecting us to be raining superlatives down on the opposition you will not find. In general we are a moany bunch a long time on the road. We have enough of our own issues. That is what we like to discuss. SamandLiamSoon (Galway) - Posts: 611 - 17/05/2024 10:16:34 2545213 Link 6 |

Thank goodness you're monitoring around to keep us on track here. I'd be lost without your value add.
