Replying To Overdahill: "Senior Quarter Finals Clarinbridge v Gort Bridge by 6 - I think Gort have probably played their final Loughrea v Athenry Loughrea by 3 - Champs dig it out, But fitness of Morgan could be huge Craughwell v sarsfields Craughwell by 2 - the upset of the week. The scare against Ardrahan will stand to Craughwell Turloughmore v Tommy Larkins. Turlough by 3 Good lord- so I agree with Katser! Senior Relegation Final Moycullen v Cappataggle Moycullen. I think Cappy are in freefall Intermediate Quarter Finals Mullagh v Ballindeeren Ballindereen by 3 Tynagh Abbey-Duniry v Kilconerion TAD by 5 Portumna v Skehana Mountbellew Moylogh SMM by 5 Meelick-Eyrecourt v Ballygar ME by 10 Intermediate Relegation Final Beagh v Padraig Pearses Beagh dig deep to keep their status" I agree Cappy are goosed and heading down to Intermediate. Beagh are also goosed and heading down to the embarrassing Junior yoke! As for Intermediate absolute belter of games! I expect the Magnificent 4 all East Galway neighbours....Mullagh, Tynagh Abbey-Duniry, Portumna and Meelick-Eyrecourt to reach Semi Finals. Meelick-Eyrecourt and Portumna should comfortably win but WOW Mullagh v Ballindeeren and Tynagh Abbey-Duniry v Kilconerion.....skin and hair flying nothing between them only puck of a ball!!....surely those two games double header in Loughrea with 5000 crowd bouncing with excitement. katser (Galway) - Posts: 2948 - 22/09/2026 13:11:37 2694632 Link

Fixtures Out Intermediate Quarter Finals Saturday 3rd October Loughrea Portumna v Skehana Mountbellew Moylogh Meelick-Eyrecourt v Ballygar Sunday 4th October Gort Mullagh v Ballindeeren Tynagh Abbey-Duniry v Kilconerion Madness Gort won't hold the crowd for that double header, it should have been fixed for Loughrea with the other double header moved to Duggan Park Saturday 3rd October. The Ballinasloe Fair doesn't start till Sunday 4th October!! Gort absolute hell hole to get in or out of with one tiny little road out to the pitch which is way outside the town on the way to the Burren! No proper car park nothing put narrow stone walls each side of the road, with all traffic travelling the same road...joke! katser (Galway) - Posts: 2948 - 26/09/2026 10:23:41 2695092 Link

Traffic will be a nightmare. I'd rather park in the town square and walk it to the pitch. It's not a bad walk. Better than sitting in traffic and you'll get out easier.

Should be a fairly comfortable win for Clarinbridge but I wouldn't like to call the other three quarter finals. Loughrea have a better overall squad than Athenry but they have no one anywhere near big enough in their back line to compete with Rabbitte. He will cause them awful trouble. Sarsfields out for revenge against Craughwell after last year's brilliant quarter final. That's a 50:50 game. Larkins coming in after winning their group and have looked really good but this is the hurdle the usually fall at. Turlough very hot and cold - they had more than 20 wides the last day. They have the backs to keep Flynn and Gardiner quiet but will their forwards keep the scoreboard ticking? Should be a cracking weekend in Athenry for the four games. galway19 (Galway) - Posts: 1119 - 28/09/2026 09:05:47 2695271 Link
