Replying To jam83:  "He can't be intercounty level if he struggled so much today. Everyone filled their boots today, did he manage any score? He got easily nudged off a ball too that was more in his favour to win than his marker. He's not out there to just give handpasses back out to the half forward line. You'd wonder how Culhane never starts, though I thought he looked a bit on the big side today.

Galway made a lot of diagonal runs and diagonal passes that cut London apart. Was good to see for a change. Cleaned up in midfield too.
Either they've unleashed the hounds and a brand new attacking gameplan, or London are a bad junior C team."
He struggled badly,didn't score, kicked a very easy chance wide, was bet foremost 50 50 balls...
Can't understand why Cunningham didn't get a run..

Replying To Alwaysencourage:  "No you absolutely can't blame Conor Gleeson for everything at all but you also can't hide from the problems that are there.It should not be personal and I totally agree with you on that.These lads are only doing their best.But there are plenty of people on this forum who get personal when it suits them."
Alwaysencourage(Galway) would want to come up with a more suitable pseudonym to match the negative and discouraging tone of his disparaging comments. The sniping of our excellent goalkeeper Connor Gleeson is tiresome and should stop. Have these people nothing better to do but moan and whinge at every opportunity? Get a life!

You need to grow up.you have been so personal to Conor Flaherty in your comments.I actually was saying to give Conor Gleeson a break.You are the problem not everyone else.

Lots of positives today. Glynn, Silke and Kelly and others get minutes under their belt. Fitzgerald very good apart from one mistake. Darcy could be a dark horse to get minutes later on in the year, he has a lot of doubters but he is a big man, fairly fast, and hard to stop once he gets moving. I know it's division 4 opposition but he had a few similar moments in the league. Molloy looked very sharp when he came on. Lots to work on too which is good. Dunno why Cunningham didn't get a run, he would have made hay in this kind of match

The injuries are the downer. From talking to people at the game today there is a big block of training ahead for the championship so missing so many is not good. For the big score, I thought we lacked a bit of cut up front. Much better second half against the wind, more pace and better lines of running. Good day out for Darcy, McHugh, Heaney, good cameos from O'Flaherty, Molloy and Culhane. We have bigger tests ahead.

We're back with serious momentum and will be very hard to stop. Cein Darcy is benefitting from his move to Judes - strong and plays very direct.

Think back to the 2022 Final and how you felt after. It is now 2025 and our 2 worst performers that day are 2 of our best in a championship match. Very depressing stuff.

Positives?!? FFS…..They were playing London not Dublin. Worthless match.

That's a salient point indeed Cranky, but it's not yet 2025. Did you move your year instead of your clock last weekend perhaps?

We could get a whole bunch of all-stars actually, if we got to play London every weekend.

Let's not get carried away top 4/6 senior club teams in Galway would beat London 2 weeks tome be much tougher test also I definitely would not be getting carried away as regards cian Darcy as a scoring forward he got one score in whole national league as a midfielder he might be ok

Who picked up injuries yesterday? If we've got Comer and Sean Kelly back then we're in an ok situation going into this year's championship
