Replying To GalwaysFinest:  "Wouldnt worry about that as a metric to be honest.

Galway Bay always have their favourites, some lads get on that team by just togging out.

Ollie Turner and Johnny Higgins have a soft spot for the same individuals."
Fair enough. Can't get to every game so its the only way for me really to have a gauge as to who's playing well.

Replying To TheFlaker:  "Fitzmaurice is a smart guy and comes across well. Liked by pretty much everyone and that helps when things are not going well. There's 5 or 6 teams that can win Sam now and Galway are definitely one of them."
Can you name those 5 or 6.

Mayo, Kerry, Tyrone, Dublin, Donegal.
All could potentially win it. There are more, but those 5 definitely have a shot.
If someone name Mayo as a potential winner 4 months ago, they'd have been told they were dreaming.

If Fitzmaurice is confirmed, I really hope he brings in his own management team and that we don't simply see people from the previous setup retained again. There are one or two who, in my opinion, have been held in far higher regard than their contribution has warranted, and if some of the names being mentioned here are involved again, it risks becoming more of the same.

What's needed now is a genuine clean slate. A completely fresh management team with no previous loyalties, biases or preconceived ideas about individual players or particular clubs. Every player should be judged on what they can offer going forward.

This needs to be a proper fresh start from top to bottom, not just a new manager with a bit of tinkering around the edges.

Yep pretty much what I would have replied.
