Replying To jam83: "I saw some of those. Handpass limit will be very hard for a ref to police on top of everything else. If McStay doesn't change the free rule whereby you just leave the ball on the ground instead of having to hand it back, they're not looking properly at what actually needs fixing." That rule works perfectly well and the lads who break it deserve the 50m punishment Claretandblue (Westmeath) - Posts: 2781 - 03/09/2026 23:04:36 2692629 Link

Internal Kevin O'Brien Kevin Walsh Gary Delaney Donal O'Flatharta Paul Conroy(other counties have done this) Anthony Cunningham Cathal Clancy Outside James Horan Jim Gavin Eamon Fitzmaurice Stephen Rochford Dessie Dolan That group of players need a Jim Gavin, someone the opposite to PJ and I don't mean that in a disrespectful way but just a total reset. smallfrank (Galway) - Posts: 628 - 04/09/2026 07:01:01 2692640 Link

Surely Kevin Johnston is on that list as well. Youhavetoreallywantit (Galway) - Posts: 3 - 04/09/2026 09:13:57 2692647 Link

Replying To Youhavetoreallywantit: "Surely Kevin Johnston is on that list as well." 100%, he's actually my first choice. Must have been too many Kevin's and slipped my mind smallfrank (Galway) - Posts: 628 - 04/09/2026 10:18:55 2692658 Link
Replying To Claretandblue: "That rule works perfectly well and the lads who break it deserve the 50m punishment" Players have been blackguarded by handing the ball but then the opposition deliberately barge in and knock it from his hand, making it look like he dropped it and then being penalised 50m. Remember Dingle doing this in either the club Munster final or All Ireland semi final. It happened too much last year for a completely avoidable grey area. Fouling player too has to stand and wait until someone takes it off him. Leave the ball on the ground and no more grey areas. jam83 (Galway) - Posts: 242 - 04/09/2026 10:49:44 2692664 Link
Galway don't have top level coaches being hired by other counties, bar Kevin O'Brien with Scotstown and Kevin Walsh with Cork. I'd like a manager to have been outside the county to learn his trade. Andy Moran was apparently well regarded as a forwards coach in Monaghan, it showed in their fast attacks. Id have Kevin Walsh only if he had someone like Jason Sherlock for the attack. Need a proper forwards coach. jam83 (Galway) - Posts: 242 - 04/09/2026 11:04:29 2692668 Link
