You may go back and read my posts again. I never questioned the quality of our championship in Roscommon.

Gutted for Boyle. Was sure Donie Smith had won it for them. Have to hand it to Pearses though, another extra time win. Their shooting efficiency is excellent. FullOfPorter (Roscommon) - Posts: 603 - 03/10/2026 23:29:53 2696070 Link 0 |

Pearses only had 2 or 3 wides over 80 minutes! Boyle kicked a lot of wides in the 3rd Quarter. Seanfan (Roscommon) - Posts: 958 - 04/10/2026 11:22:51 2696090 Link 0 |

How was there another minute and a half to play after the Donie Smith free. The allotted 3 minutes injury time was up after the Pearses goalie kicked the ball out.

Wide count in 80 mins in the Quarter-Final Glaveys 12 Pearses 0 In the semi-final yesterday Boyle 12 Pearses 2 Shooting efficiency of Pearses has been very impressive ever since they left the Connacht title behind them in Sligo with poor Shooting efficiency.

Straightforward win for Éire Og to reach the Intermediate Final. Conor Cox to the fore again. Sets up interesting final with Tulsk. The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 4501 - 04/10/2026 14:40:59 2696105 Link 0 |

Competitive half of football in Dr Hyde Park. From 5 behind on 25 minutes Brigids finish the half strongly to lead by 1. 0-10 to 2-3. The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 4501 - 04/10/2026 16:04:58 2696112 Link 0 |

Agreed. This was one of the questionable calls that went against them. That said there was a delay for the Boyle free before that but not enough to warrant what was played. But here is the difference. If the shoe was on the other foot, pearses would not have permitted another Boyle attack, through whatever means necessary. Boyle just not ruthless enough

A competitive half does not mean a competitive game. Men against boys I am afraid. Hopefully the final is close but Pearses have never beaten Brigids in a final.

It was a competitive half and competitive for 40 minutes as Strokestown led 2-6 to 0-11 Aided by a Og Brigids took the lead on 41 minutes and ran away with it against a totally deflated and out of puff Strokestown team in the final 20 minutes. 40th to 64th minute Brigids highly impressive to win 3-22 to 2-8 showed why they are defending county and provincial champions in those final 24 minutes of action The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 4501 - 04/10/2026 16:56:50 2696121 Link 0 |

It was a competitive for 40 minutes Brigids better fitness and strength in depth allowed to show their true worth there after. You have a strange idea to what is competitive with previous remarks on low quality Leitrim matches you watch. Gaa_lover (USA) - Posts: 4090 - 04/10/2026 17:16:28 2696124 Link 0 |

Time to end that statistic.

Not sure why my last post at full time wasn't published. You replied to a half time post. It was competitive game in the 1st half which was the case for 10 minutes into the 2nd half. Brigids then showed why they are defending Champions of Roscommon and County and only lost by 1 point after extra time in the All-Ireland final. The type of quality that Strokestown had no answer to from the 40th to 64th minute. So a repeat of last years competitive final that took a replay to find a winner. As for that stats Pearses hadn't beaten any team in a final until 2019. Tulsk v Éire Og Intermediate final and St Aidans v Ballinameen Junior A final have the potential to be good competitive games. I would expect our three Champions will be competitive in the Connacht championship once again. The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 4501 - 04/10/2026 22:08:58 2696168 Link 0 |

Gaels may end up the closest team in actual knock out football Which tells u really how good brigids are. They've hammered a young Gaels team dripping with Connacht underage champions u17/20 The antihalation of a strokestown team last years Connacht intermediate champions and a team with neary who I personally believe is Now the best pound for pound baller any position in roscommon tells you all you need about how good brigids are at this moment Pearses if there not ahead at the 45 minutes point are also in for a day similar to probably the Gaels 8 to 10 off OhtobeARossie (Roscommon) - Posts: 1831 - 04/10/2026 22:46:39 2696173 Link 0 |

Junior probably will be Senior most likely brigids will be odds on to win it Intermediate standard this year is below the years of faitleachs, strokestown etc and would need overall Connacht intermediate to be of a lower standard this year for either Eire og or tulsk to win it.

Not sure that Gaels team are as good as they could be with underage success. The only thing that might stand to Pearses is they've had a much tougher route in my opinion. Glaveys and Boyle are better outfits than Gaels and Strokestown. If they don't sort out the middle of the park though I don't think they can topple Brigid's this year.

Took in the Brigids Strokestown game. Brigids extremely impressive in last 20 minutes, champagne football. Strokestown put it up to them for first 40 but it felt like Brigids were toying with them a bit up until that and really upped the ante for the last third of the game. It's the final I predicted at the start of the year and should be an absolute cracker. Pearses have done it the hard way but they are there and have a fighting chance. One poster published the wide count from Glaveys and Boyle which was interesting, you can be guaranteed Brigids will be more economical and accurate than both teams which could spell trouble for Pearses.

Will be closer than that in the final. Pearses too clever and match fit to loose by a big margin to Brigid's. Brigid's can be got at. Starting first with their keeper who looks very suspect under a high ball. Comparing a raggle taggle Gaels to a Pearses challenge is way off the mark. I'd say Brigid's by 2 in the final but wouldn't be surprised if Pearses pull off what some think is the impossible.
