Was reading mayo had trials last weekend they are looking at giving trial to 50 players who were not in the 40 from last year , I wonder would our management consider this because whatever way they have being dining it last few years it not working it's actually being a disaster, so personally I think bring in 30-40 lads and give them fair trials ,, it seems it's actually harder get off the panel than anything, lots good players in intermediate championship as well ,

You would love to see it in Galway , have 4/5 teams like they have and run it over two weekends. I think in Tipp its free entry but raising money for local charitys.
Connemara ( Moycullen, Kilanin, Oughterard, Clonbur, Carna, Renvyle , Clifden, L Mor,Ros Muc, Crua , MB, Spideal ,
City , Salthill, Micheals, James, OranMore, Claregalway, Eire Og, Annaghdown,Bearna
North : Corofin, Tuam, Caherlistrane Headford, Kilconly, Milotown, Cortoon, Dunmore
East : Blose, Caltra, Ballygar, Garbriels, Athnery ,Monivea, Menlouh, Moutbellew,
I know i have left clubs out, and some would be in different places like Bearna should be in Conamara etc. But it would be something different . In tipp they have strong mentors for each team, lads playing who arent on the County Senior Panel , and its giving them a shop window. I think they have 2 Semi Finals and then a Final .
I can feel the negative responses coming along already :)" That is a fantastic idea. So it definitely wont get any traction with the Galway management or county board.

It's actually a very good idea so definitely not happening in Galway they might actually find a few descent players ,, personally I think Galway will struggle in division 2 this year , if Shane Walsh or Sean Kelly get inj it could be division 3 ,,

Claregalway Football
I was talking a local GAA man in North Galway and I was saying that the power base of underage football is moving towards Claregalway and away from more traditional clubs. His response surprised me " they should be winning a lot more as they have got 3 parishes with large populations playing with them, Claregalway/Carnmore, Turloughmore and Castlegar and even some clarinbridge children used to play with them, and here we are with 5-6 children per year and they have over 70, how can we compete. when we play even their second team they hammer us. The children are just giving up football or just wont turn up"
My thoughts are if they have such big number should the Galway GAA be trying to set up football clubs in Castlegar and Turloughmore to accommodate the children in those parishes and level the playing field. Only seems fair.
Surely Football clubs in Galway should be objecting to the permission to play list every year that goes into Claregalway. The permission to play was there to accommodate the 2-3 players from one parish who dont have a sport or team in their own parish. Surely this is abuse of the system. 70 per year versus 5-6 or even 15-20 is nuts. Not the GAA way.

I heard they were pulling from 3 hurling clubs bit wanted to be sure.. wow.. lads from the city playing out in Claregalway. No wonder they are winning all around them at minor.
They had over 60 at minor level this year .. 60!!

They actually published a survey recently regarding a big dispute in Claregalway village about the removal of a grass pitch at Lakeview and they said they had 124 coaches. Some clubs don't have 124 members including underage and adult players and non playing members. The mind just boggles.

Replying To galwayman2: "Other way around anyway. James plays for Annaghdown - Tom for Corofin.
I seem to recall James coming on as a sub for Tom while still a minor in the 2013 AI u-21 final.
Went on to have a mare for the minors later that summer against Mayo unfortunately." If we were to start talking about his errors then we had better start a new thread. Cost Jarlaths a Hogan cup.

You've named a lot of good forwards so I could see him missing out but I personally think he deserves it
PSA :you can disagree with my pick without being derogatory towards him.

I can see your point re hurling clubs setting up football in their clubs but it doesn't work claranbridge and craughwell are 2 examples of where it was tried and failed miserably loughrea is another example

Yes thats a great idea because hurling clubs who have set up football clubs have done a great job of it!! They did so with one sole purpose - kill football in the area. Take it from someone who lives in one of these areas. Lads not alllowed to train and forced to play their home games away because they were denied access to the pitch. Then the just wind it up when the job is done. I for one will not be asking anyone for permission to play football as its nonsence. I wouldnt be too worried about claregalway - they have won 2 minors in their history. To be fair to them they are doing good work. People gave about corofin and the size of the catchment area without recognising the serious work they did and still do. Castlegar players play with james. Turlough players can play with claregalway corofin or monivea. Craughwell players play with monivea. Kinvara clarenbridge etc play with oranmore. Hurling clubs arent interested in football - they will stick at what they are best at and thats there perogative. Dont be knocking the clubs trying to do a bit.

If the lads in turlough didn't play football with claregalway where would they play ?? As it is now they have 3 choices play with claregalway play with corofin or don't play at all which definitely is worst option , claregalway have won 2 minor A tiles in there history corofin won 8 in a row so I would not be getting 2 excited yet I think claregalway have only won 1 under 20/21 in there history ,,

Replying To Peggy11: "Intercounty teams permitted to start back training again on December 8th. Will Michael Daly go back into the fold ?" Hopefully he will .. But hopefully it wont be until the new year before he and his Mountbellew colleagues go in.
That is , if Mountbellew win Connacht club ( a big if , I know) I assume that their players will be allowed the latitude that Corofin players have been allowed in recent years in order to join the panel a little later.
