I thought our countyman didn't have his best day as ref. Granted I'd say with the intensity it was a difficult game to ref.

That's right. When Mayo pulled level, they kicked a few bad wides thereby handing the initiative back to Galway. If Mayo had nailed those chances, they'd be Connacht champions. Galway did enough but not impressive. They'll need Comer and Walsh fit to win the All Ireland.

We're not shocked JM about Mayo not pulling the trigger. Absolutely cruising in the second half and then changed. It was a very enjoyable game of football, free flowing with both teams going all out to win even though the winner gets a considerably harder group in the round robin. The ref had a few head scratchers for sure on both sides. cluichethar (Mayo) - Posts: 520 - 04/05/2025 19:19:21 2606670 Link 0 |

A few scoops tonight, and get this out of the heads. Our next encounter V Cavan should be not much more than a run out, and that should be enough to get to a preliminary QF. The chance of another crack at Galway will be a great motivator. martinjoe (Mayo) - Posts: 549 - 04/05/2025 19:35:29 2606673 Link 1 |

Bad enough trying to ref a big game under the new rules and not everyone clear why calls were made. There was plenty of off the ball stuff too.

No such thing as a soft penalty its either a penalty or not. For that incident and by the letter of the law the correct decision was made on that penalty. Long after it and well into the 2nd half the match was there to be won by Mayo and in the end found a way to lose it.

Considerably harder group? Both get the Ulster finalist (no difference between Armagh/Donegal) Dublin at home or Tyrone away which match is easier? Derry and Cavan both are around the same level this year. Gaa_lover (USA) - Posts: 3605 - 04/05/2025 20:45:37 2606691 Link 0 |

I think at this stage, they "Croke Park" are putting in rules just to confuse the fans. I heard Marty Morresy say on the tv that they have the advantage of hearing the referee and what he says, I believe it should be like rugby and everyone hear what he says it would clear up a lot of confusion. The penalty was soft but there was inconsistency effecting both teams. cluichethar (Mayo) - Posts: 520 - 04/05/2025 21:06:28 2606696 Link 0 |

Gutted, just Gutted. I have to go back a long way to feel this disappointed after a CF defeat. Cbar (Mayo) - Posts: 345 - 04/05/2025 23:53:14 2606729 Link 0 |
