Replying To togoutlads: "One of the greats of Galway football has retired. Thank you Paul Conroy for the immense service you put in for this county. From captaining our AI winning minors back in 2007 to the hugely deserved footballer of the year in 2024 and onwards to your retirement, Paul always gave it his all for the maroon and white. Making a senior debut in 2008, one year out of minor, to hanging up the boots now, what a massive dedication and service at the highest level of our game to all that love Galway football. A gent off the field too. Well done and Thank you Paul." We'd all agree with that. 2008-2026 was a massive span, and he was absolutely outstanding for most of those 19 seasons. One of Galway's best ever players.

Replying To greenfan: "Apart from Roarty and maybe Campbell, the players you have listed have made no impact so far in intercounty football." It as Mccahills first year of eligibility at senior and he got a really bad hamstring injury in the 20s and lost out on the whole year. Martin played a little this year. He had a very good club championship and will likely get a good rattle next year. Thomas carr could not play last year as he was too young and it was turlough carrs first year and Muldoon might just a little sharpening up as Gaelic footballer. Maybe these chaps will not all come through but that's something that just happen.
A player like roarty having such an impact is very much the exception. It usually takes players a number of years to settle in and it's overall just a bit silly to be calling out a group of young lads who haven't made an impact at senior level yet.
