Brian Reape,Conor Loftus,Eoin O Donoghue,Jason Gibbons and Caolan Crowe all lined out for their clubs.No James Durcan either.

O Donoghue is well capable of starting come championship IMO.

Very surprised he's not in the match day squad.

I would have included Reape or Loftus ahead of Conor O Shea.The wide expanses of Croker would suit the playing style of an at the moment undercooked Conor Loftus. TBF Conor O Shea must be flying in training,so perhaps it was easy call as James Horan has emphasised the fact that his selections will be based on current form/what he's seeing in training.

Cian Hanley,Evan Regan and Ryan O Donoghue are still injured.

ATM all the young Westport lads have disappeared off the radar...Colm Moran etc.

Shane Nally appears to be out in the cold.

Evan Regan is on the bench
Brian reape isn’t up to it
He doesn’t have the pace
If he looks slow in the spring he will be ate alive in the summer
Some players are good club players and not up to inter county . He seems to be one..
Darren Coen is similar but seems to be able to win his own ball which is vital

Eoin o Donoghue is the ones that suprises me

Going blind or more likely a late night!::)

Like the look of Coen as you say but I'd have concerns about his mobility or lack of..

Same. I thought he was gradually staking a claim for himself over the last year or so.

wirelessdude01 · 31-03-2019 11:32am

It looks like JH for whatever reason doesn't rate EoD.

PressRun · 31-03-2019 3:20pm

Best of luck to everyone travelling today. I'm resigned to listening in on the radio. Hope we get a bit of luck!

I'm abroad at the moment, so have to listen. Don't mind listening actually, I like to potter about while it's on

Loafing Oaf · 31-03-2019 4:14pm

Some goal for a half-back:eek: We're in a game now for sure...

PressRun · 31-03-2019 4:15pm

Sounds like fast stuff so far.

PressRun · 31-03-2019 4:33pm

Kerry defending well by the sounds of things. They know we can't shoot from distance.

happyoutscan · 31-03-2019 4:38pm

Vaughan is stinking the place out.

km79 · 31-03-2019 4:40pm

What does Horan be watching during the game ?

It was obvious from the FIRST ball in the full back line were in huge trouble
Match ups all wrong
Get a sweeper in

Yet again he seems to be asleep during the game
We are blessed to still be in it
And with a few tweaks could still win it

Andy will be on at HT

seligehgit · 31-03-2019 4:40pm

A different level of performance needed in the second half.

Wide open at the back.

Doesn't sound like Darren Coen is up to much. Responsible for 2 wides so far, as far as I can hear. Not sure what Carr is contributing either?
We don't seem to have any ideas up front anyway. Not moving the ball quick enough, making bad decisions, over-carrying, etc.

We're playing right into Kerry's hands so far, from the sounds of things.

You can see it
I can see it
We can all see it

Can Horan ?

The goalkeeper debate is dead and buried too
Ya can’t be coming out punching a ball that can be caught
And then he is missing his frees

To be fair he's been very composed under the high ball bar that. Kickouts have been decent too. Thought he could have done more for the second goal though.

SomethingElse · 31-03-2019 4:46pm

Boland and Durcan carrying the fight to Kerry so far. Our full back line is in serious trouble

ureds · 31-03-2019 4:48pm

That 2nd Kerry goal was a disgrace to concede at Junior level never mind Inter-County.

Vaughan,Carr and Coen have contributed very little.

The Kerry blanket defence is working and they know we can't beat it either.

Their forwards are huge though. And our backs... well they aren't. Chris Barrett isn't even up to Tommy Walsh's shoulderblade i don't think.

Bar the one he should have caught easily and punched leading to a point and nervousness for rest of game ?
He is 21 yards out . Not under the crossbar .Why is he even attempting to punch it
And isn’t kicking his frees

No thanks
I’ll stick with the double all star keeper who “only “ commands his box and saves shots thanks

The backs selected aren’t
If only there could be another plan
Rather than pick 3 small lads and hope Kerry will change their tactics

franklyon · 31-03-2019 4:55pm

So what can be changed? Think a sweeper needs to be deployed at the back and quicker ball put in. Giving them too much time to stick 13 players behind the ball.

PressRun · 31-03-2019 4:56pm

Sounds like Clifford is making trouble for Harrison? Seems to have gotten away from him rather easily on a couple of occasions.

Loafing Oaf · 31-03-2019 5:09pm

GOAL!

Well worked too. But that ref is ruining the game. :mad:

PressRun · 31-03-2019 5:11pm

Bout time Darren Coen was taken off. A day to forget for him, unfortunately, from the sounds of things.

ProudDUB · 31-03-2019 5:28pm

'Mon ta fcuk Mayo. Don't screw this up.

happyoutscan · 31-03-2019 5:31pm

Ref should be shot.

Loafing Oaf · 31-03-2019 5:33pm

Game set and match:D

Fr Tod Umptious · 31-03-2019 5:35pm

Brilliant !

Stoner · 31-03-2019 5:37pm

Well done men.

IMO B Horan made great decisions, a strong finish. AOS nearly messed it all up
DOC was excellent. The point then the goal.
The momentum was very well managed

martyos121 · 31-03-2019 5:41pm

Fantastic stuff, winning anything at all is a great thing for this team, especially the young lads. Something to build on.

And how good was DOC’s punch into the net? Top class player overall as well of course, if he continues to perform like he did today we’ll be competitive against any team.

Maigh Eo Abú!

Stoner · 31-03-2019 5:42pm

A Moran on Radio 1, very emotional.

The league is a great competition

Call me Al · 31-03-2019 5:44pm

BonnieSituation · 31-03-2019 5:45pm

Congratulations!

Rather ye win it than themmuns!

PressRun · 31-03-2019 5:47pm

Well, that was a rollercoaster! Can't believe it. Thought we were doing it all wrong in the first half, but what a turnaround. Delighted for the team. Hopefully a few ghosts laid to rest now.

Carol25 · 31-03-2019 5:55pm

Absolutely thrilled for Mayo today! ðŸ‡§ðŸ‡«ðŸ‡§ðŸ‡« Brilliant mental strength to plough back and win. Never say die and never give up. I hope they have this final hoodoo off their back now and make it to the business end of the championship.

km79 · 31-03-2019 5:56pm

YAHIOOOOIIIKioooo

Bunny Colvin · 31-03-2019 5:56pm

We showed great character to turn that around. Defended like dogs when the going was tough and the likes of Diarmuid stepped up when we needed leaders in the second half. Delighted to see the lads celebrating at the end. Here's to a promising summer ahead, that will do us all the world of good.

ProudDUB · 31-03-2019 5:57pm

Ok, whoever the dickhead steward is who wouldn't let Tom Parsons onto the pitch, he should never be let do a game in Croke Park ever again.

Saw that on Twitter. Bad form. A mate at the match said Paddy Durcan was giving the steward an earful. I'd have done the same myself if I was there.

This country doesnt do 'common sense' very well.

That was embarrassing alright but some of these lads doing security in Croke Park haven't a clue. Not GAA men anyway.

naughto · 31-03-2019 6:07pm

My god can’t believe it

sliabh 1956 · 31-03-2019 6:20pm

Those stewarts have no cop on maye Mayo should have had Parsons inside on the bench with the subs. The second coming of Kerry is not what we have been led to beleve they are quite ordinary even after Mayo gifted them two Goals If Mayo had lost Shamie would have been savaged what a brain thing to do . Then after the match he is up in the stand kissing his partner . Great man for the limelight is our
Shamie.

lillielad · 31-03-2019 6:20pm

I am absolutely buzzing for you guys, savage team over the last few years and never let up!! new additions like Raune and Boland have been brilliant too!! Congrats lads you deserve this more than most.

Seen the steward clip myself absolutely scandalous!!
