One of the McGees trying to break the finger Alan Fitz from castlegregory is a fairly clear attempt to injure a player and that happened recently at intercounty level Neil McGee and I think it was 2015 or 2016.A disgusting act and as bad as I've seen. To be fair to Neil Magee though he said its his biggest regret. He admitted he was pumped up and stepped over the line. A solid case of ‘I regret all the bad things that I have been caught doing’ as opposed to ‘I regret all the bad things that I have done’

Great time for Alan in my parish in Castle.
It was a shocking thing to do but Alan gave mcgee a blooded nose so he got his answer.
I think David can mind himself but regardless I want him to get a break.
Give the lad a few weeks off.. and I expect Jack to do that because he knows his importance.

I remember it well not only for that reprehensible act but also Mr Gallagher on the sideline whose antics were among the most obnoxious, distasteful and crass you could ever wish to see on the side of the pitch. Would a grown man not be mortified for it. We beat the buggers at least and Star made sure to protect the lads around him that day. I remember a lot of comment online after (mostly from Dubs) trying to twist it all into being Kerry who were the aggressors.
Always had great time for Donegal as a county and people and was very sad, as I've said elsewhere, to see the big man bow out this week. But my God under that Fermanagh man they were spiteful!

McStay would appear to have been dealt a harsh blow if reports are true of Oisin Mullen and Lee Keegan being unavailable in 2023.
i think Keegan is the greatest player Mayo has ever produced. Give me Keegan over, McHale, MacDonald, O'Sheas, O'Connors or Brady any day.
Keegan never hid.
I would have him on par with Willlie Joe and that's saying something.
Was thinking we will be undercooked going into the start of league because of the team holiday, although they are far from a one man outfit, Donegal aren't far off it and a Murphyless Donegal are less of a fear even if they will have had a McKenna Cup run behind them.

Keegan has certainly been one of the greats but the news on himself and Oisín Mullen might be premature. The latest article I read says they both are still part of the Mayo panel for 2023.However maybe that's the line thrown out by Mayo CB as they have nt been officially told yet. If true both will be huge losses especially Keegan. Murphy also huge loss but maybe it will give the other Donegal forwards more chance to express themselves now. Sometimes when the star player is missing the other step up to the mark. Keegan came out lately saying he hasn't made his mind up about next season yet, dismissing the rumours. He has earned the right as he has had a long season as his club Westport finally got their hands on a county title. If I was a Mayo supporter I'd be looking for Lee to have a midfield role next season if he returns, he was a big threat going forward under Rochford previously. It might be a role that could excite him and encourage him to stay on another year or 2.

Mid field or a forty yard berth is no place for tired legs, intercounty is a young man's game, more so a pivotal or central role.
I'm a huge fan of Keegan but think a wing role is best suited as invariably teams will pull their wing forwards back behind the defence so he would be the spare roaming role.

As per examiner headline - Big blow for Mayo as Geelong confirm Oisin Mullin's move - The former Young Player of the Year will join Zach Tuohy and Mark O’Connor at the Cats.

The Examiner has an article that Jack Savage will be available for Kerry in 2023.
I think this is brilliant news for Kerry as we need everyone onboard again and I thought Jack did very well when he played last year particularly against Armagh.

Id say you guys or the dubs will win sam sadly not us ODonoghue, Conroy and OConnor is a serious FF line. Mayo will get a bounce out of Mcstay too. Mullin is a huge loss there's no getting away from that. And the elephant in the room is what to do with Aidan OShea.

Not A fan of the big man, in all honesty, think he is overrated and un f iu fortunately goes into hiding when needed the most in big games.
Murphy stood up when Donegal needed him, seminar Seanie or DC for us nowadays, Declan, Donaghy or Cooper likewise... Cooper, Connolly and Rock for Dublin.... they never shirked.
Mayo's best game or display was beating Dublin in extra time- that day AOS was removed from the field.
My opinion, leave him at FF and persist with him there, in his defence he does get thrown from pillar to post... leave at FF or suggest club football

If I am honest I am no fan of Aiden o shea has never scored when it matters and just wants to show off it seems I say leave him on the bench and let the younger ones shine. I think kerry will go far if not win it next year

Only in mayo of who knows who he needs to go hope mcstay can stand up to that kind of ninsence thats costs us over the years! Good luck to you guys next year though not to much 😂

I can’t see us being anywhere near relegation trouble. Since 2019 we have won most games that we’ve played in the league. I don’t see that changing dramatically unless we’re missing key players. Even missing key players, I can't see us struggling. The example is we put Mayo to the sword in the league final this year without Seanie. Even excluding any new comers wanting to make an impression, looking at the panel players that we had this year would trouble most county teams. Sure EK alone would survive well in division two ... not to mind the rest if the County included. Yes you did it was a slaughter match for us but that was our mayo b even c team and we just didnt want to be there our heart wasnt in it we held you for a lot of the quarter final game and we werent our best at all wouldnt take to much from that league final haha

I think kerry will go far if not win it next year I've heard McStay previously say he sees AOS only position Is 11. I think that's a massive mistake and the best thing for Mayo is a roll on the bench.

What's the reason for a 12.45 start in Omagh I wonder?
Means the team will definitely have to travel up the night before and stay-more expense though probably would have done so anyway

Either way, isn’t it great to be talking league ball when Sam is only jest settling in.
