There’s no club football action on at adult level within the county this weekend, with the clubs gearing up for the start of the Senior, Intermediate and Junior Championships next weekend. This means a rare chance for Rounders to grab the limelight. It’s only right that this less-heralded GAA code should get a mention, as two Mayo clubs are in […]
The sun is splitting the stones, it’s only the middle of July but here we are contemplating the final batch of Mayo match reports for 2022. I really do wonder what the GAA have talked themselves into by pulling down the shutters so early in the year on inter-county action but there you go. The county’s women footballers were the […]
Goals definitely do win games. Kerry got four of them in this afternoon’s LGFA All-Ireland SFC semi-final and we didn’t get any. We may only have ended up scoring once less than they did over the course of the game but they still won with a lot to spare, nine points to be precise, on a scoreline of 4-10 to […]
It’s a truly glorious morning weather-wise up here in the capital and for Mayo’s women footballers a glorious opportunity awaits at Croke Park this afternoon. Their LGFA All-Ireland SFC semi-final against Kerry throws in at 2pm with the winners playing either defending champions Meath or Donegal in the decider in a fortnight’s time. Expectations for this Mayo team weren’t all […]
The Mayo team to play Kerry in tomorrow’s LGFA All-Ireland Senior football semi-final was named last night. It’s the same fifteen who lined out in last weekend’s quarter-final win over Cork and is as follows: Mayo (LGFA All-Ireland semi-final v Kerry, 16/7/2022): Aisling Tarpey (Foxrock/Cabinteely); Éilis Ronayne (Davitts), Róisín Flynn (Knockmore), Danielle (Castlebar Mitchels); Tamara O’Connor (Cill Chomain), Fiona McHale […]
This year’s LGFA Senior Championship has provided a few shocks on the way to this weekend’s semi-finals. The biggest one is that neither Dublin nor Cork feature in the final four this summer, which means that it’s set to be the first final since 2002 without either of them in it. The semi-finals will be played as a double-header at […]
It’s next stop Croke Park for the county’s women footballers in a Championship campaign that’s now down to the final four. Having disposed of Cork in the quarters at the weekend and with Dublin falling by the wayside at the same juncture too, it’s a competition that has opened up nicely, even if defending champions Meath are now strong favourites […]
Every year since 2012 – bar 2018 – we’ve lost to the eventual winner of the Sam Maguire. That’s going to be the case this year too but we don’t yet know if that team will be Galway or Kerry. Enough about us. The last two days were all about the two counties who have made it through to this […]
I’m off down the road to Croke Park in a bit – and what a day for football it is too – but first it’s only right to do a quick post providing links to the games involving us played this weekend. Friday evening’s All-Ireland Minor defeat was as disappointing to us as it was thrilling for Galway, the neighbours’ […]
I’d thought I was done with Croke Park this year but as it happens I’m off to HQ tomorrow for the Dublin/Kerry All-Ireland semi-final and it now looks like I’ll be back there next Saturday too, as the LGFA All-Ireland SFC semi-finals are being played there as a double-header. As this tweet appears to confirm, it’s defending champions Meath against […]
