Or, you know, when it gets into the real business end of it and you come up against better teams.
But they have tightened up their act there in the last two matches for sure.
And, you know, they've got the good balance between the two.
there has been a concern about their ball-winning ability at midfield today and all that kind of thing.
But, you know, winning the long kick-outs and so on, there was a fear they might struggle against Lout today.
I think they did well enough there as well.
And they just had a lot more edge, a lot more kind of energy, a lot more aggression than Lout today.
And they had to match one realistically, I would say, with 15 minutes gone in the second half.
You know, you couldn't see a way back, particularly with the wind and everything in the way there.
From the evidence of the first game, most of the attacking football was coming down towards that side.
And Mayo were in that position where they were going into that half with a four-point lead and had a fantastic start to the second half then, which embellished it.
be it from the start or a cameo coming in off the bench because they're going to be coming up against two good midfielders in the final regardless of who they're playing yeah and I suppose it wouldn't have been a huge surprise if Matthew Rand had started today even I'd say Michael you know and maybe he's coming back maybe from possible injury there I think earlier and maybe he's in a better place maybe to push for a starting place in the final but
dead on their feet almost whereas they're bouncing and they're fresh now yeah and it seems a long way back to the Roscommon game with the Connacht Championship and all that kind of thing doesn't it you know so that's the time to get it to get it right if you can for to do that to be able to do that to pick it up and build up your momentum coming into this this period so ideally it's kind of like a
they're working their way up to the ultimate performance in two weeks time.
And that's the way you want to do it, if you can do it.
No, not by design, but it's worked for them.
And they're in a situation now where they're going to a final.
they can go in with kind of a free spirit and I think they've done that in the last few games and don't forget they've come to Cork Park and Andy Moran was on about you know he felt they would do well in Cork Park he had to wait and see the evidence the last day against Cork he was satisfied afterwards that his instincts were right and now it's kind of reinforced by today's kind of performance so you know they look forward to coming up here again they seem to like playing here From a loud point of view Dermot a really disappointing end to what's been
Yeah, I mean, I'm not trying to be wise after the event, but I mean, I had a kind of feeling they might win on the basis that I thought that...
Lowd put such a monumental effort into beating Monaghan that they created almost like a perfect performance and I thought like you point earlier about trying to stagger your form in such a way that you get better as the day goes by and you build it up to the peak performance at the end and I thought they emptied the tank against Monaghan I know you have a bit of a break and so on and people said well that's a sign of resilience a really good team able to manage in an adverse situation but I do think something like that can take quite a bit out of a team
