So he's getting really a lot out of that group and I think that could push them on to saying, come on, let's go for one more here and let's see what happens then in the last game if we get to an All-Ireland final.
since last year yeah no i think it's been once there's so many shocks and surprises it's going to be a good year you know um and it gives hope for the next couple of years particularly for other counties that are you know looking in going you know what what could possibly happen if we really get stuff together get things right um i think there's a there's a lot of teams looking at this year and kind of go the next couple of years we could have a real crack here like
yeah i i wasn't worried at that stage uh because i said to myself if if it if across the board by the way for any team once it's toy ish and nowadays with six points it actually would have you know you still have that belief that you can get a couple of scores and get back into the game but once it's toy come the end of quarter three whoever has that momentum is going to make life difficult for the opposition
And if it was going to be Dublin with the fan base and the crowd that was there, it was going to be very hard for Galway to change that momentum.
And that's what I really felt was happening.
The goal obviously came at a perfect time.
I kind of felt then when it was kind of hitting quarter three, I was like, they have to be ruthless here.
They have to really keep the ball up the opposite end of the pitch because...
God, we were finding it very easy to get scores.
I think at times Dublin were finding it hard energy-wise to get out of their own defence.
There's a good example of Davey Bourne on the ball and he's getting squashed, closed in with a high press and he kicks the ball.
I think he was trying to hit someone with the ball but...
You could see bodies were starting to slow down.
The support of each coming out of the fence just wasn't there.
It was kind of like, you go for it.
You take your man on.
I'm too wrecked here.
So the ball kept up the opposite end of the pitch.
dominant around midfield and having the players they have up there was the key like you know but I just think that was a key takeaway for me was that at that vital shift from quarter three to quarter four have you got the momentum and no matter what obviously there'd be a limit to a scoreline in terms of how far the opposition are ahead but you can claw it back and that's what I felt happened
that they put numbers across to Gleeson's right hand side down the Cusick stand and they were able to win so many of those that's the key though that was the key it was the kickouts that's where they lost the game Galway because their conversion rate is actually not bad the conversion rate was 60 percent yeah they only had 30 shots right and then if you look at Dublin Dublin had 65 percent conversion rate after 34 shots so primary possession winning the kickouts
