"Both throw-ins were knocked to Conroy and Conroy wins them and, immediately, he's shifting it off to Comer," Colm Parkinson explained on The GAA Hour. "I'd love to see a camera behind the goals to see the movement of the Galway forwards to get Comer free. The first one, Comer was six or seven yards ahead of Cafferkey. That's a planned move. That is Conroy to Comer and Comer shooting and it's an early point. "What I'd love to see is if there's a block move involved? Are all the players scattering out of Comer's way to give him all that space?"
Comer collects and puts it over the bar.
"Definitely whoever was playing centre half forward vacated that space," Cian Ward said. "Everyone else was maybe holding their positions to create that space so Comer has a massive pocket. "Comer is such a powerful man, he's quick as well - it's not too difficult to get him free. I'd say it was probably just a push in the chest, bang, and he's gone."What happened was that Lee Keegan was assigned the role of marking Shane Walsh so Shane Walsh took him away from the heart of the Mayo defence. And he did it twice.
Comer collects, lays off for Michael Daly and it should be another score but it's a bad wide.
Lee Keegan was dragged into midfield by Walsh for the throw-in, leaving a big hole in the defence for Conroy to bounce one up for Comer.
These type of set plays work but they're not used nearly enough.
"We used to have this set move from the throw-in and it was me or Ross [Munnelly] probably at wing forward," Parkinson explained about his Laois days under Liam Kearns. "It was basically just everyone in the full forward line breaking out for the ball and I'm breaking across the field and then in."Listen to the full discussion on training ground moves below from 55:00 or subscribe here on iTunes.

Was it deserved? Cork produced a statement win today over Limerick at Pairc Uí Chaoimh. The game finished 2-22 to 1-23 in favour of the rebels, between the two sides favoured to win the All-Ireland. Cork won last year’s Munster’s final, but the Treaty have two wins over them in the league this year, including […]

Joe Brolly takes has sly dig at Mayo club he used to coach
Typical! Joe Brolly was the entertainer once again in his latest column for the Irish Independent. This time, the outspoken pundit took a swipe at the Mayo footballers, claiming that they look down on their Connacht rivals Roscommon, and that they have no right to do so. He used Mayo club champions Ballina Stephenites as […]
