All Ireland Groups 3 and 4 Highlights

The three two pointers Rian O’Neill scored showed his value to Armagh in the big games. The main differences with Armagh and everyone else are their squad depth and that they don’t rely on one marquee forward for scores. They beat Dublin without All Star Aidan Forker, Aaron McKay, Oisin O’Neill and Ciaran Mackin, and not a word about it. Their kickout press is the best in the land too. GALWAY: Assuming top men like Paul Conroy, Shane Walsh, Liam Silke and Dylan McHugh can find their form they will be in the mix but look unlikely to win an All-Ireland without Damien Comer. Horsed out of it by Derry at the weekend, which is unusual for this particular Galway side. But for fortunate goals from Robert Finnerty and Matthew Tierney they’d have lost at Celtic Park, although they did have the bodies in there to make their own luck. Galway also missed a raft of two point efforts as they chased the game, but they found a way to come from eight points behind and draw, so not out of it yet. The fact Armagh are already group winners should help them in the final group game against Armagh. Treacherous road ahead though if they’re to make it back to the All-Ireland final. DUBLIN: Two Championship defeats in three games for Dublin and back to back Championship losses at Croke Park. They didn’t sustain their bounce back against Galway. Need captain Con O’Callaghan fit. Also need to stop hitting two pointers, or get better at them, although one widespread trend this year is teams chasing games missing two pointers. Look shaky at midfield and at the back. Paddy Small and Cormac Costello are they key to unlocking their season. Need a draw against Derry to ensure they get out of the group. Already missed out on automatic qualification for the quarter-finals so the path ahead is not an easy one. DERRY: Conor Glass and Brendan Rogers got the help they needed at the weekend. Niall Loughlin and Niall Toner bust a gut in a ferocious display, while Lachlan Murray showed his worth again and Dan Higgins caught some big ball. Can they back it up against Dublin? Need a win to ensure qualification out of the group. Draw and they’ll survive if already qualified Armagh beat Galway, so they can’t rely on help from others. They'll hope this is the start of a process of rediscovering their form from 2023 and the first half of 2024. If it is, they'll be higher than eight soon enough, although defensive depth in the absence of Conor McCluskey and Gareth McKinless remains an issue. MONAGHAN: Got a great All-Ireland draw and have taken full advantage of it to date. Beat Down in the final game and they’ll top the group and go straight into an All-Ireland quarter-final. They’ve only lost two games out of 11 this year. The acid test for Monaghan is always Croke Park, but they’ve put themselves in a great position. Conor McCarthy is in All Star form again, while Jack McCarron’s two point shooting is some weapon.
