Nice mention in a US newspaper for our editorial The Unspoken Sorrow of the Searchers which was named as an award winner this week by the International Society of Weekly Newspaper Editors at its conference in South Dakota. advertiser.ie/galway/article…

This is a class view of the Clifford point before half time via @eammagu #GAA
Seven point win - It’s a fifth All Ireland Final appearance for Cathal Murray and @GalwayCamogie96 - A solid second half performance. Croke Park here we come next month.




Ailish O’Reilly fires over and we’re seven ahead as we enter two minutes added time. @GalwayCamogie96




Six minutes left and Grace O’Brien reduces the deficit for Tipp to six.@GalwayCamogie96
Caoimhe Kelly turns and shoots @GalwayCamogie96 seven ahead with seven left.

Great move from end to end sees Mairead Dillon put @GalwayCamogie96 six ahead as we enter the last eight minutes.


Carrie Dolan dragged to the ground but she punished Tipp with a deadly free. @GalwayCamogie96
GOALLLLL - Niamh Mallon fires to the top of the net. O'Brien replies with a free. O Reilly points and Galway lead by four. @GalwayCamogie96



Tipp lost their fullback, looked vulnerable and were being well beaten but they're level at the break. Momentum with Tipp. @GalwayCamogie96 need to improve immeasurably in the second half.
Like last year, Tipp are full of running and energy, and have whittled down a six-point deficit to draw level with a free from Grace O'Brien. All square at the break. @GalwayCamogie96 #momentum
Mairead Dillon the third Galway player to be carded. Eight minutes added time @GalwayCamogie96 lead by three after 33.
Carrie D puts @GalwayCamogie96 four up from a free after Aoife D fouled. Galway reacted well to the Tipp revival. Shuffle in the forwards giving them more of a threat. Need to capitalise on the changes in the Tipp full back line.
Galway sloppy in the turnovers — Were coasting along but Tipp back into it. @GalwayCamogie96
Disappointing goal concession by Galway. Sarah Healy seemed to have it batted out but it slipped into the net. We've let Tipp back into it. Galway lead by three after 27. @GalwayCamogie96
Tipp full back Karin Blair down for a good while now. Hope she's ok. The board took a while coming out, but she walks off. Hard hitting game so far. Few yellow cards as well. Galway lead by three after twenty. @GalwayCamogie96 @OfficialCamogie
Almost @Galway_Races time again. Am reminded of this image. One lost a jacket and found a trousers and vice versa. @galwayad

What have Roma ever done for us?...apart from the roads and the sanitation...
