They couldn’t do it again, could they? An indifferent league probably means nothing and they do have Mark Gottsche back in harness, their best player having missed last year’s bonanza through injury. Element of surprise has gone though and Galway can’t say they weren’t warned. But stranger things have happened.


Last good day: Connacht final last year.
