Mayo put in a dominant second half display this afternoon at Dr Hyde Park where a succession of two-point scores after the break saw them ease to an impressive 0-22 to 1-6 win over Roscommon. They now face Galway in the FBD Cup Final at Tuam next Sunday.
In this Final Whistle show, John is joined at the Roscommon venue for post-match analysis by Nigel Reape and Martin Carney. We also hear, courtesy of Midwest Radio, post-match reaction from Mayo selector Colm Boyle and from Midwest’s Player of the Game Ryan O’Donoghue.
We finish the show with some bonus audio, in which Mike chats with London player Shay Rafter whose parents both hail from Mayo. Speaking after last Sunday’s FBD match between London and Sligo, Shay talks about how much he’s looking forward to the Exiles’ Connacht Championship tie with Mayo in April.

Great energy and vibe about the squad at the moment, style of play, quick long ball, brave shooting, midfield breaks, two solid defensive lines, work rate all seem to be Andy's mantra. Ryan is a massive leader and playmaker in his new role.
Rob is doing his stuff on frees and saves, the trusted campaigners coming back and looking well, Adam Barrett giving more glimpses of the enormous benefit he can bring when he settles into this level, and the youngsters like Lydon, Beirne … looking like a strong squad for the league.

Like the movement of ball from defence and quick hands. Exciting times going forward.
