Such is life....

Despite Mayo's loss to Roscommon on Sunday, Kobe McDonald continued his rise in the senior inter-county ranks.

The 18-year-old was his side's second top points scorer, with 0-06, as the Rossies blew away the Green and Red in the second half.

Mayo's top scorer on the day was Ryan O'Donoghue, with 1-04, and, speaking with SportsJOE he had huge praise for his young teammate after the game.

However, given the fact that McDonald is moving to the AFL at the end of the inter-county season, it will be bittersweet to listen to for Mayo supporters.
