Cheers. Have a pal waiting to hear from Thomas Davis in Dublin so fingers crossed.Tend to get my AI Final tickets outside the country got one from Sands McSwiney GFC Coatbridge in 2015 & from London in 2011(ticket is on my mantelpiece framed). Should be a great clash Sunday week. |

Good entertaining game to watch today. Anyone else find it annoying how once it went over 75 minutes Maurice Deegan just blew it up and we get all the usual Gaa quotes it was a "game no one deserved to lose" draw is a fair result" etc.
There was 5 minutes of injury time signalled and during that 5 mins a couple of subs came on and there was one or two stoppages.There was easily another 1-2 minutes of injury time he could have played but instead decided to go for what the Gaa love the draw! Had Mayo been a point behind he would have played that little bit of extra time! Edited by Trigboy 10 - 20 Aug 2017 at 8:11pm |

Anybody else notice how if yesterday's game was a hurling game, it would be the greatest game in history (since the last game in the hurling championship) ???
Though yesterday's game was great - Tense, plenty of scores, decent skill levels considering the weather conditions (Croke Park seems like an ice rink when it's raining). Would expect Kerry to be better the next day.

Aidan O'Shea looked completely lost and at sea at full back. He was grand under the 1 or 2 high balls that came in to Donaghy, but apart from that he was nowhere near close enough to him. Seemed a strange decision to make as I though Donal Vaughan would have been more than capable of doing a better job. Donaghy helped set up the 2 goals and a couple of other points, scored himself and should have had more. Experiment over I would say

There was a lot of talk a few weeks ago when there were two walkover games at Croke Park on the Saturday in the football followed by a great hurling semi final on the Sunday of how the hurling championship is so much better, with the usual knee jerkers like Brolly putting his oar in as usual, football in crisis blah blah blah, lets change the rules or the format or the usual aul craic.
I said at the time to wait until the football semi finals, and compare them with the hurling semis Now Hurling can be a far more exciting sport at times, no dispute of that, but up until the semi finals I didn't think it was that classic of a hurling championship so far this year.

The football championship has been fairly brutal up until yesterdays game though. It's hardly an endorsement for it that we had to wait until the semi's for a bit of action or a quality game between two well matched teams.

That's just the stage it has got to, the top 4 are too far ahead of the rest.
There have been good games though. Down v Monaghan, Monaghan v Carlow, Armagh v Kildare, Galway v Roscommon, Galway v Mayo |

Gaelic Football is for Counties that can't compete in Hurling at the Highest level.
The All Ireland Senior Football Championship is a second rate Gaelic Games competition in all fairness. |

Just shows the gulf between the top four and the rest. Expect Sunday's match also to be a war of attrition. If Dublin don't win I'd gladly like to see Mayo win this years championship;if ever a team deserved one AI, it's them. Andy Moran for someone over the hill was incredible yesterday. Expecting a couple of Kerry sweepers on Saturday to appear ,they were wide open at the back. The traditional Kerry game will be put to bed. € signs all over Croke Park this weekend. |

TBF yesterday only reiterated the point that it's great when the Top 4 play against each other, awful when they play other teams.
