2017 All Ireland Senior Football Championship

Nonsense and mass generalisations

Presumably you say this whenever anybody predicts a bookies’ outsider to win?

Sport doesn’t work on the basis that Team A are expected to beat Team B, therefore Team A wins.

Bookies’ favourites lose regularly.

As somebody who has seen this Dublin team play a lot more than you have over the years, I can confirm @Nembo_Kid is correct in his assertion that Dublin do struggle against teams with organised and committed mass defences. That’s hardly a surprise because every team does. Tyrone are the very best around at having an organised and committed mass defence.

That’s without even taking their superb counter-attacking game into consideration.

They have the tools to beat Dublin but it will likely be very close. All four remaining teams have the tools to beat each other on any given day.

A refereeing decision or a bit of luck either way might well make the difference, as it might tomorrow.

Kev told us Donegal and Monaghan were a good bit ahead of Tyrone this year.

He knows very little about GAA, it’s very obvious from the audit trail.

I’m currently over on the Terrorism thread having him backtrack furiously on a fake yarn he spun.

Whats with the bookies reference?

And i realise its not that simplr. Yet nobody has broken it down

Have you broken down how Dublin will beat Tyrone?

@caoimhaoin doesn’t want and can’t even contemplate a tyrone win because he hates @Nembo_Kid so much.

Has fuck all to do with that gobshite. Plenty people i ahve great time from there.
And he is from Armagh.

There is zero evidence in this championship to suggest they are at the same level as the dubs

Yes. Look back

Provide a link to the relevant post/s, please.

I’m not wading back through hundreds of posts.

Fuck off and find it yourself

:rollseyes:

Plenty of evidence, they are at the same stage of the Championship as Tyrone are for one.

You are shitting it as you know Tyrone have a real chance.

Shotting of what? Someone winning a game? :joy:

Gobshite.

Still no breakdown of how tyrone will do it

I’ve already broke it down.

I wouldn’t expect someone who doesn’t understand the game (substantiated by numerous posts by yourself on here) to get it.

Will you be embarrassed if Tyrone beat Dublin?

Why would i be embarrassed?

You have not broken down anything.

You have said

  • tyrone are defensive
  • dublin don’t like playing defensive teams (which you do not know for sure, they may love the challenge) yet they beat every defensive team they have met.

Thats not a breakdown

I have broken it down.

Dublin struggle against defensive teams.
Tyrone are the master of all defensive teams.

As a result I think Tyrone have a smashing chance.

You should be embarrassed as you have completely wrote Tyrone off. The thing is you don’t seem to have any shame.

You can’t even explain what Tyrone are :joy::joy::joy:

How can tyrone be masters of all defensive systems without winning an all Ireland while Donegal and Kerry have won all Irelands in same time with defensive systems?..

Winning doesn’t matter

They have the best defensive system in the game right now.

Kerry won an All Ireland after conceding huge scores against Mayo in the semi final.

Tyrone only brought this system of play into action in 2015, Donegal won their All Ireland in 2012.

What is it you are trying to argue?
