Letting the o shea black card go?

You think more black cards should have been given for the jostling before Clarke kickout after Rock final free? After KK was carded (correctly) he fucked it up and I donât recall a Dub having the opportunity or need to black card again
Iâd have to watch it again if i am honest. My initial feeling was "fuxk off dubs and commentators, he was getting up and there was no real intent.
But the shot was a fair bit back. So would like to see again
Didnât show much replay to be fair but it looked very similar to the black card that Johnny Cooper picked up in the final last year.

They went at it inmeduately and CK was the one sacrificed, but at least 4 pull backs happened between 2 kicks, probably many more. But a couple were actual hughing of the players.
Iâm not expecting them to be hiven, just outling what a farce of a card it is and balancing what matty was whinging about.
Dubs won and the best team always wins, even if tgey are not at tgeir best. And i think this confuses people. Dublin were not doninant today. But why have they the right to be? Maybe because its of the exposure we get to these 3 teams, but the 3 semis and the final have been so unbelievably oredictable.
Dubs played aome brilliant stuff today, but seems to be lost a bit.
Huh?
The comment about the Mayo 1-16 losing total is factually correct as is the comment on the winning margin in Dublinâs last 5 All Ireland final wins. Apart from that, I mooted reducing the number of substitutes.
Irrelevance in the context of this yearâs championship and this forum are the couple of hundred of spam posts you put up bigging up All Ireland Champions Elect 2017 - Tyrone. Are you going to give us another treatise on money, population and travel distance like you did in the immediate aftermath of the rout of Tyrone?
Zzzzzzzzzzzz

To lose 4 out of the last 6 All Irelands is some going. And 3 of them by a point.

I didnât say it wasnât factually correct.
I said it was irrelevant.
O Shea getting black carded wouldâve had little impact. He was bolloxed for most of the second half. Penalties on the other hand wouldâve had a major impact.
âYou know how I roll Bryanâ
Their star player missing the 2nd half would have made a huge difference

Giving a free when it was clearly a peno late in the game⌠Think it was on Keegan? That ref bottled some big decisions in Dublins favour todayâŚ
As usual
I felt he got a 2nd wind and was MOTM were mayo to win.
James McCarthy should probably get it now.
Mind you Connolly had a massive inpact
The ref handed CâOC a last minute crucial free. He bottled it.
As usual.

Mother of God, Mayo. Groundhog Day yet again. The better team and once more leave it behind them. Itâs gut wrenching watching as a neutral, God only knows what itâs like for their fans or players to go through this again.
Dublin Joe gave them nothing but ultimately it was their own failings again. Cillian OâConnor missing a handy free in the first half, Keegan dropping one short in the first half, Moran missing an easy one in the second half, the free off the post and the icing on the cake - the goal chance in the second half. Christ, how many chances do you need. They always find a way to mess it up, itâs heartbreaking as they keep coming back year after year and have some fantastic players.
Idiotic from Vaughan. Smallâs reaction got him the red. Think it was a yellow but charging in recklessly always left him open to being sent off. McQuillan is a poor, poor ref and gave bad decisions against Dublin too. Overall I thought he was way harsher on Mayo but they were the authors of their own downfall. Played all the football in the first half and went in a point up.
Bar one or two players this Dublin team isnât that dislikeable. The likes of Flynn and McCaffrey seem decent lads. Some achievement to win three on the bounce. They just know how to win.
But Mayo, Jesus. Itâs soul destroying watching them fuck it up year after year.
