2017 GAA National Football League (AKA Kerry's stroll to yet more silverware)

Are you sure?

Yes. I wondered if he was a younger brother when I flicked over to the game last night.

Jesus he’s the spit of him so.

He’s as immobile too

Joe was shockingly overrated, even as a minor. Brian had a bit more about I used to think.

I believe Joe is a fierce holy lad, devout even. He’d love the Roman Catholic thread here.

Joe was a brilliant minor but he got very very big .

He stood at out minor because he was big, but he wasn’t anything special even at that.

Tyrone vs Cavan refixed for Sunday week, 12th March.

Teams for tomorrow night’s blockbuster All-Ireland finals rematch. Mayo are 13/8 to end Dublin’s winning streak and I expect them to do so.

Dublin-Mayo has serious niggle here. It’s been on the verge of boiling over on a number of occasions. Cillian O’Connor caught McMahon with a very nice cheap shot at one stage but Dublin are bullying them physically overall.

1-5 to 0-2 to Dublin at half time.

Dublin defence is all over them like a rash. Well in control.

Tyrone 0-9 Monaghan 0-2. HT.
Cavan 0-4 Donegal 0-6. HT.

Peter Harte missed a penalty for Tyrone.

Dublin can cut them open at will…the movement of their forwards and the space they create is honreal.

Dublin 1-12 Mayo 0-5. (L)

Some smashing scores by Dublin on the counter from deep in the second half. Mayo are now being destroyed.

Fintan Kelly has been sent off for Monaghan for a second yellow.

And Donegal have just snagged a goal …

Goal for Donegal (Eoin McHugh) in Kingspan Breffni Park.

Who’s the commentator? Sounds like he’s reading his grandchild a bedtime story.

Penalty Dublin.

I liked his yahoo of a finish.

Double save by Clarke. Poor penalty by the newly introduced Paddy Andrews but his rebound attempt was particularly brutal.
