Zen. Well done on winning.

That’s the Mayo of old. They are in transition on and no longer have the same power around the middle third. Dublin destroyed Mayo in the semi final last year. I’d expect a fairly routine 8 or 9 point Dublin with the game effectively over around the 50 minute mark.

Mayo have to be favorites. Dublin haven’t been tested.

Be great to see Dessie win it in his first year as manager. Very few have done that.

In fairness Mayo lead at half time in that game but Dublin ran through them for fun after half time.

Mayo’s tactic of hard running and drawing soft frees won’t work against Dublin

Offaly 98
Cork 05
Not sure if Offaly 94 was Cregans first year.

I think Offaly 98 was also the last year a a non native manager won it.

Pat O’Shea of kerry did

It’ll be some achievement by that yardstick for someone to come in to replace Lennon at Celtic and win the league with them. All this given they have won the last 19 or whatever.

Jack O’Connor x2 and Jim Gavin too.

Jack O’Connor as well? As did O’Mahony with Galway and Harte with Tyrone.

Think it was a joke considering last Dublin manager did it …

Dublin are in rapid decline.

Any discussion around splitting Dublin has to involve counties merging. Wicklow are as entitled to a run at Leinster as Meath.

Meath beat Wicklow 7-14 to 0-07.

Normal counties have swings and roundabouts, laois, Westmeath both have less to work with than Wicklow and have won Leinster when it was fair. But yes Wicklow need help, so why did Dublin get it?

Its a fair point. Be interesting to see what type of buy in there would be from players in these counties.

Wicklow are a bit of a joke given their population. You’d think they’d have built on the Micko era.

Dublin train in very basic facilities compared to Kerry/Tyrone/Kildare’s centres of excellence.
