I hope youâre right but I think Kerry forwards will have too much movement for mayo backs âŚdublins forwards were very poor yesterday .
Kerry are a better team. But if Mayo channel the Armagh '02 attitude of 100 years of helicopters and British occupation theyâll be hard bet. Kerry are far from immune to being beaten by a team who stands up to them and refuses to be bullied and they already have mental scars that can be picked at. Mayo need to make it a war.

I agree with brudean. Who are Kerrys really top class players ? Who have the current team beaten ?
Dublinâs forwards have been robotic and rudderless all year.
Unless Paul Mannion comes back, they are fucked next year again

Mullen and keegan will match up against o shea and Clifford well. After that I wouldnât be too worried.

Mayo will start defensively again and feel their way into the game. They have to deny Kerry possession to run at them early.

Iâd fear for Keegan against either of them to be honest âŚ
If you stop OâShea youâre a good part of the way there
Weâve all seen this movie before ⌠it ends in tears.
Kerry coming in without a semi final - and meaningful game all year - might be their only hope.
Gough to get the final? Coldrick?
Deegan will worm his way in youâd imagine.

Different challenge though. Kerry have 4/5 lads who will run straight at or through the Mayo backs. Dublin never really did. Happy to recycle for better percentage shots and they never came. Itâs like when Spainâs tika taka finally fell apart after Xavi, iniesta etc retired. O Shea, O Brien and the 2 Cliffordâs will all go hell for leather. And Mayoâs young lads up front will do the same to a dodgy Kerry defence. Itll be a great game.

No. That despite everything it was closer which is a bit mad considering the end when Dublin had fallen apart and Mayo were coasting.
Your outrage about the Dubs and the ref is fairly performative - particularly in a week when a Limerick hurler got off a red for a head butt. Youâre not against cheap shots or poor refereeing decisions - you just like to make a song and dance about them when itâs not your team.

Hennelly started taking the kick on 75:40 or something like that. There was obvious serious delays but Lane just decided not to play a minute or so of the game because of the hit on OâConnor.
