They gave up on it as soon as they missed the penalty. They don’t have the self belief to withstand adversity on AI day.

Joanne pointing out it should be notedAidan O Shea still on the pitch watching the Tyrone players life the cup

At half time she asked was O’ Se causing carnage

Dessie Cahill-esque level of broadcasting

Did the rest of them fuck off?

I thought it was Nevin Maguire after downing a bottle of whiskey

Mayo have lost finals by the exact same score in two consecutive years.

Lazarus · September 11, 2021, 6:11pm

Hennelly got his token point just after and you thought maybe just maybe but even then you could sense the look of foreboding in their faces. Like I said at HT was all Tyrone had to do was remain calm and composed and they’d win handy and thats exactly what they did. All truth told they shoud have won by an awful lot more, Dooher wouldn’t be happy with their shooting there today

OShea is a sacred cow in RTE
Don’t know what they see in him, he’s not a winner maybe that’s the commonality for RTE

Ralphie · September 11, 2021, 6:11pm

Don’t think so

We need a camera on Jimmy Sloyan tonight.

In all previous 12 finals Mayo had contested since 1989 they had never missed a penalty. Stupid red cards yes. Appalling missed goal chances yes. Conceding a goal from a stupid penalty yes. Needlessly changing their goalkeeper yes. Being totally destroyed from the first whistle yes. Kicking a free over the bar when they needed a goal yes. Kicking a free to equalise up in the air and as wide as a fucking gate yes. Kicking a free to win against the post yes. Two own goals in one match yes. But never had Mayo missed a penalty in an All-Ireland final since 1989. House. House of fucking Pain.

Brian Dooher, what a gentleman

McCurry hit them with 1-4, one goal and four points.

Tyrone are an established power in fairness.

Juhniallio:

I think Mayo, for all their losses over the years will still be going into this slightly complacently. They feel it’s their year and so do all the pundits. Dublin’s defence was in tatters and their system of possession broke down. Tyrone are a far better defensive unit than Dublin. Maybe later on Mayo get more broken play and freer runs at them but I can see Tyrone bundling up any of the Mayo forwards and eating the younger lads alive. So I think the key question is how much Tyyrone can score against that Mayo defence. I dont think Mayos defence got a great test against Dublin. In the second half. Dublin were so mired in the process that they recycled all the time for better shots that never came. I think they made Mayo look better than they are.
In short, Mayo might be as good as they were against Dublin but I think Tyrone will be a lot better than they were against Kerry if they fix their kickouts. Tyrone by 3, seeing it out comfortably enough in the last 10 minutes and with a fee Mayo lads getting a bit violent with the frustration towards the end.

Sorry lads. Thought Mayo would be slightly closer.

Best day ever

Lovely moment with McCurry there and mentioning his mam

Achtungbaby · September 11, 2021, 6:26pm

Tis a sad day when Sam is leaving the EU

A fine RTE Montage if a bit short to be truly great.
