Tony is the Donal Og of Football analysis. RTE need to get him in.

The shite I have read from Carney, O Cinneade (i used to be a big fan be he hasn’t the balls to speak the truth of his own county) and O Se this week is embarrassing.

This is the drivel from Dara.

He also predicted Tyrone to win. It’s like he stopped watching football when Cluxton kicked that point.[/quote]

Great article by McEntee. Mainly, of course, because he agrees with my assertion that Ger Brennan is far from a weak link and actually an excellent and vital player for Dublin. :clap:

, we talked away about tomorrow’s match and within 20 minutes he had dropped me at the entrance to my estate.

decent of you to get out at the entrance pal, the poor kerryman would have never got out alive if he went all the way into Killinarden…

i think Brennan is having a good year more than being a vital player poundage…

His foot passing is magnificent. Launchpad for so many quick counters with fantastic mid range passing. Reminds me of Leon Britton.

That’s all well and good @caoimhaoin[/USER] but they’re paying €40 for the privilege tomo and won’t get to gorge on endless amounts of food and drink unlike the TFK hierarchy like me and @[USER=1785]Ebeneezer Goode

nobody ever questioned him when he´s in possession…its when he looks like he´s pulling an invisible truck when he runs or his 2 fisted tackles to the face that concerns us…still Ger is a true blue - only dub player to live within the 2 canals…:clap:

Agreed, Brennan is fine player and man, the criticism is utterly unwarranted imho.

But he’s also brilliant at his primary defensive duties though. Great reader of the game and very forceful once he realises he has to commit. Reminds me of Thiago Silva in that respect.

Would @Ebeneezer Goode expect me to tidy up my beard for the corporate box, mate?

His friends call him Ezer, he’s very much maligned and misunderstood.

Ya but I’d be going to watch the football, not to make a pig of myself, not hand out business cards to people i already know. I was looking at it from a football enjoyment POV.

This is the exact type of bandwagoning carry on ye boys slag off the rugby people about. Hypocrites.

This is where I disagree. His ability to track his man his questionable. His discipline is always a worry, although it has improved.

If you’re a typical Cork man, you go to fuck all Gaelic Football matches Kev.

As for a bandwagon, Id say I’ve been to more GAA matches as a paying customer than you’ve had hot dinners*

*I’ll be having a 4 course one today between the minor and senior games with my good friends, @Rocko[/USER] @[USER=9]Bandage[/USER] and @[USER=1785]Ebeneezer Goode

Chairman, please ask @caoimhaoin to withdraw this disgraceful post immediately.

Maybe, but considering you are from Leitrim an I’m from Cork and I didn’t miss a Cork hurling championship match from 1982 Munster Final to 2003 All-Ireland semi final and the vast majority of the footballers games in that time I seriously doubt someone 3 -4 years younger than me from an unsuccessful would have seen more. Not to mention all the league games, club games, Minor & 21’a.

Not that has anything to do with I said. And is fairly petty at best. You’d only have to be at Croke Park twice to understand what I said.

How old are you kev?

This is the last day of my 36th year.

Happy birthday for tomorrow mate.

As long as Kerry don’t caught by the karma wave sent by that man who saved me from a 15 mile walk yesterday, I expect Dublin to win by something like 3-17 to 1-12.

This game will pan out like the Mayo Donegal game. Dublin will aim to blitz Kerry early. Kerry will just about hang in until half time but end up failing badly as Dublin put on an exibition for the last 20 mins.
