I meant to post this one last week but forgot it as I thought of others.

“You’re better off finishing with your best team, not starting with it” (hello Colm “Parky” Parkinson).

Monaghan saw how true that is.

He also said Monaghan were fucked either way.

You said Monaghan were a stand-out bet to beat the spread, mate.

He lied.

Sure.

“Two teams that know each other so well.”

" tickets have never been as scarce , like hens teeth "

Ratified.

We’re now into ratification season.

A new one I hadn’t noticed before, probably because my ears glaze over any time anybody* connected with the Dublin Gaelic football team is interviewed.

“Battle rhythm”.

*Maybe not Dermo.

Has bench press been mentioned yet?

I think it’s “full court press”.

GAA cliche of the year 2017: “humility”.

Confusion over whether there is extra-time or a replay, or what sort of extra-time, or is it next score wins, or a penalty shoot out - no, we don’t do those in the GAA because the sacar crowd do, or a 65s competition, or what the bloody hell happens.
