Cork kicked the ball more than Kerry today. And Tyrone will beat Kerry if they meet later on.

Well done to Kerry on the 5 in a row. But they have been lucky over the last 3 years. All the finals have been in Kerry- in Killarney. Killarney is a beautiful place no doubt. But because of build of the new stadium Cork have been at a disadvantage. A new stadium hopefully means a new era for Cork GAA!!!! galwayford (Galway) - Posts: 2520 - 02/07/2017 19:05:05 2009145 Link 1 |

How many AI's would we have if we got every game in Killarney? And we won't mention all the other lorry load of advantages (money, jobs, population, home refs etc) If the GAA put the same time and massive resources into Cork they would be another Dublin are now, but there is no intent on the GAA doing that Galantis (USA) - Posts: 55 - 02/07/2017 20:06:00 2009179 Link 0 |

True, but Kerry should have gotten a few goals themselves. They could have upped their game a couple of gears if they needed to. The management also made a lot of substitutions, which disrupted the game in the final quarter. Hopefully any defensive weaknesses will be addressed for the quarter final.

Who's dominant in Leinster? Even when Dublin were not winning there was only ever a few counties at any given period capable of winning Leinster. Meath had their period of dominance, Kildare and Offaly also had some success. But never in the same period. That's it. For a province with 12 counties that;s a poor state of affairs. All 4 provinces are the same. In Connacht Galway used to dominate, then Mayo etc etc. In Ulster different counties at different times were contenders for the Ulster Championship, Down, then Armagh, Tyrone, Donegal. There has been much improvement in Munster with Tipp and Clare in particular. getting stronger. However, no matter what format the Championship takes, there will only be a handful of counties with a realistic chance of winning the AI. kerry4ever (Kerry) - Posts: 22 - 03/07/2017 18:18:35 2009865 Link 0 |

"Cork kicked the ball more that Kerry". Right, in a parallel universe perhaps. Definitely not in Fitzgerald Stadium yesterday.

Look lads, Kerry are brilliant but they are a football county in a hurling province. 49erroyal (Meath) - Posts: 65 - 03/07/2017 20:18:32 2009914 Link 1 |
And Meath are a team in a province with no football teams outside of Dublin. Not too hard for any team to make at least the leinster final with any average group of players

Yet Clare and Tipp are better and have achieved more than any Leinster team has in 15 years And thats before going into all that Cork have accomplished in that period..... Galantis (USA) - Posts: 55 - 03/07/2017 22:26:50 2010021 Link 0 |
Lads, I'm not trying to have a cut at ye. The fact is Kerry are in a six team province where hurling is the no 1 sport in the other five counties. That's great for Kerry, always has been. 49erroyal (Meath) - Posts: 65 - 03/07/2017 22:51:55 2010036 Link 1 |
