donaghy finally punished for his off the ball crap, o shea will have a fair bad left eye tomorrow as it was well sweeled when the match ended. Again when you cross that white line you're responsible for your own actions no matter if you claim provocation. still going for mayo tyrone final. last night 45/1on line for mayo, McGregor, tyrone, got son to shove a tenner on it. that was good game but full of animosity and dirt, so much for the pure football myth

Practically impossible for the ref to keep his eye on everything there today. Lazy tackles such as shirt pulling, push in the back when not necessary are being called, but how are the officials to keep watch on all the off the ball stuff. On a positive side, both sides kicked some great points but mayo carried a greater threat to goal and it showed in the second half when really needed. Mayo were full value for their win. Enjoy the lead up to the final, week earned and more than deserved after the summer they've put in.

Glad to see the Kerry tattooed brigade lose. Can't stand that BJ Keane since the all-ireland v Donegal in 2014.

An awful lot of cynicism to Kerry that gets covered over due to them having brilliant footballers like in the 2000s. Darragh O'Se took out Nicholas Murphy of Cork more times. Not to mention Kenneally. Even back to the 1930s when Laois' millenium man and best player aged 16 was stretchered off the field after a dirty blow to the head early in the game. Fair play to Gough today. Crowley should have been sent off the last day.

Great win for Mayo. They completely dominated the game and should have won by at least 7 or 8 points. They made Kerry look very poor. I can't remember a team doing so much pulling and dragging in an All-Ireland semi-final. Mayo's big men did well but it was their smaller players like Boyle and Higgins who were the real stars

Congratulations to Mayo the better team by far and best of luck in the final.

Mayo got the rub of the green today with the ref The Kerry black card & the red were so soft a snipe with wellingtons could walk on it & im not talking about Donaghys Finally he paid for his BS

Winning margin really flattered Kerry in the end.

Mayo bossed Kerry around from the first minute to the last.

A superb performance but the gap between the two teams was gigantic.

Football discipline is way worse than soccer or any other sport
It's not just kerry but ever team
Starting with simple things like kicking ball away, taking ball when free given against ur team etc.......
Anyone that says their own county doesn't do this are either blind or only kidding themselves
