Dublin's character

(Oldest Posts First)

Dynamite.

Mayo rightly praised for putting it up to us. Their character to come back year on year.

People forget Dublin's character.

There was times yesterday when it seemed to be getting away from us

When **** was hitting the fan, nobody, NOBODY buckled. We, to a man, stood up.

No one ever talks about Dublin's grit and character in close games.

5 finals in 7 years. 5 wins

2011 won by a point
2013 won by a point
2015 won by 2
2016 won by a point after a replay
2017 won by a point.

Its not just luck.

Composure, Bottle, trust in themselves and their ability, guts, courage, attitude, confidence, know how, experience, self belief, mentality.

Aspects of our game that sometimes get over looked but jesus, Its got us over the line time and again.

Great team.. Great

It must be horrible coming into the home straight after performing and giving everything and in 99 games knowing any other team will be beat but today you are playing Dublin and they can turn a game in a few minutes, its massive psychologically.

I think you can add a few semi finals to that list as well.
