Congratulations to Dublin but by god the reff rode poor Galway all day long . Could they not get a reff from ulster or Munster? KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 01/04/2018 18:25:46 2090061 Link 3 |
Tiresome " ref giving everything to Dublin" posts on here in what was a very decent final to follow the first game cracker. Dubs get a harsh red, MDMA gets a yellow for getting himself fouled but saying ref didn't always get it right for either team is not allowed for games involving Dublin. poguemahone (Dublin) - Posts: 365 - 01/04/2018 18:29:10 2090063 Link 2 |
Neutral? I'd hardly say neutral. Philly sailed pretty close to the wind and was lucky not to get the line, maybe Cooper too. But John small, there were at least two Galway players that should have seen the line. Galway were very cynical, as were Dublin at times, but ofcourse you and all your neutral friends only see the dubs at it.

Doesn't matter where the ref is from. He'll get dogs abuse from the idiot brigade if Dublin win no matter where he's from. We've seen it time and time again. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13692 - 01/04/2018 18:45:24 2090071 Link 3 |
Fair play to Galway they done themselves proud today and put it up to the Dubs.I was afraid they were going to get hammered from listening to all the sports pundits on TV and reading the papers.They stayed with them for 55-60 mins and took some beautiful scores but no better team than Dublin to finish out a game in the last 10-15 mins.Galway have experienced and hopefully learnt a lot from this league campaign,Looks like they've developed consistency and not as easily bossed around or scored against.Also have the makings of a large skilled panel like Dublin has.Time will tell. johndsands (Galway) - Posts: 8 - 01/04/2018 18:53:41 2090075 Link 0 |

Come on posters you're better than this, blaming the ref after every Dublin game is getting boring. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 01/04/2018 19:00:33 2090079 Link 2 |
Well done to Dublin. I think experience was the key, poor decisions by us in last ten minutes probably due to tiredness. Still a great performance by us Trucker1 (Galway) - Posts: 368 - 01/04/2018 19:04:18 2090080 Link 1 |
Good game between two good teams. Nothing bar Dublin's experience won it in the end. Galway are far from a million miles away and look a great bet for silverware in the West. Hill147 (Dublin) - Posts: 16 - 01/04/2018 19:17:36 2090084 Link 1 |
Very impressed with Galway today jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20587 - 01/04/2018 19:27:59 2090088 Link 3 |
Happy enough. Showed we can compete. Also some poor decision making but this game will help bring that on. Mayonman (Galway) - Posts: 1824 - 01/04/2018 19:35:51 2090093 Link 1 |

Important for people to realise where we have come from, 12 months ago we were a div 2 team with a questionable defence, and today we went toe to toe with one of the great teams in the last 30years. The expierience we will get from today will be huge going forward. I feel we were a little slow making changes however if we get Michael Daly fit and integrate Ian Burke Kieren Molloy and one or two other Corofin lads i feel we are getting there. Well done Dublin.

Haven't read back on this thread so not sure has it already been mentioned but surely someone else noticed twice Galway were giving frees in which should have been frees out when running at the Dublin defence, Comer firstly had the ball in one arm and a hold of Coopers jersey who was chasing him at the same time, and got his free when he fell to the ground, then near the start of the second half Conroy Running with the ball grabbed Coopers arm and pulled him to the ground, when Coopers arm wasn't even out to make a tackle. Definitely wouldn't say the referee favoured the Dubs today. mayoboy1 (Mayo) - Posts: 1654 - 01/04/2018 19:51:13 2090103 Link 3 |
Yeah that number 11 for galway got greedy and kicked it wide. He had 3 lads running off his shoulder. Could have created a goal chance.

Won't see Connolly back this year, supposedly he is gone off the wall all together i hope I'm wrong.

That certainly didn't feel like a 4 point win. Nothing comes easy against this Galway team. I hope they win Connacht so we avoid them in the super 8s. For all the talk about Dublin's strength in depth some players are just irreplaceable. We are a different animal with O'Sullivan and Connolly.

Well at least the rest of the country have a little bit of hope and I also admit I was wrong to doubt Tally essmac (Tyrone) - Posts: 1141 - 01/04/2018 20:15:04 2090122 Link 0 |
Nonsense .what about comers blantant diving and pulling players down on top of him to win frees.cry all ye want about referees..galway got 6 scores from frees dublin got 5..dublin also had scully sent off.dublin won that game by 4 points because they were the better team. Simple as
