Game will probably be a double header with mayo and Derry.

Replying To KingdomBoy1:  "Kildare is about a 2 hour drive from limerick and it takes about 2 hours to drive from west Kerry and longer again from south Kerry so limerick would be bout half way.

The GAA could do the decent thing and put the game on as part of a triple header in crokepark next weekend since they're dragging us all the way up there for a neutral game."
Some joke bringing Kerry Juniors to Navan today

Been an incredible summer for Kildare football. Minors into a Leinster Final, Seniors in the Super 8s and now our U20's into an All Ireland Final.

Brilliant performance today from all over the pitch but not surprisingly Jimmy Hyland will get a lot of the plaudits - and deservedly so. Scored 1-8 today from 1-14.

Well done Kildare fully deserved win, you have a star there in young Hyland. The loss of Clifford and O Se at under 20 has a definite impact.
Time for JOC to step away from county teams.
PS nice little dig Jimbo you can't help yourself really showing that maturity again.

It sure was, not sure what relevance it has on the under 20 thread though....

Wonderful full forward line, brilliant football skills from Kildare. Great to see Kildare teams going direct. What an impact Cian O Neill & Co Board have had since being the first ones to have the balls to take on the GAA & say NO, galvanized the county. Great game to watch y'day, if heads can be kept screwed on they should win it.

Fantastic game in Carrick. Mayo didn't play to our max but still liked through. Great speed in the forward line and very hard working.

Too loose at the back at times so will need to tighten up. Surprised at the Kildare v Kerry result. Should be a great final.

Don't know what the Kildare/Kerry game was like tho it sounds like a cracker but I was at the Derry/Mayo game and it was one of the most enjoyable games I've seen in a long time. Both teams attacked at will and dished up some superb fluid movement. Derry have some fine young lads and Mayo were brilliant in particular the half back line. The 2 Westport wingbacks McLaughlin and Lambert were class and obviously used lee Keegan as a template. This is a team well worth watching and from what I hear of Kildare the final should be a cracker.

Hung on in the end but overall I thought Kildare were a bit better and deserved to win.
Great football throughout, fielding was fantastic from both sets of midfielders.
Fantastic win!

Great win for the Lillies over the much fabled Kerry U20 team.

Leinster football will be all the better for it also.

Well done. Delighted for ye.

Kildare have had, and continue to have excellent underage football teams.
