Sorry didn't answer your question. Yes it should Cluxton was 4' off his line. Should have been an easy call.

Bitterness is not a good look! Well done to Kerry and Dublin; thankfully people who want to acknowledge football will have seen today's match for what it was :)

I must say I disagree, I think it was a penatly in the first half and I thought the one in the 2nd was just outside but I'd like to see it again to be sure. Ah look I agree the technology isn't perfect, but I suppose it's better than leaving umpires guessing, anyway it's done now so we can just look forward to the next day.

And here is the reason why even though they are the greatest team never to win all ire, many people don't feel much empathy for them.

Oh yes I was wrong, my apologies. All things considered I think Kerry blew it, had the extra man and the lead in added time and still couldn't get the job done. Htaem (Meath) - Posts: 8657 - 01/09/2019 18:20:22 2231372 Link 4 |
Penalty by the rules was a penalty, red card was a red card, yellow and ticked previously for dragging, he dragged him down. The rules state it's a yellow, therefore bot decisions correct, actually thought it was one of the best reffed finals I have ever seen. He missed a few things but not many. He can be very proud tonight of his performance, and he certainly put to bed the bs that was thrown at him from a bitter ex manager

I agree with you 100% on HawkEye it's a vast improvement. My point on it was It was something I hadn't seen before. I sure as hell didnt know whether it was inside or out. It's the technology in use so it has to be trusted on close calls. Still don't know why it isn't used for goals.

Jack Barry....a very average player. Great in the soft ground in the national league when players aren't going full tilt but doesn't have the engine to stick with a dynamic midfielder. Look....Dublin were 5 points up until they went down a man. This allowed Kerry to flood their defence not allowing the Dublin inside line the room to do what they usually do. Also, Kerry were having fierce difficulty retaining their own sickout until the sending off. Impossible for Dublin to press the kickout after that. Totally changed the dynamic of the game. I can't see anything but a 10 point win for Dublin replay. Mannion, McCarthy, Fenton, O' Callaghan have got a bad game out of their system and will be chomping at the bit to make amends the next day.

Alot of people saying Kerry left it behind then, and will be turned over more comfortably the next day. They did leave it behind them, but I think they'll push on and win. Alot is also being made of the 14 v 15 men, many teams win with 14. Kerry were creating more chances than Dublin before the red, just weren't converting. Once their confidence was up, they started to convert. They know what it's like to come up against Dublin now and that match will bring on alot of their young players hugely. They will go into the next game with more genuine belief and confidence, and I reckon will be far more clinical now that they know what they're up against, the nerves they put themselves under will be gone. 32_4_1 (Meath) - Posts: 4122 - 01/09/2019 18:35:42 2231390 Link 2 |
Don't want your empathy or anyone else's. Kerry got 70% of the calls today. You obviously see it differently so. Have a nice day.

There is a lot of conspiracy theories about Hawkeye but that point today made my mind up on it, clearly a score.

It wasn't Jack Barry's fault the forwards weren't converting their chances. Only good in the national league? He was pulling balls down from the sky all day, throwing himself about and causing havoc for Dublin's midfield. If you think he's average, you're talking rubbish quite frankly. He's a top player

It looked like a score to me too. The kerry keeper seemed very confident it was wide even before Hawkeye but yes on the hawkeye replay it was clearly inside the posts

Q for the dubs on here ? Surely of ye win the 5 in a row this will be a much more satisfying way to win it . To be actually challenged as opposed to the walk in the park games you have all the time galwayfball (Galway) - Posts: 1678 - 01/09/2019 18:44:40 2231397 Link 0 |
A very enjoyable game which, I have to say, was also well refereed. Yes David Gough got a couple of things wrong but then so did the players, they are all only human after all. MuckrossHead (Donegal) - Posts: 5028 - 01/09/2019 18:45:04 2231398 Link 1 |
Cooper's second yellow wasn't a foul. I don't think O'Sullivan or Cooper should have been sent off. But on how he was officiating the game for consistency then by his own interpretation O'Sullivan should have walked. All the big refereeing decisions were made against Dublin. The other 95% of the time he did a good job but those big calls nearly cost Dublin today. If Maurice Deegan gets the replay then Kerry are deciding who gets to referee.

Right as usual. What a game. What an atmosphere. This Dublin team doesn't know when to give up. Can't wait for round 2.

Super game. Pity Kerry left 2-4 easy behind them in first half. But they were playing against 14 so Dublin deserve huge credit. I thought the ref was good, wasn't biased either way, can't get everything right. Cooper deserved to go. Brolly and Whelan were hilarious.

Great prediction. Spare us your Mystic Meg act in future please. Let those who know something about football do the analysis.
