What a game

Kerry's last two points came from frees that should never have been given. They were lucky to be awarded the second penalty too.

There must be a new rule that Kerry cannot pick up a black card between the two 65s. How many cynical fouls have they done?

About 50 less than Mayo at this stage, evens stevens in that area. Ref has his own rule book anyway, pulling, dragging, slapping, third man tackles, playing ball on the ground. Hasn't spoilt the excitement though.

Great stuff altogether!! Ref is poor giving Kerry two frees and a pen for nothing!!

I still think the ref was correct to send off Keegan last week!

Mayor are much better than this. Kerry have blown a great chance last week and again there.

Mayo by 3 or 4 in ET for me.

Referee having a howler. How long does an advantage go on for? Penalties that weren't penalties

Proportionally I think you are wrong but generally I find it difficult to watch as a neutral as midfield is Kerry's springboard for the ball into Donaghy and the Kerry forwards.

Beam me up Scotty!

+1
If it was any other team (bar the Dubs) they would not have been awarded!

And watching Cavan is entertainment I suppose! ;)

See the Dubs are still afraid of Kerry,every Dub is hoping Mayo win because they figure Mayo will flop again in the final.
The Dubs would be better off to worry about getting past Donegal first,or are ye believing ye're own hype?
I think this ref is great,ket the game go,who cares about every silly rule,it is brilliant entertainment,who can watch that boring soccer rubbish.
Kerry by one, GAA on course for the dream final, Kerry v .... Donegal LOL>

It's like watching an exciting junior b game. Shocking football ... Dublin and Donegal must be in stitches... And much as it pains me cork management were right why is the ref constantly leaving mayo forwards hold the Kerry backs ???? Not tackling just holding and dragging

I think a draw is the right full time result but hats off to Mayo for coming back twice with players that don't have the panache of the Kerry forwards, o'Connor excluded.

Looking like mayo will push on. Great game though.

Well it certainly won't be anything Tyrone will have to worry about as no hopers.
