Also after the Semi-Final in 2015 when Dublin and Mayo drew I thought it was the end of the road for that Dublin team…….. I didn't see any way that Kerry could win the All-Ireland in 2014 either. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13707 - 21/03/2017 10:17:05 1969394 Link

Mes I can also recall you saying that Kev Mc and DC just didn't have it jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20600 - 21/03/2017 11:24:13 1969427 Link
Replying To jimbodub: "Mes I can also recall you saying that Kev Mc and DC just didn't have it" Yep, guilty as charged Jim! I wasn't a fan of Connolly at all. I didn't think he was good enough (mainly down to inconsistency). It was a harsh summary seeing as he was still young at the time. Delighted to have been proved so very very wrong. I thought Kev Mc was headless on the ball, in my defence I think I was right then! He has since improved massively. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13707 - 21/03/2017 11:47:54 1969438 Link
Thinking Pat was 100% right about puke football. He kinda was at the time but 2005 changed that for me once it evolved. Bit like Donegal 2011 vs 2012. They both were laying foundations for something awesome Superglue (Kerry) - Posts: 1283 - 21/03/2017 12:12:35 1969443 Link

After David Gough admitting he got the Kevin Mac foul wrong in last year's semi final is everyone in Dublin now wrong about that? ;) cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5012 - 21/03/2017 12:32:53 1969451 Link
I used to think Bernard Brogan was a chancer who didn't have the stones to be a truly top class intercounty forward. Hands up on that count! JoeSoap (Donegal) - Posts: 1432 - 21/03/2017 12:40:27 1969455 Link

Replying To cavanman47: "After David Gough admitting he got the Kevin Mac foul wrong in last year's semi final is everyone in Dublin now wrong about that? ;)" Absolutely But remember thread is about you personally admitting your wrong , the history of Hoganstand is about telling others their wrong Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 21/03/2017 12:55:19 1969463 Link
2008 - I couldn't see KK beating Waterford. On paper they were stronger all over the field imo but I can see now that the TIpp-KK rivalry wanted me to believe that! tiobraid (Tipperary) - Posts: 4119 - 21/03/2017 13:08:15 1969472 Link
Replying To cavanman47: "After David Gough admitting he got the Kevin Mac foul wrong in last year's semi final is everyone in Dublin now wrong about that? ;)" ?????????? I think anyone of saw the super slow motion replay a number of times saw that it was a foul alright and said as much afterwards so don't see your point. Unfortunately the ref only saw it once in real time and like the majority of people thought it was a fair shoulder. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13707 - 21/03/2017 13:17:37 1969477 Link

Similar cant remember the year , Waterford played Limerick in semi final , I think having already beaten them and for the life of me there could only be one winner WRONG Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 21/03/2017 13:38:12 1969489 Link
