Joe Brolly from the indo.... James O'Donoghue is over-rated. He made his reputation in two semis when he wasn't marked. If O'Donoghue is tightly marked he's not going to be that big of a factor. "Kerry's half forward line is also at a disadvantage. They're good footballers but uninspiring and Mayo's half back line are so dynamic. Can Kerry hold Lee Keegan? Can Mayo contain the Donaghy threat? That's where its going to be won or lost." As to who will win? "Kerry are the safe bet because of their efficiency and ruthlessness," says Brolly. "But you know, there's something about Mayo, something buoyant about them now that they are back on track after Roscommon. I'm going to go for Mayo."

I presume Lee Keegan is fit and well? Laois76 (Laois) - Posts: 1270 - 17/08/2017 21:47:07 2034910 Link 2 |
Jimbo is a bit like the man above 'omnipresent', but thankfully not all powerful. And definitely doesn't control the weather ;) Laois76 (Laois) - Posts: 1270 - 17/08/2017 21:48:43 2034913 Link 2 |
Jimbo very quiet lately, hardly worrying about the opposition. Laois76 (Laois) - Posts: 1270 - 17/08/2017 22:27:29 2034934 Link 2 |
Honestly I don't even think he takes himself seriously. He's just looking for a bit of a reaction and have people talking about him

Brolly saying O'Donoghue for Kerry over rated now. Bit of a trend emerging r. top class Kerry forwards. Laois76 (Laois) - Posts: 1270 - 17/08/2017 23:02:35 2034951 Link 2 |
So you are honestly telling me that the Mayo players will be in some way surprised if they beat Kerry? Good man.

By that post i mean a pattern emerging with Brolly criticising top Kerry forwards. i wasn't referring to the quality of Kerry's top forwards, which is never in doubt. Laois76 (Laois) - Posts: 1270 - 18/08/2017 10:41:08 2035028 Link 2 |
I was listening to Joe Brolly questioning James O Donoghue and saying is he over rated, I couldn't believe what Joe was saying , O Donoghue is class and when fully fit the best Kerry forward by a mile imo , also he's best friends with lee keegan after they had a chat after the Roscommon game lee's his favourite right now. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 18/08/2017 10:58:15 2035034 Link 1 |
Joe is stirring it, ahead of the game. He might have a point though.

That's it re. someone being his favourite. Whoever's flavour of the month. Very childish. Reminds me of Dunphy when he loved Roy Keane, then fell out with him and was eulogising DJ Carey for a while! Laois76 (Laois) - Posts: 1270 - 18/08/2017 11:09:10 2035048 Link 2 |
One thing I can't understand is why Fitzmaurice is playing Jonny Buckley it makes zero sense to me , I don't like slagging him off cause he's seems like a sound lad and he's a good player but he lacks pace big time and he's been found out a million times in these bigger games, Mayo's backs who are fast and won't stop running all game will give him an awful time of it, what happened to the Kerry number 11 from the league final he seemed like the answer for centre forward to me. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 18/08/2017 11:48:17 2035064 Link 0 |
Honestly, every time I hear Joe Brolly, all I can do is laugh. You can't take him seriously and it's all just a bit of fun! surfdude62 (Kerry) - Posts: 46 - 18/08/2017 12:02:31 2035072 Link 0 |
Thinks its 50/50 for me. If both teams play to potential think we could sneakbit by 2 theshamen (Mayo) - Posts: 129 - 18/08/2017 12:04:19 2035073 Link 0 |
I do indeed but I'm not quite sure that you do. An exclamation mark does not convey that you are not being serious, in fact in conveys the exact opposite. Have a look for yourself. https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/punctuation/exclamation-mark-point Thanks for the good wishes. the_walls (Mayo) - Posts: 495 - 18/08/2017 12:16:37 2035078 Link 0 |
He was pretty impressive the last day, though I agree with you that he has been too inconsistent in the past. Needs another big big game on Sunday.
