Tipperary v Mayo

(Oldest Posts First) - Go To The Latest Post


A qualifier county will make the All-Ireland final for the first time since 2010. Both counties have shown the way for all qualifiers. Learn from defeat and kick on.

Mayo have lost out to the eventual winners 4 years in-a-row. If they make the final as expected they'll either win or lose to the eventual winner for the 5th year in-a-row. Will it be Mayo's year?

Tipperary are a good side, playing some excellent football so Mayo won't be taking this for granted (or at least they certainly shouldn't be). Tipperary are a great example of what can be done in a county once the right work is put in and fairplay them, they've done brilliantly to reach the AI semi final and they're in with a great chance of going further.

As for Mayo, I wouldn't mind seeing them get the monkey off their backs and finally win an AI, I find it hard to see past the winner of Dublin v Kerry though, which almost certainly will be Dublin.

Mayo are in the final already no doubt about that. They should now prepare for Dublin- they will not let anything out of the bag for the semi final. Rest the star players- then go hell for leather in the final.

Ive a funny feeling that the Tipp men will be secretly happy at todays result.
If they play like they did against us I really dont see why they cant make the final.

I'm with you on that Paddy, ye should definitely rest up the big players for the final.

Lads just give us a few days to recover before we start thinking about Tipperary. My blood pressure has just dropped below 200/150. I'm too old for this!!

Tipp are a good team- but this is Mayo's year and Mayo's time.

I've seen some arrogant and disrespectful comments on here and this one would easily make the top ten.

Last I checked Tipp gave Galway a lesson on football. How did you fare against Galway?

I had a few posters thought I was off my trolley when I forecast a Mayo (football) and Galway double. I'm looking good at this stage even if I am standing in front of my mirror.

Definitely agree Mayo should use their full panel give some lads game time.
They will b fresh to face into the Dubs then in September.
Tipp may as well not turn up we haven't a hope.
Not even a Novena will stop Mayo giving us a mother of all hidings.

Looking forward to this one. Mayo play a similar type of football to Tipp and I expect a very good game with lots of scores.

That said, I can only see one winner here. Mayo should have too much for Tipp, they simply have better players and more experience. Tipp looked very ordinary against Kerry in the Munster final and I am sceptical as to whether they've improved enough to beat a resurgent Mayo. I know they beat some very good teams on the way to through the qualifiers but this is surely a bridge too far? I hope I'm wrong and we get an absolute cracker of a game.

Mayo could be heading back to Croke Park to make up the numbers in another all Ireland final.

Thought this was supposed to be Farney's year.

A great match up. I'd love the all Ireland winner to come from this match up. The best thing about the other semi is one of kerry and Dublin are guaranteed to lose. And good riddance.
