Cant believe we were beaten. Honestly didnt see it coming lads. I have to admit, I secretly was far more confident that I let on. Look Mayo, ye deserve it. Well done and congrats. Here's hoping we get a crack at ye next year to atone. We didnt perform atall. Liamwalkinstown (Dublin) - Posts: 8166 - 20/09/2016 10:58:21 1916803 Link 4 |
That auld Drumcondra monsoon must have cleared up. Better fishing conditions this morning. Poor enough effort compared to previous enthralling threads though I'd have to say.

When I started reading your post just for one split second there I actually thought WE HAD lost it. Feel like I've woken from a brief nightmare. avonali (Dublin) - Posts: 1974 - 20/09/2016 11:19:57 1916815 Link 2 |

Am I missing something here? Having attended the final on Sunday and leaving the ground after the match ended a draw, I feel like mayo somehow won the game. The media spin has gone into overdrive, marvelling at the performance, how they got their match ups and tactics spot on, how they seen out the game better, how they brought a level of unprecedented bravery and commitment to the game and how they made Dublin look human and not super human. However the harsh reality of it is they drew a game, it is irrelevant whether or not the should or could have won it and if they don't win saturday week then all this hype over the last few days means absolutely nothing. Yes there was a lot to like about their performance and possibly it will give them confidence to go on and finish the job but really nothing has changed since last week. Both teams have still the opportunity to win Sam and address the issues that arose on Sunday and the team that has learnt the most will more than likely win.

More drivel from Liam. Well done. Just to be clear, the only thing I have heard is that Dublin didn't perform and will win the replay as they won't play that bad again. Sure it's that simple.

Was nearly as bad as reading the internet and listening to the panelists on the Sunday Game who you would have sworn that the result of Sunday was down to Dublin not playing and "sure they won't play as bad as that the next time". They were obviously watching a different game to I was. Offside_Rule (Antrim) - Posts: 4058 - 20/09/2016 12:39:12 1916866 Link 0 |
Joe Brolly sums it up perfectly, on the one hand he writes a piece destroying Mayo and their credentials for winning the title pre-match, calling them spoilt brats. Post match he's their biggest cheerleader keithlemon (Australia) - Posts: 920 - 20/09/2016 13:08:16 1916888 Link 0 |

We survived an encounter with the unbeatable Dubs and yet some people think we're cursed! Yes, God sure did smile on us last Sunday! Pericles (Mayo) - Posts: 2521 - 20/09/2016 13:54:26 1916912 Link 0 |

We all know the media like to spin things a certain way to suit themselves, this is a great Dublin team, no doubt about that, Mayo had their chance but could not finish the job as we have seen from them countless times, they had Dublin on the ropes but haven't got what it takes to deliver the knockout blow, so we get a draw and the reigning champions will be out to prove just how good they really are the next day, Mayo will get a tanking, Dubs to win easy by 5+ game could be over by half time.

Speaks volumes about the poster you'd have to say. Incredible that it got through the mods.

And if he is the same weight as a duck he is made of wood and therefore also a witch. Burn her!!!

So basically all the geniuses on this and other threads are saying that Mayo only came close because Dublin under-performed. Bosco98 (Galway) - Posts: 127 - 20/09/2016 21:22:53 1917168 Link 0 |
