We'll have a hell of a fight on our hands with Tyrone looking to put the record straight against us. I think we have the stomach for battle as well as the skill to kick the vital scores, but we'll see. Time for the build up. realdub (Dublin) - Posts: 8821 - 12/08/2018 17:15:08 2132288 Link
Can't disagree with any of that. I will say fairplay to them for getting to a final after taking a hammering from the dubs last year galwayfball (Galway) - Posts: 1716 - 12/08/2018 17:21:48 2132299 Link
Dubs to walk it again. They won't have seen anything today that would bother them. M Lyster (Antrim) - Posts: 506 - 12/08/2018 17:32:04 2132308 Link
If Tyrone are to make a game of it they need to press high like they did in first half - no handy kick outs for Cluxton- however the worry from the red hand perspective is their scoring conversion rate v the Dubs - they need to address that otherwise only one winner for me.

Replying To M Lyster: "Dubs to walk it again. They won't have seen anything today that would bother them." Hard to disagree with that view. 4 in a row is on. thelongridge (Offaly) - Posts: 1879 - 12/08/2018 17:37:47 2132313 Link
Dublin by 5. The four in a row is inevitable, and it won't stop there. Until the GAA addresses the farcical financial imbalance we're going to see this unfair Dublin dominance continue. Thankfully fans are starting to vote with their feet as evidenced by the paltry semi-final attendances. The message to the GAA is simple, sort out the Dublin debacle.

If money brings success I'm dying to hear your expert analysis on underage lack of success, or do you read in here catch the sound bites you like and regurgitate them as your own. Money has won nothing basic skills superior coaching from Gavin a volunteer, you could show some respect and recognize it , or go for lazy cliche posts. The reason i probably prefer hurling at the moment is posters like you don't exist in that code , best team tends to win and get recognized for it , and don't have to listen to the crap you come out with some how trying to tarnish achievements Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 12/08/2018 18:09:01 2132342 Link

Sure Tyrone's movement on opponents free kicks won't have gone unnoticed by Jim expect Rock to practice frees with the defence doing the can can in front of him. Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 12/08/2018 18:13:31 2132346 Link

Galway in 3 finals minor football and hurling and senior hurling final nothing said. Dublin in one final and it's down to money. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 12/08/2018 18:30:41 2132354 Link
Twill be no narrowing of pitches coming up!! None whatsoever. It'll be tough but expect Dublin to win after a purple patch or two for Tyrone. Dublin's options from the bench this year is top notch and they are all in form. Tyrone just don't have that.. and same awful wides for Tyrone today that's been haunting them for years now. Feel Tyrone really showed their hand today. Think there's plenty to be learned from Tyrone today. You won't be seeing Dublin running into swarm tackles time after time and really slow build up play like Monaghan today and getting turned over. Not sure what Monaghan's game plan was.. just a really poor showing All those battles against Mayo will have Dublin completely prepared for this AI final. Gas.. a team that loses twice gets to an All Ireland final.. Weird. First time that's ever happened right? Tyrone 2018 - The best losers to ever reach a final! Dubs unbeaten. There will only be one ALL Ireland champion this year. Up the Dubs #fantastic4 jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20763 - 12/08/2018 19:03:47 2132367 Link

Ah look, sure we are just privileged to be on the same pitch as Dublin, if you had told me that we would be in an AI final 12 months after last years humiliation at the hands of Dublin I wouldn't have believed you. brendtheredhand (Tyrone) - Posts: 10897 - 12/08/2018 19:20:59 2132373 Link

We will be hammered there's no doubt about it. But at least we're there! bigboon (Tyrone) - Posts: 50 - 12/08/2018 19:43:33 2132380 Link
Replying To realdub: "Ah brend are ya out of retirement for this Mickey Mouse game :D" Come on now realdub, you know that today was only a contest to see who loses to Dublin on 2nd September. But we have three weeks to enjoy the build up, get a bit of bunting up and enjoy the occasion, 10 years has been a long time. brendtheredhand (Tyrone) - Posts: 10897 - 12/08/2018 19:50:03 2132384 Link

Saw that too...very cycincal....and Tyrone are not the only team doing it. Surprised refs don't pick up on it. The Dubs will have taken notice like you say and will be ready for it county man (Limerick) - Posts: 1156 - 12/08/2018 20:13:27 2132397 Link
