Replying To legendzxix:  "Mayo and Kerry have recovered from setbacks in recent years. Mayo against Cavan. Kerry in Tullamore. Mayo against Roscommon. Kerry in Round 1. A lot of people forget that Mayo were only knocked out by Donegal last year with the last kick of the game. Just as I was warning about Tyrone being a tough opponent, Mayo will be a tough opponent as well."
Yerra. It in the bag. Beating the dubs in home league pitch was final. Mayo haven't hope , had handy side of draw. Kerry like against meath last year gave Donegal the walkover. Resting lads and other in heavy training at time.

Dublin haven't lost an All-Ireland final to a Connacht team in almost 100 years. Very few teams have lost a final to Connacht opposition unfortunately. Our record in finals in appalling. Throw in the hurling and it's even worse.
