I've heard a lot of loose talk about Kerry throwing curve balls but I'm expecting Dublin to throw a few of their own. I expect Dublin to hammer the hammer and attack Kerry at midfield and I'm tipping Brain Fenton to be man of the match. Dublin's whole season has been primed towards peaking today and when you consider they really weren't that gung-ho for the league this year and still won it in a canter they are a magnificently side.

I agree with Joe Brolly that this final is boring and predictable for the other 30 counties. Dream final my anus indeed (not to offend any one!) thelongridge (Offaly) - Posts: 1751 - 20/09/2015 13:05:26 1789479 Link 0 |

Terrible conditions and a very one-sided contest really, actually much more one-sided than even I thought it would be. I did expect Dublin to run over Kerry and ultimately win pulling up and so it came to pass. JamesH (Mayo) - Posts: 465 - 20/09/2015 18:08:39 1789638 Link 0 |
Well done Dublin, best team by far, Kerry seemed very flat. Some were predicting a close game, others said Dublin would hammer Kerry and others said Kerry would win easy, the truth is Dublin learned a lot from the 2 Mayo games, firstly they played the whole 70 odd mins, didn't lose concentration, didn't allow Kerry to get back into the game and most importantly contested and won majority of kickouts in midfield. The use of Paul Flynn for kickouts worked a treat, some were wondering should he be dropped for the game but you can't drop a player of his quality. I had said 2 weeks ago that if Dublin didn't sort out their problems that showed up v Mayo Kerry would win easy, Dublin done just that, they sorted out their problems, used Flynn as a target for kickouts, kept the concentration, contested midfield, kept Connolly on the pitch, told Philly McMahon to attack at all times and keep Gooch in the Kerry defence instead of up in forwards where he was needed. Dublin showed in the 2 Mayo games how to snuff out the target man in front of goals so it was stupid of Kerry to use that tactic, the Dublin defence had a great game and when Donaghy cane on they held him out, well done to them. Dublin and Jim Gavin got it spot on, the only complaint I would have is putting Kevin Mac in too early, he is an impact sub and should have come on during the 2nd half and get the crowd roaring instead of halftime where nobody barely noticed. Again well done to Dublin All Ireland Champions 2015 riverboys (Mayo) - Posts: 1389 - 20/09/2015 20:51:10 1789786 Link 0 |
