Best of luck in the final, the games and results this year have been mad, don't worry about Kerry being the favourites, go out and play the game Mayo can and you can win it.

Well here we go again….another final. Nice buzz around the county this week but somewhat grounded all the same. Can we do it? Yes we can but match ups, kickouts, intensity and kicking is going to have to spot on. I also firmly believe a curve ball from management will be needed to stop this Kerry team…what that is I don't know. Traveling in anticipation and as always hope. Safe traveling to all supporters. See ye on the other side.

A Mayo win would be one of the greatest days in Irish sport and i find it hard to believe even some Kerry fans would begrudge their opponents the win.

Hopefully they give it a great shot and give it everything.

The reason we watch and love sport is because of it's unpredictability and thats why there is always belief.

Best of luck to Mayo Sunday

Ive been wavering between optimism and despair all week.
But I am certain there is a route to victory.

If Kerry line out as selected, I would do the following

Coyne on P Clifford,
Mc Greal on D Geaney
McHugh on D Clifford
Hession on S O S
McBrien on J O Connor
Coen on D O Connor
Callinan on G White

Coen plays as the help defender, with D O Connor not much of a scoring threat.

If Im Kerry, I dropping D O Connor into midfield and playing P Clifford (with SOS) on the 40 and picking another scorer.
Coens role can be exploited by a 2 point shooter. That would force Callinan back to HB line, leaving White v Coen - a big mismatch in speed.
