Kerry Vs Tyrone

Replying To BarneyGrant:  "The unknown factor is whether Kerry will get the jibbers when they see the Red Hand in a big game again? I know they've beaten them well last couple of times, but more pressure on Kerry this year, and Dooher and Logan be the boys to know where to get at them

Tyrone, along with current Dubs have joined Down of the 60s as the three sides that have really gotten the psychological upper hand on Kerry.

Kerry might have the wherewithal to make that count for little this time, but if Tyrone can keep it close, the old demons might start to nag away!"
I am hopeful for the game and hope Kerry will be complacent. Their backs are also probably alot weaker than Tyrone's.

However, that hoodoo probably belongs in another era. Tyrone possibly could have won in 2015 and they absolutely left that game behind them in 2019. I think the current Tyrone team has more ghosts to banish than Kerry do.

My heart, head, wallet the works says Kerry will not only beat Tyrone but actually win the All Ireland too!!
Kerry definitely have the skillful players and manpower to dethrone Dublin in the 2021 All Ireland Final.

Well I hope you're right katser and I hope you win a load of money.

Tyrone are going to do exactly what their 03 team did to us which is tare into us with savage intensity and give our players no time on the ball but I think we might try and do the same to Tyrone so it could get a bit crazy.

Like I said I'm my first post we have the worst defense of the 4 teams left and everyone knows we're clane open down the middle so Tyrone will get the goal chances but will they take them is the question.

I can't see us opening that Tyrone defence for 6 goals either as they've shut up shop at the back.

I'm not Catch22 at all. He really seems to hate Kerry altogether, whereas I would like to see ye win Sam just about once every decade. I don't like to see any one team dominate the scene, so I'm not too enamored to see the big blue bulldozer bury all before it. However, to see the miffing, the muddling and the madness that Dublin's dominance foments in Kerry people does provide a source of certain solace and satisfaction.

Tyrone have had a good campaign and can be very proud of winning the Anglo celt, but that'll be about as good as it gets. I fancy Kerry to win by 8+ points and can see the Tyrone keeper dropping a big clanger in the game.
Kerry will meet the Dubs in the final who will retain their status as All Ireland champs

If the current Tyrone team manage to do as you suggest, it'll be the first time in over a decade they've managed to do so. Lot depends on McShane, and he's still semi-injured and miles off his best, it was primarily his name kept him on the pitch last weekend tbh. I'm not even nervous about this game, which tells you all you need to know. I'd rather we were facing Dublin at this point. Dublin, if they get past Mayo on their current slight dip in form, will in my view be back on song for the final, but there is a v small chink in their armour for the next week or so. But Kerry are a team on form right now. I probably will watch it; but there is no chance whatsoever of Tyrone winning this, and I'm not at all optimistic that we'll even make a game of it. That's my honest opinion.

Hopefully staying on the pitch will have brought Mcshane on for this game. Think Tyrone need him to be playing better to win this game.

Shocking decision by the GAA to make this game a double header with the All Ireland U20 final. It took them some grafting to get the attendance bumped from 18,000 to 24,000 and then to take all that away by ensuring the 24,000 will now be between 4 counties and many other neutrals who will want to see a novel U20 final pairing between Offaly and Roscommon/Down along with the small matter of the Semi afterwards, which effectively means it will be almost mission impossible for Kerry and Tyrone supporters to get tickets from public sale (if they even go on sale publicly). I'm absolutely furious by this decision, that final could have been easily played in Cavan or Clones with a very respectable capacity set and have those 24,000 tickets exclusively for the Semi Final. My chances of getting a ticket have gone from very slim, to absolutely none.

Without going over a comment on a previous board, Kerry's previous record in selling tickets for All Ireland semi final's rightly or wrongly has likely been considered in making the decision to play the U20 final beforehand.

Realistically will Kerry bring more than three or four thousand to this game? Tyrone will likely bring around 10 - 15 thousand, more likely closer to 10 than 15. That would leave around eight to ten thousand for the two U20 finalists, tickets they'll sell. I predict there will be more tickets sold in Offaly than Kerry for this game, and that will probably be the same in Roscommon or Down as well. I understand why Kerry don't bring thousands to semi final's but with their previous record the GAA might not have sold 24000 tickets if it was left to just Kerry and Tyrone with a few neutrals. Good decision and best place for the U20's to play an All Ireland final.

Are tickets not going through clubs? They are in Dublin again afaik.

I sincerely hope that GAA is not going to compound the snub to county pass and season ticket holders by throwing the next games open to on line free for all.

Kerry by 6+. This Tyrone side are a pale shadow of previous ones. They aren't direct enough, are ponderous and prone to losing possession at times. Kerry have better, and more dangerous, players. They will have far too much firepower for Tyrone.

It's a total joke, tickets were going to be hard to get tickets as it is but now it's going to be worse if that was possible.

They wouldnt do this to their dubs would they?

Daft decision to play the U20 Final before the Kerry v Tyrone game. There was no doubt that Kerry v Tyrone potential attendance on it's own was going to be more than the 24,000 allowed. Daft. Daft. Daft.
