Kerry by 7. Hopefully just 7 points ... essmac (Tyrone) - Posts: 1141 - 27/08/2021 09:17:57 2375151 Link
Really looking forward to this game. I think if Tyrone can attack the heart of the Kerry defence there may be scores there for them. But Kerry were so convincing in the league win they may have know how to work the ball through to get their own scores. Two excellent teams, should be a great game and no matter who goes through there are the makings of a great all Ireland final. slayer (Limerick) - Posts: 6480 - 27/08/2021 10:12:43 2375161 Link
Kerry beginning to get worried. They have been thinking for past couple of weeks that this would be a handy game for them. Give them a bit of a run out before the Final. Tyrone going in with a nothing to lose mentality and Jerry getting twitchy. You can see it in the comments of their ex players this week. Tyrone to create a huge shock. mayotyroneman (Tyrone) - Posts: 1821 - 27/08/2021 10:31:37 2375165 Link
With all of the disruption that Tyrone have had and Kerry laying waste to all before them you'd have to fancy the green machine to progress with a 7-8 point winning margin. Joxer (Dublin) - Posts: 4734 - 27/08/2021 10:45:06 2375171 Link
Kerry to win tomorrow. MicktheMiller (Offaly) - Posts: 421 - 27/08/2021 11:02:05 2375176 Link
Replying To Joxer: "With all of the disruption that Tyrone have had and Kerry laying waste to all before them you'd have to fancy the green machine to progress with a 7-8 point winning margin." Agree. Defeat tomorrow for Kerry would be a disaster and possibly the end of PK. But can't see it happening Cbar (Mayo) - Posts: 332 - 27/08/2021 11:08:45 2375180 Link
Amazing recovery by the full red hand panel - advantage Tyrone. .Looking forward to this game. greysoil (Monaghan) - Posts: 965 - 27/08/2021 11:24:27 2375183 Link
It's a bit of a free shot for Tyrone to have a real go at Kerry, all the expectation is for a handy Kerry win so it is a serious banana skin. Still feel that Kerry should have too much for Tyrone this time, but it's not a given. moylagh (Meath) - Posts: 485 - 27/08/2021 12:03:43 2375194 Link

Still feel that Kerry should have too much for Tyrone this time, but it's not a given." The expectation is all coming from the media and the bookies moylagh, all the Kerry people that I know and that I meet are very wary of Tyrone and we're very aware that Tyrone are an excellent team that they are well capable of beating us on the day, anyway it matters little what us Kerry and Tyrone supporters think as we're only all guessing as to what might happen, it could be a day when a little known player like a Darragh Canavan or Dara Moynihan stands up to be the hero.

I expect Kerry to win the match but I have no idea why the bookies have us 7 or 8 points favourites in the handicap. I don't think we are as good as people are saying and Tyrone are a better team then 8 points off us. Of course nobody knows what performance these teams will bring after such a long layoff but it would be a bit foolish to expect Kerry to turn up and hammer this tyrone team. If tyrone have the majority of their team fit to play with the likes of McShane and McCurry on form then they are a tough team to beat. Both teams know that Mayo are waiting in the final and not Dublin, it's a winnable final compared to the last few years especially for Tyrone so I'm expecting a tighter game then what is predicted.

Would agree that it will probably come down to the lesser lights on both sides. Hopefully won't be one of those games that turns into paralysis by analysis. All the best to both and may the best team win!!! moylagh (Meath) - Posts: 485 - 27/08/2021 13:27:15 2375218 Link

Thanks moylagh and ya I reckon it could get crazy and I know il get stick for this but I think this game is 50/50, i think the 5 week lay off could effect Kerry and of course the Covid could effect Tyrone. May the best team win. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 27/08/2021 14:27:00 2375225 Link

Tyrone have had a good tough run and come out of ulster, but listening to some of the other posters here you'd be forgiven for thinking that tyrone players would struggle to walk after getting "it" (I didn't mention the C word), let alone play a championship game.

Can't see Kerry's forward line being held given their goal glut this year, the recent league encounter with Tyrone and the Red Hands' recent covid issues.

Looking forward to this, it's great that the right decision was made. Common sense isn't very common, especially in Gaa circles, but fair play to whoever made the decisions on this occasion. Tyrone are backs to the wall, but cannot be written off. Kerry are one hell of a team now that some key lads are a bit older. Nonetheless, I think the moment when with 17 minutes on the clock and Brian Hurley collected possession on the sideline, rounded Jason Foley with ease and breezed through unchallenged to stick it in the net, I think that was the moment the top teams will have raised an eyebrow and took stock. How will Kerry approach this game? Will they be as attack minded as the Cork game or will they be more cautious. I suspect they will be more cautious like they were in 2019 when these two met. Kerry showed great steel and composure that day. On the whole I would say both teams have improved considerably since that game. Tyrone have to get the ball to McCurry, the man is on fire. I thought they starved him of possession in the Ulster final second half, and even then he was winning marks above his head. I think Tyrone will be very up for this esp now the dubs are gone. I dont envy who ever is refereeing this one. Kerry by 3 97Cavans (Cavan) - Posts: 385 - 27/08/2021 16:20:46 2375251 Link
Hard to take anything from the league meeting except that Tyrone didn't seem right for that game. The fear is that with all the disruption they won't be right for the game tomorrow either, thus the 7 or 8 point handicap. I can't see the Kingdom losing unless Tyrone have no pandemic hangover and Kerry have lost focus given the long wait. Whoever wins will have better momentum going into the final since Mayo will have 4 weeks to cool down. I think Kerry will do it and probably by that 7 or 8 point margin.
