Replying To KerryAllIrelandChampions2025:  "Still a relatively young team. Tom Sullivan, Jack Barry, Mark O'Connor Stefan Okunbor, David Shaw, Shane O'Carroll and Diarmuid O'Connor pushing for starting slots . Can Kerry do back to back?"
Come on Galway or Mayo, stick it to the arrogant Kerry lads.

Replying To The_analyser:  "Dublin are in major transition, quarter final spot was basically their level the level the last two years and that is unlikely to change much in year one under a new manager.

As for Kerry, looks like Jack O'Connor is stepping down and unless they find a suitable replacement they will struggle to retain their title"
Shrewd and astute Jack O' Connor will not be going anywhere particularly if Cian O' Neill stays. Very impressed with how Kerry were coached on Sunday. Most of that team played on the five in a row minor teams and the S&C is also showing allied to their immense talent. There is several All Irelands to won between Kerry and the improving Tyrone team in the next few years (Serious underage talent). I would say most of the negotiations will be with Kerry Group rather than with his wife in the next few of weeks.

Replying To Lockjaw:  "I can see next year being very competitive again, but Kerry will undoubtedly be the front-runner.
Kerry remind me a bit of the famous Guardiola Barcelona team. They have an outstanding set of players all very comfortable in what they're doing with and without the ball. To top it off, they have their very own Messi.


Towards the end of the decade, I can see a revival of the famous 00s Tyrone-Kerry rivalry."
The Tyrone-Kerry rivalry is one of many already in progress. Success for Tyrone in '21. Kerry in '22. '23 and '25 head to heads went Kerry's way. Tyrone continue to be a formidable challenge. No doubts about that. I thought they would have made the Ulster final.
