People can do what they want but society as a whole is dumbed down and reality tv is a large part of that. People have no idea what's going on in the real world and don't care for that matter. They are easily distracted by rubbish like love island.

Replying To hlynch12:  "Since 2011 Dublin have held the upper hand.

Kerry beaten by the better team, some sore ones but that was an exceptional Dublin team.

Kerry have a fully fit 26 with the exception of Shane Ryan.

In hindsight Dublin did really well but Donegal looked a beaten docket and Galway are a team thats so poorly coached and how they have a junior B goal keeper is beyond me.

This Kerry team have matured and are extremely well coached by Cian ONeill and Donaghty.

Dublins old guard has dragged them back from the brink this summer and ive no doubt theyll fight to the end on Sunday.

It will come down to 2nd half and who can come in and make an impact.

I just don't see that punch from Dublins bench compared to Kerrys

Seanie

Tom Sullivan

Keith Evan

Paul Murphy

Killian Spillane

Tony Brosnan

Heinrich

All can make a big impact.

Then we get to Con or Clifford.

Both will cause havoc but Clifford has a point to prove and my gut tells me he will make a serious statement.

For me Kerry have too much upfront for Dublin to close down and when legs are tiring bringing in Seanie or Tom Sullivan will be a huge boost to us.

Bookies have Kerry at 4/11 which is incredible really.

Kerry to win and make a statement.

If not itll rank as Dublins greatest win over us and our worst loss.

Kerry by 20"
Dublin by 1 then

Very best of luck to Louth this weekend. Really hope you get over the line. As a Monaghan man i woulda give anything to get to see our team get to an all Ireland final in that 2013 to 2024 era. Hopefully you have different luck than us this weekend and get there. Hope to see Croke park completely red now Saturday them boys deserve the support.

Yous are there on merit not luck and i wouldn't fear mayo one bit. They have proved nothing yet under Moran. it Just shows when smaller county's gets their structure in place the sky's the limit.

Who are the Dublin '15'?
No Dublin player would make the Kerry team. They're all from Dublin, as far as I'm aware. You need to be from Kerry to make the Kerry team.

Replying To legendzxix:  "I'll respond to both posts. Group stage is not on the agenda. Reason: dead rubbers, whether people like that reason or not.

The GPA want to avoid 3 consecutive weekends. Supposedly they might be open to league finals only being dropped, meaning league rounds 3-4-5 might still be on consecutive weekends. A knockout All Ireland Round 1 of 16 qualifiers would help avoid 3 consecutive weekends in the All Ireland championship.

Provincial semi finalists could be included in the 16 qualifiers, with an exclusion exception that the 3 counties who have a bye to their semi finals cannot qualify through the provincial route, but must rely on the league route.

I think I get your push back on 3 tiers. At the same time, losing in a knockout Round 1 of 16 qualifiers could be anyone's second game. The 8 Round 1 losers entering quarter finals of a competition that would guarantee Round 1 home advantage in the following year can be a compromise.

A county like Antrim would have to work on winning an Ulster quarter final to get through as a provincial qualifier or improve league ranking.

Suggestion...
All Ireland Round 1 - 16 qualifiers: 8 higher league ranked v 8 lower league ranked, separate draw for home game.

Round 2A - provincial winners at home v Seeds 2 on league ranking. Everyone's target should be to get to 2A through provincial win or league placing.
Round 2B - Seeds 3 v Seeds 4 on league ranking, separate draw for home game.

Round 3 - 2A losers at home v 2B winners. 2A would be heavyweight clashes, which arguably should mean home game in R3.

Quarter finals - 2A winners v R3 winners.

Scheduling....
League - 1, 2, off, 3, 4, 5, off, 6, 7 and off before provincial championships.
The provincial championships could actually be played over 7 weekends, thus avoiding some preliminary round winners playing on consecutive weekends...

1. Leinster and Ulster preliminary
2. Connacht and Munster quarters
3. Leinster and Ulster quarters
4. Connacht and Munster semis
5. Leinster and Ulster semis
6. Connacht and Munster finals
7. Leinster and Ulster finals
8. All Ireland Round 1 of 16 qualifiers
9. Rounds 2A and 2B
Off
10. Round 3
Off
11. Quarter finals and onwards..."
Jez i must be slow. Ive read your post 3 times and havent a clue how your proposal works.

Replying To anotheralias:  "Not true. Most Galway people i know ARE rooting for Mayo. And those who arent, should be. At the minute Connacht is the poor relation in football. We win nothing. Over the last few years in minor , u20 , senior, club senior, intermediate. Junior, colleges, varsity, national football leagues, railway cup what have we won? Crossmolina intermediate last year is the only thing that springs to mind. We are a laughing stock and we need a boost. Yes Mayo supporters would be hard listen to if they won, but to me thats an acceptable price to pay to restore pride in the province. I recall some decades ago where Ulster was the poor relation like we are now. But then , and even still now, in Ulster, despite knocking lumps out of each other in Ulster with some savage rivalries, whoever represents Ulster generally gets the support of all Ulster. This sort of pride in the province epitomes the sort of passion that has helped bring Ulster football to the top of the pile. Oh to have some of that in Connacht."
From my experience it generally depends on what part of the county you're from. Up in the traditional football heartland, around Tuam and north Galway, there would be an intense rivalry with Mayo and I'd doubt you'd find too many wanting them to do well.
Out west in Conamara, the feeling is generally different. There's a general affinity with Mayo, particularly west Mayo which is very similar. A lot of people out west would have been supporting Mayo in their All-Ireland finals.

Replying To JimB1991:  "Huge pressure on Kerry now though, a total embarassment if they don't win an All Ireland from here. Realistically there 6-10pts better than Dublin and 12-16pts better than Mayo or Louth."
Playing mind games on a sparsely attended anonymous gaa forum that none of the players will look at is a new level of tragic.
