Replying To imformed:  "Hard to disagree with you that Roscommon bottled it. Can't understand why we didnt go out to best Mayo. Poor management decision."
You don't sound very imformed.

You should be posting credit to your management for keeping Roscommon up against the odds in Division one with a game to spare instead of that needless criticism now.

Don't be embarrassing yourself

Replying To Tadhg2020:  "The Dublin game?"
Bottled is a soccer term used by idiots.

Every team had off games in Division 1 this year and even Kerry yesterday showed that.

Replying To Tadhg2020:  "You can insult me all you want. It doesnt change the fact that Roscommon had a great chance to reach a division 1 final and lost badly at home to a team was relegated in the first game their fans expected them to win of the campaign. Im not sure what you would call it when that happens. Do you?"
Insult, are you that fragile? Only fact is where that word is use and by who.

You are a wum and try another thread to play that nonsense.

You would swear winning a league was a burden. Bain sult as!

Kerry not fully tuned up but great teams - Dublin, Limerick, Cats NEVER shipped a hiding like that in their pomp.

Worrying signs ???

Replying To Gaels1989:  "Looking at this Donegal game we aren't far away, considering we only lost by 3 to the same team last week. Once we get our best 15 on the pitch we can really give this championship a good rattle"
Ah here went up there today for the two games. That Donegal side who played there today would put 30 pts on us . They were in peak performance mode today. Not going to compare us to kerry and Donegal of this world but watching meath cork was more depressing. That was a great closely fought game both sides good forwards esp meath two good midfields and great pace in both sides. The depressing thing was a year ago we easily beat both of them playing different pace to them granted was league football but still. Now both have greatly improved from last yrs league but they'd each both 10-15 pts at least on this monaghan side given our rate of decline since last year.

I was cheering for ye would ya believe it ! Fair play. Still think kerry will be hard to beat come summer . But it gives the rest of us some hope that they wont be another Dubs 6 in a row team .

As others have said, please list the red cards with solid examples Murphy should have had. He's not always the best of tacklers and can be late.

And he is often given deserved yellows for that

But today is the first time I would say he deserved a red.

Thanks for adding your congratulations by the way... Not

A few ghosts banished yesterday for both players and supporters. Really excellent performance against a flat Kerry side who actually started well and looked to come out at the start of the second half with the bit between their teeth but the quick fire goals put paid to that. Big performances all over the field, Langan was imperious. Jason again fantastic like having a new player and in the form of his life. Conor O'Donnell gave Foley a torrid time and gave Murphy more freedom. Brilliant performances from McColgan who didn't give Clifford an inch plus Max Campbell who was fantastic. Mulreaney had another very good day and of course Michael Murphy looked incredible put goes without saying should've seen red. I didn't see the incident clearly either even though the media are claiming it was just Jim and Gough who missed it. Given the players who were out hard to read too much into the game but what it does do is heal any psychological effects for the players after last July. If we meet later in the year they will go out with full belief which might not have been the case a couple of months ago. Another exciting summer ahead. Congrats to all the squad and management especially Murphy and Jim who have the full set bar under 21 and minor. Prepare for an absolute blockbuster if these two sides meet later in the summer with it all on the line. Looking forward now to Wednesday and the under twenties who have built nicely after getting out of jail against Fermanagh though my jaw hit the floor when I seen the score Derry put up against the same opposition at the weekend.

Replying To yew_tree:  "Because this is the NFL 2026 thread and we are discussing today's final. Whataboutery from you."
I thought for a while today in that final it was green and red jerseys we were playing Yew Tree lol! just joking now, relax.
You never expect Kerry to collapse in a final but I think they are playing a bit of rope a dope as well so we won't be carried away by a league final result.
Michael could easily have seen red for that tackle, he isn't a dirty player as we all know but Michael has fierce strength and if his timing is anyway off your gonna feel it,
I remember him buckling Diarmuid Connolly years ago with a missed timed tackle and Diarmuid was a strong boy himself.
As players get older the timing can be that bit off anyone who has played football at any level knows that, glad the player wasn't hurt but he may have a sore jaw chewing his cornflakes in the morning!

I replied to the wrong person.

But anyway, Murphy hasn't always been at that.

"The wide open spaces" are always talked about as being a reason one team will beat an inferior one. As if the inferior team would beat them in a tight pitch.
Its complete horse manure. The best team will win on any pitch, you are not talking about the width of a soccer pitch vs a GAA pitch.
