dub on the back foot but comfortable there while mayo struggle to turn it into points, one in it to the eventual winners

Lots of wides. Dublin taking time getting into it!

Bloody hell @ crossbar!

thought that hennelly stopped it

dublin much more penetrating when they get it in attack, but holding it in reserve yet

another great save hennelly, mayo look paperthin at the back

Hennelly justifying petrol money. Dublin seem to be pushing now.

A lot of sloppy play from both teams

Old Boy In Network (Michael B), Sunday, 22 September 2013 15:09 (eleven years ago) link

(xpost) Perhaps. It's a tough one to call. Will look like Cork supporters have swamped stadium by end with amount of red in crowd from sunburn.

Dublin out of jail in an incredible way to be only a point down. Awful mistake by the Mayo keeper.

Evil Juice Box Man (LocalGarda), Sunday, 22 September 2013 15:21 (eleven years ago) link

Very poor game so far, which is a shame.

Evil Juice Box Man (LocalGarda), Sunday, 22 September 2013 15:22 (eleven years ago) link

And shit by cluxton too. Game on.

Evil Juice Box Man (LocalGarda), Sunday, 22 September 2013 15:40 (eleven years ago) link

Just as Dublin were getting back into it

Old Boy In Network (Michael B), Sunday, 22 September 2013 15:42 (eleven years ago) link

Just as

MDMA rushing thru

Dublin know how to win

a fox barks, btw. just barks. (darraghmac), Sunday, 22 September 2013 15:44 (eleven years ago) link

Ref has been woeful all day, erratic on both sides.

Evil Juice Box Man (LocalGarda), Sunday, 22 September 2013 15:48 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah agreed, not biased but shit

He doesn't know what a foul is.

Evil Juice Box Man (LocalGarda), Sunday, 22 September 2013 15:57 (eleven years ago) link

Mayo determined to cause nervous breakdowns...

Ref not great

hyggeligt, Sunday, 22 September 2013 15:58 (eleven years ago) link

There we are

Cant say ye didnt deserve it lads, to win a final you just need to win it

Four players managed to lose ball in front of Dublin goal ffs

hyggeligt, Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:00 (eleven years ago) link

And rte player crashed. Typical

MAYO!

NOT REALLY

a fox barks, btw. just barks. (darraghmac), Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:03 (eleven years ago) link

what were they doing at the end there?

Number None, Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:03 (eleven years ago) link

Very disappointing considering Mayo had waited since 1951 and started so well.

hyggeligt, Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:05 (eleven years ago) link

What was up with that free? Anyone?

Evil Juice Box Man (LocalGarda), Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:05 (eleven years ago) link

Both teams blew it repeatedly

Evil Juice Box Man (LocalGarda), Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:06 (eleven years ago) link

Mayo were so crap in the 2nd half. Maybe the freetaker thought there was more time on the clock.

Old Boy In Network (Michael B), Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:07 (eleven years ago) link

By a point FFS! So many wides.

That final free was unreal. What was he thinking?

hyggeligt, Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:08 (eleven years ago) link

Mayo with hand pass fannydangle when horsing it into the full forward line was what was needed

Old Boy In Network (Michael B), Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:12 (eleven years ago) link

Cluxton dreading speech more than match. Funny he didn't raise cup. To each their own.

hyggeligt, Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:16 (eleven years ago) link

Mayo with hand pass fannydangle when horsing it into the full forward line was what was needed

And vice versa as regards Dublin, IMO.

Evil Juice Box Man (LocalGarda), Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:25 (eleven years ago) link

Everyone OTT with fannydangling.

hyggeligt, Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:27 (eleven years ago) link

Disappointing that mayo didnt play their game is really it. No football on display at all, and ugly ugly wides

a fox barks, btw. just barks. (darraghmac), Sunday, 22 September 2013 16:45 (eleven years ago) link

Both sides were poor and Dublin kinda won by dint of that we have a right to be here sport man united thing.

Evil Juice Box Man (LocalGarda), Sunday, 22 September 2013 17:01 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah exactly that

a fox barks, btw. just barks. (darraghmac), Sunday, 22 September 2013 17:07 (eleven years ago) link

I had a feeling it might be that way, felt very good being there today after getting the monkey off our back in 2011. In some ways I'd say Mayo didn't have a strategy. Dublin have won all their big games this year without obliterating anyone, all felt very subtly in control, nobody has ever said they played perfectly.

It is a big buzz tho, I was at tons of games in the 90s but I worked in a car park near Croker from 97 to the time I left for London.

Saw the 95 final in person and loads of losses, that team should have won way more. Nice to see another win after 2011.

Evil Juice Box Man (LocalGarda), Sunday, 22 September 2013 17:28 (eleven years ago) link

Mayo the best team by some way all year, but otm about dub having a strategy to win and we not. Something to work on next year imo, this team not down nor out.

bleedin dubs buy sam maguire, september 2013 (darraghmac), Sunday, 22 September 2013 17:57 (eleven years ago) link

Gavin is the manager we've never had. Never seen such plotted control in GAA with Dublin. Still think this Dublin team are going to win more titles now, not every year or whatever.

Evil Juice Box Man (LocalGarda), Sunday, 22 September 2013 18:05 (eleven years ago) link

Does it make sense that Mayo seemed to lack a finisher? I mean they had forwards to burn at times but not a person at either end in defence (apart from Hennelly who I wasn't aware of but wow @ the majority of his game tiday) or up front who just existed to shut things down.

hyggeligt, Sunday, 22 September 2013 18:33 (eleven years ago) link

Feature of the holistic approach i think, not a lot of use for that type of specialist. Tho o'connor has been that guy all summer until his collarbone gave and he clearly wasnt in shape today

bleedin dubs buy sam maguire, september 2013 (darraghmac), Sunday, 22 September 2013 18:52 (eleven years ago) link

Both half back lines killed each other which only makes weird sense cos both were shit in earlier games.

The interest is in how we manage to fuck this

Ans is ofc a soft goal

fix up luke shawp (darraghmac), Saturday, 14 August 2021 19:15 (three years ago) link

Six minutes to midnight

Still only the inevitable goal in it

Will it be a keeper error, an OG, will it be from a particularly unnecessary turnover?

Time will tell

Kerry seemed to be very dependent on Clifford, thought theyd be a lot better.
