    Will be interesting. I think Jimmy has a chance. A small one but if the Dubs are complacent at all then they could be caught. Still think the Dubs will do it though

    McQuillan refereeing, I don't think it will have any bearing on the result but like Reilly yesterday he shouldn't be getting games at this level.

    Thats worth at least 5 or 6 points to Dublin so, I am actually dumbfounded that the GAA has chosen to allow him referee another game involving Dublin after what he did in 2011 and 2013 effectively gifting Dublin two all-Ireland titles on a plate. He lives and works in Dublin and he is clearly biased in favour of Dublin. A disgrace and I just hope Donegal have enough to defeat this 16 man Dublin team from the start.

    If he is refereeing the All-Ireland final and Dublin qualify today to play Kerry then I won't even go because he is unfit to referee a Dublin match and him refereeing a Dublin game is just downright cheating by the GAA.

    I am predicting this Dublin biased referee to cost Donegal the game.

    Good stuff...pass the ticket on to a fan who actually has some understanding of the game.

    God knows how final tickets get into the hands of your likes in the first place

    Very early yellow for Mccarthy


  • Registered Users Posts: 364 ✭✭aveytare


    Great shooting,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,551 ✭✭✭SeaFields


    Blanket defence aint worth sh!t if they can score from outside the 45


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 2,166 Mod ✭✭✭✭L1m1tless


    Prediction: Dublin by 15 points

    Dublin have brought their shooting boots


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 33,336 CMod ✭✭✭✭ShamoBuc


    IfDonegal allow Dublin to continue to shoot from distance under no pressure, they will be in for a long afternoon.

    This is a fast paced game. How long can they all keep it up?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,351 ✭✭✭✭Harry Angstrom


    Dublin skill against Donegal brute force. Good to see skill winning out so far.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 126 ✭✭Moat_Cailin


    Game over


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,115 ✭✭✭Boom__Boom


    completed unsurprised Donegal started something - blatant attempt to disrupt Dublin's tempo is blatant


  • Registered Users Posts: 369 ✭✭microsim


    Home advantage paying off again for the Dubs

    Dublin have skill and brute force, that's the scary thing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 51 ✭✭VanDinkle


    Ah the Donegal tactics evident fairly quickly............


  • Registered Users Posts: 487 ✭✭Strong Life in Dublin

    Kerry will need two Cormac Reilly's on their team to beat this Dublin team...:pac: I'm sure spillane will do what he can :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 906 ✭✭✭Ompala


    Should have buried that one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,551 ✭✭✭SeaFields


    Serious goal opportunity for donegal there had that pass not gone astray


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,078 ✭✭✭Muff Richardson


    Donegal game plan in shreds or non existent


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 11,852 Mod ✭✭✭✭Say Your Number


    Donegal can't afford to miss chances like that, Dublin punish them down the other end.

    Jim McGuinness is being made to look a wee bit foolish here.


  • Registered Users Posts: 51 ✭✭VanDinkle


    Looks like Donegal can sit in their own box all day, and it wont make any odds.....

    They will have to come out and play now.


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 11,852 Mod ✭✭✭✭Say Your Number


    What was Kavanagh at


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,115 ✭✭✭Boom__Boom


    At this stage it looks like Dublin need to only get a few more points to get a total that there is no way Donegal will be able to match, bar getting a couple of goals.

    Yeah but they can't play, so that could be an issue


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,551 ✭✭✭SeaFields


    the indecision by donegal on the attack is something else.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    I'm supporting Donegal here but ffs, have they all forgotten what to do with the ball when it's in their end?


  • Registered Users Posts: 120 ✭✭alphasully


    game over already


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 11,852 Mod ✭✭✭✭Say Your Number


    Dublin are just clinical, Donegal can't be as wasteful as they are being now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,115 ✭✭✭Boom__Boom


    how many seconds from the Donegal attempt there to the Dublin score?

    While I was looking for a close game an a Donegal win I am not suprise with how the game is going. I do think Dublin more than Donegal would give Kerry a better game

    Yeah. When you have the ball and are closed down pass it to somebody with even less room. Silly football.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,115 ✭✭✭Boom__Boom


    2nd very decent goal chance for Dublin

    poor by Connollty there


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 11,852 Mod ✭✭✭✭Say Your Number


    Dublin have just passed the score they got in the 2011 game in 26 minutes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,351 ✭✭✭✭Harry Angstrom


    Give Sam to the Dubs at half-time and be done with it. No need for the Kerrymen to make the journey in a few week's time.

    Nice point by Connolly.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,722 ✭✭✭nice_guy80


    Cluxton wouldn't get the ball back as quick in any other ground


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 11,852 Mod ✭✭✭✭Say Your Number


    Two nice scores in a row, they are staying within striking distance so far.


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 11,852 Mod ✭✭✭✭Say Your Number


    Ah Murphy what are you doing?


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,084 ✭✭✭✭martingriff

    A bit premature there now. The Dubs were this clinical last year up to the final and only won that by a point. Kerry play a very different style then Donegal.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,722 ✭✭✭nice_guy80


    Donegal putting it up to them. O'Gara is poor


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,134 ✭✭✭Tom Joad


    This is turning into a nice open game of football :eek::eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,551 ✭✭✭SeaFields


    Jaysus, donegal motoring a bit now


  • Registered Users Posts: 364 ✭✭aveytare


    Wasn't expecting this 10 minutes ago.


  • Registered Users Posts: 541 ✭✭✭Hibbeler


    Good on donegal, really putting it up to the Dubs all to play for now
