Not the teams fault but very uninspiring. A bad end to a pretty poor year for the GAA.

Roll on 2016

I cant understand how people are so down on this final. At least theres positivity, not like last year. Mistakes unavoidable in conditions like that with people operating at sprinting speed.

just an observation, but he didn't seem to indicate the free was being moved forward as I saw it .........I could be in error though

He did, they should of brought Cluxton up for it. Kerry lucky to be only 4 points behind so far. The Mayo games have been very good for Dublin.

Can't understand why Cluxton wasn't brought up for it.It was well within his range.

So let's see who Kerry bring in at half time

Par for the course football analysis these days. Everything is sh1t. Even when it's not.

McMenamen would wreak havoc here

True, and possibly the same applies for Darren O'Sullivan

Hitchens · 20-09-2015 4:23pm

Kerry seem to have stopped trying to frustrate Cluxton's short kickouts

Because it's terrible to watch. Already acknowledged the conditions are terrible and not the teams fault. If this is your idea of entertainment then fair enough, but it's not mine.

The most disappointing aspect of it all was that it could have been a brilliant game. ****ing rain.

DellyBelly · 20-09-2015 4:26pm

I would bring on Darren O Sullivan

Pitch Makeup At ground level the drainage system installed is connected to huge suction fans which allow us to blow air through the pitch and suck water out. These pipes are covered with a 300 mm layer of permeable pebble stone which has a drainage rate of about 900 mm per hour. Over this a carefully selected Wexford sand forms the lower rootzone into which the undersoil heating system is installed. The undersoil heating system works on a series of hot water pipes transferring heat to the sand rootzone. The sand continues to a depth of 260 mm with a specialist fibre stabilising agent tilled into the sand to keep the surface stable. On top of this is a 40 mm specialist sod which is a 100% natural sandy loam soil. The sward (upper layer of soil) is covered in 100% perennial ryegrass. During the returfing operation in July 2009, 1500 roles of turf were installed on the pitch in just 3 days with games played immediately afterwards. The pitch also has a fully automatic irrigation system which allows water application for grass growth and preparation for play.

Its also like an ice rink with the slightest bit of rain.

Manys an All-Ireland final win have been inspired by a half time speech.
Let's see if anything happens here

Err, Martin he dropped the ball

20-09-2015 4:28pm

Kerry are getting some very easy frees....

Dont see Dublin not turning up at all like we did.

In fairness, ye weren't allowed turn up, but that's OT.

LuckyGent88 · 20-09-2015 4:29pm

Great point there

ShamoBuc · 20-09-2015 4:29pm

Good start by Kerry, just what they needed, 2 fast points

Tom Joad · 20-09-2015 4:29pm

Game on now.

Mr.Crinklewood · 20-09-2015 4:29pm

Cluxton playing rugby.

Pink Fairy · 20-09-2015 4:30pm

Foul against Buckley was softer than anything

ShamoBuc · 20-09-2015 4:31pm

Good direct running by Connolly

kingshankly · 20-09-2015 4:31pm

Peter Crowley is seriously slow

ShamoBuc · 20-09-2015 4:33pm

Kerrys kickouts not much better than cluxton

20-09-2015 4:33pm

Connolly finally starting to play.

dirkmeister · 20-09-2015 4:34pm

Is there a limit for taking a free?

Cluxton took 58 seconds there.

Howjoe1 · 20-09-2015 4:34pm

bad miss

20-09-2015 4:37pm

Dublin are throwing away alot of good chances at the moment.. hit the post twice now. Kerry getting very very lucky.

LuckyGent88 · 20-09-2015 4:37pm

Kerry all over the shop

Hon the Dubs · 20-09-2015 4:37pm

Johnny cooper having a great game today

Howjoe1 · 20-09-2015 4:38pm

might rue these misses the Dubs

nice_guy80 · 20-09-2015 4:38pm

unlucky

Say Your Number · 20-09-2015 4:38pm

Dublin could rue these goal chances.......

Tom Joad · 20-09-2015 4:38pm

Dublin should keep taking their points rather than try to kill the game with a goal.

ShamoBuc · 20-09-2015 4:38pm

Dublin should have wrapped it up with a few goals in the last 5 mins

STB. · 20-09-2015 4:38pm

Hope its not going to one of those days..... The goals just wont go in!

nice_guy80 · 20-09-2015 4:39pm

greedy

RoscommonTom · 20-09-2015 4:39pm

brutal from osulivan

iDave · 20-09-2015 4:39pm

Are Kerry trying to lose. Keep giving possession away so easily

SeaFields · 20-09-2015 4:40pm

What is this obsession by the commentators with Donaghy?! With the way Kerry are playing he wouldn't see the ball up front so he wouldn't solve any problems.

TheCitizen · 20-09-2015 4:40pm

A goal for Dublin will finish Kerry

kupus · 20-09-2015 4:40pm

For all the goal chances dub are getting, they're still only two scores ahead. It's not over yet.

LuckyGent88 · 20-09-2015 4:40pm

Much better from Kerry there without getting the score.

Injuryprone · 20-09-2015 4:40pm

Kerry look like their neighbours cork today

STB. · 20-09-2015 4:41pm

Dubs need not get dragged into scraps...

He changes kerrys mindset about how theyre to play. Cant be any worse than they are now.

nice_guy80 · 20-09-2015 4:44pm

OMG

a kerryman penalised for overycarrying!!

Strumms · 20-09-2015 4:44pm

Exactly... But I think Kerry will try and do that, get a bit more cynical. Dubs have been the much better team but it's a 2 point game. I'm worried about those missed goal chances.

20-09-2015 4:44pm

Dublin throwing this away, they should be several points up at the moment.

kingshankly · 20-09-2015 4:44pm

Terrible from Moran just lay it of
