I have a photo of me in the Sam Maguire when Henry Downey and Eamonn Coleman brought it to primary school, something that don't happen again in Derry unless it is a B championship cup.

What levels of creaming will RTE do if the Dubs win?

Ah would you stop. We’ve just seen 5 in a row.

Some of the bitterness like above is just ridiculous.

Well done Dublin, impressive stuff.
We'll be seeing a lot more from that young Kerry team.

Nothing is guaranteed in sport. Just look at Mayos good team from 2012-2017

Hard to pick out a definite man of the match. Murchan perhaps? Or Con? Thought Howard went about it in his usual manner as well.

Kilkenny without a doubt

I’m as happy as Larry. You were just an awful poster the last 2 games and only posted for the finals. Stick to hating or average united team and your excellent coverage of French football. I’ll do the same with the German football.

Had a great day out at the koln Derby.

Hope the folks in Germany were more welcoming to you than you are to folks who only post for the finals. :pac:

I'll decide where I stick to posting, thanks. 5-in-a-row. You love to see it.

175 seconds passing the ball around the Kerry Bus before knocking over for a point.



That's patience.

Silly error on 2nd half throw in gifted it to Dublin. Kerry made work for themselves. Showed inexperience.

You could argue Mayo gifted them a final or two also.

Anyway, well done to the winners

Definitely. 3 of the 5 years the finals could've gone either way. Mayo cocked up 2 of them and Kerry had the opportunities this time.there were moments in each of those 5 games that could've and possibly should've sent Sam elsewhere but thems the breaks

2015 was a dire affair with ODonoghue seemingly carrying the weight of Kerry with him.

2018 Tyrone didn't even try to play them and Dublin easily outdid them.

Congrats Dublin history makers! fully deserved their 6 point margin of victory. It took the 2nd half of the 2nd game for the gap between the sides to be seen but I think with 15 men for the 2nd half in the drawn game Dublin probably would have won pulling up as they did tonight.

Kerry much improved on last year's quarter final exit but it was far to early in their transition/rebuilding to expect them to topple that Dublin team. What will disaspoint them mostly in that replay will be the poor descision making of number of their experienced players through out the game.

Apologies just need to calm down. ill admit there is some fine players in that team.

Most of the dublin fans i met after finals have been more the gracious to us beaten mayo fans over the years so ill say enjoy the celebrations and bow out of here.

Had the same feeling too about the drawn game. Dublin had it well under control before the sending off and would have finished it off the first day if not for the red card, imo.

They lost possession on it and got a lucky bounce too. A bounce the other way and they would've just been playing down the clock.

Kerry didn't trust their football ability enough at times and hit it long, or delayed on great point chances.

Some young enough and talented enough players there for them to win it though, just not today

Kilkenny was head and shoulders the best player though.

So what's your plan, force Dublin players to take jobs outside of the capital or for Dublin to hold training outside the city??

The GAA can't be held to account for the reality of Dublin being the biggest city in the country in terms of economy

Should just remove the 4-step rule from the rulebook.
Just not applied anymore.
Cost Kerry dearly today...

As did their wide count

Just 200 million, maybe not.

home advantage for all the big games and finals.
Increase players pool by 7 times
Have all players working/living within county.

Listen, we could name a million things teams have done wrong against Dublin, and being from Mayo, I could offer you a list, but at the end of the day, you get nothing easy off that Dublin team. If you're going to beat them, you're going to have to battle. Few teams have the stomach for a battle against them.
Kerry made a balls of some of their shooting today, but Dublin also made it tough for them. They packed the defence, forced them to recycle the ball and take pot shots, and then they slowed the game down and engaged in a bit of gamesmanship to see it out. Dublin showed experience and guile to win the day.

Was nice to see how much it meant to them at the end for a team that is often accused of leaving people cold. Could be the last we see of a few of those players in a Dublin jersey.

STB.

Out before the madness.



UP THE DUBS !

If Dublin lost this big montage on RTE would have gone to waste.

Well done Kerry made a game of it again and they will be a force in the next few years, some serious footballers with natural class.
Hate to say but we’ll done Dublin they deserve it but hopefully it’s there last... the difference is they know how to control a game / win a game.
Connelly should never be back in that panel and contributed nothing today, I think the pass was overrated and intended for the player running toward it and not Kilkenny I think who it was that ran onto it.

Can't bate a bitta Luke.

No but there is no need to give them extra funding over others since you have the advantage already.

Absolutely the distribution of funding needs to be looked at but that won't really help too much with the issue of players having to travel long distances for training.

Does winning the most AIs mean you're the best team in history? I suppose it does, as a historical FACT. That's Kerry. But this fact will be argued I suppose - generally in the manner wins are achieved, and it's all about successive wins that's more eye-catching, which is now Dublin. Winning 5 in a row is remarkable. Dublin successes really only started in earnest in the 10s. Dublin folk think the football history books only started then. This is not true

Think you might be mistaking team for county there.

You should try travel from the North side of the city to the south side and vice versa in rush out traffic - it's nearly quicker walking then getting the bus or taxi with the traffic.

Congratulations to Dublin. Not easy to watch as a Meath man , but fair is fair. I never thought I would never see a team win 3 in a row.I thought 4 in a row was impossible. And 5 in a row was something mythical that was unachievable. So to see a team win 5 in a row Dublin have achieved true greatness. This Dublin team have achieved something we will never see again and have now joined the truly great teams in Irish sport along with Irish Italia 90 soccer team and grand Slam winning rugby teams. Hell of an achievement.

The Anti Dublin brigade on here think it started in the early 10s as well, the fact the likes of Cluxton for instance had 10 years of championship losses before winning An All Ireland - he could have packed it in and said it wasn't worth the time and commitment - but he didn't - he kept on turning up, and now is reaping the rewards.

When these guys were all growing up and playing for their clubs - where they getting all this money that folk on here are talking about?

Mayo should have won at least 1 All Ireland in last 5 years, as should Kerry 2 weeks ago. It's not Dublin's fault they didn't.

One other point about all this money - It's not helping the Dublin Hurlers much is it? why is that?

After All my giving out I suppose I better say
The dubs ARENT bet.
Huge congratulations to Dublin.they kicked on and finished strong.
Kerry will be dissapointed with all the wides in both games but that’s sport.
I wish the dubs and all the supporters safe celebrations.enjoy

Congrats to Dublin. Incredible achievement in the modern era, in any era. They are without doubt the best team of all time. Best team came out on top today. Kerry will have glory days too the way they are going.

Dyr

Just watching this back and it's shocking just how one sided Lane was. Not that Kerry were dirty or cynical. He made it very clear that holding and arm dragging was fine for one team.

Sad to say you'll never see days like that again. Poor Louth were robbed of their final chance at a Leinster medal.

The greatest team ever. The heart and determination and togetherness unmatched, an unbelievable collection of coaches and players. So many of them deserve to glory in their impending retirement undefeated. Champions like no other
