22 points conceeded and several goal chances squandered. Lots of work needed

Game is over, wouldn't read into it

True, there's that too.

Clarke is the worst keeper of all time.

Great heart from Tipp in the second half - actual goals and ambition going forward. 3-13 is decent

Soft goals killed Tipp, obvs.

giveitholly

The amount of goal chances Mayo have conceded is unreal

statesaver

We hopefully will get a half decent competitive All Ireland Final.

It’s disrespectful to Cavan. People are quick to label Cavan a Division 3 team but in 2017 & 2019 we were in Division 1. We also made the Ulster Final last year beating Monaghan & Armagh on the way.

We also have a panel of players who were very successful when underage between 2011 and 2014, backed up by younger lads who made an All Ireland minor semi final in 2017.

And it was 23 years by the way, not 13,

23 is even worse I can't add.

Yes it may seem disrespectful but is the reality of it.

How did Cavan do in 2017 and 2019 in div 1?

They were relegated in 2017 and relegated in 2019.

There is gap between the top 7 consistent teams and the rest

Dublin
Kerry
Mayo
Donegal
Tyrone
Monaghan

This is shown over a 2/3 period in the league.

Cavan/Roscommon/Meath/Kildare might get there on and on off but they are not consistent enough to stay there for any extended period.

League over a 2/3 year period is normally a good indicator of where teams are at and it generally shows in the championship.

But the championship has way more lop sided games because teams are not playing teams of their same level.

A psis poor Tipp have got through Mayo's defence easily enough on many occasions. They just couldnt finish it and actually make a game of it.

Wouldnt have gotten through that easy if there was still a game in the balance

After that you can’t look past this Mayo team. It’s theirs to lose now.

Have to be, serious scoring power and been through real games

Dublin likely to win the final by over 20 points if we put in a defensive display like that.

I expect the Dublin promotion part of the organization are already printing the 6 in a row shirts for Christmas.

It must be the first time in a long time Dublin will be going into a game as underdogs.

That was Mayos final.
Dublin are too strong.

DVDM93

A 28 point winning margin between both semi finals.

What a load of sh1te.

It's not Dublin or Mayo's fault of course.

Hopefully they give us a good final. Two excellent teams.

Well done to Cavan & Tipp this year, ye done yerselves proud & it will be a year ye will never forget.

Ye are not the first team to be on the end of a Dublin/Mayo hammering.

Munster football is dead. Something must be done and so on and so forth.

You know the answer they give? Munster is a hurling province...

Which makes zero sense similar breakdown of standard of League teams with Leinster!

Plus no one questions why the most successful football team in the country (Kerry) play in Munster and if it is fair?

The mind boggles, but sure that is the GAA it has never made sense.

Tongue in cheek I presume.

If Mayo defence plays as today Dublin will demolish them.

The straight knockout no backdoor peddlers are pretty quiet this weekend

gormdubhgorm

Cora must have lashed the Daz on that hat. Was watching RTE NEWS NOW before. Wasn't prepared for that!

How Soon Is Now

Mayo just about got by Galway and didn't defend for basically the whole match today they better tighten things up against Dublin or won't even be close.

They looked good going forward but again Tipp allowed that. Sure we taught Meath had goals in them as well look how that went once they played a real team.

I hope it's a good final but if Mayo play like that on the day Dublin will win comfortably without a game all season.

Hope its not as foggy for the All Ireland finals

5pm throw in for the football, same kind of weather as today could cause havoc

Congrats Ariel, ye have it in the bag. If ye beat us by less than 20 I'll take it.

Haha. You're good craic Ariel, fair play. I'd have Dublin slight favs, they won by 15, mayo could only manage to win by 12 and both played division 3 sides.

Actually I'll set the line at that, -3 and say Dubs by 4.
