Delighted for Cavan Donegal where ****e.

Jesus this championship has been crazy!

The worst thing for those of us who want to get rid of the provincials. But 2 cracking results today.

I think knock out has to be brought back though without question.

Get rid of Leinster. Ulster is fine as it is.

Would a back door have changed today's winners ?

Well done. Well done

Dublin will hammer Cavan.

What has that got to do with todays game?:rolleyes:
Great win for cavan.

After today, it wouldn't surprise me if Mayo finally won the All Ireland. I suspect Dublin will destroy who they meet but maybe just maybe....

Hard to believe Cavan have won 39 Ulsters, that's a serious record for a small county

This year has been a fantastic throwback with the sudden death championship, has definitely put an extra bit of spark into underdog teams, meanwhile Kerry and now Cork and Donegal were spooked by the thought of being knocked out and the occasion seemed to get the better of them.

The Super 8s is a stupid money grabbing farce and contributes nothing extra only to create dead rubber fixtures in August which should never be the case.

Donegal were 1/14 on to win when I got Cavan
at 17/2 five mins into the game

:pac: Canning's utterance was still wrong on so many levels

Congrats on your "windfall" - never in doubt :P

I think so, yes. As players know they have another day to go. But with knock out teams have to go for it. Same reason cork beat Kerry, they went for it at the end instead of just sitting in and maybe Kerry felt the pressure of knock out football.

I've been saying it for weeks at this stage. Scrap the back door and super 8s, get knock out back. Wishful thinking I'd say unfortunately

They will do well to beat Tipp.
Such a shame that the full panel of players are unable to attend the games. Pure nonsense.

Mantis Toboggan

Both Cork and Donegal under estimated their opposition.

Tipperary will seriously fancy a cut off Mayo and they'll have absolutely nothing to lose. Some serious talent on that team as well. There wasn't much in it in 2018 or 2016, late goals for Mayo killed the tie on both occasions.

Unfortunately a Dublin Tipperary final were it to happen would be a complete non event.

Id say Dublin are p00ssing themselves watching this. Dongeal V Dublin will be the AI winner.

Kerry must be behind the couch watching Cork.

I said “ watch this space” Yop.

Cavan didn’t lie down. There’s something about those young lads.

I dunno might open a few eyes and cause a restructure of things.

Chalk McHugh

Never seen so many tears in interviews as i did today..Colin O Riordan, Micky Graham and Cavan goalkeeper all showing incredible emotion. It's just been a remarkable day. A day never to forget.

castletownman

Credit to Mickey Graham too. Has made a habit of defying the odds over the last few years. Unlikely Leinster title with Mullinaghta and now upsetting the apple-cart today.

Shrewd manager.

If you had predicted the 4 provincial winners last year, the odds must have been 100/1 if not 200/1.

Yeah I think it could well have, because you know in the back of your mind you don’t really need to win.

gormdubhgorm

I will say it once for the craic Cavan v Tipp final?

Everyone will be glued to Mayo v Tipp now.

I know it wasn't going to be Mayo, Cavan or Tipp.

1948 AI final repeat again.

DVDM93

Jesus Galligan really was through the wars wasn't he!?

Chalk McHugh

To hell with Nphet, the government should end the Lockdown in Tipp and Cavan with immediate effect

sligeach

Jaysus, this Cavan Man of the Match has been through the wars.

tayto lover

Young Galligan is bruised and battered but still smiling. Great young lad.
