Mod Note Post #1 - The 2022 All Ireland Senior Football Championship.

Thought he was excellent, especially in the second half.

Kerry love producing corner backs called O'Sullivan.

Next year you have the round robin in Championship after the provincial finish. The top team make the QF and 2nd and 3rd play peliminary QF's.

Bias is always heavily in favour of the MOTM being from the winning team so unless he was spectacularly better that Clifford there was always only to be one winner

John Daly should be in the half back line. Can see him getting an all star

Think you have the Kerry scores wrong there, their starting forwards (excluding DC) scored 0-8.

Sean O'Shea 0-3, P Clifford 0-2, Geaney, O'Brien, O'Connor all 0-1.

SOS's were from frees, Geaney's was a mark.

O'connor was shown at MF on the RTÉ report but he was actually half forward so 4 points from their starting forwards plus 2 off the bench

I think David Clifford is the best there is, and the best player I have ever seen (and I'm not a youngster!!!). I do understand the praise that he gets.

But on the other hand, if someone is obviously better than him in a game, that should be recognised. Especially in an All-Ireland final. I know it is scant consolation, but it would have done Shane Walsh some good, to be recognised as the best player in that match on Sunday. Something to be proud off. I'm sure he is proud of it anyway, but it should have been officially recognised.

I was at the match, so haven't seen it back on TV yet. Must look at it and drool over some of his scores.

Not taking away from D Clifford. That was a fair score to rack up too. But the fact that Walsh's was exceptional, the MoM appointers should have taken that into account, and gone against the norm of picking the MoM award from the winning team.

No argument from me on who should have won the award. Walsh should 100% have won it but that wasn't going to wash with RTE.

For me, the Gouch was one of the best forwards I've ever seen play the game. Canavan is another that just seemed to be playing a different sport to everyone else. Clifford is a top class operator but he has a way to go to reach the heights of some of the best that have gone before him. That's just my opinion though.

The jubilee team needs to be moved to part of the HT events.

We had the primary games and Dáithí Ó'Sé talking rubbish with Martin McHugh.

The usual cringe GAA HT stuff with Dáithí trying to get the crowd to cheer after silly "do we think Sam is heading WEST??!!" "a big cheer if you think Sam is heading for the KINGDOM!!"

Awful rubbish.

McHugh not really getting into the spirit of the nonsense when asked how the teams should approach the 2nd half and said Galway should target Clifford and get him a 2nd yellow card. Jesus, Martin we were only having fun.

Lazy clichés like 'Galway always play the right way' or Galway always have heaps of class forwards

He is indeed a singular talent, and enjoys the reputation he does because he has been playing to a consistently high standard since he joined the Kerry seniors. Is he better now than the Gooch was at the same age, or will he be seen as having been even better by the end of his career? Maybe Kerry posters best placed to comment on this. I think it's far too early to proclaim Clifford already as the best ever, we don't know how his career will pan out in the years ahead and how he will cope with adversities such as injury, loss of form or confidence and playing in a poor team etc. He is still human. Remember Martin McHugh getting carried away a few years ago and anointing James O'Donoghue with the same praise on the back of a few very good displays, which seems very wide of the mark now.
