Can we split Kerry in two please?  Its not fair, they have 38 titles surely there is some financial irregularities going on there?
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

That is 3 different winners in 3 years i hope another different team wins it next year  its no good having the sam macgure cup just recycle between  2 or 3 teams it very to hard to see beyond kerry again next year tho.

90% of the last 20 All-Irelands have went to Dublin, Kerry & Tyrone

When you consider the huge funding imbalance and the tradition of Dublin & Kerry it is some achievement for Tyrone to have picked up 4 All Ireland's in the last 20 years when these two have been so dominant.

Previous 20 years  had 9 different winners. Kerry/Dub % was far lower. 
I think it's linked to the economic system.

Kerry 5
Cork 2
Meath 4
Dublin 2
Armagh 1
Galway 2
Donegal 1
Derry 1
Down 2

Football is in a good place, there's 7 or 8 teams who'll have realistic ambitions of winning it in the next 2 years.

Ambitions yes however how many can go on and match those ambitions? Can your own Galway get that extra 10% needed to beat Kerry,Dublin in a knock out game?  Not sure how much further Derry,Armagh can improve on this year.  Donegal have the potential and might be there or thereabouts by appointing a better manager than Bonnar. The best was probably seen of Mayo 2012 to 2017.

how many of those 38 titles happened when they only needed to win 4 games

how many did they win this year ? 5 ?
Gaa is gone from having 3/4 teams  in with a chance to maybe 6/7 but the others have gone way back and the gulf in standard is absolutely huge

6 games was the absolute most a team needed to win to get Sam in those days so I'd say they'd have won 38 anyway.
Davy's given us a dream to cling to
We're going to bring home the SAM

Shane Walsh transferring to Kilmacud Crokes.
A bit odd considering he won't be eligible to play in this years Dublin club championship as it due to start shortly. Kilkerrin fighting to keep him not happy with actions of Kilmacud.

Presumably works and lives in Dublin?

Crokes membership is full of wealthy culchies.

I believe he going to college which would call in the integrity into transfer regarding his residency.
