God this referee should have his whistle stripped. Shocking decision and seriously favouring Meath

I thought he favoured Donegal - gave Meath 2 yellows (sin bins) and gave Donegal a soft enough penalty.

Some unusual decisions alright.

Ah, Ladies football needs an complete overhaul with the rules. Most of these rules were put in place when girls playing the game were less fit and less skillful.

That said there were a few charging decisions near the end where the defender stood their ground and the attacker ran into them, they'd unfortunately never be given in the mans game!

befair

Yeh, here it goes again, blame the ref.
His decisions on charging were consistent throughout the game, for both teams.
Both teams set up so defensively, it was a poor game in contrast to first semi-final. I'm sure it's an effective tactic, even more so than in the mens game, as few women can kick long distance points, but it makes for a dull spectacle.

Was a heartbreaking loss again for Donegal, that period after half time was a real killer and Meath were clinical where we were not. In the 2nd half that goal chance was really huge in the context of the game. Emma Duggan was brilliant for Meath.

I'd say that could be the end of the road for some of those Donegal players unfortunately, they've been great players.

Bizarre decision by Wex to kick a point from a free when 3 points down and the clock at 30 seconds and counting down

They'd about 2 minutes with the goal to be three behind they won next couple of kick outs and didn't pump the ball into the box... even with that free I think they only had 3 in the rectangle..
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Great start for Kerry 1-2 to no score. Not sure if the number 15 for going for goal or it was a point effort that dropped short. The defending champions has responded with a quick 1-1.

Meath are very tough, Des . They never give up. It must be the oestrogen.

Meath were very impressive. Inspiration for O'Rourke.

Excellent display by Meath. Bar the first few minutes they snuffed out Kerry's  attacks very  impressively .  Niamh O Sullivan deservedly POTY.  She was  everywhere!

Highlights of it amywhere, I'm on holiday at the minute.
It won't be the next manager but the one after that Meath will become competitive again - MO'D 2016
