Fair play to fermanagh for showing a lot of heart. Pity they missed a lot of chances in the first half or they might have had a chance to put Dublin under some real pleasure

Quigley is class. That goal and aftermath shows what gaelic football has lost.

Are you saying Gaelic football has lost the art of pushing a goalkeeper over the line to score a goal?

Overweight full forwards that can't run? Not sure we miss them much.

Did you see Connolly's two points today- a thoroughbred athlete with perfect skills execution.

That's modern Gaelic Football.

The Seamus Quigley's Rebels without a Cause of this world always end their careers wondering what might have been had they swopped pizza  for proper nutrition.

Fermanagh emerge with credit and put many bigger counties to shame. Galvin can point to Dublin errors and Kerry excellence to reduce hype. Mayo or Donegal will probably learn more from their quarter final by playing strong opposition.

Galvin? PLays for Kerry I think.

Dublin on a hiding to nothing today in my view. Just glad it's over and the serious business starts now. It's put up or shut up time for Dublin now. They have to produce a performance the next day.

The game had a carnival atmosphere to it. We dismantled fermanagh's defence relatively easily but conceded a very sloppy goal. Some of our key men aren't playing well either.

Kerry are well ahead of the posse at present and won't be tested till the Final again.

I think it will be a Kerry v Mayo final myself with the usual result unfortunately.

Why the need to belittle the fella??? Strange!!

Anyway you can't judge too much from today but it doesn't look like the Dubs have learned many lessons from last year and should they come up against a Kerry or Mayo I know who my money will be on!!

Strange commentary. Sometimes it's hard to decipher when you're WUMing and when you're being serious.

Absolutely serious. The idea that he's operating anywhere near what's he capable of by being two stone overweight is for the dreamers of this website.
He plays for Fermanagh so he can pretty much do what he likes. Put him in an elite environment and he wouldn't get on the Dublin or Kerry forward lines unless he decided to become an elite athlete. Whereby his game would improve 40 percent by getting fit and he could end up being one of the best in the country.

Let's be real here, kerry are streets ahead of everyone else left. Unless mayo have something up their sleeves, they are far ahead of the dubs.  Claxton best days are behind him also.

Go back two years and the hype after Mayo hammered Donegal.

It's one match. Kildare lay down.

Go back six weeks after Donegal hammered Armagh. You are only as good as the hype after your last hammering.

Quigley is natural class, Connolly is manufactured rubbish. It's like comparing Elvis with Justin Bieber!

Since you have the inside track Indiana what was the reason for Fermanagh running the Dubs ragged in  the 2nd half?   Maybe Quigley had the phone number of the team moll written on his glove? Maybe Mulrone knew about GFs intimate tattoos?? Maybe Pete McGrath whispered something to Jim Gavin about his granny???  ;D

Ran the Dubs ragged??? You must have been watching a different game than me.
