on 2) surely the answer is more than just down? What about all the 1 in a rows?

Every time you open your mouth you have this wonderful ability to continually confirm what I think.

Oops - corrected Hawkeye!

That's it. I'm done with quizzes. I did me best.

A good effort Hardy.

As for the draws only remember the ones in my own lifetime and that sinking feeling at the end. I'm going to have to lie, beg, scrape and lie again for another week to try and turn up a ticket!

Here's one. What is the biggest margin of defeat Kerry have suffered in an All IReland final?

Bensars

9 points

1972.....Offaly 1-19; Kerry 0-13


i wonder where you pulled that one from AZ ?

AZOffaly

Had to be done Bensars :D Everyone goes on about *that* goal in 1982, but we'd heaped humiliation on the kingdom before that :D It's 2-2 in All Irelands between us (I think).

Hardy

I knew the answer for semi-finals.  ;)

Someone have a guess at the draws. I can tell you that Kerry also hold the record for the most drawn finals.

magpie seanie

I see that was a replay in '72. Kerry's record is amazing. Bar one or two others they didn't lose those 18 finals by much.

Ah and we know what happened next  ;)

Seeing as 7 & 8 are wrong for the drawn finals, I am going to next one up - 9
