Gave Joe McQuillan MOTM in first half. They haven't a clue!!!!! In fairness the few clips I've seen I actually like their commentary style. Much better than Canning et al.

Most of Jimmys iconic commentary's are non GAA related but given where he was brought up I'd say he came from a GAA background I wonder how come he did so little GAA commentary. Also as a child I remember the Jimmy Magee All Stars another GAA institution

He commentated on one for UTV. Was always his dream to do one and couldn't at RTE.

Colm and Joe talking some proper sense here. Finally.

Whelan looking nervous as fĂșck.
Whelan made fair points also. They've always had a much greater population. Nobody gave a shite about it when Kerry were coasting to Sam etc. Now, the Dubs put the work in to better themselves, it's unfair - they need split.

Don't forget the money issue.

How have the Sunday game not mentioned the pages eye gouging incident before half time. Surely a straight red.

No mention of GPS unit being thrown at Rock at end.

TOTY was a Dublin Mayo select more or less. And Brolly is twisted.

The banquet at CityWest must be like a wake this year..
I'd love the camera to go there and all the Mayo players blocked on the dance floor playing air guitar and their ties around their heads.

Jim Gavin and Cluxton like lads at a wake.

Can anyone recommend a good pair of runners at a resonable price that Lifestyle stock? I have a voucher for there.

Lads whinging about the ref are clutching at straws. He let Mayo away with plenty.
No way. Whatever about the red cards and soft scorable frees Dublin got in the first half, failure to give a blatant stone wall penalty with 10 minutes left  which could have put Mayo clear is not cluthing at straws.

Contact started well before they entered the box. I know Dessie and Ger are easily fooled but you'd think anyone watching at home could use their eyes to see that.

Doesn't matter where contact started.

If Dublin Joe was working for Dublin AOS would have been black carded 5 seconds into the 2nd half

Rock took minimum 9 steps for one of his points. Penalty call too. Didn't seem to have the bottle to make big calls.

Rock was getting the advantage for being pulled back which is why he got extra steps.
Such nonsense. The advantage rule doesn't give you free reign to take as many steps as you like

Many times you get extra steps in that circumstance but he would have had a 13m free so it would have made no difference

Still doesn't excuse another wrong call.

Barrett MOTM for me.

A lot of kickouts gone backwards. They have to go forward. Basic rule.

Jesus there's a bag of cynicism in that game. O gara coming in over the top with the knee was worse than the face grab. He should have been sent off.

It's gouging not a face grab.
