Fairly embarrassing from Mannion there. No doubt it will be sweeped under the carpet like similar incidents with Cooper and McMahon were in the past. If a player from another county was guilty of what Mannion did there......
Tiernan mccann done it and was on public trial. Doubt the same standard will applied to the dubs

Seriously? You're comparing those two incidents

They are directly comparable. In both cases the player wasn't hit in the face and both cases they fell to the floor like diving dirt bags

McCann has his hair ruffled and threw himself to the ground like he was shot. Mannion was actually shoved to the ground and yeah he held his face, but it was nothing like the McCann incident

So going down holding the face dispite there being no actual contact to the face is not comparable? Your embarrassing yourself now. Put your hands up, admit he dived and move on

You're the one embarrassing yourself fella. Now why don't you put your hands up, admit the two incidents are incomparable, and head to your bed

They get momentum, they go mad, here they go

Most on here are looking at this the wrong way! It's not that Meath are awful. It's a case of a Professional outfit has come against an almost Amateur team.

Delighted to see Dublin win and hammer their opponents. It's the only way to sort this mess out. I hope they go on to win the AI as well.
The Leinster final will have a lower attendance next year.

They were awful especially in that 2nd half. Dublin didn't even have to play that well to hammer Meath.

I'm surprised anyone bothers going to Dublin matches any more.
That was never a square ball!!

Congrats to the people of Dublin, another Leinster title.

Are some dives more acceptable than other dives?

As a Dub, that was one of the most depressing sporting spectacles I have ever witnessed

A silent, half-empty Croke Park, a dank wet day, and the most pathetic forward performance I've ever seen at this level

July 6th, 1991 is a long, long time ago

Did you see the bit on the TV where Cluxton lifted the Cup, the producer shot to the crowd and there in the crowd was a Dublin fan yawning!

Ah, don't be sad ye have won 9 in a row! Go out on the town and celebrate. This is all from your superior voluntary coaching. It's a day to be proud of!

Professionals v amateurs. Super 8 will be more of the same.

National problem.

Mannion didn't dive did he? He was actually push to the ground. He grabbed his face when he wasn't hit on the face but he didn't dive

The only thing competitive in this years championship will be for places on the Dublin starting 15.
