Aye the standard last year was very poor, weren't they hammered out the gate by Dublin's 5ths!!

I don't think they won a game against anyone.

Presumably they will be having a few matches against a lower standard of team this series.

Shocked its back, last year was a shambles.

Massive hard on for one's self.

Credentials required to actually watch the show.
Exhausted the entire TV and Internet viewing in the world.

So no, I don't think I'll be tuning in.

Their big "final" at the end of the series is against Mayo.

The Dublin trashing undermined everything the coaches and players did throughout the series. It made them look absolutely useless which was unfair to those involved.

Then the show is flawed. Not fair to exoect a team to throw a game for ratings

Hopefully they move away from the X-Factor like back stories this year and stick to the football / pitch. I'm not holding out much hope though.

Dublin were a disgrace putting up a score like that last year. Yes, I know they had to win or face eternal ridicule but would it have killed them to take the foot off the gas even for the second half?

Probably even less. Argh....not my type of thing. But that's what creates audiences these days.

Tripe TV.
Reality TV for the GAA fan. It just doesn't work.
I've tried to watch it a few times....It's so bad I can't make it through an episode.

I gave it half an hour last night and after the third sob story in that time I had to turn off. I'll tune in for the match but as an hour long programme every week I'm not interested anymore.
