I strayed onto this thread thinking that it was about the upcoming match between Dublin and Donegal - the merits of the two teams and the prospects of each. But of course it's nothing more than the usual anti-Dublin rantfest that is consuming the gaaboard.

I'd tell you go away! But you have little or no experience of the word!

I did try so will do so again. With McBrearty out any chance Donegal has of surprising the dubs is gone

No doubt the loss of McBrearty is huge. He would get on to any forward line in the country. However Declan Bonner will be positive as he has been since he took the job. If he beings some of the spirit of 1992 nothing's impossible. (I still remember the state of shock after that game. Dublin were at least as strongly tipped before that game as they will probably be for this game).

Donegal will certainly go at this game full tilt as they don't have a good enough defence to try & keep it tight.

Whatever elese it will be an entertaining 90 mins.

Another home win for Dublin.

Love that they had the balls to ask this question.

While I agree croke park is dublin's home ground that's not relevant in the super 8s.

Everyone was guaranteed a croke park game not a game at a neutral venue. That's the difference between this game and newbridge. Kildare had the rule book in their favour. Donegal don't!!

Should be changed in the winter but too late for this year,
