Who lines up as sub keeper for Kildare is the main thing I'm interested in here. Enda Murphy maybe?
Ollie Crinnigan.
I'm guessing it will be Declan Campbell (Raheens).
Yeah good call

Maybe him in the blue cap.
Or the green cap behind the pole.
Campbell it is.
Not doing too bad here, Kerry must be conserving energy for the Dublin game.
I think it is fair to say Kildare's paranoia about referees is somewhat justified.
Flicking between the two and anytime I turn over Kerry seem to be benefiting from some soft or idiotic decisions.

Is Galway Monaghan televised??
Kildare once again rode by the ref. Jesus Tyrone used to get dogs abuse for being divers and some of it was certainly not undeserved but this Kerry team are a ever bit as bad as we ever were.
Getting f**king rode!
Some Neymaresque play acting from the Kerry player to get the Kildare man the line there.

Both on Sky simultaneously
What's the keeper at? The previous keeper got caught out too coming out and unable to solo the ball
Monaghan and Galway were the best sides in our group. Natural justice that Kerry are out.
It might have been entertaining to see them take a big beating off Dublin though, moreso for the pundit meltdown.
If Kildare could keep they discpline and been more streetwise this year; things could have turned out different!
Anytime I've watched Kildare I always think there's something there, plenty of potential.

New management next year and some squad reinforcements to come in. No 1st teamers at obvious retirement age yet either so hopefully we can have a good team next year.

Paddy tally would make some job of them.
Clifford outstanding the day again, i say himself and McManus are odds on for the corner forwards spots for all stars this year@

O'Neill's term is up and enough people are 100% sure (I'm not fully convinced myself) he is gone to Munster rugby for me to guess he is gone.

I didn't know that. It will be interesting to see if he commits to another term. He probably deserves it but has to improve in some areas.

Just went onto the william hill site to see the odds for the all ireland. Believe it or not kerry are still 9/1. Tyrone are 11/1 with donegal and monaghan at 16/1. Any of those 3 would be a good each way bet.
Kildare have made decent progress this year, competitive + a bit unlucky in both 1st division and Super 8s. If they can keep the team together could be stronger contenders next year
Fitzmaurice gone

QuoteCian O'Neill was very non committal when asked about his future after the game today. It is the end of his 3 year term now and he said he will discuss things with his wife Tammy, the players and the county board before a decision is made regarding next year.
We will have to wait and see.

I think they'll kick on from this and do well next year. That would mean staying in Div 1. They were close to Monaghan, close to galway with 14 men and you cant read much into today with the circumstances and sendings off.
We are back in division 2. The problem is that the ceiling of our aspirations is to get back to division 1 and make the super 8s again.

sry - got that wrong. Still they have a good side that weren't far away. Plenty to be optimistic about
will this be only the 3rd time this century that Kerry won't be in the All-Ireland semi-finals? Down 2010 and Donegal 2012 are the only 2 1/4 final exits i can think of.
Yep read that somewhere earlier
They have th'oul pedigree alright.
Jack O'C to replace Fitzmaurice?
Kildare will be happy with their Summer (up to half time today) especially after the Carlow result.

Judging by the abuse he took from the Kerry supporters after their u20 defeat there is very little chance of Jack getting it I reckon. Peter Keane, Pat O'Shea and possibly Liam Kearns would be the most likely candidates. Donie Buckley has to be part of the backroom whoever gets it.
The rerun in on sky now. Hope young and clifford aren't too badly hurt ..... kildare badly shafted by all the officials in the last 5 mins of the 1st half
Not a Kerry person. Was standing behind the kildare goals in the first half. Hyland and Doyle spent the first 30 seconds of the game laying into Clifford and O Shea. Looked like an obvious planned ploy to rattle the 2 younger Kerry forwards. You might say that's championship football but when Clifford scored a fantastic point after selling hyland a dummy Hyland then threw him to the ground by swinging out of his collar. Black card all day. It appeared kildare went out to be ultra physical in certain areas. You're walking a tightrope then and running the risk of picking up cards

I'm neutral on this as well but I just hate to see the carry on that Young was at. I know its common enough nowadays but its horrible to see it rewarded
Fitzmaurice's exit interview was very interesting. He wasn't very happy with kerry support / media at all. Basically said the young guys won't be given time under him so he's stepping aside for someone new to come in as that will give them more time. Expectations probably too high in Kerry I would say. Even if they do turn into great players they could only hope to beat Dublin every now and then as they are unlikely to dominate with how good they are.

Did Young not get a slap in the follow up. I saw the lad swinging a hand in fairly hard on his head when he was on the ground. I said he'd be lucky to stay on when I saw how close the linesman was. It was daft.
The red card was a joke. Flynn slapped at the ball and Killian Young started flaling about like a fish out of water. Farcical and embarrassing. Never a red card.
Black for the full back was deserved although kildare should have had a free before that for a blatant foul. Overall I thought kildare were ridden rock solid by the ref. Gave them nothing.
Can see Donaghy retiring as well. Didn't appear for the 2nd half and was ineffective when he was on the pitch.
