'Dublin Joe' missing a few obvious frees for Dublin and some off the ball stuff form Mayo

Erne Man

It's about time someone showed Donie Vaughan how to tackle - making it easy for McQuillan. Mayo have expended a lot to only be 1 pt up.

Syferus

A bit like the Kerry drawn game, Mayo better but can't shake the opponent. Unlike the Kerry game, Dublin have much more in them.

The final 15 will be the killer for Mayo when the Dublin bench has been unloaded. Boyle, SOS, AOS only have 55 minutes in them at this pace in them so they will either need to be subbed or space will open up for the aforementioned Dublin subs and make matters even worse.

Boyle, Durcan and Vaughan are all very loose man-markers and I'd expect them to be exposed more in the second half.

Officials will do their best for the dubs. Year in year out. Keegan i predict to have the first second yellow. O gara should be off the field. Mayo denied frees they should have had dubs getting frees they shouldn't. Keep dubs in the game even when they play poor.

Last free in given was an awful call.

If Vaughan hadn't run into Kilkenny's back no free would have been given

O'Gara should be off tho. Not that he ever should have been on the pitch in the first place

Subs will be crucial. Dubs finally get a match

Lamh Dhearg Alba

Dubs once again very cynical, systematic fouling to try and stop Mayo getting out of defence and a lot of holding off the ball. They are a great team but it's frustrating that they never get called out for this. They are rattled but it's a shame Mayo aren't further ahead.

It was a clear free

Lot of shite talk about Dublin forwards being the best of all time. By such hyperbole then the Keegan, Boyle, Higgins axis must be at demigod status.

If it wasn't for old mate COC, Mayo could almost be out of sight already.

It's hardly news to anyone who has watched football in the last ten years, but Eoghan O'Gara is genuinely awful.

It was a clear free
He already had 4 steps taken when andrews flattened him. He got up and took another couple.
It should have been a free out for over carrying.
Shocking bad call.

Terrible call and he's dishing out yellows like confetti
