Title: Would Dublin beat Ulster?
Post by: Under Lights on September 03, 2018, 04:37:00 PM
In a series of five games who would win more- Dublin or the pick of Ulster- ie Beggan, Harte, Hampsey, Murphy, Paddy McB, No-one from Derry, etc

God, I don't think so- Ulster would win that with 8 weeks prep I would say. Imagine the strongest team.

During the early 1960s there was an annual game between the All Ireland champions and a Rest of Ireland selection. As far as I know the All Ireland champions usually won.

What do you mean no-one from Derry etc,Chrissy McKaigue is one of the best backs in Ireland and is every bit as good as any of the elite Dublin backs.
An Ulster Select would beat Dublin in 100 games out of 100.
You're talking about the Cream of Tyrone,Monaghan and Donegal,3 of the top 6/8 sides in the country for a start  and each of the other 6 teams has outstanding players aswell.
Dublin are a fantastic team,undoubtedly one of the best ever, but the hype is getting ridiculous.

I know, that's why I am asking if Dublin could beat Ulster as opposed to the other way around.

BHMan McKaigue wouldn't even make their team. Excellent as he is he's not at that level.

The other 31 counties would be lucky to beat Dublin never mind just 9.

A scratch Ulster team wouldn't have a prayer against the Dubs.  Maybe if they trained together for a couple of years they might have a chance.

The Ulster panel would all have to get jobs and live within a few miles of each other.
Would need to train together for a year and then play in the NFL.
Or the 31 other Counties could bring a Motion to Congress requiring Dublin to field 4 teams in the SFC based on the 4 Local Authority areas.

They mightn't  beat a Mayo engine plus scoring forwards like Paddy McBrearty, McManus, Shane Walsh etc

At least counties outside Leinster have a chance of winning some silverware. 11 countries in Leinster ( 1/3 of the Championship ) have no chance of wining anything. Maybe win a first round championship game with the dubious prize of the Dublin monster(s) tramping them into the ground after that.

Post by: Armagh18 on September 03, 2018, 10:10:16 PM
Tyrone plus Beggan and 2 good forwards e.g. McManus and McBrearty would beat Dublin.

Post by: Jinxy on September 03, 2018, 10:11:13 PM
Plus three half-backs and a midfield.
