Proof that Philly Mc did not headbutt O Shea, only leaned his head towards him, no contact made, slow it down if you like:

A nothing incident. Non Dubs media and Mayo players and management milking it. Apparently the Mayo management were also trying to influence the ref at half time regarding O Shea, influencing officials, what next.

Yes, I don't think it was a headbutt. O'Shea pulled him in.

The dubs were getting cheered for playing 'keep ball' while Donegal got boo'd for it in the Quarter Final.

I hope there's no backlash. Two wrongs and all that. THe attacks on Tyrone should not set the bar for sport journalism.

I don't think you can say that to be honest. Each game has a life of its own, and while I would worry about either full back line against Kerry, I think the power in the attack will have Kerry in bother when they go straight at them.

I'm still saying the winner of this beats Kerry, but yeah, I have to say I was less sure while watching it yesterday.

The winners of the replay should be in a strong position. I think it'll stand to them in the final.

Will Mayo draw on last years replay loss? It would be a very hard way to lose again.

No mention plus no metion of point that went wide that Dublin got or another one after two hops. Joe McQuilan is one of the worst referees in Cavan. How he's an intercounty ref is beyond belief.

I don't think anyone really cares about an odd technical foul. It happens all the time. It's only ever a talking point if the ball is over carried and results in a goal or something. Other than that you'd be all day pointing them out.

O'Rourke comes across as desperate and lacking class. The President was answering direct questions and maybe should have been more careful but O'Rourke and Brolly (on twittter) launch an attacking defence. It gives the impression they're worried.

I wonder did it have an impact on The Sunday Game panel tonight criticising players without being offensive or issuing demands?

It was free in with advantage to Dublin (refs arm in the air). Should have pulled it back i think for free but either way its a point. RTE player - sunday game highlights - 14:25

Yeah I seen that explained earlier.
I wouldn't be too concerned about technical foul missed by a ref anyway.

By the way guys, Kevin Mc double hopped the ball for his point. Amazed no one has picked up on it.

He did the same to win the famous Cluxton free in 2011 final but who's counting.

Brogan hit a kick in first half which looked yards wide. Thought that was why hawkeye was introduced. Awful game. Last ten was great stuff tho. The dubs seem to feel fairly aggrieved. I suppose i would too if someone unexpectantly started applyin the same rules as everyone else when id gotten away with it for years....

The last ten were ok If it had have been like that the whole way through Mayo would have won by about 20 points. Dublin were totally lost at that stage and in the last possession decided they were happy with a draw and made no effort to attack.

This and the AIF will be the 2 best games of the year (do we count Wmeath Meath?)

Really looking forward to it.

I didn't see it but heard Kildare Laois was a cracking game. Leinster might not be so bad after all.
