Player took the mark. The fact that he went out after landing is irrelevant. He was in when his feet hit the ground.
It wasn't a mark because:
"In order to be awarded a "Mark", the ball must not have been touched in flight by another player."
Was this always a rule?? Sure players touch all the time challenging for a ball?
Where is that from? Looked a mark to me. I thought the linesman signalled for a sideline ball anyway

Beat me to it again ArmaghMike.
Kerry have always had great footballers over the years and haven't gone too many years barron of a top top player like Clifford, Gooch, Fitzy etc but like you said football skills wont win you an All-Ireland on it's own.
For years it was always the Dubs and Kerry were the main players and then somebody would come along and challenge them like Down in the 60s.
Kerry on Saturday looked like a team very focused with a lot of anger and revenge in their heads, hell bent in showing up these arrogant Northern lot for what they really see them as. O'Connor isn't everyone's cup of tea in Kerry I believe but he certainly knows how to get the job done. The lengths he went to last year to bring in the right people and as you said re-adapt to how the modern game is played now, whether you like it or not.
Kerry knew the early stages of this year meant nothing and losing to Mayo wouldn't define their season, in fact it was a bit like Tyrone losing to Kerry in the league in 21 and creating a false sense of where they were at.
I think they will win the AI this year with quite a bit to spare and believe they have improved from last year.
They showed on Sat that they aren't totally dependent on Clifford and can still put up a big score if he's well marshalled.
I believe that Kerry did coast through the League but losing to Mayo was certainly not in their plans and nor is there any real evidence to suggest that they have improved from last year. If Con O'Callaghan had been fit for last years AI semi final I believe that the Dubs would have won that AI title. That game I believe is still the most reliable form guide and the Dubs are very marginal favourites at the minute because of O'Callaghan and the other returning players. I certainly don't think either side will win it easily.

When was the last 2 in a row ulster champion who didn't make an all Ireland final? Tyrone 94 95 got to the final and lost. Did Armagh or Donegal win 2 in a row and failed to push on as well in more recent times?

I wonder if Tyrone meet Kerry again in next year's Championship will we hear the same BS rhetoric we always hear before Kerry-Tyrone games? e.g. "Tyrone have a hoodoo over Kerry", "Tyrone always raise their game against Kerry".
Even though Kerry have won 4 of their last 5 C'ship games against Tyrone, with margin of victories of 12 pts, 10 pts, 4 pts and 3 pts while Tyrone's win was a 1 pt win AET when Kerry's MOTM had gone off injured.
A lot of journalists and content providers are stealing a living with the same clichés before every game.
Well right back at you, yesterday was Kerrys first win over Tyrone in 5 attempts, with Tyrone winning the last 4. It was overdue.
The league, really?
Yes, really. The League standings are a good indicator for championship football. When was the last time a division 2/3/4 team won the all ireland? Cork 2010 maybe? When was the last before that?
You maybe just tune in from May onwards?

Yeah depends on who gets through but because there are a lot of ties that can't happen again then there are very likely semi final matchings.
If Derry and Tyrone win then they have to meet each other in the semi as neither can meet Armagh or Monaghan so the winners of Dubs v Mayo have to meet them.
If Derry, Kerry and the Dubs win then Derry could meet either Kerry or Dubs but not Armagh/Monaghan and this is why Derry fans will be supporting Tyrone on Saturday.
If Derry, Kerry and Mayo win then Kerry can't play Mayo again and Derry can't play Armagh/Monaghan so it will have to be Derry v Mayo/Kerry and Mayo/Kerry v Armagh/Monaghan.
So it looks like Derry will probably be meeting Kerry or the Dubs/Mayo in the semi final.
Sorry Cork fans but if ye get through then ye can't meet Kerry or Mayo.
Quote from: Wildweasel74 on June 29, 2023, 11:22:18 AMIf Derry beat Cork, Kerry can't meet Dublin because Derry can't meet Monaghan (Round 1) or Armagh (Ulster Final).
Why can't Kerry met Dublin, last year set up no relevance this year?
