I think the all ireland really needs a team that has not won it in a long time to give it a boost a team.

[Armagh18]

Why would you boycott a Kerry Dublin game. Should we ask them not to try as hard to give the other counties a chance.

[Eire90]

People may not boycott it directly but i think a mental boycott will happen people will be like mehhh and be apathetic if its kerry v dublin again does not matter if the game itself is good no matter how the media spin with stuff like kerry trying to stop the dubs win 2 in a row or something,

[Armagh18]

Fair enough. Personally I'd watch it just for the quality of footballers alone. What might become an interesting one in a few years is if Dublin get close to Kerrys record of wins.

Unfortunately I can't see that happening anytime soon. Galway probably the best candidate, but they're still a bit away.

Galway if they can keep everyone fit and in form have a great chance, if Harte can raise Derry another level they could catch one of the big 2.

Not for me, personally.

Monaghan & Derry weren't far away in their semis this year. They have to believe they can beat them next time.

2 bad decisions away for beating Kerry by 3/4 points this year. Squad bolstered, MH in charge... Who knows?

Depends on Clifford I suppose. If he gets to an ai club final with Fossa he'll have played some football in last 2 years, bound to take its toll. Anyway wasn't a whole pile between Derry and Kerry last year. Probably wouldnt have been much between Derry and Dublin either

There is a big difference between staying in contention to 65 mins and winning

True. But if its in the melting pot at that stage anything can happen. Lucky goal, a penalty, a red card etc

Most times the team with experience grinds out the win.

Monaghan have experience, won ulster relatively recently...been in the latter stages of the AI and have a group of players that have been around a long time. The age of their experienced players might be their downfall though as they rely heavily on the older lads.

Derry have a good age profile, have loads of experienced players in terms of club series from Slaughtneil and Glen. Plenty of players now who have won all-ireland minors too and who have played in the latter stages of the AI whilst also winning back to back ulsters. The only experience lacking is winning an AI. But I take your point, in an AI final the team who have been there and done it before will always have an edge.

So it's Monaghan to beat Derry in 2024 AI Final?
Would be great to have a Final without Kerry, Dublin, Tyrone or the crowd to the West of us.
