They haven't a hope though, in reality. She's something else, that's for sure.

Looking forward to this weekends games. Dublin Monaghan will be closer than the 12 points to 3 points scoreline from their league match earlier this year. Championship different competition and Monaghan will be well up for this.
Armagh Donegal will be close too - expecting Aimee Mackin and Caroline O'Hanlon if at full tilt to sway this one. Only 1 point separated these in their league game so close match to be expected.

Dunno if anyone can shed light on this? Derry lost to Lancashire in Junior championship - heard 3rd hand re party time Manchester Friday night - players missed flights home etc - shocking if true and if true maybe reason why Derry are still stuck in Junior grade.

Louth favourites for this one - can't see anyone challenging them - Lancashire will give them a game but still expect the Louth girls to progress.

Would expect Kildare and Fermanagh to progress in the Intermediate grade this weekend and Kildare probably favourites to go all the way. With Waterford and Leitrim in the other semi final this will be close, but Kildare having played in the higher league this year, they would be expected to win through by September – though it won't be easy.

Which comes first: ladies football or netball commitments?

Tense finish - thought maybe heading for a draw when Armagh went down to 14 - Armagh no. 25 did well - Aimee Mackin has some turn of speed and helped create chances - great claim by No. 6 when Donegal were pushing for the equaliser and Geraldine McLaughlin waiting for a break that didn't come.
Over the game felt the better team won but suspect they'll find AI semi final will be a major step up.

Had a nice double on Armagh + Dublin; thought bookies had Armagh over-priced at 15-8 in what was always going to be a close game. Think Armagh-Dublin could be tight, All-Ireland winners will come form other semi-final. Aimee Mackin is a wonderful talent

Fair play to Offaly beating Fermanagh 0.13 to 1.07 - 13 scores to 8 so maybe more than 3 points better - would infer maybe not much between Division 3 and 4 counties.
Kildare were too strong for Wexford winning 2.18 to 2.07 and would expect them to win against Offaly now too.
Next week Derry and Carlow in Junior quarter final - would expect Derry to prevail assuming they focus on the football and no fall out from the Lancashire escapade (assuming there is some substance to the rumours)

The 2 Saturday matches will be tight affairs - Waterford and Cork to prevail - any thoughts?

I was gutted for the Monaghan ladies for the huge effort they put in, but overall they were beaten by a better outfit and one well versed in the blanket defence. The scrubbers were infinitely more clinical in taking their own chances  and defended in effective swarm fashion to force the Monaghan ladies to hit a hatful of wides, I think the wide score was  14-3 in Monaghan's favour.
Both teams were totally exhausted and out on their feet at the end, nothing was left on the pitch

See changes in timings for Saturday to allow the Dublin fans to take in both the Ladies and the men's matches - a real pity the GAA wouldn't allow a double header - would have increased the profile of the Ladies game again. Reckon Kildare and Dublin to win this weekend - Derry and Louth to progress to Junior final against Scotland and Lancashire on Sunday too.

Ladies need to come under the GAA umbrella if they want to avoid this happening. Very easy (and probably correct, if your sole commitment is to GAA interests) for the GAA to refuse to let an outside organisation stage yet another game the day before the showpiece hurling match of the year. If they are all part of the same organisation this would be far harder for the GAA to do as they'd be promoting all the sports rather than some of them.

see a major problem  with the women game, this timeclock and hooter all well and fine but it is not stopped during bookings etc, the ref took nearly a minute to yellow card a cork player at the end when time for Dublin was short, the booking was more of a major disadvantage to Dublin than the yellow card was for cork. They need to look at time stoppage for deliberate yellow card offences down the line, good last 10Min's from what i seen

God, Referees have no cop on! Even in the Ladies game there, a cork girl does a sin bin tackle. Time is running out and he proceeds to spend a minute doing the paperwork (there was two minutes left before incident). In the meantime the clock is running down and instead if he let it go Dublin would have had a minute more to get a goal. But instead the culprit team are rewarded. So is sport!

And a lot of referees don't know either. In ladies football you can not tackle while the ball is being held in against the ball carriers body. Only when they attempt to play the ball may you tackle the ball. It is, in theory, a non contact sport.

There was a massive effort in Mayo this year to try and get Cora one more AI before she retired. There was an opening as Cork are definitely less dominant than they have been in recent years this season. That game was there for Mayo to take in the final ten minutes.

From watching lads football all the time it's hard to get into the mindset of what constitutes a free/foul in the ladies game.

And a lot of referees don't know either. In ladies football you can not tackle while the ball is being held in against the ball carriers body. Only when they attempt to play the ball may you tackle the ball. It is, in theory, a non contact sport.

There's lots to be admired about the ladies game but they have a tackle rule that is even less enforceable than the men's unless you want a totally non-contact game. It's odd though as the rulebook tackle is clearly not what's enforced.

Same as the men's so

There was a massive effort in Mayo this year to try and get Cora one more AI before she retired. There was an opening as Cork are definitely less dominant than they have been in recent years this season. That game was there for Mayo to take in the final ten minutes.

You getting all excited about Mayo as usual, when you going to call off the pretence and admit you have a serious thing for all things rhubarb?

Two really good games on Saturday. Hard luck to Sligo.  Can't understand why 8 yellow cards were dished out in a very clean and sporting game.

Well done to Katie Walsh and all the sligo girls - good luck to Kildare in the final

Only watched the last 20 minutes and Mayo would probably have won if Cora Staunton wasn't so greedy.

Assinine comment. Cora has given unbelievable service to Mayo Ladies since 1995 and will only truly be missed when she's gone. Her contribution to Mayo puts her miles above your mealy-mouthed comment. If the rules were applied as the were in the Intermediate game , at least three of the Dublin backs would have been yellow carded for fouling her. That's not to say that Mayo didn't foul too or even deserved to win, but any fair-minded viewing of the treatment dished out to Cora in a supposedly non-contact sport with minimal protection from referees, would have to agree that she is more sinned against than sinner.

So head away off, taking your bile with you, and be glad that you had the privilege of seeing her play.

Padraig Joyce would have been proud of that run-up.

Nobody is above criticism even the great Cora Staunton who is probably the greatest ladies player of all time, as I stated I only watched the last 20 minutes and in that time she probably had 6 or 7 attempts from bad angles that either dropped short or went wide. In that time Mayo worked a brilliant goal and a few other points without her involvement.

She had a few bad wides at the end and indeed at the start. Played well in between that, although I wasn't impressed by her reaction to the Mayo goal.

Greatest player of all time though without a doubt.

Staunton's crucial goal against Westmeath in the 1/4 final was just as bad. She was inside the penalty spot when she kicked it.
