Is it me or do Kildare always produce the same type of player? Very athletic and powerful but games smarts maybe a bit off at times. Is this why they struggle at senior level?

Its just you.

Well said mup. Kildare senior team is jam packed with players who are good decision makers and give 100% in every single game. They never lie down. When the pressure is on, they stand up. Always.

Nothing like a bitter Dub. Love it. Reservoir Dubs would welcome your contribution.

He has a point no matter about anything else the Dubs should not be playing in Croker as much as they do and they shouldn't be allowed to designate it as a home venue.

They need their own 20-25k capacity stadium to play their home games!

Exactly. God knows they've gotten plenty of bobs from the gaa/government. Leinster football is a cesspit.

Who'll be paying for this 20-25 seater in the most expensive real-estate area in Ireland?  If it's government funded, will this make you happy they won't be in Croker, or will you use it as more grist for the "dubs get all the money since Bertie" mill?

Fund it the same way as every other county. Unless ye want preferential treatment to build a stadium as well.

I see Glenn Ryan's not happy.  Didn't see the match but does he have grounds for it? What happened?

Apart from the financial doping and playing most of their games in CP? After that I dont know.

I'm as anti-dub as you'll get - completely in favour of breaking Dublin into 4 or 5 or 6... Genuinely.
But this stupid financial doping is a load of non-sensical shite, can we just drop it.
And Ryan has a point, seemed to be a clear trip in front of the posts that would have left a point in it and not forced them to try and work a goal with those last 2 attacks. That said, lilywhites have to be sick tonight. Game was left behind them, just some really bad decisions when more composure was needed in the last quarter. Don't think louth will get as close unfortunately and the dubs will get the 5,000 days since a defeat in Leinster...

The facts speak for themselves. Is it 17 out of 18 Leinsters? No coincidence that this started around Berties monies. Its there in black and white. Btw I blame the Gaa. They have destroyed Leinster football as a result. The likes of Meath and Kildare after regressing since then. What is the point of it all for them? Seemingly (I didnt see it) Kildare played as well as they could today and Dublin still won playing poorly.

Its dead in the water.

Welcome Euan  Hope all well 😊

Very original. You think of that all by yourself?

The truth hurts.

I think it's time us Kildare fans take a step back and really look at Kildare football. Unfortunately we'll never be good enough to challenge on a regular basis. No Leinster in 20+ years. A couple of moral boosting wins in league and championship to keep us going. The reality is that football in Kildare is not good enough.

Time for us GAA fans in Kildare to start following our hurlers more. They are improving the whole time.

Thats terrible news.

RIP and condolences to his family and friends.

Kildare aren't that far ahead of Meath.
One round. Leinster fuball is still broken

Meath. Ah here. Meath are shocking.

Well done Mayo, never give up.

Will be favourites if they get the Ulster/Connacht side and will be the last team Dublin or Kerry want.

Big missed opportunity for Kildare.

I'd say you are more than happy going by your comments all evening. 🙄

Christ the night!! Just read that back Itchy FFS..

"We can coexist with soccer and rugby but hurling is our biggest issue as a football club"

Are you a GAA club or a football only club?  Why don't you do yourself and kids a favour and look for a football only club

Let the kids decide what they want to do, I'd much prefer them hurling to playing rugby and soccer

Your last paragraph is a contradiction. It doesnt really matter which you prefer.

Time for an All Northern Ireland Championship or even better merge with the British Championship

Some abortion of a thread

Leinster and Munster football provincials, Frankenstein's abortion, excuses galore

Ulster pull and drag championship

Last Sundays game would give anyone a dose of apathy

As grim as Northern Ireland

Thank f**k you lot never took to hurling

You'd ruin it too

[Its no surprise one of the few bright lights in Leinster are managed by a Tyrone man prepared to go outside his comfort zone]

Even the ill conceived north/south divide in the Tailteann points to a general unwillingness in the south to put in the hard yards (or mileage in this case)

Counties in Leinster and Munster have given up believing and fighting to be competitive with the Dubs/Kerry, content to be a doormat on their procession to provincial domination and then ask for the goalposts to be moved so they can lower the bar for themselves

Its no surprise one of the few bright lights in Leinster are managed by a Tyrone man prepared to go outside his comfort zone

I would not be prepared to give up the Ulster or Connacht championship due to the apathy and excuse mentality in Leinster and Munster, they need to own it and in time change their ways

Bright lights? The same Louth that were thumped by Kildare who were subsequently thumped by Dublin. Those bright lights?

[Monaghan]

Each of these counties has a population greater than Monaghan and Roscommon, who more than hold their own within their province and nationally.

Yeah Monaghan and Roscommon would really be putting it up to Dublin every year if they played in Leinster 

They certainly wouldn't roll over and have their bellys tickled like all of Leinster does.

I'm sure if the GAA pumped millions into a particular county in Ulster you'd find the results would turn out similar.
