As for the claim O'Brien should get off, absolute nonsense. That last tackle should see him miss the final entirely in its own merits.

Catch yourself on. Was harmless tackle you'd swear he boxed the head off someone. Hope he gets off.

We can't beat a good team.

Or indeed, an average one.

Were does that leave armagh?

It wasn't a snide comment. Merely an observation. Kerry are average.

Neither was mine... genuine question???

Definitely top 12, possibly top 10 in Ireland vs Tyrone being top 5. Not really claiming to be anything more.

Deegan won't be holidaying in Tyrone this year.

I hate Tyrone with a passion.
But even I have to admit Deegan is absolutely biased.
Dreadful, simply dreadful.

At what point can you question if the ref is simply against you. Repeat of 2015 all over again

Must be Northern teams because he rode us too vs Mayo.

[the give away for the goal.]

Bitterly disappointed we really had kerry were we wanted And should have seen it out.
Deegan was held bent on making this about himself and the dream final, a complete disgrace.
In saying that the wides early on in the 2nd half lost it and the give away for the goal.
Rte rubbing salt in the wounds by giving the black card hero man of the match

Don't forget the stray pass which ended up a goal for Kerry

Reading an issue in armagh too?

Ouch. Salty.

O'Brien sounds pretty confident that he will get off one of the black cards anyway. Unsurprisingly.

Deservedly. Daftest rule ever created.

Kerry deserving winners and I thought it was a better game than most others here seem to have viewed it. Deegan gave Kerry a few soft frees but don't think you could argue he was the difference at all. Kerry took over in the second half and won because Tyrone's system is not good enough against the tope teams if they play it right. I was surprised Kerry were so poor in the first half and carried so much down the middle, that's the last thing you do, especially with isolated carriers. They showed more patience and picked the holes in the second half.


Hard to know how Kerry will do in the final. Their defence will hardly hold up against the Dubs.

Tyrone lost by 3 points. Kerry got at least 3 non frees, mcshane didn't get a clear free at the other which resulted in kerry goal. Def ref impacted the came. Key had 2 non frees given in first 5 min of 2nd half even commentators questioned them

Don't know what you were watching but the goal came from a shite handpass. The ref did ride yas but can't blame him there.

Maybe bitter here but 3-4 gifted frees from ref kept Kerry in the game for 2nd time since 2015. Only consolation is that he wont ref the final and kerry will be destroyed

Ref was woeful for both teams but yeah gave Kerry more. Don't know how he was allowed back to a championship game after his performance in Castlebar when we played Mayo.

Deegan should never be allowed another game outside Junior B. Although better team won on the day. Scary to think what Mannion and O'Callaghan will do to that defence though if they don't tighten up.

Where is the sweeper for Kerry playing?

Must have been in sweeping the changing rooms that half.

Diving Tyrone ****. Good job he didn't touch his hair.

When they came for Leinster you laughed at us told us to stop whinging and get better, you're just shit it's not our problem. Looks like the rest of the country are just as shit. Why is Ulster so competitive they ask, simply they are all just as shit as each other.

Like it or not, the Dubs have set the standard. At the end of the day its up to the rest to catch up no point whinging. 

Con O'callaghan was left on for 10 mins after a heavy blow to the head yesterday. When he eventually did come off he puked his guts up on the sideline. Remind me what vomiting is a symptom of again?

He got a nasty (but deserved) belt in the guts. I'd say that was it.

I think Mannion is nailed on for one anyway

Fenton, Howard and O'Callaghan nailed on now as well.

Fenton looming good for POTY

con is the short odds favorite for POTY with Paddy Power

Couldn't have any complaints if either of those two won it going by what we've seen so far anyway, barring a miracle from Clifford or Donnelly or the like today and in the final

You feel uneasy after that start to second half by Dublin. It's realistically looking closer to 10 in a row. Is Cork now the best hope to beat them, say by middle of next decade?

Kerry surely with all these minor teams should be be beating the Dubs within the next 2 years.

They should be doing it now.

Sure maybe they will.
