Thoughts on All Ireland Final
1. Dublin love to be challenged. They have so few opportunities to be involved in a real battle and when one comes along that's when they come alive.
2. Well done to Mayo for being one of the few counties that can provide that challenge. They went for it......in doing so they won the kick out battle for a long time
3. The first goal should never happen. How can an all ireland final team concede that? Mayo never lost composure though and came right back into it.
4. I noticed the embraces Farrell had with McMahon Kevin Mac MDMC etc. They were long and heartfelt. No bitterness seemed to be present and that takes a lot from both parties. Dublin do seem to have a very special bond, again this comes across in interviews. It's not all about money. Wi ning brings a team closer together. Can see them all back in 2021
5. Mayo could take a lot from this game and this year. They had several new players who now know what is required and then fitness levels they have to get to.
6. Other counties need to go after dublin like mayo did. Get 20/22 players to the level required. Can see Kerry Donegal Tyrone possibly Galway getting close in 2021.
