All Ireland Quarter Final Kerry V Down

[Hardy]

Either Down, Meath or Kildare will be in the final. Incredible.

I'd have taken that six months ago.

Either Down, Meath or Kildare will be in the final. Incredible.

Why do you think the lads on here are doing handstands that Kerry are out?

They've been dismal today in fairness.

Congrats to Down, great performance. Enjoyable game to watch, special mention to the keeper, that last save was top drawer.

[Bord na Mona man]

The small teams won't get the big decisions. That could have won the game for Down.

What a load of bulldung.

Great show by Down. Amazing what they can do, decade after decade when they escape out of Ulster.

The difference is that Down don't traditionally fear Kerry.
Kerry's reputation and tradition is usually worth 4 or 5 points against the majority of teams.
Some of Kerry's All Irelands owe a bit to teams bowing down instead of taking them on.

[From the Bunker]

It's mad but you can't beat tradition!

Kerry out in July! Who'd have thunk it?

Cork/Tyrone favourites now but not a good year for favourites. Are ye listening Rossies?

[Hedley Lamarr]

Fair play to Down...well done, hard luck to Kerry.

[bloodybreakball]

dont think that the referee could have seen benny coulters handpass, so how could he have give it as a foul

[Mickeys beard]

Well Done Down!  Kerry handed four ponts on a plate by ref.  Forget about Galvin-Tomas O'Shea is a man mountain in these games he has consistently pushed Kerry on.  Some great points by Down.

[Hardy]

Beginning to remind me of Meath-Kerry 2001.

[Hardy]

Penalty me arse!

[Hedley Lamarr]

Kerry missing leaders on the pitch today....Toma O'Se and Paul Galvin big loss.

[muppet]

A penalty! Where exactly?

Not sure tradition has much to do with it to be honest. Kerry have just been very poor today even allowing for the players they are missing.

The Down lads look like they're after winning a league game!
