Maigh Eo v Dubh Linn, Pairc Mhic Eil, 14ú Marta @ 1900

[twohands!!!]

HT: Mayo 0-6 Dublin 2-10

Dublin got a bit lucky with the 2nd goal given how blatant the 2 hops were but overall there's only one team in this.

Mayo getting a right battering here.

The amount of time and space the Dublin forwards are getting to work in compared to the Tyrone game is light years apart.

Will be interesting to see how Dublin handle the the 2nd half given the the game is pretty much won already.

Just listening on RnaG now, sounds like we're getting destroyed.

2-12 to 0-6, just missed a goal chance

[macdanger2]

RnaG switched to Laois match, good call

Great timing for Mayo on this one. Dubs will play a full strength team but out of Croker they don't operate so well and without the likes of Kildare giving them 5 or 6 home games in the league they're struggling.
Mayo look to be safe so will probably continue with experimental line ups, this is a shot to nothing for them. A win would be great but a loss wouldn't be the end of the world. You could easily see themselves and cork drawing in Cork to put them both through to the semi finals

Well I think the Dubs not operating so well outside of Croker has been well and truly put to bed now.

Did they not lose both games away before tonight?

This result shows the up and down nature of this year's league, where a team can deliver a couple of impressive performances, and then get soundly beaten. This trend has been evident across all 4 divisions. Having said that, did anyone expect a 14 point thrashing for Mayo in this game? Interesting to hear John Casey on Mwr afterwards still clinging to the old line of '' it's only March''.

Its heading into winter for this Mayo outfit, if young Alan Dillon, Freeman and Ronaldson are the answer to yere lack of power up front then ye are right back in the pack with worse to come.

Look at the fookin Rossies out in their droves. Hateful fookers. Away and worry about your own lot for a change.

The thing is that while Mayo are on 6 points after the 5 games in the league but they have hardly had anything I would remotely describe as impressive performances. Mayo have beaten a Kerry team just off the plane who did a decent impression of a side who had been on the beer the night before and the two favourites for relegation - one of whom they left back into the game when they had the end line in sight and the other who had a complete disciplinary meltdown and ended up the game with 13 men, while losing at home to both Tyrone and Dublin.

It's one thing to win a game when the opposition give an 7 or an 8 out of 10 performance but a whole different kettle of fish when the opposition are turning in 2/3/4 out of 10 performances.

The fact that Dublin were simply left play the game completely on their own terms was a massive warning bell - especially when Tyrone only a week ago gave a tactical masterclass in how to cause Dublin serious trouble.
