Dublin did their best to keep Kerry in it. 10 points the better team. Philly McMahon deserves a long ban. Terrible game not helped by terrible conditions. Well done Dublin

If Kerry had Cormac Reilly on the pitch they'd have had a better chance!

Biggest evidence that the championship format needs to change.  The organised  lack of competitively in 2 sides of the draw guarantees safe passage each year. On basic skills alone there will be ejects making arguments that Both teams hardly deserved to be there based on that.  Congrats dublin it was a good victory on the day when they were rarely tested

What was McMahon at? He had a good game but he's a tr**p

Terrible game of football but the Dubs are worthy champions over the championship and congratulations to them. Back to back puke performances in AI finals from the "aristocrats".

Is this the worst ever performance by any Kerry team in an AI final? Brutal.

Certainly, in recent times anyway. So much for Fitzmaurice's tactical nous

Absolutely - when push came to shove he went for the old guard of Sheehan, O'Sullivan, Donaghy and Galvin.
Doesn't seem to show a lot of faith in his new players.

Time added on is ridiculous.
Common enough in games

yeah, there was very little time for football in added time

congrats to dublin. not every championship is a classic, but they're all for winning

Terrible conditions but pretty woeful game of football all told even allowing for that. Not that the Dubs will care tonight. Scoreline was very flattering to Kerry in the end. Dublin much better throughout virtually.

One of the worst ever All Ireland finals I have ever seen. Jim Gavin has serious CV now with the amount of U21 and senior All Irelands won.

Congrats to the Dubs. They can't control the conditions, but adapted much better than a lot of the Kerry players did. Clearly very worthy champions, once again.

Mayo will be crying in their beer tonight though! Always good enough, but never on the day.
