Mayo fairly wound up tonight. Think I saw two spears earlier and one rock bottom just there. Dublin playing at more traditional ambling league pace.

The Dubs aren't happy with the length of the grass in Castlebar.
Wait till they see the Hyde in April.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

Enjoyable game, I get nervous when AOS starts to solo the ball :)

The Mayo blanket defense has worked a treat and with the advantage of the wind to come Mayo will have a good opportunity to win this game.

10 mins to go. Mayo 0-5 Dublin 0-7 hard to pick a winner.

That's what you'd call a good wide  there for Dublin

Awful game of football. Pitch was a bog and stopped Dublin playing their free flowing game. Mayo really psyched upfor tonight some of the players though lost the heads. Colm Boyle was a red card waiting to happen all night. Lost the heads for 1st yellow and started row for his 2nd.

James McCarthy best player in the pitch. was playing a different sport to everyone else.  Conditions seemed to have no effect on his performance

Excellent win for Dublin.

Played absolutely shite and still won

Infinitely better than last week, showed good effort considering our fitness levels are behind Dublin's. Didn't cough up any goal chances. DOC was excellent I thought, serious engine on him. Good to see Higgins back too.

That last Dublin point was clearly wide, poor from the umpire.

Fair assessment

Main Street

A big improvement from Mayo.
The Dubs did well to do just enough.

Dublin are doing one night at week at present. We've barely put the car in first.

brutal weather make it a poor enough game, All-Ireland intermediate final was the best game on the day.

Good disciplined display from Mayo. Young lads stuck at it and fair play to them. Boyler set tone of not taking sh1te. This had to be done. Dublin who half cared about the game would have ran a muck otherwise. Tonight was all about the fight for Mayo with so many key players missing and we at least gave that. Tonight was not about entertainment but containment. The last thing we needed was to play football and get hockeyed and the young lads to leave with a bad experience.

Dublin had a point given that was clearly wide. Can't fathom why the linesman on our side who could see that it was, did not flag it to the referee? Maybe he does not have the power. Anyway made no difference, thenk god!

Cafferkey MOTM.

Our forwards were not in it and we can't get the best outta Aido in the Full forward line against the Dubs.

Still a positive performance and kudos to Rochford and Co.

Was talking to Gay Sheerin (former Rossie Goalkeeper legend) after the game. I asked him if there was anything to worry him from the Mayo performance? And he said emphatically No! Mayo have no forwards and they don't look like they will find any!
