Very cynical from castlebar towards the end but great win for them.

Hopefully they'll go on and win it now

Fair play Mitchels, they are a great team with great belief and great fight.

Great match. Castlebar acting like they've won the AI. Very cynical at the end, Cross mgmt looked furious

Have no love for cross but jeez the ref beat them today .

Moortown Spuds

How cynical were the Connaught team and management. Unbelievable. Pulling, mouthing and scummy behaviour. Shame. Good side.

Is a win at all costs mantra acceptable as long as it's not a team from the black north?

What was the selector / man in the cap at pushing the cross lad getting the sideline ball at the end  there, that threaten to start into a real melee there,

Sweet Jesus - where do the GAA get these referees from. The standard of the top refs is extremely poor. The 2 referees today were abysmal in all aspects of the game. Cassidy is woeful, he allowed Nelson to run a mile to get the equalising score and then gave 'Boden everything in ET to win.

As for Kinsella - nightmare he was for both teams and had absolutely no control in this game.

Kinsella, Conor Lane, Duffy brothers, Cassidy - did any of them ever kick a ball ??

The standard is woeful, players devoting their lives to train for games and then get shafted by clowns like these men.

To be fair Cross aren't exactly known for easing up on the oul cyclical play. They give it but they also take it. They were quite gracious in defeat tonight. Another team could have seen a mass brawl the way that game ended

Very cynical by Castlebar once they got ahead. Fingers will be pointed at Kinsella but they failed to react to the dominance of Barry Moran in the second half and were physically dominated in a lot of areas. Other than Clarke and T Kernan a lot of Cross players under performed

I would be upset if I were from Armagh

The ref shafted them

you can blame the ref all you want but Cross only themselves to blame for not winning that one. refs not good but not helped by players pushing to the limits of the rule and beyond to win, what the castlebar captain say after the game, win at all costs! sums up the attitude to Gaelic football these days,

Captain Obvious

Castlebar weathered the first half storm well and took control of the contest in the second half. It's a risk to say a Mayo side will win the All Ireland final however after the manner of that win this evening it's hard to see Ballyboden beating them.

Tubberman

Stop whinging lads, mitchels did what they needed to, just as cross would have.

Patrick Durcan M.O.M .If he stays injury free he will be an absolute star for Mayo in the coming years
