Dublin

[weareros]

And yet no team has won a back to back All-Ireland since Cork in 1990? Let them achieve that first before we even start to worry about a crisis in our game.

Edit: Kerry in 2007.

[seafoid]

The Dubs are number 2 in Sams won and had a bad run for about 25 years post 1983 . 4 all Irelands including 95 is less than the long term average.

[screenexile]

Are the  Dubs fitter/more physical than Donegal were in 2012 or Tyrone in 2005?

Definitely more physical and fitter than Tyrone 2005... Donegal I'm not so sure but Donegal's age demographic and lack of depth has meant they were unable to sustain it for more than one season.

Was there an replay for the OMahoney Johnny Cooper incident?
Two lads well able to throw their weight around. O Mahoney at it for years and can't forget Coopers rake on Diarmuid O Connor in drawn semi and got in Seamus O Shea face enough to draw a black card in the replay.

Distant footage from the Canal End that really only shows that Kinsella didn't see the incident himself so the linesman must have made the call.

Comments below it are great, in fairness to the Dubs they are all on the same page. It's all just begrudgery.

I know they started from a lower base in the hurling, but they don't look like dominating it any time soon.
They're now reasonably competitive, but that's the same as half a dozen other hurling counties and I'd include Cork in that!
There's only so much a gym program will bring your hurling on 

[Jinxy]

The hurlers need more money.

[Zulu]

The only reason they aren't much further up the pecking order in hurling is that the best young hurlers go to football. If they picked hurling Dublin would probably be only behind Kilkenny.

There should undoubtedly be targeted funding for other counties, starting with the bigger ones, but many of them still have to ask themselves why they're so far off the standard of Dublin.

Sweeney concludes that Dublin cannot be split up which is missing the point.
It is desirable that there be a lot of people playing GAA in Dublin and the application of funding to achieve that is perfectly reasonable. What is not fair is that this large number of people playing is aggregated into population units, either club or county, which creates teams that distort national competitions.

And of course other counties too need to get their act together, which doesn't negate the above point.

He's a Mayo man living in Kildare, does a lot of good work on the GAA PR scene in North Kildare. He's just another anti-dub.

I think, to be fair to everyone, we should split all of the counties that have won Sam since 2000.

And Roscommon, just in case like.

I'd actually be in favour of amalgamating Roscommon and Mayo. Mosco has a nice ring to it.

I could be wrong on this but I think Cormac is back living in Mayo now.
