AISF Maigh Eo v Tiobraid Arann, 1530 06ú Nollaig 2020

[Angelo]

Gough is a terrible ref. He needs an ego check.

20 minutes into the game that had absolutely no talking points and you're blaming the ref?? My god man you're either 12 or 35 years old  but the mind of a 12 year old

What did I blame the ref for?

I just pointed out that he's a terrible ref who is far, far too fussy. He awarded a load of soft frees in that first 15 minute spell. Blowing up frees for the most minor and technical of infringements that the vast majority of referees let go as they are not inane egomaniacs like Gough.

Hugely worrying for Mayo but much more so hugely encouraging for them

It's prototype Horan football, high octane, revved up, turbo charged, lethal, and their young players are being seamlessly blended in

It's a brutalisation

Yet they still have the same dreadful failings at the back they had in 2013 and 2014

Lee Keegan can man mark but he is not a close to goal man marker

But make no mistake, Mayo are at full speed championship pace, have serious football under their belts and have a cutting edge that they didn't have before

And they show no sign of going away any time soon

They will be in with a serious puncher's chance on December 19th

Split Mayo in 2

[lenny]

Goal number 3 for Mayo and O'Connor. That goal sums up Tipps day.

The only thing that can save tipp is the fog. Mayo looking really good, clinical and cynical.

As I said.

Was someone on here not too long ago saying they would rather Darren McCurry than Cillian O'Connor?

Ffs Pat Spillane could come down from the stands and play as well as O'Connor

[macdanger2]

Definite black card but could Quinlivan have kept going instead of going down?

[Captain Obvious]

Mayo are the new Donegal. Won't get a sniff against Dublin but they're the only hope we have so we have to big them up. Steamrolling a Tipperary team who even by their own standards are having a terrible day at the office.

For as bad as Tipperary has been you are underating Mayo whom have the fitness and physicality to get a sniff of Dublin. Donegal have done nothing in the All-Ireland series for the last 5 years to get such hype.

[mup]

Mayo running away with this. Something needs to be done. It's not fair on Tipperary having to play this Mayo side.

Tipp should consider boycotting the All Ireland championship next year

And there we go. 

You're right it is ridiculous. 👍

Imagine calling for teams to boycott the championship because an opposition side is too good. It would be embarrassing and humiliating for that person/county

Yea stop being facetious.

[Schkite]

They're not missing much up front, but if they defend like this against the Dubs, then Mayo will be getting a trimming themselves

[Hound]

Kerry lads must be a bit embarrassed watching this. How did they not cruise through Munster?

They were beat by a woeful Cork side.

In monsoon weather conditions!

Fantastic for Tipp to win Munster. Downside is it cost us a great Mayo v Kerry semi final. But you gotta earn your place and Kerry didn't

Conditions were the same for both, did Cavan ruin a Dublin Donegal semi final?

I certainly didn't say that. But I do love watching Mayo v Kerry games, usually very exciting affairs with football played the way I like seeing it. But Kerry have only themselves to blame. They would beat Cork 9 times out of 10 but couldn't do it when it counted this year.

Tipp are good to watch too though. Doesn't look like they're lying down and they've had some bad breaks too.

Ok mate

Yeah, Dublin will eat us up if we're this loose at the back

You think anyone is marking O'Connor? Let's see how he plays next day.

They'll need the dipped headlights on soon

[Hound]

How bad would the fog need to get for a ref to abandon a game? Is there a distance the ref has to be able to see?
