Dublin v Mayo 2020 All-Ireland final

[Angelo]

What's the mood like in Mayo?

Is it much more downbeat than other years where they were in an All Ireland final.

The hurling last week had a very damp feel about it.

Raring to go 😁

I remember the excitement when Mayo reached the all Ireland final in 2012.
What a strange ride it has been since.

David Hickey comes across as a right arrogant p***k. I remember well the day he rugby tackled a protester on the pitch during the All Ireland final. Think it was 1975 or 1976.

Colm O'Rourke just said on The Saturday Game that Peter Canavan picked the ball off the ground in 1995.

Was it not Sean Mc Laughlin?

How does he get a gig like this?

Surely Brian Howard will start. Better footballer than Small or McDaid.

McLaughlin got the score but think Canavan was penalised (incorrectly) for playing the ball on the ground.

O'Rourke lets his bias cloud him again and again when it comes to Tyrone. He's an embarrassment.

Unpopular opinion coming up.

I think Mayo will do it.

Wouldn't expect so. Imagine Dublin will go with what they have and both Mannion and Howard on standby to change the game.

It could be ugly or Mayo could do it. You just never know with Mayo. I just don't think this Mayo team will have the physicality of previous teams to ask that question, they are light in the middle compared to previous teams of theirs.

The reason Mayo have caused Dublin so much problems in that past is that they've have played their own game, done it at a high tempo, showed Dublin no respect and got wired in. That has put Dublin off their rhythm, Dublin like to be patient, keep ball and create the high percentage chance before they execute. Mayo will play the same football but I don't think they have the same quality of player they had 3/4/5 years ago. The likes of Higgins, Boyle, Vaughan, SOS, Andy Moran have all been phased out, a few other guys are getting on and they are also missing the likes of Doherty and Harrison with injuries.

Dublin by 8.

Thanks. I was wrong.
