Monaghan v Dublin AI Semi Final 15 July 2023

[Jonkunlon]

Ref using the screen to overrule that 45 was awesome. He's had a great game.

Feel Hurson has allowed Dublin to be more physical than Monaghan

He's had an almost flawless game. From the black card, the two balls touched on the ground and overruling the 45. I haven't seen a display of officiating in either code like it this season.

Tomas not sold on the Dubs by the sounds of it, think I'd agree with him, Monaghan faded in the last 15 after a great performance. Unfortunately for Derry I think that game would have knocked any lingering complacency out of Kerry too.

Hurson deserves to ref the final after that performance. Credit where it's due to the ref. They don't get enough praise when they do it right.

He's not allowed to use screen though??? Is he?

[AustinPowers]

Respect to Monaghan, they didn't resort to the dirty hits that Armagh likely would have in their place.

Was wondering when  it would come back to Armagh 

Was there  any rows on the hill today ?  If there was , no doubt it was  those pesky Armagh fans in  Dublin and  Monaghan jerseys

Did he get the decision right?

[Jell 0 Biafra]

Not if he's not allowed do it.

Though of course, justice was done.

It was tight for a long time and the scoreline wasn't a true reflection on the game. The Dubs will be better in 2 weeks.

Ye see this is what I don't get. Dublin were excellent, I don't know how much better they can play than that. Monaghan put it up to them and they came through, simple as that. Be interesting how the game goes tomorrow. I think it will be more of the same. Dubs and Kerry have got too much credit based on the QFs, and Derry and Monaghan not enough.

Gough gets the publicity but Hurson is probably the best referee in the game at the minute.

Thought the Dubs were very ordinary today, they looked toothless in attack and Fitzsimmons looks a shadow of his former self. Kerry will be happy looking at that match today.

I accept both your points. I'd rather a referee use his initiative and arrive at the right call. Fair play to him, it was cheeky.

Fitzy was excellent today, I thought.

Clifford will be licking his lips against Fitzsimmons.

Kerry also have weaknesses, if not on the scale of Dublin

Maybe so.  Kerry have to get there first though before we can see about that one.

[Derryman forever]

Monaghan really should be very proud of themselves.
They really gave it their all.
