I think it's 50/50.
Whoever does the more things right on the day to prevail.
Is it finish on the day?
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

I was really impressed by how many big moments St Brigids had yesterday and often from different players. Goal lie clearances, really clean hand in and out tackles down one end and then some great scores down the other end.

How far off 60 minutes is Paul Geaney will have a massive bearing. Really looking forward to it and even as a Linster native was delighted to see a Dublin superclub fall off.
them mysterons are always killing me but im grand after a few days.sickenin aul dose all the same.

"I think this set of players have something to fight for because they probably could have won a final a couple of years ago. That has been foremost in their minds as well.

"They're a very intelligent and driven group. They were disappointed last year in the county championship, but they really want to put that (All-Ireland final) right. They were in a winning position, albeit a great Conor Glass goal near the end, so they want to try and put that right."


St Brigid's were brilliant in defence on Sunday and that proved to be the bedrock for their semi-final win.

"Some of the blocks were outstanding," added Cunningham. "It was a tremendous defensive display, but also by our forwards who worked back. That's the way the game has gone, you have to be able to play as both an attacker and defender now."

Limiting Rory Beggan to just one point – he had scored 0-11 from placed balls in the Ulster final – was also a key part of St Brigid's game plan

Brigids 8/13
Daingean 6/5

It's Dingle. What's with the Daingean thing?

Would have made Dingle slight favourites based on the weekend myself but it's going to be a tight game.
