just wondering what's the view on relative merits of both teams?

Tyrone won 5 Ulster titles, 3 AI's and 2 league titles over a 10 year period. 2001-2010
Dublin won 5 Leinster titles, 3 AI's and 3 league titles over a 5 year period. 2011-2015

This thread will only go one way.

Basically..........
That group of Tyrone players are the greatest sportsmen the world has ever seen.
Give them all hurls an they would have beaten any Kilkenny team from any era. Put 11 of them on a soccer pitch and they would haven beaten any Brazil team,same with the All Blacks if you put them on a Rugby pitch.
Brian Dooher would have won the F1 Championship blindfolded and Owen Mulligan would have won the snooker world championship with one arm tied behind his back.
Ali wouldn't have had a chance against any of them.
They were and still are the greatest ever and Tyrone is the centre of the known universe.

Ye can talk about titles and this and that, but when it all boils down to it, if the two teams lined up against each other both on their best day, Tyrone woulda beat them out the gate.

Can anywhere in the world ( apart from Cork) compare to Tymoan for non stop self praise?

I think the Rossies did a good job of this earlier in the year, that U21 team were world beaters and sure, your seniors were all Ireland contenders. Imagine if you did actually win something!
