Mayo v Dublin: AISF21 (Saturday 14th August)

[tyrone08]

Wonder if the gaa will take action against small. Actually I know the answer will be no but the ref missed a red card offence resulting in a player with a broken jaw.

That Dublin team has been getting away with cynical play for years. Bad enough about the funding, home venue every game etc but to add in favouritism from the ref no wonder they went unbeaten for years. Christ it took some serious fouling for the ref to give out a few cards when the game was almost over.

Last night reminded me of the Dubs in the bad old days of the Pillar era when the likes of Whelo would just bust some man straight from the the throw-in and get away with it.

History repeating ?
On August 18, 1985, John Finn's jaw was broken in an off-the-ball incident during the All-Ireland football semi-final between Mayo and Dublin

Small should be suspended. Whatever suspension Diarmuid O'Connor got for his elbow against Galway that got him a red card would be fair enough.

If we are looking for more recent comparisons then whatever suspension was applied to Niall Morgan who wasn't sent off for breaking Paddy Andrews jaw last season

[Eire90]

Last nights result makes next years championship more interesting from a storyline perspective the whole can the dubs bounce back and regain the title thing.

Last time Dublin lost regularly. So was it always there?

Dubs lost their cool, then the plot, then the game

100% agree with your last paragraph. Apparently one of the Dublin players spat in the face of one of the Mayo players in the tunnel after the game as well. Hope he hasn't Covid if true.

Apparently Kilkenny lost his shit in the dressing room. Called Dessie Farrell an imposter and fanny-pad and told him to fcuk off back to milking a living from the GPA. Gravy train heading south.

[ONeill]

How many Dublin players were on the field at the end? 12 or 13?

13. Should've been 12 but actually 14 if you count the ref

[tyrone08]

Sunday game showing a few more strikes by the small brothers. Absolute tramps, closed fist off the ball strikes.

who was spitting? find it hard to believe as dublin headed back into the dressing rooms while mayo stayed on the pitch a while after

[Halfquarter]

Ach I really hope he's ok for the final and it's not a broken jaw.  How the ref let play continue I do not know.
I remember Dublin emptying Peter Crowley with a late hit in the last play of the semi-final a few years ago and the ref ignored it that day as well and it swung the game. 
Yesterday was ridiculous, the ref actually kept looking back, it was clear McLaughlin hit the ground like a sack of spuds, but he let Dublin if for a goal chance anyway.

Disgusting piece of thuggery from Small,double broken jaw for McLaughlin, will miss the All Ireland.

As for McStay not calling it out, he's gone way down in my estimation.
