Division one 2021

[Angelo]

Kerry got away with a level of aggression I don't think any other county in the country would be allowed to with Dublin in that second half today.

Could not understand why Comerford kept going for short kickouts and Dublin kept trying to run the ball out from the back when they were being pulled and dragged back until they lost the ball.

Good game. Dublin should have had the game dead in the first half when Kerry were trying to play open football, as soon as Kerry changed to bringing that bit of dirt into in the second half it was a lot more enjoyable.

Great comeback by kerry

Great game. Could you imagine a super 8's game 3 'neutral' venue with packed house. I don't like super 8's format anyway but this is the exact sort of game that should be neutral and not a croke park game. Thing is vast majority of fans from both sides I reckon would agree

You lost a fair amount of money today!

Concerning for Kerry to concede 4 goals against a Dub team that were nowhere near their best. O'Callaghan is unreal, defenders shite themselves when he gets the ball and his direct running is always a goal threat. Some handy scores missed by both sides.

Cluxton and Rock huge misses for the Dubs. Very impressed with Kerrys work rate up front think they won 2 or 3 turnovers in quick succession from the Dublin kickout and got scores.

Hopefully this Kerry team can keep progressing and give us a decent all ireland final.

Was glad to see that Kerry upped the aggression levels, they will have to compete physically if they want to have a chance of beating the Dubs in the championship.

I'm still not convinced about Kerry, they look defensively suspect and also overly dependant on one player, albeit an exceptional one and the Dubs brought Kerry back into it through their own mistakes.

Kerry play on the edge. Tradition gives them an entitlement to get away with it. Both teams will be happy with the result. Both would not have wanted to show to much of their hand today.

Cynical intensity from Galway, very much up for the match unlike lack posture Roscommon. The Galway side line very vocal, reffing the square ball goal.

Tell me about it. Had Clare backed so made a few quid back. Have Chelsea, Liverpool and Spurs backed for the soccer

Goes to show how much a team can up their game when the backs are to the wall.

Kerry are defensively suspect but so are Dublin, Dublin's game seems increasingly to revolve around long spells of possession, it's becoming a fear based game and fairly robotic, and the maverick streaks are steadily becoming less and less

And to be honest Kerry's defensive problems seem more fixable

McCaffrey provided a maverick streak and if you take Small out as well - that looked like a nasty hamstring injury - you take a lot of the driving force from the back out of the team

Really only Con provides that x-factor now, the younger players coming in seem more robotic and system driven

Dublin didn't have a fitness advantage today, when you take a fitness advantage out of the equation they are extremely beatable

No major surprise, the way they protected their goal was impressive, a part from our starting full forward line we were poor. Galway by far the better team. Roscommon have no defence and cant tackle, porous. Hopefully Poulter can do something in the next month.

You backed Clare away from home to Kildare?

Tell me about it. Had Clare backed so made a few quid back. Have Chelsea, Liverpool and Spurs backed for the soccer

[Rossfan]

I doubt Poacher will do much.
A gang of lads playing football at a high level for years will hardly be changed into aggressive man marking tacklers in 5 or 6 weeks
We have finished bottom of the table no matter what happens next week.

Not sure how that 2nd Galway goal stood, a clear square ball and was only two points between the teams before that goal. The Roscommon performance probably deserved the margin of defeat though and in regards to relegation it looks like a matter of which team will join Roscommon in division 2 next year.
