[bookies don't ride around on bicycles.]

Like Dublin in the Leinster final or Kerry in the Munster final that was a very comfortable provincial final win for Donegal. The four favourites won their provincial titles which goes to show again that bookies don't ride around on bicycles.

The 2014 minor All Ireland final was Kerry v Donegal it shouldn't come as any surprise if that's the same U21 final pairing in a few weeks.

Are you taking the piss or are you not aware of how many bookies have hit the wall in recent years?

The bookies i require my odds from have a healthy surplus per year. Now run along onto some other thread where someone bored actually might entertain you some more with your with your know it all and tedious attitude

With the current Dublin side we're seeing that the Kerry-Tyrone debate of the last decade was a bit matterless. Neither would hack it against them.

The current Dublin side were beaten by a Kerry team today that aren't a patch on the previous Kerry AI winning teams or the Tyrone teams of 03,05,08. Time for you to move on or hack into something else.

Brolly on fine form tonight

Embarrassed himself again but it doesn't matter so long as the people are talking about him. A total attention seeker 

As expected the referee was clearly out of his depth and his assistants weren't much better.

When will the best officials be allocated to the top games?

What game were you watching where the referee and his assistants out of their depth? and who are the best officials??

The Ref and assistants were good in the Dublin v Kerry final today they played a huge part in allowing a good game flow and thats what any follower of this sport wants to see from officials.

Moran is a force of nature!

In todays "modern" football it was great to see a old fashioned traditional midfielder produce a man of the match performance.

And just like that a Dublin goal!

That double goal save could be a huge moment in the game.

Is James O'Donoghue on the bench?

He wasn't named on the bench during the week.

That was very good. Didn't see what Connolly did for his black but some great scores, proper defending and good intensity.

Pulled his marker by the back of his neck to ground. Real brainless moment from Connolly. If a national final between Kerry Dublin didn't have good intensity the game would be fecked altogether.

Hugely disappointing opening 15 minutes with both teams dropping back and creating banks of defenders making any kind of attacking play difficult. Have we killed the sport altogether?

Don't know about Kildare but this is the 3rd year running that Galway have played with this system of play. So far they won Connacht for the first time since 2008 and promoted back to div 1 for the first time since 2011 so under Kevin Walsh I don't see Galway changing tactics anytime soon.

What's the point of playing the division 3,4 finals in a empty Croke park?. A double header in somewhere like Tullamore would make more sense.

I'd reckon Liverpool will have a champions league/top 4 place secured with a game or two to spare. The season objective for klopp and his side will be achieved comfortably yet one repetitive and loopy lad on here will be calling for a sacking regardless   

That's the Herrins guaranteed a Semi spot so

[resources to Kerry]

Mayo maybe depressed but Kerry are going about the business of challenging the Dubs rather than moaning about them. Kerry are winning minor All Irelands, club titles, Hogan cups and probably an U21 shortly. Perhaps it's time that other counties similar in size a resources to Kerry got on with it?

The Kerry brand name is huge, they can make one trip overseas and rake in the type of cash that the majority of counties can only dream of.

The school and minor AI success of the last few years is thanks mostly to the huge cash pumped into their development and coaching at grass roots level and again the type of money a lot of counties couldn't afford.
