Kerry win by a point, and the analysis is all about how much superior Kerry are. If Keegans shot was a foot to the left, the game was a draw, or if DOCs shot wasn't saved, it was a Mayo win. In either scenario the analysis would be completely different. It's just so lazy - winner is great, loser is bad.

Lazy everything, even Joanne Cantwell said 'Oisín McConville with Darragh'. Ffs it was on the same bloody channel the night before.

How about they got a better forward than yours, we keep that analysis straight forward and simple.

Not denying that at all

The football on display this weekend was seriously shocking. It's like watching basketball on grass

Weather conditions were poor, but Armagh certainly delivered long foot passes.

There is a definitely an unconscious bias in the sports media and especially in RTE about the natural genius of Kerry football. However one All Ireland in 12 years suggests something else.

Average Score

Armagh got about 15 seconds.

Doesn't help that RTE have a kerry pundit for most live games or highlights show.

And seem to be getting less coverage each week.  League Sunday is poor, not a good presenter or analysts, and definitely a disregard for northern teams.  Same with their GAA Podcast, usually a cursory mention of northern teams at best.

What little coverage there was of the game was nearly all Kildare too. You'd be forgiven for thinking they'd won the game.

Understatement she is to presenting what McQuillan is to refereeing.

Agreed, no mention of how useless the ref was (for both teams, backs weren't given a chance, touch a lad and it was a free in).

No mention of the kids coming on the field which forced the ref to blow early. Also no mention of cliffords phantom point.
They get momentum, they go mad, here they go

Nobody has complained about the result. Just pointing out how poor the RTE analysis is.
