With the help of God we'll put it up to the Rossies and lose by about 6 points. Sligo to run Dublin to 4 points.
That will put us out of our misery.

Its the perfect game for Kildare and I don't think they will have expected to get another crack at Dublin until next season. The Dubs look like a stale, ageing side with injuries mounting up and are extremely boring to watch. Listening to Dessie Farrell in post match interviews is like watching paint dry and the Dubs are playing in the same manner. If Kildare have a bit of belief they can beat Dublin this time around. Expect another arm wrestle of a match.

Kildare could and maybe should be capable of making their mark at some point. Meath too, hopefully, will bounce back. You'd have very little still if you put the rest of us together. It just doesn't work and there's no way nowadays of achieving sustained parity. I don't know why it's acceptable that Wicklow have never won a Leinster Championship or that the rest of us should soldier on. It's not even sport in all honesty
Antrim in Ulster also have almost no chance of winning Ulster
Meath and Kildare have been a disgrace the last 20 years. No other word for it
Exactly. See millions pumped into your neighbours while you get some spare change. They are so high up on the throne they cant even see it.
Kildare weren't shy in spending either. Sean Johnson investment was a wise one considering the up surge in kildare hurley in recent years.

Dubs look sure to be without Kilkenny and Byrne, and probably McCarthy too. Jack and Murchan both have hamstring problems, neither were togged yesterday, so probably not going to be ready next week. But maybe some changes will liven things up.
Costello was top drawer yesterday. Being dropped recently seems to have given him the jolt required. Con doing reasonably well. Mannion has been disappointing, not got to the pace of intercounty yet. Bugler playing very well, but Fenton and Howard both miles below their usual standard.
A lot will depend on what Kildare shows up. Hope they get the pick of the dressing rooms and control over music played on the tannoy. Ryan knows how much an advantage that is!
The Kilkenny GAA couldn't afford a tannoy system because the GAA had to pay for yet another GDA for Dublin. The GAA can't be having them only drawing with Roscommon.
I guess your knowledge is zero. Explain how the games development officer funding works - who are they? What's their average age? Who do they train? What do the clubs contribute?
You do know that there's not an iota of a chance that any of the Dublin players were trained by these partially funded development officers for a competitive game.
What's more crucial to the success of the Dubs compared to the perennial underachievement of the Lilies? - development officers who don't train the players, choice of identical dressing room, or music over the tannoy? These are the key questions that need answered.
There's going to be fantastic scenes when Kildare finally get one over the Dubs. A pity they let Davy Burke go, but still, it's there for them this time.

are tony brosnan and darragh moynihan the sons of eoin brosnan and seamus moynhihan?
Yes, Eoin Brosnan and Seamus Moynihan got married in 2016, when Eoin was 16 and Seamus was 43. Some people said eoin was too young to get married but love conquers all.
Straight away they had a baby boy Tony Brosnan-Moynihan and 2 years later had Darragh Moynihan-Brosnan.

Between 1891 and 2002 Dublin won 42 Leinster titles
Between 2005 and now Dublin won 18.
The difference is competition.
Some day we hope to overtake Kerry's 82 Munster titles. Be a while coming though.

Dublin Croke Park advantage needs addressing, not that it would stop them much.
Surely they aren't going to get 2 home matches in Sam Maguire groups? Even Leinster semi final has no business in Croker.
I would not have QFs in Croker either if they are
Did they get their dressing room of choice today? And I presume they wamed up at Hill 16 end.
Although disappointed to hear Louth also got a Hogan Stand dressing room, which is identical in all respects to the one the Dubs had. The Cusack Stand ones are a little bit smaller, but Louth didn't have to suffer that.
At least it'll be Kildare with all these crucial advantages in the round robin. Maybe you'll comment on the game, but given you never go to any of the games, I'd say that's unlikely and you'll be your usual bitter self. Still no positive comment about the U20s. You didn't even watch the game.
And here's me thinking the dressing rooms were allocated alphabetically.
Yep, they are.
Hogan Stand 1 and 2 are identical. The Cusack Stand ones are also identical to each other but slightly smaller than the Hogan Stand ones. When there is just one game on, both teams get the Hogan Stand dressing rooms. When there are two games on, the teams playing in the first game get the Cusack Stand dressing rooms.
