Both were clear and obvious black cards. Unfortunately the ref only penalised 1. Kerry teams do tend to get these breaks

Fair play to Dingle but that's an all time collapse from Boden that they may regret for a long, long time.

strolling through Leinster didnt help them - Dingle are battled hardened.

Having said all that they were home and dry but couldn't manage it out. Completely lost their way in midfield and 1/2 backs

Great fightback by Dingle but how was that last free missed?

FT Ballyboden 1-20 Dingle 1-20 extra time coming up.

Was never a foul either.

if anything it was a free out for a pull back. Glad that didnt decide it.

Dingle left a few scores behind them near the end too

He blew the whistle and the Boden lads stopped accordingly. One of the defenders stuck hands up at it half-heartedly. You've no idea what would have happened if he hadn't blown the whistle, same way you've no idea what he blew the whistle for.

And he took 7 steps.

Are you in the ref's union. We don't know what would have happened but we do know that the ref got a big call badly wrong

game over if it wasnt already

Boden should be out of sight here.

They are

Its not just that they've lost his first 3 games but how they lost them. He probably should be sacked tonight

ON the semi final its Brigits 8/11 and Scotstown 6/4

Scotstown will have to come back down to earth quickly but carry huge experience this time. They've come through open games and battles. They've now been taken to ET 3 times but in each of those times they were caught up rather than doing the catching. They even have a penalties win. Closing out games is a problem but they're still winning. I'll have a nibble at 6/4

No issue with the time but what about the overcarrying. Scotstown will be raging

5 at the minimum maybe being generous to Athy. Christ they are poor. Don't think Ballyboden are amazing either

the transfers give them a big lift. 3 starters i think ? Poor first goal to concede but the goalie did redeem himself with a great save near the end of the first. Athy totally lost their way in the 2nd half so its hard to know how good Ballyboden are.

For what should be a very experienced team Scotstown appeared very naive at times today. Can't see them beating Kilcoo based on that.

I thought Newbridge would have given Kilcoo a serious rattle, Winter football
is tough though.

Kilcoo mullered them last year. Not sure Scotstown will have anything new for them this time.

EDIT: Sorry, read that as Scotstown

They have the 3 minors that they have brought through for starters. I think this is as strong has Scotstown have been but as a few others have said they just struggle to close games out. They made loads of bad decisions today that they got away it. Kilcoo wont be as accommodating

great game and makes for a great final. Scotstown have a lot of cleaning up to do but i think they just about deserved it today

Scotsotwn managed that half well. Now they have the wind

scotstown blew it. Some bad decisions near the end

how far out was beggan for that 2 pointer
