Derry last goal probably a square ball, but the Umpire raised his flag super quick.

The black for Molloy in the Galway v Derry game was debatable. Trips on purpose are a black card offence not sure can you say that about Molloys tackle/foul.

Not sure how the ref deemed it as a clear goal scoring opportunity when there was a covering defender and the Derry player was kicking for a point. Galway with half of their team out injured should draw plenty of encouragement to be as competitive as they were against the form team in division 1.


League final could well be the repeat of Division 2 last year. The relegation battle is intriguing with five teams still seeking points to avoid the trap door.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

He was clearly in the square. Thought it strange that no one questioned it

He definitely wasn't!

Looks pretty clear that he's outside the square when the ball leaves the other player's hands.

It wasn't a set play, so he's allowed to enter the square before the ball does.

Speaking of dodgy goals surely Roscommon's shouldn't have stood. Keeper had the ball in his hands and the forward pushed him over the line ? Didnt matter to the result but it was a free out all day

He definitely wasn't!

It's not clear at all where the line is, but it looks like he is outside what we think is the square when the ball is played in.

With eyesight like that you should take up reffing.

Dublin @ 6/5 to win is massively overpriced!!!

I really hope we can get a win but based on how Dublin and ourselves played last weekend I just can't see it. I thought we were quite poor against a very average Galway side and could have lost only for certain decisions going against them. Celtic Park is a factor of course but I just think the Dubs would have to be favourites given how they dismantled Kerry last week.

The game was basically over after 20 mins!

Dublin have 4 points after 4 matches but one of those wins was against Kerry. They may not want Derry to develop any notions.

Going by the bookies and their punters they think history will repeat itself with Derry to beat Dublin in round 5 by one point.  Derry at home as a team should defend a lot better than Kerry did in Croke park last weekend but I'm sure Dublin will be determined to not allow what happened in Celtic Park last year be repeated.

Injuries to key derry players will be a huge factor. If McKinless and Conor Doherty are out, that's a huge swing factor.
It would also be a huge step up for Scullion in goals.

Derry started the year on 9/1 but are now priced at 6/1. Kerry and Dublin are neck and neck at 11/4

Injuries won't help Derry's cause, I'm still expecting a good competitive battle between the two in what could well be the dress rehearsal for the league final at the end of March.
