Ridiculous that Murphy won't be punished further for that.

Long trip to Armagh zapped the energy out of Kerry is the excuse used by Jack O'Connor

He hit P McGurk a fist to the ribs against Derry in Ballybofey last yr, and was lucky he only got a yellow then.

Was genuinely thinking that watching them today, the match in Armagh was played at a serious intensity, bound to have taken it out of them.

Clifford and O'Shea totally off it, a free from not far outside the arc and Clifford barely hit the penalty spot, totally unlike them.

Will be bad news for football if Donegal win the All Ireland this year. Handpass after handpass.. It's really boring. 

Another one of those chaps fooled into thinking Kerry are a great kick passing team?  in reailty the majority of their scores comes from through the hands football.

Spillane referred to Kerry as the kicking kings last week.

They have that label the reality is different about them now.

Spillane I might add was one that pointed out about Kerry's through the hands football last year after the All-Ireland final and highlighted how five Kerry players didn't even kick the ball once during that final

I find Sean O'Shea  goes missing in games for long periods . Very quiet today and last week in  Armagh too

[Wildweasel74]

He be better in the full forward line, and let P Clifford play 11, They be different once D O'Connor bck in midfield.

Dry enough oul handshake there 😆

Yeah, Jack didn't look happy, feeling a bit humiliated maybe.

Kind of Roy Keane / Mick Mc Carthy hamdshake.

Jack showed no humility. Wanted to get away asap.

Could they not have rested all week.
- just done some recovery and tactical
stuff?

Soccer games have more intensity yet they play every week so I don't buy that.

You forgot to mention soccer lads are professional.

[JPO]

Were are always told how Gaelic players train like professionals so what the problem? there are long periods in games when players are only walking around or jogging around  doing nothing really anyway.

Out of curiosity, does anyone on here have a genuine case for retaining league finals?

It just seems bizarre to me that every year we talk about how good, how competitive, how unpredictable our national leagues are. And then the league finals come along and without fail, drain the absolute f**king life out of us.

[Wildweasel74]

Think gaelic footballers actually work! Well u 3 good finals and 1 bad one

He can be though as the officials got it wrong
