How could anyone be confident of beating Dublin for fk sake. They are in my opinion the greatest team of all time - going for a 5th Sam in seven years. Tyrone had a class team ten years ago and still got chinned the odd time against the likes of Down (08) Derry (06) even in National league semi final against the likes of Laois.
This current Dublin team hardly ever lose, they are an unbelievable team. One major loss to Kerry in a league final and that's about it.
If we were to beat them it would be Mickeys greatest triumph!

Calm down, they have been the best team in a poor era. Compare a forward line of Cavlan, McGuigan, Dooher, O'Neill, Canavan, Mulligan and not one of the current Dublin forward line would get in. In defence would anyone get in infront of Gormley, Ricey, Jordan or Cormac or Big Joe? Do they have anyone who would get into get into a full forward line of McDonnell, Clarke and McConville? Or Gooch, Star and O'Donoghue? Or Sheehy, Liston, Egan? This team has thrived at a time when preparation and financial differences have created huge gaps between the big counties and the rest. I'd doubt if the current Dublin team would have coped with any of the Armagh, Kerry or Tyrone teams of the mid noughties, never mind Kerry of the 70a and 80s and Dubs of 70s. Let's not forget that 2 ogs bailed them out last year. They are a good team in a poor era - nothing more! We have nothing to fear.
That was never a square ball!!

Your head is far up your arse that I can't be bothered putting a constructive arguement against one of the rose tinted coloured posts on this board in a long time :o

i wonder if you were picking a combined tyrone dublin team how many tyrone players would get in. i reckon tyrone would get harte in instead of mccaffrey on this years form only. not one other defender cluxton a shoe in. fenton kilkenny  be in the middle. im going to squeeze mattie donnelly in up front at the expense of con o callaghan though i feel o callaghan will be a superstar. thats leaving connolly mccauley flynn brogan and davy byrne as my first 5 subs. 2 0ut of 20. any one want to argue for more?

Harte, Donnelly, McNamee, McCann, Sudden, Colm Cavanagh and Morgan would all get in for me.

Colm cav is a contender for footballer of the year. He would walk into the Dublin team.

You would just squeeze Donnelly in ahead of O'Callaghan, come on! A double All-Star and you would just squeeze him in at the expense of a young lad just starting out in county football? Colm Cavanagh, Sean Cavanagh, Sludden, Harte, McCann all start in a Dublin team for me. I believe you could argue for Morgan, McCarron, McNamee as well.

Not much wrong with that.  Dublin are over rated; Tyrone can beat them, with the run of the green, and a fair ref

Don't know where people are putting in Philly Mcmahon?? If any of use have been watching games this year he has been getting a run around. Jack mccarron roasted him on Sunday if it would not of been for clucko he would have got at least a goal to go along with his points. Overrated big time as a man marker

He is a fair bit better than our man markers to be honest. Mc crory is not good enough and mc carron has lost a yard. Always seemed to be a yard behind clarke on saturday.  Just my opinion mind you. I'm assuming you agree with the rest of the selection or do you only worry about corner backs

Edit

When I say mc crory isn't good enough it's obviously relative. I mean, he's better than me

Is he ? How do you see he is better than McNamee and McCarron? McCrory doesn't even man mark, do you follow Tyrone ? Thought McNamee and McCarron where as good as ever on sat and I know a lot of people would agree with me on that. Tiernan mccann not in your half back line either and dean rock would be no where near my full forward line, only thing the man does is take frees. Poor from play imo
