If Kerry had any little niggling doubts in their minds in the early stages of this one, Cavan offered them ample benign convalescence with a string of unforced schoolboy errors that allowed them rack up some scores and clear all the dirty petrol. Some of the fumblesome execution with the limited possession we've eked out is laughable, Junior B-type stuff. Ref seems to happy to give his harshest decisions against the underdog too, a typical GAA ref trait, but it's not a factor overall.

There's a lot of soul-searching and a massive reset needed in Cavan but I have no confidence it's going to happen.

Did you miss Meath 1-22 v Kerry 0-16 match last week?  In the Munster championship they just about got over the line after extra time v Cork.

Would you classify meath and cork as decent and AI contenders? They're middle of the road div2 teams.

The amount of bitterness towards Meath is astounding. Not only are they the most impressive and improved team of the year, they play a lovely brand of football. But I guess those gimpys can't get over Geraghty and Giles etc. sad

A goal for Cavan 50 minutes played Kerry 2-15 Cavan 1-9.   Two pointer for Cavan and another one point.    2-15 to 1-12
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Meath yes. As proved by beating both Dublin and Kerry. Actually any div 1 team we played this year were no great shakes. Maybe div 1 ain't as cracked up as some make it. Btw Meath only just lost out on promotion to a poor Roscommon side who are gone already and mighty mayo got beat by Cavan ffs.

I'll reserve judgement on Meath until after next week. Remember they couldn't beat Louth or a poor Roscommon team.

Inconsistent year for Meath hard to know what to make of them.  Didn't gain promotion or win Leinster final.  Topped their table and reached the last 8 of the championship with year highlights wins over Dublin and kerry. How they do next weekend will be interesting in a do or die tie.

Haven't tuned in since HT and I see this score   :o

What's going on here

Edit: Aaand then Clifford gets a 3rd, I jinxed the comeback

omagh_gael

This game isn't over, Kerry will not be winning the all Ireland. Too soft in the defence and little to nothing outside of Clifford.

Ref destroying Cavan and McVeety had a certain 2 pointer disallowed

Just four points in then a David Clifford goal against the run of play. Kerry 3-16 Cavan 1-15.  Paddy Lynch with a two pointer gap back to five points again.  10 minutes to play.

The commentary is absolutely rubbish

gallsman

Simply incredible stuff there from the Cavan corner back after they turned over Clifford.

Clifford complains to ref with verbals.
Cavan plays goad.
Ref sides with kerry.
Shock.
