Lol. You gotta love his optimism though.

When Kerry are mood to kick points like that, hard to live with them. He wasn't MOTM but there's no player in Ireland even close to David Clifford. Hard luck to Armagh - worthy champions and always bring great colour to any occasion.

Good to know in the group of death that Derry took all with them lol

Which is sad to see

Fair play to Meath despite not playing their best....there's an all Ireland in that team maybe not this year but in the coming years.
been saying this all year. Youngest team in quarterfinals. This will all add to them going forward next year and the year after. Best all round players since 96/04. Future looks very bright. I believe will dominate Leinster over next 5 years with our main opposition been Offaly. Louth I think will slip back , dubs are in rebuild mode. And Kildare are a basket case. We are the coming team with minor all ire winners and Leinster u20s yet to feature.
The future is bright the future is green and gold.

How many of that 2021 minor team now playing senior?

Quote from: SouthDublinBro on June 29, 2025, 05:39:21 PMDick Clerkin was right about this Armagh team.

What did he say about them?

Weakest team to ever win the AI.

Yeah because  Monaghan is overrun with All Ireland medals  ::)

Got exactly what we deserved out of that game. Kerry very deserving winners.

They're better than the Tyrone team that won the 2021 All Ireland*

Seriously, just pipe the f**k down. When it comes to hubris, you live by the sword and die by the sword.

Quote from: Blowitupref on June 29, 2025, 05:44:20 PMFT Kerry 0-32 Armagh 1-21.  Who would have guessed that margin of victory?

I called a 4 point win for Kerry so not too far off 😅

Kerry would have won semi final last year save touch of bad luck.


Dont think anyone would begrudge possibly the hardest won All Ireland for McGeeney last year.

If rules had held they'd been in much stronger position to defend the title.

As such the rules reward people who can play football, not athletes.

Must go and see who it was that unequivocally declared Rian the best footballer in the country about 6 weeks back.

Wildweasel74

They not the weakest team to win an All-Ireland, they won a bad final last year, but showed all the right stuff this year.The goalkeeping issue they need to focus on. Plus they changed their midfield past 2 game. The defence next yr need major surgery. Great going forward, poor at actual 1 on 1 defending.

One thing is clear after the weekend: teams better start planning for rapid changes of approach when their kick out gets locked down.
