    McDonald Vs. Moynighan
    McGarrity Vs. Darragh ó Sé is the big duel, I think. I know that Donaghy versus Heaney is impostant, but Donaghy can't do anything at full-forward if the ball isn't coming into him regularly.

    This duel could be the winning and loosing of the match, itself and whoever wins here will (or at least should) be able to feed their forward lines with more ball.

    Exactly what i think

    Dont think Donaghy will have as big an impact on the game as he did previously, some other player(s) will shine in his place (hopefully):)

    I would say McGarrity Vs. Darragh ó Sé, but all of them are crucial in all reality. It's very hard to call it, really.

    definately Dara v Ronan.
    However second to this would be connor and Ciaran against their markers.
    Its important that Ronan gets the ball to supply it to the forward. but its also key that both connor and ciaran get the better of the kerry markers so they can score.

    Has to be Mortimer & O'Sea, Mortimer is responsible for 40% of mayo scores !!

    O'Sea has singlehandedly lifted kerry on numerous occasions and is one of the few Kerry players who fights on his back.

    Mortimer will have to maintain a similar scoring rate to give Mayo any chance, with that he needs to give O'Sea a tough day at the office and tie him up.

    O'Sea is not really a man-marker but he is going to need to bring his A game

    I think it'll be none of those.
    Darragh O Se v McGarrity will break even and it'll be decided by
    Brosnan v Nallen and
    Gooch v Geraghty

    You are forgetting Alan Dillon, McDonald and others on the Mayo team who are capable of scoring. Mortimer will need to work hard on the day, but I can still see him doing well in the Final.

    As most people have been saying, the important thing is not to stop Donaghy, but to stop the ball getting into him in the first place. Donaghy is dangerous, both in himself and his ability to feed the other forwards. The thing Mayo have to do is to keep the minimum amount of ball getting in towards the Kerry forwards. On that basis, it is the midfield area that will be critical.

    Might be an obvious thing to say but it will come down to management.
    Who is the better tactician on the day and which manager uses the bench better.

    McGarrity Vs. Darragh ó Sé
    Donaghey against Heaney for me. Keep Donaghey quiet and Kerry's main tactic is gone.
