    Two points behind against that wind isn't bad.

    Galway were never going to be anything but ultra defensive after the embarrassment of last week.

    Also, can someone get a razor to Davy Bynres head please. That's just unacceptable for this team.

    Cluxtons kicking has been very bad at times.

    Where giving away the ball unnecessarily far to often should be ahead with amount of ball we have had.

    I think the wind is a big factor in Cluxton's kick-outs. Dublin conceding a lot of frees, their discipline is a concern.

    Ya im actually more pleased with that then I was at half time in previous game. The wind will hopefully aid us in second half but we need to cut out the sloppy passing. Think we're shooting ourselves here more than Galway being better team.

    Ridiculous barnet. On another note of male grooming i wouldn't like to bump into Howard and Cian O Sullivan in a bar. I'd be forgiven for thinking i'd wandered into a dodgy shebeen in downtown Tijuana.

    The discipline issue is something that's gotten worse since Galvin left. There where always little bits and bobs there but it's every game now.

    I'm sporting longer hair than Byrne these days, bit annoyed to see GAA players adopting it, usually by the time the Gah lads have caught up and are rocking a look its time to move on :D

    Dubs to win 3/10.
    Dubs -2 8/11.

    He's emulating his predecessor Seán Murray

    I remember a few country lads wearing long hair down the years. An Offaly hurler in the 90s. Seanie Flood Wexford hurler. A Waterford hurler Crowley i think. Didnt Cheddar Plunket have a mad barnet? The wing back for Corofin the most recent one. A horrible look. Never had long hair myself. Short back and sides the Dublin look :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,277 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    ****ing bad passing really starting to piss me off now.

    No way was that a free out, a coming together and Conroy down like Neymar. Galway players at it again as I type.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,277 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Where handing this to Galway on a plate.

    That ref is not giving Dublin a thing today either. Every 50/50 has went Galways favour.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,500 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    Good refereeing there, caught another dive, blows for Dublin, Point taken.

    I swing between a skinhead and long hair. Also, I've always wanted that tracksuit top :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,277 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Great finish !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,534 ✭✭✭Chalk McHugh


    Bugler what a goal!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,500 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    Jesus, massive swing last 3 minutes, great goal Dubs up by 1, 5 point swing in 5 minutes.

    To be fair that is a quality jacket.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 154 ✭✭Nexytus


    Mullins had long, flowing hair. Then suddenly he was bald.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,775 ✭✭✭✭Slattsy


    Good man Bugler. He's coming on big time, the size of him.

    Bugler has been great since he's come on. One the highlights of the league for Dublin.

    Like I said early on we have been much better today but it's the silly stupid mistakes that are holding us back.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,775 ✭✭✭✭Slattsy


    **** sake Costello, that's two awful wides.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,534 ✭✭✭Chalk McHugh


    Costelloe with a couple of poor wides. The second one was embarrassingly wide.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,500 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    Wasteful there, plenty of support players in better positions to shoot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,500 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    Yet another dive. Fûck that


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,277 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Costello getting plenty of ball just needs to be smarter with it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,534 ✭✭✭Chalk McHugh


    Lovely strike Paddy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,500 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    Bad wide, 4 points up going into the last 10 would have been nice


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,534 ✭✭✭Chalk McHugh


    Galway have no answer this half . Another score or two will finish them off.

    Ridiculous how refs continuously fall for it against us. They can't wait to blow up.
