    The dubs look physically bigger, what is the reason for that? Doesn’t everyone have dedicated strength and condition coaches? Genuine question.

    Cavan have the ex London Irish s&c man since 2018. So there should be no difference in conditioning.

    Cavan have done more in 15 minutes than Meath did in 70 mins. Just shows you how embarrassing Meath were that day.

    I fear they'll run out of gas.

    Thought Kilkenny was a bit eager there, definitely a goal chance if he drives forward.

    Ah yes McStay, that well-known soccer saying: "when you have the ball, you give it away again".

    I hate Dublin with a passion but Ciaran Kilkenny is a joy to watch. Best player in the country over the last 5 years.

    Wasn't a deliberate pull down. Cooper seemed to lose his footing.

    A bigger pick of phenomenal athletes.
    S&C work likely started at a younger age at a higher quality.
    You'll also notice that Dublin players tend to get bigger the more years they're involved in the setup, it takes time to add muscle mass, and I would suspect a lot of the Cavan player haven't been doing an equal level of S&C work and if they have, they likely haven't been doing it as long.

    You could write a book on the one liners that GAA commentators have come out with over the years.

    Cavan using tactical fouling quite a lot when the Dubs get around 55 meters out from their goal..slows up play, takes the impotence out of the Dubs attack and too far out for a shot at goal.
