I have 1 spare ticket in the hogan 326. Dm me if anyone is after a ticket

Tyrone absolutely destroyed today, but its no surprise given they have been bang average all year, but make no mistake the media will big-up Kerry once more and will be heralding them as standout favourites once again.

Likes of Anthony Moyles & Enda Varley look rather silly right now after that result.

Armagh and Monaghan very exciting. McManus is an absolutely elite player. He is a once off.

On the special match train tomorrow, leaves at 7.20pm, if we go to penos not a hope of making it, even extra time would be pushing it, ridiculous time for departure considering its a match special

MacDanger

Anyone with a couple of spare juvenile tickets?

ging around Heuston for the night.

I believe they will delay the train if this happens. It happened last year to account for the Kerry v Mayo game being delayed (due to the Armagh v Galway game going to penalties). Last thing CIE want is a few thousand irate supporters hanging around Heuston with no way home.

No injury Rumours for a change

I've a level of confidence in this team beating Dublin that I have not had in a long time.

Now it's not a huge deal of confidence but it's there all the same.

I think Dublin are the perfect team to play our natural fast running, long passing game against.

We have spent weeks in the doldrums trying to break down these blanket defenses, now it's time to get back to normal.

It's great to see that the management have done something to address the issue at 6 and not just ignore it

I think we will see some of the best of Buckley's work come out today with hard agressive tackling, especially from the full back line.

I don't think Dublin will be prepared for the ferocity of the battle and even though they are a very good team, Mayo will prevail.

I have absolutely no idea what to expect from either team!

It's a nice way to be going in really - no real expectation, just see what happens.

Whatever happens today ,we can say McStay has had a solid debut season.

That wouldn't have been the case had we lost to Galway last Sunday, so its pressure off for me today.

MacDanger

Well in this, I think we're good enough to win from here

WesternZulu

Pity the Flynn goal wasn't rightly allowed

km79

We should be winning this game

Took way too long to make the change but at least it’s made

Carney will be lucky to see the second half as well

I’d worry about Eoghan mc on a yellow

But we will win it

Cillian to be the difference

PARlance

Terrible from Callinan, unfortunate but you can't do that.

Reape needs to up his kick outs.

Loafing Oaf

Jesus what a miss 😢

This is the most mayo game ever

Not an ounce of football in him

Pointless persisting with him

Eoghan McLaughlin?

I'd tend to agree.

I rewatched the Galway game a few days ago and thought he made more mistakes than what he did right.

I don't like to criticize players but I don't think he is at the level required.

Be-Jaysus

Legs gone by HT.

That's been really obvious for years tbh.

Cartman78

Is Conroy still on the pitch?

Not having a go at him but I don't think he got a touch in the second half 😢

Who did ?

We were not allowed say it though

Absolutely pointless

Uncoachable

O Hora is another one

there is a reason he wasn’t anywhere near intercounty set up for years

PARlance

The manner of this defeat reflects very poorly on the management.

They're blessed to have the league this year but some serious questions should be asked.

1. Really failed to time peak performance for the Championship.

2. No real development in play versus blanket defences.

3. Persisting with Loftus at CB all year for him to be dumped aside.

The Dubs were good today but we couldn't raise it when needed. Terribly flat performance.

Xander10

I said at the time, that Mayo seemed to be peaking in the league.

look at the gears Kerry & Dublin went up

martyos121

When you know a relentless attack is coming to begin the second half, even if it’s incredibly difficult to stop as it always is with Dublin, surely there has to be an approach to stifle them as much as possible?

Credit to the Dubs for going out and battering us in those 8 minutes, but there was a complete lack of effort from Mayo and tactically we played right into their hands.

Felt exactly like 2019 all over again.

Standing back from the disappointment, hammered Kerry twice, beat Galway three times and top Connaught team, we’ve had worse years

I'm going the other way tbh. We beat a Kerry team who were miles off the pace and without Clifford and O'Se starting in Castlebar. Pointless really with the bigger picture in mind.

The game in Killarney was really impressive but finishing third in the group undid the good in that.

We drew once and beat Galway twice, ambitions should be greater than being the top team in Connaught.
