    And who do we blame for the lack of kick passing. Is this another general observation? I'm glad you agree that Dublin are a pleasure to watch.

    Who do we blame on that?

    The GAA. The game should be in mullingar or roscommon. Stop being so paranoid.

    Speaking of, Why was MDMA blackcarded yesterday? I understand Jonny Cooper was acting the maggot with his opponent at the same time but I missed what Michael Darragh did?

    Good start for Meath but feel like Mayo will gradually get rolling here

    What are you basing that on.

    The upper tiers are open today. Clearly a bigger crowd than yesterday.

    Because the place isn't even half full and mayo normally bring massive numbers.

    Case of mistaken identity, Lowndes blocked a run and they carded the wrong man.

    You are a bit entrenched in your Dublin position but they are not the worst offenders , its apparent the GAA hope that organically over time the game will rectify itself but this position may be proved wrong.

    You expect Mayo to bring 20,000+ to every game?
    They are there in numbers.

    For all the talk of blanket defensives and tactics and other randomness it really comes down to the team with the best forwards/attacking players win. It's why I've never thought Mayo would get over the line. Meath look to be the same. I don't think Tyrone have enough either. Donegal and Kerry are the only ones to really get anywhere close to Dublin when it comes to fire power.

    This game will come down to who has the fitness to see out the 70.


    Meath disappeared there for about 20 minutes. Mayo may edge it as they have the panel.

    I've had to hard out cards on this thread already today

    This is the *2019* championship thread, not about changes or Dublin bashing

    Anyone doing it again will be banned - you have had more than enough warnings
