His direct running in the last 10 mins would have caused them problems and we needed more adventure than Moynihan or Lyne were gona give-you are not going to play out a 1 point lead with 10 mins to go against the Dubs- we needed another score

If you remember they did pull the trigger a few times which went wide before finally scored. Bit disappointed with Kerry playing keep ball so close to their own goal with so much time left. Dublin were out on their feet with a huge press on so there was acres of space behind them. Tommy Walsh and Moynihan were in the Dublin half, fresh as daisies. They should have hammered a few balls up the field to let them chase. I know the Kerry players were exhausted at that stage both physically and mentally but trying to keep the ball and/or running into tackles was very silly I thought, especially so close to their own goal. That kind of messing cost us an all Ireland in 2011!

Poor_old_gill wrote: » And the reason I’m saying he’d have been a good option is because keep ball was obviously just an ad hoc tactic adopted by a handful of players that made no sense and almost cost us the game. We engaged in keep ball due to a lack of imagination and/or bravery to attack them. Our last 2 attacking subs on gave us nothing going forward and BJK would have taken on his man rather than turning back for a cheap and east hand pass that just invites on their press. Their press was always going to smother us unless we had someone to break the lines which I think BJK would have done. We clung on last weekend due to idiotic keep ball decisions- Dublin kicked it away at the end and we needed another option

We had Dublin on the rack before Cooper was sent off, we missed a boatload of chances that would normally be scored, we didn't buckle when we went 5 points down, and plenty of lads played their first All-Ireland and now know they're able for it. Dublin will surely be better, but I think we will as well. The major worry is the lack of composure we showed after we went a point ahead, but if that situation arises again, I'm sure they'll be more prepared.
