The 2021 All Ireland Senior Football Championship

Get in Oisín McConville

I watch the game on Sky because of Spillane, Marty etc. RTÉ is rubbish.

If the game is not on Sky I watch RTÉ with the sound off and don’t listen to the “experts”.

Nonsensical ? Haha Sorry its accurate.. ;) look up a definition of nonsensical.. you are not relying on me for your enablement of Mayo in the championship... if you are... jesus.. on forums you dont get to deceide what is posted and when.. sorry... if you have a counter opinion go at it.

Have to say its the first time in years I actually feel excited about the championship. Dublin falling has given the sport a real shot in the arm which was desperately needed.

Really looking forward to a final which should be an equal contest which could go either way!

Need to get rid of Cavanagh too

The only team to beat Mayo in Championship football in Croke Park since 2012 is Dublin. They are acknowledged as the best team of all time so that is not a record to be ashamed of as you seem to suggest. These were not in the main one-sided non events either. We had draws in 2015 and 2016. We had one point defeats in 2013, 2016 and 2017.

If that Dublin team was not around, Mayo were best of the rest and have come back in the past two years with a new team with only 4 starters from the 2017 final starting the semi-final win against Dublin. There's very little baggage with this squad and many have medals at minor and u-21.

That said, Tyrone have assembled a good team too and the lift from new voices and new ideas in training seems to have brought them on in leaps and bounds this year. The final is up for grabs for whichever team wants it more but it's just lazy to write Mayo off based on their record against the Dubs teams of the last 10 years..

Ah Jayus yeah had forgotten the nephews connection makes sense. Having two panelist from each county does add spice to it tough. They get caught up in it, and let loose. The third neutral panelist ( in that case Whelan) adds the balance. Final will great excitement now for neutrals. Should be as tense as Donegal v Mayo 2012 but more open in play hopefully.

Don't think a lot of Dubs supporters who actually watched the games really believed they were going to share All Ire's with Kerry over the next couple of years most thought Kerry would dominate makes yesterday's result a bit more interesting as Mayo could well have the best prospects over the next couple if they get one this year not guaranteed by any means .

She is, in a bland sky sports ‘but then they all have lovely bottoms’ type way. Desperately heads off any controversial comment or discussion but that’s neither here nor there. Really enjoyed the game but the Yerras were woefully undercooked. I wonder will this prompt change in the provincial championships given the two big superpowers have been caught out? If Kerry in particular agitated for change it might be taken seriously. I hope Mayo do it in a fortnight but given I’m a huge admirer of Dooher from his playing days I wouldn’t be disappointed if Tyrone came through.

Just looked back over the 2019 Semi Kerry vs Tyrone. I'd forgotten how long Tyrone had led in the game and how close it was in the end, only a goal in it. And almost identical personnel.

How did the bookies make Kerry 1/6 favourites yesterday? And the expert pundits for that matter. Wins over Clare, Tipp and a (this season) Div 3 Cork were hardly the reason.

He can get very agitated and red in the face.

A bit concerning from a blood pressure perspective!

The second black card Tyrone got didn't affect them too much because at least half the 10 minutes was taken up by injuries (real or otherwise).

Surely if there's a stoppage the timer for the black card should be paused?
