Mod Note Post #1 - The 2022 All Ireland Senior Football Championship.

You can throw in that they also bet Mayo that year having lost to us the previous 2 years,the omens are good for Galway!

I'm really looking forward to this,there will be a few twists and turns today.The performance of the top Galway players outside of Comer,Walsh and Conroy might decide this ie lads who get lost in games or on their day could be match winners,Teirney,Sean Kelly,Rob Finnerty, McDaid.

Not atall, it is what it is. Funny thing is, the last 7 all irelands kerry have won I had a splitting headache that morning and had to make an almerciful Guinness sh1t at about half 10 on the day of the game. Well no word of a lie, the headache is just easing off and I'm just off the bowl. So the Omens are good for Kerry.

In all seriousness tho, best of luck to Galway. I dont think ye can beat us today But it's not impossible. Ye will need to score 2 or 3 goals to do it. If ye don't do it! You can be very proud of the year you've had, and build on it for next year. And if ye do manage to beat us! All I can say is! By god ye'll earn it.

Beat of luck to both teams and Kerry ABÚ

Game on indeed, I'm hoping a few early high balls into that Galway fullback line will result in my nerves being settled early on. Galway crowd seem supremely confident though,

Looking forward to this game as a neutral! Hope Galway cause an upset, mam is from there so I’ll support. But more so just hope that it’s a really decent and exciting final! My Meath boys of 96 being honoured today! Anyone know what time that usually happens? Thanks

My god what an angry obnoxious post. This view is goes to the root of the nasty element we see in the GAA.

Of course I wish them luck. I want to see a good game where no one gets injured and both sets of supporters get the pleasure of a hopefully a great final. I hope both sides have luck enough that the game is decided on some excellent moments rather then player mistakes or referring decisions. Plus its nice to be polite with each other both before match and after! In victory and defeat. The majority of the genuine gaa people I meet are exactly the same. I don't pay much heed to the begrudging poisonous arguments that you have outlined above. I dont know what county you support! But I could guess.

I look forward to sharing and receiving some insights both before and after from Galway supporters who I've always found knowledgeable and honest with regards to the game.

So I'll say it again, BEST OF LUCK TO GALWAY! Hope everyone enjoys the game and gets home safe. KERRY ABÚ

No penalties, goes to a replay if it's a draw after extra-time.

Cavanagh and Whelan throwing their eyes to heaven as Spillane rambles on and on about Kerry's record of one point victories since 1960. Spillane is there long enough. Time for fresh blood.

Dublin '95 and Meath '96 teams being remembered today in Croke Park. The Dublin players all looking remarkably fit still.

Kerry '97 team being paraded now too. Some session for thoses three teams later. I wonder which hostelries they'll frequent? The Boers Head, Palace Bar, Pipers Corner and Briodys will welcome a few for sure.

I thought some of the Meath lads had put on some timber, but Dowd is still the same barrell shape he was in his pomp.

All started with the opening fixture of defending champions Tyrone against Fermanagh on April 16th and providing a replay isn't required the 2022 championship will end today July 24th.

I think Kerry will edge it by a couple of points but hopefully it's a good competitive contest that's in the balance right up to the final 10 minutes.

Cavanagh is such a shít analyst.

I didn't see the Meath team just heard they were there too.
