A third day out for the Castleknock boys, last minute extra time point .. Kilkenny knocked over 10 points

Love the Hill but it does attract it's fair share of absolute clowns. The lads with the bodhrans/drums, the idiots trying to get an "aaahh here leave it out" chant going:rolleyes: and as you say the pr!ck with the whistle. Does he not realise this could be as off putting for Dublin players as much as the opposition? Deserves a good slap.

Yeah it was a super game, Kilkenny and Paul O'Connor for Kenmare were the stand outs but Castleknock's Rory Corcoran was very good as well.

Kilkenny is remarkably talented. With him to come back in along with some of the youngsters on display for Dublin the last night the future is looking very bright for you lads.

Rubbish, as pointed out to you twice, you didn't even know who was who or where they were playing.

i made a mistake due to them being subbed in last minute

so i dont get an opinion now no:rolleyes:

Dublinfan · 10-02-2013 02:42PM

Good first half Dubs playing a strong game, hopefully will continue 2nd half

DDC1990 · 10-02-2013 02:49PM

Giving us a lesson.

Ye look flying fit and strong.

Look like ye have 3 extra players.

Dubs will be very strong this year.

Billy Mays · 10-02-2013 03:47PM

Great win for the Dubs. Kerry were very poor though. Cameras didn't show it but I'd be very disappointed if McAuley got himself involved with Donaghy. The dog on the street knows he's gonna wind the opposition up when he comes on. Probably miss two games now just as Bastick is coming back. Hurlers beating Wexford aswell. Happy days:)

exador · 10-02-2013 06:54PM

Paddy Andrews had another good game and Mc Caffrey looked good as well... Dublin played very good football but Kerry were poor. There will be more sterner tests ahead but good to see so much talent coming through and on the bench.

Looking forward to Kildare Match , both teams looking very good and should be a cracker.

Getting ahead of myself...Mayo next..

Great to see the Internet police on here sticking up for K Donaghy. Dublin beat s poor Kerry team in Feb means nothing, a bit like Kikdare beating 14 man Cork. Different teams come Champo.

In fairness I don't think DK is picking up for KD

He is just pointing out that no matter who the lads playing the game and what we personally think of them they shouldn't be personally abused here,Having said that not to fond of the lad (thats KD not DK) myself but I shall keep that for the mirror.

Well done all the Dubs today, looking good.

No need for name calling. Donaghy may be "a tool" as you so eloquently put it but he is a talented tool.. No need for anyone to call any players names on an Internet forum.

Well done to Dublin both codes btw.

In Kieran Donaghy's case I respectfully disagree

Calling someone you don't know a tool is not an opinion.

Its ignorance. You are basing your judgment of Donaghy on what?

A few shots of him shouting on RTE?

MDMA gets sent off, and its "that tool Donaghy's" fault?

You don't like him, thats fine, but don't abuse him, keep it to yourself.

Didn't say it was Donaghy's fault for MDMA gettin sent off, I said it was his own fault for gettin involved with Donaghy.

I'm basing my judgement on how Donaghy carries himself in games. I've seen it on several occasions with my own two eyes (I do go to games, I don't have to rely on TV replays). He's a sneaky player who regularly does his best to wind the opposition up and get players sent off. Likes to dish it out but can't take it.

You're right I don't know him. Maybe off the pitch he's a decent fella but on the pitch he's one of the most dislikeable players in the country and I don't think there are too many who'd disagree.

corny · 10-02-2013 09:42PM

Could the moderator who deleted my post tell me why it was removed?

Thats a valid opinion.

No problem with you saying that. I can see why a lot of people don't like him. He mouths a lot, but he has a tough time of it.

I don't think he's been awarded a free since about 2006. Referee's don't like him, mainly for his mouthing, and he suffers because of that.

A lot of the shít he gets into, is in protection of the smaller forwards like Gooch, when they are getting extra treatment off the ball. He's like an enforcer.

He's a mouth, but I disagree that he looks to wind up other players, and he is the opposite of sneaky. If Donaghy is getting involved in something its going to be out there, no underhandedness about it.

Thats just my opinion.

EDIT: On topic. Ye are motering this year. Huge panel very strong, very fit. Looked like ye had 3 extra players on the pitch today.
Kerry were very poor, but that takes nothing away from Dublin. The score was bad enough, but if Andrews had kept his shot in the first half either side of Kealy, and if Brogan hadn't missed that soft free, the score could have really got out of hand.

As I said on the Kerry thread, don't think i've seen a worse 35 minutes out of Kerry as I saw in the first half. Great Dublin crowd down in Killarney, fair play to those who travelled.

Agree complety, Kerry played quite dirty at times aswell especially that goal chance when they where on top of cluxton think they mixed up rugby and gaa:D

DDC1990 · 10-02-2013 10:42PM

Yeah, agree with you. We were cynical from the get go, fouling here there and everywhere, because we were second to the ball every time.

Only way we could slow ye down for a while was to drag ye down.

Early days yet though.

Kerry were flying in the league last year and we all know how the year went after that.

Still think Dublin will have the motivation, the strength and the fitness to go all the way this year. If ye match Donegal's physicality, I think ye have more then enough football in ye to win out.
