Care to elaborate? Or did you want them all for yourself?:D

I'm disgusted with O Connor. He just quit, No Mas. Did he not see what Meehan did earlier in the year? Go for the fúcking goal ferfuksake!!!:mad::mad::mad:

Perhaps Mayo should request to play the All ireland final before the rest of their championship games next year

Culchies resorting to slagging speeches and tracksuits! Eat your hearts out. The Dubs showed they can beat Kerry in the best match of the year and have now beaten Mayo in possibly the worst match. The 2 games were like chalk and cheese. Skill beat Kerry, physicality beat Mayo. Mayo will not reach the final next year. They must be sick after losing 2 in a row! Can we play Kerry in the final next year so we might see a decent game please?

I fully expect Mayo to be back for the three in a row next year.

He had no balls. 74min and two points down. They didnt deserve to win when O Connor opted for a point. It was goal or nothing.

There's the small matter of having to get there first...

Ireland and its people has prospered in our sense of oneupmanship over generations. Oneupmanship and begrudgery helps us get out of bed in the morning and rise to the challenge of a brand new day.

keeponhurling · 22-09-2013 05:25PM

To beat that Dublin team, Mayo really needed a top performance and to be at their best.
Big players for them like Dillon, Freeman, and even OConnor didn't really perform.

None of the subs made much impact either.

Dublin deserved winners and I think they are the best team in the country.
A shame to see all the cynical fouling at the end but that's football for ya

my friend · 22-09-2013 05:25PM

You don't win an Ireland by simply showing up today.

aveytare · 22-09-2013 05:25PM

Harte would probably be shot if Tyrone closed out an all-ireland like that.

Dublin

I'm seriously cut up here. Another loss in a final. Margin was only 1 point in the end but that doesn't speak to how far ahead Dublin were. Flattering for Mayo in fact.

Unrecognisable Mayo and they spent much of the 2nd half running down blind alleys.

Anyway, enjoy the celebrations to all the decent Dublin fans, of which there are many. Sadly there is quite a few others on here who are doing a disservice to the majority.

I'm in pieces here.

Dublin

I thought Dublin got away with a lot of borderline dirty tackles in the last 20 minutes in particular. McQuillan did not have a good game and Mayo fans can feel slightly aggrieved. In saying that, Mayo's forwards were comically bad in the 2nd half, no outball for the half backs and midfield. They should have been far more ahead at half time. As well as that, what on earth was O' Connor doing at the end? 2 points down, time up (you can see the clock on the screen) and he goes for a point. Why not shoot ala Meehan, or even try work a penalty or goal scoring opportunity? He completely bottled it.

Overall Dublin the better team, heroic performance from Mayo's backlines saved them a far bigger margin. I honestly think this curse must exist, it was Mayo's worst performance of the championship and they saved it for the biggest day of all. It's going to be hard to shake the bottlers tag after this.

Well done Dublin.

Having balls doesn't explain it. Balls for what, exactly? He shouldn't have been allowed to do what he did. Surely the leader or leaders should have instructed him to go for goal What he did was off the wall. Simple: A goal is needed. Nothing else will suffice. Mayo man:What is difficult with this logic?

well done dublin from a clare man dont know where this anti dubs crap comes from they were the best team all year deserved there win today and the shocking part that might confuse the "i'am sick of watching the same team win" brigade that's only dublin's 3rd all ireland in nearly 20 years.

sadly for mayo the hart of adian o shea and andy moran was'nt enough on its own,

stretchdoe · 22-09-2013 05:30PM

Brogan's barnet is a bit fancy dan for my liking.
No GAA All-Ireland MOTM should be sporting the likes of that.

He had a bad match against both teams to be fair. He was absolutely horrendous and neither side got any advantage from his decisions. He got a lot wrong and it evened out on both sides. However, the last 10 minutes cynical fouling by the dubs was ridicolous!

It was an inexplicable decision: unless they'd asked the ref and had been told there'd be a bit of time left to play after the kick-out.

rpurfield · 22-09-2013 05:32PM

probably one of the worst finals in a while, there was a hell of a lot of mistakes by both teams but its all about the result. dublin deserve to be all ireland champions after their performances all year, but i really hope i dont hear them moaning about tyrone pulling and dragging to close out games next year after the end of that game. honestly i can understand why they done it and wed all want our team doing it in that position but some of the piousness from some of their fans during the year is hypocritical in that light.
