    What were the Donegal lads getting on to the ref and O'Shea it seemed at the half time whistle. One of the Donegal players (couldnt see who) was really giving O'Shea a lot of grief as he walked off.

    McGuinness still thinking he's managing Donegal with all the us and we.

    Good game so far, restored my joy on watching football after the 1st game.

    Both teams doing well, mayo seem to have more up front but donegal can get a goal or 2 easily, route 1 to Michael Murphy or work off his breaks. Great second half in store.

    That's that just about done at HT, Mayo a good bit better and the gap will only get bigger in the 2nd half I think

    Lot a time for Jim Mc but he's seeing his own game. Its Donegal that were looking rattled. Mayo better team throughout.

    Yeah i thought that comment was completely biased from McGuinness. There's only one team rattled out there, if any. And it definitely isnt Mayo.

    Your point is proving because a mayo man take about 10 steps before scoring a goal?

    Looked flukey, can see Mayo step it up a gear and give Donegal a hiding now.

    That does my head in, along with players lifting the ball straight off the ground. Referees need to start enforcing the basic rules of the game.

    When Donegal go behind they need to change to Plan B - the question is do they have a Plan B?

    Plan B involves pushing out and giving up on the one thing that keeps them competitive...blanket defence.

    I know, they aim to keep the game tight for as long as possible, 20 mins left and there are 8 points behind, lets see if they play offensively.

    Plan B is move the feckin bus parked within their own half.

    But its too late.... the bus wont start and Mayo are driving a Ferrari anyway.

    Why has AOS moved out. Surely with less men there now he's be even more effective inside.

    It should be a good game,Mayo are a dangerous team to meet in a semi final but I expect the Dubs to just have too much for them,they will hardly be caught out two years in a row at the semi final stage.

    Absolute cakewalk for Mayo. They had loads more in the tank in the second half.

    Serious threat to Dublin. More so than Kerry/Tyrone in my opinion.

    If Mayo beat them, it'sbecause Mayo are better than them.

    Nope Donegal just basically gave up. Their big players were no where to be seen today.
