I've seen teams rattle through games from week to week and turn up very flat after a few weeks of a break. The body gets used to hard weekends followed by recovery sessions and the longer break seems to be a disadvantage. Now I know the S&C and fitness coaches will have all this covered but don't be surprised to see some players perform without the usual zip.

In football terms I like to "hate " Mayo more than anyone else due to multiple beatings since 2001. But I cant help but admire their player's incredible resolve and fight and I know plenty of good genuine mayo men (gave a ticket to one very deserving man)that would be in dreamland if they won and I hope they do. salvador (Roscommon) - Posts: 439 - 15/09/2017 23:01:25 2046355 Link 0 |

So according to most there's no way Mayo can win tomorrow If Dublin don't win it means they didn't play well For me I couldn't care less A Mayo win is all that counts cluichethar (Mayo) - Posts: 453 - 16/09/2017 13:37:29 2046430 Link 0 |

Dublin are favs so yes the majority think they'll win. Actually what will happen if Mayo win is folk will say Dublin were not as good as made out. If Dublin win, expect a repeat of the "Dublin advantages" threads.

It was in response to RealDub who said most pundits on the radio going for Mayo.

I'm out of here ladies and gents, Dublin and Mayo fans lucky enough to have tickets .. Enjoy yourselves .. Have a good weekend, a few celebratory/commiseration drinks whatever it may be for your team. these are special weekends in the life of everyone associated with the counties involved .two wonderful teams meeting in a final again. So excited for this, final call of Dublin by 6-8 points .. We will see what happens. waynoI (Dublin) - Posts: 13650 - 16/09/2017 18:06:18 2046475 Link 0 |
Logic dictates a Dublin win by 3/4 points but you just never know as it's the All-Ireland final. Both teams are playing much better this year than last so it could be a really good game. I just can't see Dublin beating Mayo well, they have never been able to beat Mayo by much in the past. If Mayo are to win they just have to disrupt Dublin and not let them waltz up to their 45 unchallenged like Tyrone did. Mayo will also need their big guns firing - AOS, Andy Moran, Colm Boyle, Lee Keegan & Cillain O'Connor. Lee Keegan is due a big game. If the Mayo half back line can get forward and put Con O'Callaghan and Paul Mannion on the back foot then they have a chance. Dublin are a fantastic team but maybe, just maybe they are due a bad game. It can sometimes be difficult to put another great performance in like the one against Tyrone. I'll stick my neck on the block and go for a Mayo win by 2 points. Green_Gold (Donegal) - Posts: 1870 - 16/09/2017 18:25:55 2046478 Link 0 |

There appears to be some doubt about Keegan's fitness. Would not be surprised if Durcan is brought in. He is a good footballer but not even close to Keegan in strength and leadership.

neveright is an apt name. Durcan was Mayos best player across the 2 final matches last year. Durcan has more pace than Keegan and is as physically strong and is taller. Keegan only marginally better than Durcan based on being a better marker and finisher centerfield (Mayo) - Posts: 360 - 16/09/2017 20:19:18 2046515 Link 0 |
