Should be a good game. Mayo's defence will be under serious pressure today, they cant concede goals but I can see Kerry getting a few.
Mayo will get there chances of goals too so have to be clinical, they should have confidence after Monaghan game.
Big difference from the Tralee game is the weather and how it effected free kicks. Its perfect day for Sean O Shea and he will nail all his. Mayo still lacking a reiable free taker, Doherty is good but still prone to miss the odd one.
Perfect day for football will suit Kerry more, they have alot of lads back so more options off the bench, so ill go for Kerry by 4.

Hopefully today our forwards will be confident enough to score more from play and less reliant on frees.

Plenty of Mayo cars on the M6/M4 this morning....really hoping we can win this even if it's "only" a league final as heading back with a cup would be a nice change...up Mayo

Limerick won the hurling. I expect Kerry to win the football. Hopefully though Mayo will show their traditional fighting spirit and keep going until the last minute. If not Kerry will win handily, maybe by 8 or 9 points. Anyway Mhaigeo Abú

Probably the fact there was 4 Kerry players hanging off him every time he got the ball

Sloppy enough half from both teams.

Kerry haven't done much up front, besides 2 lovely goals. Clifford lucky not to get called for a double hop, but sure on the rule but usually a ref would blow for that.

Mayo have had 3 great goal chances but haven't taken any, one of which was with the keeper stranded and out of goals!

Kerry from here for me but Mayo still in it.

Enjoyable first half , Boland whose playing well but he's in one on one at goal go for it instead of fisting a point no? Sean O Se welcome to Croke Park and lee Keegan completely different world to anything else he hasn't had a kick off Keegan. Clifford lethal when he gets it , you can see Kerry have the more lethal forwards but mayo defenders keep them in it as much as possible cause their so good. Durkan is brilliant, Both teams have had their dominance but with o Donoghue and Geaney to come on I fancy Kerry now.

Maybe if the Kerry players weren't hanging off him there wouldn't be any frees?

Ye got two class goals and yer defence is very solid. Very good keeper. Ye're kicking to much short ball in to Hennelly. Expecting Andy in soon, possibly for Boland. We need a few plans to break through up front, possibly Aidan at FF. Yer bench is quite average in comparison to ours!!!!

There are a lot goals being left behind by Mayo.

Kerry full back line is looking fairly vulnerable to the early ball in, once they get their system set though they're defending very well.

DOC looks permanently knackered. Great leader though. Some heart.

Well done Mayo the biggest weirdo team of all time you just can't predict them at all, they'll probably lose to New York now ha. Great win Clifford will be sick he should of buried that at the end , Diarmuid O Conor the man outstanding from him. Roll on the championship it's aint going to be easy for The Dubs.
