Mayo by 6+ pulling up in second gear... Pericles (Mayo) - Posts: 2521 - 09/08/2019 13:50:43 2223022 Link
Replying To baire: "Hope I'm wrong but Mayo's exertions against Donegal without sufficient time to recover may go against them. A similar situation to the Galway hurlers this year who defeated KK but then faced a fresh Dublin team at home 6 days later." You could well be right unfortunately, In fairness its terrible treatment of players having just a week break preparing for an All Ireland semi final. For all counties, not just mayo Tizcold (Galway) - Posts: 239 - 09/08/2019 13:51:36 2223024 Link

For all counties, not just mayo" Agreed. Why couldn't it be next weekend? That still leaves a two week gap to the Final. the_walls (Mayo) - Posts: 495 - 09/08/2019 14:01:18 2223030 Link

Replying To letterkennyGuy: "I really cannot understand the hype around Mayo. A terrible Donegal display last Saturday and they still almost win. The Championship needed Dublin v Donegal...... Intensity win it not Quality so all i can see is a Dublin win possibly 10 points +" The championship needs the team most capable of beating Dublin which are Mayo. Mayo are the only team who can match Dublin with physicality. They also bring a great crowd of fans to every game. I think the championship badly missed them last year. grodzilla (Galway) - Posts: 7 - 09/08/2019 15:01:06 2223064 Link
It's meant to be very wet tomorrow Heavy rain fall Think 2015 All Ireland final It'll greatly impact the quality on offer and really anything might happen, there will be weather forced mistakes all over the shop It'll be very draining because it's also meant to be warm. It completely changes the landscape Let's see how it all plays out.. there's pros and cons for each team but hopefully no serious injuries and the ref will have to give plenty of scope to the players jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20601 - 09/08/2019 16:11:36 2223100 Link

The weather changes everything. I think Dublin are the more skillful team but the weather is going to nullify that. Mayo will bring an incredible hunger and physicality to this game. Beginning to worry if i am being honest. avonali (Dublin) - Posts: 1974 - 09/08/2019 17:29:05 2223132 Link

If they go onto win tomorrow it'll be a great result for them and hopefully they'll go onto win it all. Hipster is absolutely right about your health and the health of your loved ones. I was sick myself in 2017 and came through that speed bump but when you get that call it really does put things into perspective. Tis only a game of ball and sure let the best team win. Hopefully it's Dublin but Jaysus it's not like we've not been doing well... some amazing memories jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20601 - 09/08/2019 18:29:18 2223150 Link
I think Mayo will win because of the weather. Work to begin on the new roof for Croke Park in October Forpucksake (UK) - Posts: 130 - 09/08/2019 18:30:11 2223151 Link
Just waiting on the mayo team...best of luck to the Mayo ladies, minors and seniors tomorrow. And safe traveling to everyone. Don't really know what to except tomorrow, could get hammered, could win by a point or two....weather situation is overplayed. It's very humid which is difficult to play in anyway. I have huge respect for the Dublin team and what they have achieved, despite us being on the end of most of it.....we are on paper up against it big time but you can never write off Mayo. Some great memories following this team, people outside can laugh all they want about us loosing so many finals but, the memories are there, journeys up and down to Dublin, NYC, London, Limerick etc...with great friends. Would love to see us do it and finally bring Sam west, especially for my father. If it doesent happen this year, well then forward we look yet again. Up Mayo ! yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11236 - 09/08/2019 22:43:13 2223235 Link
I'm going for a Mayo win tomorrow. I think Mayo have a point to prove to the country and may have learned more about Dublin in losing narrowly to them in recent times then what Dubs have learned about Mayo. Mayo by 2 Douglas_44 (Roscommon) - Posts: 225 - 09/08/2019 23:21:30 2223242 Link

Replying To Dec82: "Haha, that's brilliant." That is very funny alright, time to see Diarmuid Connolly soon, Dubs will be thanking that official that stopped him going to play for Donegal Boston, Dubs by 4. Tirchonaill1 (Donegal) - Posts: 2757 - 10/08/2019 17:50:48 2223432 Link
