There was plenty of good football played in all 4 finals. It just so happened that in some of the games it largely came from one of the counties. I remember us getting hockeyed by Galway in the 80's.... it wasn't the end of world. We improved. Meath will beat the Dubs again, Cork could still do something this year and Galway are improving. These things come in cycles. At least now there are a number of genuine contenders for the AI in addition to the favourites... something which hasn't always been the case in the past. People forget so easily. Pericles (Mayo) - Posts: 2521 - 20/07/2014 21:19:09 1622387 Link 0 |

I think these boyos who spend their lives marking down games for not being as good as some mythical game they saw in 1967 or whenever need seriously to get a life. It's like restaurant critics - their whole shagging night is ruined if the soup is too cold. Miserable shower. essmac (Tyrone) - Posts: 1141 - 20/07/2014 21:38:44 1622428 Link 0 |

When Arkle was winning Gold Cups and when Frankel was destroying all comers no one thought they were bad races. I love watching this Dublin team. Don't care whether they win by 1 or 31. hurlingdub (Dublin) - Posts: 6978 - 21/07/2014 09:09:44 1622492 Link 0 |
Yesterday's clipping at the hands of Dublin was hard to take, expected a contest for the first 50mins at least. Congrats to the Dubs on a very impressive performance. Game was effectively over before after 20mins, and that's being generous. Same as Munster final where I (along with most others) had expected a close game. Mayo always had too much in the tank for Galway and the match pretty much came to it's inevitable conclusion. Ulster final was the now traditional dogfight, pretty much the pattern for most Ulster games. Donegal got into the winning position and you just knew it'd take a minor miracle for Monaghan to get back at them. Good football played by Dublin,Cork, Mayo, glimpses from Donegal, Monaghan, Galway. Everyone else playing catch up. At least for once you can clearly say that the AI winner will not be coming from the qualifier series. moylagh (Meath) - Posts: 484 - 21/07/2014 09:44:40 1622519 Link 0 |
