The Kerry lads make me laugh playuing down there chances, saying the players they have lost (Granted they have lost Gooch, but the others had their service done, no player will go forever). belmay (Mayo) - Posts: 172 - 05/08/2014 16:59:05 1631979 Link 0 |
Think Kerry will win because this year they are playing for 70 mins RAHKILL (Westmeath) - Posts: 395 - 05/08/2014 17:05:44 1631986 Link 0 |
Kerry to win, even if u double mark o'donoghue, you are leaving space for players like geaney to run riot, if u dont double mark o'donoghue he will run riot! as_ky (Kerry) - Posts: 535 - 05/08/2014 18:52:16 1632052 Link 0 |
Kerry will really fear Mayo in this one. Going for their third All Ireland Final appearance in a row makes them a formidable outfit and one to be feared. I hope our lads can put up a respectable performance so that our team building for next few years won't be thrown really off course. I'd say within five points of them would be a fairly acceptable outing for our lads especially as we don't have a great semi-final record against Mayo of late. dingle2 (Kerry) - Posts: 278 - 05/08/2014 21:35:29 1632188 Link 0 |

Yes Kerry are experts at playing down their chances. I advise all Mayo supporters to enjoy the championship. That means put up your flags, and put on county songs etc in the town squares. I am saying this because I have been in Mayo in the lead up to the big game, and people are almost forbidden to mention their chances, out of creating hype. This has proven to be something that doesnt affect a county any more. 2 years ago, when we won the all ireland, you couldnt go anywhere without flags or songs blaring. It didnt affect the players. Similarly 20 odd years ago it was the same. It is time to enjoy the rest of the summer. Forget about mind games, it might just take a wee bit of the pressure of your players.

It's long past time that our players should be pressurised by hype within and outside the. We were long enough outside Croke Park in the 70s,mainly because of a great Roscommon team, getting there in championship seemed a big ask. In '81 we got back there, in '89 we got to our first final in 38 years. We've been there since, you know the rest, but we're nearly complacent now about playing in Croker in August and/or September. We shouldn't be. GreenandRed (Mayo) - Posts: 7387 - 06/08/2014 09:38:03 1632239 Link 0 |

When weighing both sides up, I would consider Mayo to be the stronger team overall. Mayo's half forwards, midfield and half back lines are superb. They have a decent full forward line, and likewise a decent full back line. GaryMc82 (Derry) - Posts: 3017 - 06/08/2014 16:31:23 1632550 Link 0 |
I have predicted for a while now that Mayo will reach this years All Ireland Final and still stand by that, I just hope when they eventually win SAM, that it is not us they are playing in the Final because we will never hear the end of it.

Yerra we are good at downplaying other peoples expectations of us alright. But honestly we always travel supremely confident when ever we face into a big game, one of the advantages of the Kerry tradition. TheHermit (Kerry) - Posts: 6354 - 06/08/2014 22:00:31 1632738 Link 0 |

Can see this going right down to the wire. Mayo to prevail. To be honest I can't wait for this match. bluedubstar (Dublin) - Posts: 835 - 07/08/2014 09:25:43 1632767 Link 0 |
