Jim, In my mind, If we beat Westmeath, Next up is Cork or Kerry. Just a feeling. A gut feeling.

1744286 Very impressive from Dublin yesterday.

Tighter at the back but still as potent up front, a heady mixture indeed.

There will be sterner tests but at this stage they look very good.


That was also evident in NFL Div 1

Dublin finishing with the best defensive record

A wee tweak was all that was needed - we weren't far off last year

Let defenders be defenders and keep em where they should be

Kildare setup very defensively yesterday and tried to counter

Time and time again they saw 8 blue jerseys with Johnny / Philly holding the space

We didn't over commit and we still scored a massive tally..

This is the way forward for this Dublin team and against the stronger defensive setups it's def. the way to go

You can over commit and leave yourself open to the counter attack

You wont see Dublin doing that this year and as could seen for large parts in the league

That balance had to be met and I think you're seeing that in full swing now.

Very happy to see it.

Very impressive from the Dubs, again! Lot of rubbish about Dublin being under-cooked once they come out of Leinster. It never did Kerry any harm playing in a joke of a so called Munster championship. I think they've taken the lesson that Donegal handed them last year and fully expect them to be in Croker on the 3rd Sunday in Sept.

Ah right..

ha-ha... I do enjoy the gut feelings and trying to guess what's next!

I'm convinced we'll get Tyrone

Kerry always had Cork to bounce off but unfortunately the likes of Meath and Kildare no longer provide that test, hence Leinster is now a joke.

If we win Leinster, We cant get Tyrone cause they are on the B side.

As it stands, Providing we beat Westmeath we could only play - Fermanagh/Antrim/Offaly/Kildare/Longford/Clare/Cavan/Roscommon/Cork/Kerry

(We wouldnt be able to play Westmeath as we would have met them in the leinster final)

Hope Connolly can keep this form up, loved where he was playing yesterday.

Waynol we will hammer Westmeath out the gate it won't even be a contest. Our season starts the August bank holiday versus Cork or Kerry.
