Devil's advocate?

a) getting old (Gooch & O'Se in particular)
b) weak when run at (Cork & Tyrone proved this)
c) underperforming (O'Donoghue was shackled & Moran was fumbling against Tyrone)
d) the midfield can be worked around (as Dublin did with Mayo previously)
e) Fitzmaurice is a master tactician... but... Cork and Tyrone nearly beat them (Cork just didn't turn the screw; Tyrone's shooting was wayward)

f) only 2 at a push 3 players would get near Dublin panel of 26

Your right Pike Kerry are far from invincible! But like I said its a one off game now only 70mins stands between them and a second All Ireland in a row. Whether it be Dublin or Mayo, if Kerry play to their potential they'll always have a great chance!

Of course you need luck to won games and we had our fair share of luck in 2012 but we did beat all the BEST teams in Ireland that year except of course Dublin who we did not get a chance to play.
But I can also tell you from following Donegal for 50 years we also had desperate bad luck.
I still can't have it they E Fitzmaurice is one of the great managers, wait until he wins a few more All Ireland's as after all he has just win one so far.
Micky harts achievements is way way in front of what EF has done so far and did M Hart get much praise after he won one AI
He did not , it took two more All Ireland's for Tyrone before he got much praise
I will give one reason why Kerry COULD WIN THE SAM THIS YEAR ----- if Dublin get to the final Kerry wil win it
One reason why they won't win --- if Mayo reach the final they will beat Kerry and fairly handy at that.

Disagree about this point. We never looked like losing a single game in 2012, and none were won in controversial circumstances.

KErry are not looking lucky this year either. They are beating all that teams fair and square, tyrone never looked like wining last week, and cork were well beaten in the replay. If kerry win this year, they will have beaten 3 division 1 sides. (dublin will have only beaten 2, and mayo will have beaten 3 if they win it).

Lads it's nearly 2 years since Dublin have beaten a division 1 team in the championship ( mayo in 2013 final ) that's astonishing to be fair. So they are going to be really up for the game tomorrow and every1 knows if Dublin get to the final they won't be alloud to lose.
