Joxer, you Dubs are beginning to sound like Rangers fans in the 80's and 90's. We are Rangers (Dublin), super Rangers (Dublin) no one likes us we don't care. The rules don't apply to us because we are "The People"....and look what happened to them. Karma has a funny way of bringing arrogance down a peg or two.

I am certain all the moaning will not effect Dublin one bit. Sam is in the capital for the winter, this team have beat Kerry three times and they certainly have no fear of the Kingdom tradition. Well Done Dublin.... lads there is incidents in all finals which the likes of Kerry and Tyrone can certainly not complain about.

Ulsterman, you can add to that they both wear blue. Yeah definitely the rangers of the GAA.

And you know what's funny? When the witch hunt is on to get Tyrone, Dublin happily jump in and take part of that 31 vs 1.

But as soon as their players start acting up and it's pointed out, they jump back into their rangers like bubble.

Ah sure twil give you something to talk about Ulsterman. What would you do without the 'arrogant' Dubs? Sure you announced your long due retirement a couple of months ago but like a bad penny you keep turning up. Anyway, back to the celebrations. COYBIB.

Congrats to the dubs , they were the best team on the day , but I hope the gaa take action against mc Mahon for his disgraceful actions today , not a good advert for our national game eye gouging ,

Aido69 , no one down here.....you do know this is one island and the GAA as an organisation has written into its constitution support for the self determination of the island of Ireland. Ignorant comments like that by so called GAA men really wind me and the sad thing is the real Dublin Gaels of which there are many will be equally disgusted by partionist comments like that.

If Mc Mahon did eye gouge then he should be ashamed and I'm sure most Dublin fans will feel the same, but let's not pretend that other teams are squeaky clean as they are far from it including Kerry. Dubs were deserved winners today and nothing about Mc Mahon or anyone else will change that, can we not focus on the positives for a change which are that this is an incredibly talented group of Dublin players and while someone of them may indulge in the darker arts of the game lets not fool ourselves that they are the only one....... 'The Starr' is no angel himself.

Even the mention of anything to do with scottish soccer on here is pathetic
There is no comparisons between the backward factions of glasgow and what happens here, none whatsoever
Dubs are champs, we might not like it, but bitter irrelevant posts wont change a thing

Your wrong there jackgoff. Except for joxer, it was mostly Kerry lads sticking the boot into Tyrone

If he is found guilty of eye gouging he should be punished accordingly. However he was probably Dublin's player of the year, is a candidate for man of the match award and player of the year. Who wouldn't have him?

Paudi

I don't need history lesson from anyone on here from any part of the country. I was replying specifically to UM childish remark about Rangers. Live in Dublin so geographically I'm 'down here' when replying to anyone in Antrim. UM wants to take a cheap shot. I take one back.

ah now come on lads, Joxer is Philly McMahon's defence attorney don't forget. The Kerry player clearly headbutted Philly's hand and accidentally gauged his own eye.

Folks -poor behaviour

Was anyone in the lower Cusack today at the very back... we had a clown in a Kerry jester's hat.... he was obnoxious, foul mouthed... the worst supporter ever.... how he wasn't lynched... stewards spoke to him in 2 occasions until he was finally escorted from the area.... he gave everyone a major headache, constant screaming using ever expletive ever.... some just ridicious like f....king british dublin b....t..ds....
now I'm a neutral ... so i didn't mind who won ... but Jesus after being inflicted to his poor behaviour I wanted the Dubs to win.....

HE kept screaming at Cluxton even when Cluxton didn't have the ball!!!

we all get carried away .... but who gave this clown a ticket... he was a disgrace to Kerry , his club ( if he has one) , but he was a disgrace to the GAA

Jeez lads, can't we all just let the Dubs enjoy their win without trying to turn it into a slanging match. All over the field they won the individual battles and as a team they overran Kerry so let's not try to take the gloss off it by one unsavoury incident that had zero impact on the outcome. Let the authorities do their job and let Dublin and their fans enjoy the win which no one can argue they deserved. Congrats Dublin.

How dare you say something like that about a city you obviously know nothing about? Lazy racist rubbish, I'm surprised it got by the site administrators. Who do you think you are. Where does your sense of superiority come from? Pathetic.

McMahon's behaviour was terrible - again. There is no place in sport for anyone who gouges another persons eye.
How anyone can try to defend him is beyond me.
The offence warrants a lengthy ban from next years champioship. (Not likely to happen)

The behaviour of the Dubs is to bring total football and athletic excellence to the Gaa table since Jim Gavin took over at the helm. All the negative bias the panel , the fans and the city have been subjected to this season made yesterday's victory all the sweeter.

As I sat in the middle of nowhere in Western Australia last night watching the build up on Gaa Go I was bemused & amused to hear the entire Sunday Game panel rave about Kerry's kick passing game and yet no mention at all of Dublin's kick passing ethos you'd swear this Dublin team flung the ball around like a akin to a rugby team :)

The poisonous media coverage of the Dublin team during the weeks of the games with Mayo was farcical, (Joe.ie - Mayo founded ) , (Irish Independent - Mayo people on the Editorial org chart) and the Sunday Game (Kevin Mc Stay) were largely reasonable. How in this day and age sports journalism in Ireland cannot be non biased is a complete joke. But the time for moaning is over, it was a fantastic year we all know many of you love to hate us and secretly we like it.

On Philly what a guy and what a player, I hope his pants don't fall off at the celebrations with O'Shea and Gooch in his pockets :) (What player will ever mark two of the modern Gaa greats out of Croker again!)

Get off the stage good man. Firstly the best team won and the best team won the semi final when they best my own county. I also said at the time that I hoped Connolly would have his ban overturned, but this is different. Gouging is beyond cowardly, it is stupid and dangerous. He should receive a hefty suspension. And to bring up McStay? He loves the Dubs! Ciaran Whelan has been shocking and last night was cringe. He went to town on a Tyrone player for diving and then last night brushed over the gouging. McMahon is a class player and Dublin are a class team, but that is irrelevant here.

Let me first say Dublin were at least 7 points the better team and not surprised by their win. However Donaghy would have been much more annoyed about the obvious penalty that he did not get than been rubbed across the face. I thought the analysis on the Sunday game was poor again. The standard of football on the day was very poor and everyone kept blaming the weather. I have seen many games played in worst conditions without all the slipping and sliding- is there something seriously wrong with the surface. It is much more important to have a TMO to decide penalty decisions than to decide points.
