I was at the Dublin v Kerry game earlier in the year and an understrength Dublin looked comfortable versus an understrength Kerry team. At full strength in September they also looked comfortable. Dublin are better. That said, Kerry have the best chance of beating them. They are guaranteed to meet each other in All-Ireland semifinal in August. No doubt Eamon Fitz has an eye on that game already (if not both eyes). They should keep their cards close to their chest and forget the league. Dublin are the best team but a loss in that game in August and their season will be over on the same day that it starts - that will hurt them and give Kerry folk every where much more pleasure than any league title. bennybunny (Cork) - Posts: 3917 - 30/03/2016 21:51:05 1839482 Link 0 |
Listen very carefully, I shall say this only once. The league is championship preparation. The right call has been made to the end the semi-final nonsense. It's a league, not a championship. Allianz have been good sponsors and deserve the final day and the publicity that goes on around that. End of. Ciarraí abú! :) legendzxix (Kerry) - Posts: 7873 - 30/03/2016 21:51:38 1839483 Link 0 |
The make up of the league semi finals will dictate a lot, as a punter Dublin at 8/13 are no bad price, Kerry at 5/2 the only real alternative....if Dublin draw Roscommon in particular or Donegal they are in the final...Kerry would have firepower to gain revenge v Rossies but Donegal would be a very interesting match post Tralee the last day. hurler32 (Limerick) - Posts: 867 - 31/03/2016 12:03:55 1839600 Link 0 |
Funninly enough the league as the 7 league games do matter and show where the current panel/team stands. woops (Kerry) - Posts: 2073 - 31/03/2016 12:09:44 1839606 Link 0 |
Ya whoops, I'd say Eamonn would like to get a League Trophy onto his CV. No harm in going for a title every few years, its 2009 since our last one and that's a good bit ago for a county like Kerry. TheHermit (Kerry) - Posts: 6354 - 31/03/2016 12:25:52 1839608 Link 0 |
Kerry don't try and win the league every year? Why wouldn't you? Surely a Mickey Mouse competition like the Munster championship with 5 hurling counties involved wouldn't make any difference to Kerry trying to win the league? So you's have won the league more than anyone else but when you's don't win it it's cause you's didn't try? clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 31/03/2016 12:53:39 1839621 Link 0 |
You see Clondalkin Kerry don't have any inferiority complex., We've been the top dogs in this sport for over 100 years. We don't need to pick up every shinning little trophy that's on offer just to convince ourselves to prove to everyone we are a big deal.

I know ye are very bitter about the last 5 years we are the dominant force in the land and it ain't changing anytime soon looking at the production line of young elite talent flowing throughout our underage teams BlueGolconda (Dublin) - Posts: 39 - 31/03/2016 14:10:07 1839654 Link 0 |

That's funny I seem to remember Kerry winning an All Ireland in 2014 and our minors winning All Ireland's in 2014 and 2015. TheHermit (Kerry) - Posts: 6354 - 31/03/2016 14:20:53 1839661 Link 0 |

Blue. The dubs are on the way down. Kerry will take over again. They a great batch of young lads coming through along with experience lads there. Throw in Moran, gouch, sheehan and odonog hue were injured going into last year final. They won't slip this year plus Donaghy should had penalty in final JimmyFloyd (Wexford) - Posts: 50 - 31/03/2016 15:08:09 1839691 Link 0 |
