Dublin have become so so sloppy after sending off.

The big difference Dublin have a good goalie Kerry goalie cost them 1 5 today. Very pedestrian today. On a side note ref poor today both sides

I would just like to point out that Fermanagh only lost by 8 to the Dubs ;)

In all honesty scoreline wasn't a fair reflection of the game. What was Kealey at for the first goal?

Sound beating for Kerry. Very poor on their own kickouts, and a few players who simply don't have the legs anymore. Dublin always had another gear while Kerry looked like they were struggling to keep it competitive.

Ugly scenes at the end between Flynn and Sheehan.

hard to see anyone compete with Dublin in the summer.People say whats the point of them in Leinster,but sure Kerry can't even compete with them,its not just a Leinster problem.

Terrible game after the sending off. Very pedestrian affair. It's a pity as we now must wait until August for a proper game of inter county football match...

Kerry were poor Dublin better but every fifty fifty decision went Dublins way with yet another Leinster referee in Dublin.Why are Dublin always refereed by Coldrick or Kinnsella in Croke Park.

Things went Dublin way today if you took Kealy out it I would be very confident. Mahoney should know better.

Ziggy up to sending off Kerry foot on foot. Don't be fooled by sides pedestrian

Agree. He was being held an awful lot and got nothing from the ref. Aidan o Se and Michael Murphy are the same, they are refereed differently to 99% of players. Unfortunately it's yet another game where the standard of refereeing is again an issue.

Dublin have now beaten Kerry 5 times in a row I beleive.The sending off made a difference to the end scoreline,but Kerry worked very hard,Dubs would have pulled away anyway.

Now that was a proper beating, Kealy or no Kealy, Kerry competed well for spells but we were clearly the better team and could even afford to miss a penalty. If we had of been sharper we could have had another goal or two, what can you say about Bernard Brogan, one of the greats. Roll on the summer!

Never let me hear a Kerry man criticising Donegal for being cynical or playing a blanket defence again. Shocking cynical from Kerry today and 14 behind the ball for long periods today. How Donaghy got through almost the full game without a card is laughable. Sheehan epitomising Kerry as sore losers at the end!
P.s. I bet Paul Durcan had a smirk watching the Dubs second goal today!

Always happens with a big man.Joe Sheridan used to have the same issues playing for Meath,lads pulling and dragging out of him but a free rarely given..

Kinsella was poor and refs who have controversy follow them around the way he does should not be reffing big matches. I believe he was in charge of the disaster between Kerry and Donegal. That alone should have ruled him out of this fixture.

Have to agree. Dublin got most of the calls but that's not why Kerry lost. Dublin now have the same mental affect on Kerry as Kerry do on Cork and Mayo; they wilt before your eyes at the sight of the blue shirt. Although Kerry WERE hard done by from Kinsella, who is a poor referee, it was nonetheless also good to see Sheehan and Donaghy get a taste of their own medicine for a change. It was a very poor game with a methodical Dublin largely going through the motions. They may as well hand them the National League and SAM for the next 5 yesrs and that is the problem. It was BORING. I turned over to watch Leicester and Swansea.
