Because I can post our results vs Leinster teams from that era and trust me it won't look pretty for ye."
If I was a meath man I'd be more concerned with the dire state of intercounty & club football in Meath.
How many times in the last few years have the best team in Meath ( o mahonys ) got a trimming in the first round of the leinster championship?
Yet you've lads like Royal and fellas from Offaly saying we are deluded.
I'd say ye have more to be worrying about than the demise of Kerry football.

Leinster teams won 9 of the 20 All-Irelands in the 1970s and 1980s which was pretty good.

I would maintain this isn't Dublins year, Kerry remain roaring hot favourates or me, that not cute hoorisim its an opinion. Have been to every Dublin game this year and i dont think we will win an All Ireland with our full back line. I think the draw for the qualifiers is also a huge disadvantage, it will be an All Ireland won well if it happnens which i doubt.

Really frail again Vs Westmeath and a better team would have scored two goals against us, also very suspect on the high diagonal ball in.

The only mitigation i would throw in is that VS Aidan O Shea, Michael Murphy and the bald tall fella of Kerry, Cian O' Sullivan, Jimmy Mac (whose injury i believe isnt as bad as feared) dropped back to full back.

This is the year of another team if its going t be done it will be this year if Jack, ROC come back and Con O C turns into the player we expect Dublin will be a force for a long time.
