Poor stuff all round so far - anyone want to win this?? Commentators referral to Donal Vaughan as 'Donie' is ruining game for me :-(

This game can be won. Couple of bad breaks but if we get one or two of our own we should get back. Aidan being assaulted again and no protection. Goal he got looked fair to me.

Agreed. Very poor viewing. I know the weather is bad so one can forgive the mistakes. Has the intensity of an O'Byrne cup game.

Why was the Mayo goal disallowed?

not looking good for Mayo at half time. Goals win matches. They have none. What is Aidan O Shea doing in midfield? He is needed in the full forward line- to get goals. Also Mayo should bring on Connor O Shea. I cannot see Dublin losing regardless.

Have to say RTE arre unreal at half time.

No mention of Connolly who should had a black card and they defended the 3rd man tackle from James McCarthy!

This is unreal - a poor game littered with errors you wouldn't see at U12. Whoever lifts the cup deserves a kick up the ars!

If Dublin are winning will we get the usual 5 minutes extra time we have been used to in the past few games or will he blow bang on the 70

I think it is safe to say neither side deserved to win that. Maybe they will both go away, forget the stupid silly stuff and come back and play some football. As a Dub, MacAuley, Rock, McManamon and Brogan not at the races at all today, no way is MacAuley a starter.

Yeah, he cleared O'Connor out. You won't see a more clear cut black next year.

Is Brogan showing signs of been past it?
