With Kerry are biggest rivals having problems on and off the field .The time has come for the Dubs to put down a marker to become Champions in 09.The word coming from the Dublin camp is positive and there ready to take on the baton as favourites.The Jacks are back

To be honest tomaoo , I don't think we'll be winning Sam this year (would love to be wrong on that one!!) I think Cork are the team to beat with Tyrone and Kerry in the reckoning too.

Thats the problem with the Dubs, too much talking. Do your talking on the pitch like Tyrone, Kerry and Cork

Toma007, foolish in the extreme if you believe that Kerry are having "problems on and off the filed" it's a very very old trick also even if they did fall by the wayside the Dubs would not be next in line by a long shot!

Don't you mean We are Dublin - We fall asleep for 20 mins every time we play

so what if kerry are having problems, dublin are nowhere near the standard of kerry, cork, or tyrone.......actualy looking at the way they played against a poor meath side, i wouldnt be surprised if westmeath beat them on sunday

^ You forgot that line Tomaoo7! ^ Im not kicking kerry when there down,they are the one team we have hight of respect for,but there is something going on in that camp and it doesnt look good for kerry this year.We have to step up the mark

Dublins time may have come and gone without them achieving what they really want. Fancy the winners of Kildare/Laois to claim Leinster this year.

I would like to think so, but I doubt it, a lot of new players being blooded which may be good for the future but a bit soon for them this year I think.

Pj you know way it is over hyped when you win over hyped when you lose.Dont buy it to this rubbish were not capable,in 07 semi v kerry they beat us by 2 points they hammered cork.06 semi freak result last year freak result were not so far away.05 tyrone say that was there best team they should'nt have beaten us.Dublin are in the top 4 just need another paddy russell to get us over the line.

tomaoo??Are you that in love with the dubs you can't even admit to obvious shortfalls!can't see that young lad holding his place in the corner,can see bastick getting the run around on sunday,and ross mcconnell wouldn't get anywhere near any of the other top teams,and you slag us about the hammering mayo took against kerry,well how about i just call it a freak result?i'd still fancy them to sneak leinster but thats the lot,you're the most unrealistic poster i've seen when it comes to dublin football!

I've never slagged off any team from the west get your facts right johnny,and the couple of things you pointed out are fair comment.But we have at least 6 weeks to get things right im sure giller will.And when it comes to the last 8 we'll be ready for anything .

tomaoo7 (Dublin) - Posts: 5896 - 26/06/2009 12:44:06    323811

Sorry tomaoo,maybe slagged is too strong a word,but you have mentioned the 06 result and you didn't seem to think it was a freak result!look all i'm saying is you shouldn't talk up the dubs,its very annoying when the only thing the team has done in the last 5 years is get older!its always always best to keep the head down and say nothing!
