The Dublin Juggernaut now at full steam, playing a brand of football that has the purists and traditionalists salivating. A team that has now clearly buried the perceived soft spots. ruanua (Donegal) - Posts: 4966 - 07/08/2011 15:11:44 1005638 Link 0 |
If you play like u did last night the dubs will be in the final.best all round team performance this year.Hopefully not get carried away or over hyped keep a lid on it and i think it could be your year.You should have beatn cork in the semi last year so you are a year wiser and hugrier. 93vintageyear (Derry) - Posts: 301 - 07/08/2011 15:41:25 1005659 Link 0 |
I feel the Dubs will edge it but there is no way in hell they're getting the space they got yesterday. Never mind the blanket defence, our defenders will be a lot closer to their men then the likes of McMahon were yesterday, I couldn't believe how much space Connolly and Brogan were getting (obviously their movement and the supply to them was a factor as well).

i wonder what price you would get on bernard brogan not scoring from play? dublin were decent last night but as i hav said, tyrone are no great shapes, and dublin have not beaten any decent team in a decade. i think dublin will lose the plot, donegal will foul 55 yards out, dublin will pump the ball in, it will come straight back out and after 50-60 mins the dubs will lose the plot and i think at least two dubs will get the line with frustration and donegal will pull away, we will then have dubs complaining onhere for the next few weeks about injustice, puke football etc. but everyone knows exactly what donegal are going to do, how dublin react is key. i would like to see dublin in a final as kerry or mayo would run out comfortable winners liathroidboy (Mayo) - Posts: 4921 - 07/08/2011 16:12:55 1005671 Link 0 |
dublin are on amission while donegal are sort of on a little adventure , it was never their plan to win the all ireland while from day 1 of this year all the dublin lads have had in their mind is the all ireland , they will be hard to break down though but i would be far more worried about playing kildare haz (Dublin) - Posts: 213 - 07/08/2011 16:32:08 1005684 Link 0 |

I`m confident the dubs will win. I was at the tyrone match and I was really impressed with the preformence. Alan brogan looks like he could be in for a all star he played great yesterday and connely played his game of the championship. Burnard after having an ok start to his championship he played great when we needed him to .The dubs are serios contenders for sam its likely we could meet kerry if we beat donegal but I wouldnt be surprised if it was mayo haz (Dublin) - Posts: 213 - 07/08/2011 17:03:00 1005713 Link 0 |
If Dublin carry that form into the game, I would suggest they win. Brogan/Connelly were awesome last night - although, they did have the freedom on the park which you know they won't get from Donegal, however - Their scores, from distance in particular with left/right boot means they are a serious threat to the type of game that Donegal play.

dublin will be hyped up and over confident and alot of pressure on them which will give donegal a chance as no one is expecting anything from them so donegal mite scrape it james062 (Tipperary) - Posts: 9 - 07/08/2011 17:35:02 1005742 Link 0 |

Dublin peaked last night , downhill from here on in . Dont have the bottle to get to the final ! .. Donegals negative style will prove too much for them healy96 (Westmeath) - Posts: 177 - 07/08/2011 18:24:06 1005806 Link 0 |
Dublin all day long for me. Just don't know where Donegal will get the scores from, Dublin's forwards are a class above. Both teams play blanket defence, but Dublin can break out much quicker by virtue of the quality long passing into the Brogans and Connolly, where as with Donegal it's more of a running game and a more laborious attack - they'll get few scores against the Dubs. Dublin won't beat them by much, but they will beat them. artisan (Down) - Posts: 1794 - 07/08/2011 18:25:20 1005808 Link 0 |
I cee a Donegal win, Dublin wont score 0-22 against Donegal. Kildare were a high scoring team and only scored 12 points in 90 minutes. The bookies likely will go for an easy dublin win but probably a few points either way and likely to Donegal. tullyframerover (Down) - Posts: 276 - 07/08/2011 18:31:31 1005814 Link 0 |
