Replying To S1234:  "I don't ' hate ' Donegal I'm not mad on you lot though . For obvious reasons. One thinking your above mayo and better all around even though you lot have won just 2 all Irelands is laughable ! I never fear you lot when playing you haha"

Replying To peiledoir20:  "I think a lot of people knew #13 was no where near the level but Sunday confirmed it."

Replying To Up4it.:  "I agree... they'll be out of their depth with the big teams."

Replying To eunans4ever:  "When and where are glenties / Fintown out in ulster club action ??"

Replying To StopTheLights:  "The whole country is sick of McGuinness's non stop whining. Let's re-write the rules for Jim."

Replying To Temple56:  "Dublin 4/5? Are you mad?
They won six All Irelands in row and no one in Ulster got near them in that time!
Dublin would have won the last 10 Ulster's at a canter. No Ulster team have beat Dublin in championship since 2014!
It's not nice to hear because yee up in Ulster think it's a great competition which it is! However, if Dublin were in it over the last 10 years it would be in the same position as Leinster at the moment"

Replying To SurelyToGod:  "Gallen might have been presented the trophy, but Hughie was far and away the man of the match despite only playing 35 mins and I was delighted to see him cap off the performance with the final point.

Himself and Moore are playing at such a high level right now each and every week."

Replying To eunans4ever:  "Fantastic engine and an exciting talent.

Hopefully glenties/fintown won't try claim he's theirs too…..

Not sure if he b a corner back- his best qualities are in the attacking half of the field.

It's interesting watching the messiah trying to find his best role - he's tried him at half forward , midfield and half back.

He clearly rates him and wants him in the team - just trying to find out where to get the maximum return"

Replying To Pope_Benedict:  "That 'certainty' didn't materialise. The turnout was higher than the 2018 presidential election."

Replying To hlynch12:  "Have 200 on

Kerry
Galway
Mayo
Monaghan

Kerry and Galway will be walkovers
Monaghan and Mayo could be close."

Replying To S1234:  "Cavans great performance they were average in Castlebar. Mayo threw the game in Castlebar ."

Replying To TheFlaker:  "I love how lads waited to see how today went and are now replying as it's safe. Carr was never the man for the job. Never said that was his fault. Murphy would still be there if the thing was handled differently and other men had got the job. People close to the ground will tell you that. One win at home against a shadow Kerry team doesn't make a summer."

Replying To eddieSize5Balls:  "Most posts in here are about the abuse Murphy and McGuinness are getting instead of thr actual game or plan for 2027.
Murphy has been asking for trouble especially how he's played since she's came back.
Jim has some to complain about even after we win games.
If you're in the public eye, deal with it.

Regarding the actual game and squad. How can Jim and anyone in here say we gassed out because we're playing games back to back? We played what 11 championship games last year mostly back to back and we looked fine until the final. Such a lazy excuse.
We looked poor against down when we were fresh enough and now we can safely say we only battered Kerry in Killarney due to the red card and then likely not taking it seriously. If we played them on Sunday we would have lost by 15+.

Hugh will likely retire but small odds, we need to move on from him.
Ryan will give it another go I think but he's 33 I believe or at least will be come next season.
Murphy can come back at 37/38 if he wants but he's should only be a sub.
Thompson was a big miss sure but he's also 32 I believe.
After doing his ACL, how much use will he be?


We need to get Niall OD back and tbh he has a chance to start considering how hit or miss Gallen and COD can be.

Langan and McGee were both phenomenal this year I thought. They deserved so much better from everyone else.

I just don't know who's going to fill up the bench to help in 2027. We don't have the players in the county.
It's in midfield and forward line that needs way better options of the bench. Defence will always sort itself.
I know we have a small bunch of young attackers from Aodh Rua and Four Masters coming through but they didn't get much time this year, are they truly the future? Max and Shay had good first years but they need to bulk up.

as people have said time and time again we really need a left foot free taker. Do we have any options around the county?

For goals , we need Patton. His kickouts are aimed to players whereas Gavin is just hit and hope. About 3 times in a row yesterday he aimed for his left hand side and it went out of play or safely into the hands of a dub. Not to mention his poor kickout changed the game. But fair enough, most keepers make mistakes in the new game.He's better to have on if we are a team that get a lot of frees like say a Monaghan but the way we play we don't get scoreable frees as often as I'd like.

I'd like to believe we can win it next year but unless we strengthen our bench and the inconsistent forwards cop on, We won't. However if Jim is back then I'll believe he believes we have a chance at least.

Replying To GreenandRed:  "If there were no 2 pointers the tactics would have been different. You can understand that? Quit with the if or should scenarios and living in the past. Cavan beat us well. Galway, Donegal closed out their games well. End of. I say us but I don't believe for one second that you're from Mayo with all the trolling you do here."

Replying To eunans4ever:  "Massive congrats to Glenties/Fintown - worthy champions.

The ballybofey Doherty's along with Ethan and Ciaran Thomo were simply fantastic.

Great to see them actually go all out yesterday - difficult to understand why they don't do it more regular as they are well capable.

One big factor that stood out for me yesterday was their level of conditioning, sharpness along with unreal fitness levels - massive compliment to the st Eunans fitness coach in the camp.

Best of luck in ulster.."

Replying To crafty:  "Galway seem to be happy to be there. They don't look like a team with belief. Players just not good enough."

Replying To S1234:  "They might want to try winning their first championship match in croker since 1982 ...."

Replying To S1234:  "Lol it was a fair spot for both sides but it McGuiness and Donegal crowd so don't expect much more then that from ye .
Ye beat knocked us out by the last kick of the game hardly a hammering is it ."

Replying To rorysboys:  "Sitting back reading the posts it's the same old story. I seen too many false dawns. We need to respect every team it's Cavan or Tyrone next have we a given right to beat them no we don't we'll have to perform again. From speaking to few knowledgeable gaa men last night they were all saying the hype will be starting now look what happened Derry when they believed things that were being said about them.. as I said cool the jets it's only an Ulster quarter final.. as for the posters targeting me kop on I m as much a Donegal man as most of yous. Petty little people having a go after a great win. Next Sunday will probably be most of yous first game all year. lol."
