Jesus Meath were awful in the second half. How can you not at least work a short kickout with an extra man.

Replying To legendzxix:  "Round 1 - 2025 away wins: Tyrone over Donegal, Dublin over Galway and Cavan over Mayo. Wounded animals after provincial knockout are dangerous. The extra time to prepare and being able to scout finals in full knowledge of the next opponent is a bizarre reward for provincial knockout. Today's result in Killarney was no surprise. I was saying during the club championships that there were going to be a few counties in contention. While the vast majority disagreed at the time, that's not the case now."
The current system didn't seem to do Cork nor Galway any harm after their recent provincial finals. Their respective opponents had much more time to prepare and scout. It's only poor ould Kerry that the system seems to be against.

-Booing of Murphy very bad form from the Kerry crowd, and it wasn't just a small section. It was bellowing around Fitzgerald Stadium.
-Kerry fans leaving with 15-20 minutes of the game still to play, also very bad form.
-Their foul and dirty play caught up with Kerry today. Lucky to have had only one player get the line.

Murphy's on his 90th championship cap for Donegal still some operator.
