Jesus a lot of happy chappies in Dublin after removal of the terminator Clifford and his band of merry men. I was happy for Cork for 5 mins but then realized apart form Donegal there is nobody left to give ye a game. Mayo might be lucky and get over Galway but 8 green horns in the team hardly whats going to dethrone ye. Maybe Donegal will make it hard for a while but thats about it club51 (Mayo) - Posts: 343 - 09/11/2020 13:48:20 2306805 Link

Lots of twists and turns yet - playing week in week out in Winter conditions, anything can happen. We need to take one game at a time, or else we will end up like kerry with egg on our face. Any from Donegal, Mayo or Galway could realistically win Sam this year. Or even Meath - if RD is looking in...! Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3337 - 09/11/2020 14:01:07 2306812 Link

It got easier no doubt but Dublin are on the tougher side having to play a battle hardened Ulster side so no guarantee they'll even make the final never mind winning #6 There's history to play for this year Not only a 6 in a row or a 5.25 But there's a record to match dating back to the 1970s Dubs side who reached 6 finals in a row with no back door needed. jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20167 - 11/11/2020 18:38:19 2307722 Link
6 in a Row in the bag..... well it is now...! Wow - I didnt think we would win this year with Jim gone, Jack gone, Dermo gone .... It is an incredible achievement by this team..... it really is.... 6 All Ireland Titles in a Row - still has not set in.... buzzing for the half dozen as many have said... ;o) Unbelievable hunger, desire, unrelenting will to win, and truly super ability by these Dublin players. Their joyous celebrations at full time showed me that they still have the appetite for more... but I wont mention next year and what is up for grabs... Dublin's 8th Sam Maguire in 10 glorious years and 30th overall. We registered six of the last seven points to win Sam this year, and went through the Championship without conceding a single goal. Quite remarkable. 10 Leinster Titles in a Row also... And to Davy Byrne - I eat my hat buddy.... ;o) #Du6s #LEGENDS #The Joy of Six #6inaRow Atha Cliath Abú. Come on the Du6s ps. To Mayo - sincerest hard luck guys... you ran us sooo close for so much of that game - it was a real battle. Fair play... Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3337 - 19/12/2020 21:39:14 2324167 Link

An enjoyable game but full of errors by both teams. Not that that will both youse. The short turn around and short season should discourage any retirements. Huge incentive now for those select players to win one more and be clear at 9 AI medals on their own. Some operators! foreveryoung (USA) - Posts: 151 - 20/12/2020 02:26:34 2324337 Link

The greatest Gaelic footballers ever to have represented Dublin without a shadow of a doubt. We are truly privileged to have lived through this era and to have witnessed history in the making. They are truly legends. I have said it before, but I will repeat it again "These are the 'Rare Old Times'!!!!!! PatdeB16 (Dublin) - Posts: 9 - 20/12/2020 14:29:29 2324575 Link
