I'm not massaging any figures Mick, I specified that I was only counting league seasons where a final was played. This is how they would have finished if there was no pandemic. If Dublin and Kerry do play later on in the season, I think it's fair enough to judge the winner of that match the league champions. greatpoint (USA) - Posts: 427 - 03/07/2021 16:33:43 2355648 Link 2 |

Again of course you have your opinion and entitled to it but sure your still picking and choosing. The fact is Kerry have won 3 leagues since 17.Also Kerry biggest run without winning an all ireland was 11 years. So if they don't win this year it won't be their worst run yet. Also you are going through a period where Dublin have been majestic but the stats would show that Kerry are the most successful team after Dublin since 09.Kerry would have been rated much lower during their 11 year barren period..Most of their defeats have come against Dublin but as I say you ré entitled to your own view.

Your last comment is off the mark but can I just say that the majority of Donegal people don't spend their days chatting like a few on here so don't represent anything but a small minority of Donegal GAA fans.

I think you're missing the point Mick. Go back and read the first post of mine that you replied to.

1. Dublin Rightly deserve the No. 1 spot self-explanatory. supersub15 (Carlow) - Posts: 2909 - 05/07/2021 23:07:32 2356794 Link 0 |

I thought about that but where do you slot them in, Kildare had a convincing win, Westmeath won at their ease, so the only slot left was at 10, Meath just about shade it with their stout performance against Longford. Tyrone are out this week so we'll have another look, there's a bit to go yet and anything can happen. PS Where would you slot in Tyrone. supersub15 (Carlow) - Posts: 2909 - 06/07/2021 11:08:31 2356867 Link 1 |

I just read it again great point and you clearly state Kerry have fallen of a cliff in terms of contention as an all ireland contender. Again I say that's your opinion However I would say Kerry are a top contender and if not the number one contender to Dublin there are definately in the top 3 or 4 at worst.

Phenomenal point to win it. I still stand by my statement that I think Tyrone have better team. Taught Donegal were poor again today against weak opposition and just got over the line. Best of luck for rest of the year and would gladly be proved wrong but will need a massive improvement on today's performance sourmilk93 (Roscommon) - Posts: 1149 - 11/07/2021 18:16:39 2358708 Link 0 |
