the egos have been well and truly punctured, no gloating from Kerry because they're proper footballers

374722 Dublin = Donegal. . . Donegal = Dublin. Rubbish

That's insulting to Donegal. Donegal were much better.

I'm not going to slag Dublin at all, I know how it feels to be in your position at the moment. However you have to applaud Kerry, especially in that first half. I think Declan O'Sullivan is one of the most naturally gifted footballers I've ever seen, lovely to watch.

I just have a question for Kevin McStay. How come when Donegal are outclassed and hammered by Cork, it's what you expected, and we never should have been in the last 8 in the first place, yet when the Dubs are outclassed and hammered by Kerry, they're not that bad and Kerry were just phenomenal? Blatant media bias again, McStay should try looking at things a bit more objectively like, in fairness to him, Brolly did before the game.

Still, it's hard on the Dubs, just the manner of the defeat to what everyone thought was an ailing Kerry side. Fair play to Kerry footballers, great football.

jow soap they are told what to say- its money driven you aint allowed talk bad about dublin or else you aint gonna be a pundit for rte- its the sky sports model regarding dublin you have to say they are brilliant to keep the money flowing i wouldnt look too much into it- the lads would have being briefed all through the second half to make sure dublin came out looking all right when the opposite was evidently the case

In fairness now Brolly talked a lot of sense prior to the game, I was surprised because you'd presume most folk would be tipping Dublin but he said to be doubting Kerry was ridiculous as this was basically Pillar Caffreys side and what's changed? And sure look, he was right. I don't often say it about a Derry man but his love of Michael Murphy has made him a bit more likeable!

Again it highlights the importance of the league. Dublin were abysmal in the league and even lost a warm up to Louth. You don't change things over night no matter what the media coverage.

I lambasted the Dubs after the Galway league match in Salthill and I got abused for it. I was proved very right today.

And to think my team had were level with Kerry after 61 minutes last week and we didn't even have home advantage!!
