Great game with Ross & Cork and a deserved win for the westerners!

Is that so Roundball?. If that's true then it was a very good and brave call from the ref.

Agree with Slasher on his overall performance though.

Fully desreved win by Roscommon.By far the better side.

Is a foot block a black card? Just when the Cavan lad had a shoot for goal early in game the Dublin defender put his foot out, yes ball went over bar but is it?

We'll done Rosscommon on reaching the final. Thought you were the better team, however I must say the ref was very poor. At one stage I counted 5 frees in a row that went to Rosscommon, all dubious. Anyway, hope you lads win it now..

Yup.

Technical Fouls. Rule 4.3- To lift the ball off the ground with the knees.

I would agree with yourself and Slasher though- he did give Ros a few soft ones, although he was technically correct on some of those as well I thought.

The only disapointing thing for the Rossies was how they needed an injury time score to win a match they were so dominant in.Roscommon were 7/8 points the better team.A small chink in the armour for whoever they meet in final.

Hard luck to Cork. A biased view this maybe but Roscommon were by far the better team. The first 10 minutes cork were the better side and used their physical presence to good effect however from there on Roscommon were all over cork. At no point did cork look a better side. 2 of corks goals came from Roscommon mistakes. Cadogan and McEoin were good but apart from that there was no forward of note. It was even enough at midfield but the bulk of corks scores came from Roscommon mistakes. As for the Referee I agree he didn't have a good game but Cork should have had a red card when their no 7 completely went for Ronan Daly with a shoulder after the ball was played. There should have been a couple of Black cards I think Mullooly should have had one for pulling the cork player back near the end which the goal came from. The last free was a free I think as it was a foul before the pick up. Smith was clearly pulled down. Murtagh showed some stones to point that but really it should not have come to that. It would have been an injustice of massive proportions if Roscommon lost that game. The other game at the moment looks pure pants compared to the previous game.

Bad wides from Dublin, Cavan deserve their lead, some nice scores!

Good game here dubs missing a few easy scores, Cavan tackling well and getting ball in early to full forward line who have the beaten of the dubs backs. Dubs got to keep running at there defence to hopefully draw frees, this could to down to last kick of game also.

Once again a Dublin team is getting all the decisions from the ref...what does a Cavan player have to do to get a free? And Dublin corner back should be gone for a rugby tackle.

Poor enough standard in comparison to 1st game.

Dublin so wasteful and doing too many silly handpasses. Cavan creating chances at ease while we have to work very hard for ours. If we don't improve we'll be on our way out, but I still fancy us to win simply because I can't see us playing as badly as we did in the first 30 again.

Lively game so far, Cavan slightly the better team, Dubs haven't really settled. This game is there for us we're dominating them at midfield and our forwards have the beating of the Dubs backs. We're not playing as defensively as I imagined. Dublin when they run at us are causing problems with pace but we've coped reasonably well, felt the ref was harsh enough with 1 or 2 of their frees. Overall hunger will win this one, there won't be more than3 points in it. C'mon lads drive it home!!!

No 15 committed a blatant foot trip and then went in and knelt on Cavan player...result...no card of any description...Dublin playing puke football

Woeful Dublin performance so far.Was expecting a lot better.

cuederocket (Dublin) - Posts: 5084 - 19/04/2014 17:36:31    1577077

Cavan by far the only team that has turned up to play football

Cavan no great shakes either.Rossies to win it out for me.
