Advanced Mark is going to destroy the art of defending. Brilliant defending by Louth in the 44th minute only for the ball to be taken back for the Mark.

After all the hype, what an absolute anti climax. Mayo brilliant of course but theyve not come up against much. Almost a hindrance going into the final.

Congrats to our western cousins and best of luck in the final.
A non event of a game today though,could have done with a tougher test.

Fair play Mayo, when the players are on form that brand of football is very very hard to stop

Ádh mór in the final

Mayo as easy winners against Louth as Donegal was against Meath last year. Interesting both were only 4 points in front at half time.

So many pundits that was tipping Louth to win was music to Mayo's ears and many of those pundits are generally wrong and how wrong they were today.

Unfortunately from a neutral point of view it was another non competitive contest in knock out championship football and hopefully the semi-final tomorrow and final is better viewing.

Mayo can only beat what's in front of them. Louth have more in them than that, but Mayo rolled over them.
A comprehensive victory and they are back to whete they want to be. Mayo will be praying for a Dub victory!

Cue Fionn predicting that Dublin may face a similar fate tomorrow:)

Well done Mayo , poor ould Louth couldn't cope playing a Div 1 team.

Thats Cork, Meath and Louth accounted for since their back to back defeats and they are in an All Ireland final..
Seems mad!
