And some. Kerry just had a breakaway and looked certain to score a badly needed goal. 3 brilliant blocks from the Mayo team. They are running away with this. Great game so far from Mayo.
Mayo were just so much quicker & fitter today. Kerry couldn't live with them at all. Good few cards in the 2nd half. Haven't worked out yet who's in or out of the final. Looking forward to Tyrone beating Dublin tomorrow in the other game.
If Dublin win tomorrow, I'm absolutely with you...
Sniffle!!!...
Just getting over being completely outplayed.
On the bright side, the U17s won their All-Ireland final earlier on Sunday (including a nephew who played with a knackered hamstring - so he lacks a bit in the traditional family intelligence).

Christ @NornIrishAddick that was absolutely pathetic from The Red Hands! Friends from Strabane were all in Croke and couldn't believe how poor they were. Hoping Mayo at least put up a fight in a few weeks time.
Looking forward to the hurling this week. Up the Déise!!

Pathetic might be being overly kind. The best thing, when playing Dublin, is to have them expect to win, and not be up to speed from the throw in - because the home advantage goes a bit sour if they get ambushed early enough and find themselves down by a few (or more points) after about 20 minutes.
It will be interesting to see what happens with Mickey Harte. TBH, he probably should have gone a number of years ago. What has kept him in the job has been the relative weakness of Ulster football of late (you don't really get the feeling that an Ulster team, at the moment, can really push powerful opposition).
It's difficult to see where a change in Tyrone tactics will come from, as Harte seems a bit fixated on the one approach to the game when playing the important matches (a bit like KR, except a bit less Scouse, and with a few more decades of the Rosary - Mickey Harte is very Godly, to an extent that would worry me, even if I wasn't an atheist - the team says a decade together before each game).
Watched from overseas, but the bloody Sky feed kept sticking. Said at half time that Mayo would regret the "easy" wides. They were the best footballing side today, but paid the price. Ridiculous sending off as well, when the Dub was already heading off and Mayo had the free. You could see his teammate going WTF! Idiotic and probably cost them the game (with the free being reversed and a great opportunity missed).
The Curse of '51 allegedly prevents Mayo from winning the Sam Maguire Cup ever again, or at least until the death has occurred of every member of the last winning team from 1951. It remains unbroken—despite the team reaching the final on nine occasions since then, they have either completely collapsed on the day or been undone by a series of other unfortunate events.
The legend tells us that while the boisterous Mayo team were passing through Foxford on the victorious journey home, the team failed to wait quietly for a funeral cortège to pass by on its way to the graveyard. The presiding priest consequently put a curse on Mayo football to never win a subsequent All-Ireland Final until all members of the 1951 team are dead.
Following the death of Fr Peter Quinn in January 2016, there now only remains 3 living members of the 1951 All Ireland winning team, Pádraig Carney, Paddy Prendergast and Dr Micky Loftus of Crossmolina.

So, what you're saying, really, is that Mayo should replace Elverys' on their shirts with Lemony Snicket....

Sounds like they mullered Kerry.

None of us want to see the County Board have to engage the services of a hit man.

Probably will watch Kerry hopefully brush Cork to one side. But with am eye or ear on the Sweden Germany game.
Ciarrai abu!
