    Congratulations Kerry 👏🏻👏🏻
    I had it on Sky Go as I was watching the cricket before the start of the football.

    Thoroughly deserved. That first half performance was ridiculous

    David Clifford only had possession for 43 seconds in last Sunday's All Ireland Final. Scored 0-9 from play.

    Former hurling star DJ Carey has been sentenced to five-and-a-half years in prison after a “reprehensible” act of defrauding people by falsely claiming to have cancer.

    The ex-Kilkenny hurler, 54, pleaded guilty in July to 10 counts of inducing family, friends and fans to give him almost 400,000 euros after stating he needed cancer treatment in the US.

    It’s like Bobby Charlton defrauding people. He was so highly rated as a hurler and, dare I say it, man.

    The town of Athlone has currently the Leinster GAA football championship after West Meath beat Dublin and the Connacht GAA football championship after Roscommon beat Galway.

    Sounds like a bit of a love in between Kerry and Donegal!

    Looking forward to Saturday. I agree with  Tomás Ó Sé, it’s Kerry’s to lose.

    Up the Kingdom!

    Let’s hope Kerry get a non Dub linked ref. Felt for Galway yesterday. 
    Louth result was fantastic and first semi final in 69 years

    Was the Kerry goal a square ball? Definitely over the line.

    What a series of saves and blocks by Kerry. Great defensive work 👏🏻👏🏻

    Maybe not that great…replay looks like the ball crossed the line.  Dubs not getting the rub with two big shouts.

    Does that mean the GAA is corrupt? 😎

    GAA use hawkeye but not goal line technology, looked over the line, The dubs have “scored” a lot of wides.

    Congratulations to Kerry. Much better game than yesterday and can see them overpowering Mayo in two weeks time 👏🏻👏🏻

    Job done. I didn’t think Kerry were at their best and they got the rub of the green but it’s over.

    I think it’s Kerry’s to lose really.

    At least Kerry are their provincial champions, unlike Mayo.

    AAjr has been getting in touch with his Mum’s roots by playing hurling and Gaelic football for the last couple of months. There’s a club over by Canary Wharf on a Tuesday night. 
    How old is he? As with everything, the younger, the better. I didn’t start playing until I was 18, got by with my football (soccer, always seem to play goal for most team at some time) & athleticism, had a good 10 years playing and won county championships and young player of the year. Still wished I played a lot younger. I played for St Anne’s, 7 of the team won a junior All Ireland playing for London against Cork in the final in ‘86.
    He’s 32 this August so started late and was never very sporty so it’s been a steep learning curve.
