I've seen 3 minutes of this game and I can say the ref ain't going to give Derry a thing. 2maroonjerseys (Galway) - Posts: 30 - 16/07/2023 16:05:07 2494808 Link
McQuillan giving Derry absolutely heehaw. Ulsterman (Antrim) - Posts: 9719 - 16/07/2023 16:28:35 2494816 Link
Shocking decision by McQuillan. That should have been a straight red card for the Kerry keeper. Awful refereeing. Ulsterman (Antrim) - Posts: 9719 - 16/07/2023 16:34:54 2494817 Link
Kerry goalkeeper lucky to be on the field cuchulainn35 (Armagh) - Posts: 1676 - 16/07/2023 16:36:25 2494818 Link
Replying To cuchulainn35: "Kerry goalkeeper lucky to be on the field" He got that arseways, Clifford's shoulder fair but gets booked while very dangerous play from the goalie, knew exactly what he was doing. Derry playing brilliant stuff. Great game. MachaireConnacht (Roscommon) - Posts: 809 - 16/07/2023 16:43:45 2494822 Link
I don't know how McQuillan gets away with reffing these big games. Shocking ref Breffni1969 (Cavan) - Posts: 510 - 16/07/2023 16:43:54 2494823 Link
I'm actually very annoyed - if that was a club game or yesterdays matches , if either of the 4 counties did that yesterday - it would have been a straight red… Kerry goalkeeper took the man out …. cuchulainn35 (Armagh) - Posts: 1676 - 16/07/2023 16:45:09 2494824 Link
Very interesting first half, McKaigue vs Clifford as expected is a complete mismatch. Referee has got a lot of big decisions very wrong - Kerry keeper could have walked for that challenge. Clifford yellow was crazy. Derry well poised, when they decide to play football - they are a serious team. Still think Kerry will have a bit too much hyperache (Meath) - Posts: 209 - 16/07/2023 16:46:48 2494825 Link
Keeper should be gone. Kerry supporters call him Dublin Joe????? Liffeylad (Dublin) - Posts: 74 - 16/07/2023 16:49:39 2494827 Link
Derry have wasted some amount of forward possession, can they hang in? realdub (Dublin) - Posts: 8603 - 16/07/2023 17:24:44 2494834 Link
A game Derry could and should have won. 1. McKaigue should have been off Clifford after 20 mins. He was roasted. Poor management call by Derry. 2. Kerry keeper should have walked, it was a straight red. McQuillan's calls against Derry were dreadful. 3. Derry lost composure in the last 10 mins and gave away some very cheap ball. 4. Derry had several goal chances they didn't take. 5. Mickley Harte Tyrone would have closed the game out in Derry's position. Ulsterman (Antrim) - Posts: 9719 - 16/07/2023 17:40:04 2494835 Link

Best team lost. Derry will rue that. Refs seriously need to look at Kerrys cynical fouling when they loose their men out the field. TheUsername (Dublin) - Posts: 4446 - 16/07/2023 17:45:22 2494839 Link
Derry were robbed by 2 bad decisions by the ref. Very unfortunate because the ref had a very good game apart from this. Hard luck Derry farneygael (Monaghan) - Posts: 277 - 16/07/2023 17:45:25 2494840 Link
Replying To realdub: "Derry beat themselves, big chance wasted." Derry best all over except on the scoreboard. A few silly mistakes and a few poor calls from management. What about that "arse to chest" charge by the Kerry keeper?. I'd say that is a new one, not covered by the rule book. Having said all that, Kerry are through and after that test I fancy them to hang onto Sam for another year. Freethinker (Wicklow) - Posts: 1018 - 16/07/2023 17:47:58 2494842 Link
Derry might never have a better chance to beat Kerry. Shane McGuigan lobbing the ball over at the end was such an anti climax. I know he didn't mean it because he was rubbing his head, but it cleared the crossbar by miles!! ballydalane (Kilkenny) - Posts: 1246 - 16/07/2023 17:48:47 2494843 Link
A bit like that free against John Daly in last years final when coming out with the ball(can anyone remember that type of free being given this year), Kerry got a serious leg up from the ref today. 65 minutes gone, not able to get a score, 2 points down and Stephen O'Brien gets one of the softest frees we will see this year. smallfrank (Galway) - Posts: 372 - 16/07/2023 17:50:54 2494844 Link
Great Match, Great result. 2 teams that will play football to fight out what should be a great final. giveitlong (Galway) - Posts: 1228 - 16/07/2023 17:56:16 2494846 Link

Whatever about refereeing decisions, most games have talking points. But Derry had more than enough ball in the Kerry half. realdub (Dublin) - Posts: 8603 - 16/07/2023 17:56:40 2494847 Link
