Kobe is a joy to watch. Don't think Clifford even was that influential at his age

Replying To Belclare98:  "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!"
Mayo did not suffer back to bavk defeats. The sequeunce was WiN LOSS WiN LOSS WIN WIN WIN.

Moran was fairly tetchy in that press conference. Understand that's not the question you want to hear after getting to an AI final, but to say your county has been starved the past four or five years - starved how? Of All-Ireland finals? Of Connacht finals? There's many counties that haven't been in All-Ireland finals for decades, or haven't won their provincial in ages. That's what being starved is.

But he's right. The pundits tipped Meath. The pundits tipped Louth and if Kerry win today absolutely nobody will think Mayo have a chance so supporters will have no impact on team preparation.

Delighted Andy gave it to the media and their bull narrative after every Mayo win. Now it's the hype. The standard of journalism is cat.

lol you and many others

Was cheering on Louth and that balloon badly burst.
Hard to know who to choose now.

Can't help the fact Kobe only has one crack at this before Australia is actually freeing him and Mayo.
There is no tomorrow and that can be a great perspective to take for victory.

A sur Flacker in two weeks we'll go up to Dublin have a few pints enjoy the expensive congratulate either Dublin or Kerry on winning another All Ireland. But we'll have a good weekend anyway no matter what like we always do.

Replying To legendzxix:  "Not surprised by Mayo. Was saying during the winter that they actually weren't that far away. A dangerous opponent."
Yerra, hopefully ye can give them a game if you make it through today.
