Big well done to Fossa, can't have any praise for teams like Stewartstown. Well done.

What kind of speech is that ?

Outragious speech at the end attacking officials - never heard of it. As for the concept of "Senior Inter county players" playing in a Junior Club All Ireland Final only in Ireland only in the GAA.

Replying To Ulsterman:  "SIX players sent off in the junior football final?? I didn't see the match, was it dirty? Were the sending offs justified? Did the officials lose control?"
Four were in injury time at the end. Two were for two yellows. One was for a particularly nasty elbow into the face. So wasn't really overly bad.

Tyrone team losing so who do you think are to blame?

Whatever about the match Paudie Clifford's speech at the end was cringe worthy and he should certainly be embarrassed when he looks back at it

Scandalous. The players are obviously under instruction to thank the match officials early in their victory speeches to promote the "respect" campaign, and Clifford uses it as a forum to castigate the referee for sending him off! Embarrassing.

Not an overly dirty match although the Cliffords came in for some treatment.

All reds were justified.

Red didn't lose control.

Not a great speech from Paudie Clifford.

I don't know of any county who are squeaky clean as you'll know if you think back to Galway v Armagh in the football and Galway again in the hurling v Dublin.

Replying To OpenStand:  "Watched the end of Fossa & Tyrone team , Clifford kicked some great points but some of the tackles out of Tyrone team were scandalous . Elbow on Paudie Clifford was a low act, id prefer not to win any match than to carry on like that."
Absolutely scandalous deliberate strike with the elbow, deserves long suspension. However for balance the first red for the Tyrone team, while technically correct for contact with the face, it was really the drama queen collapse by the fossa player that "bought" that red card. Also the red haired Fossa defender very lucky to escape with a yellow for a really dangerous high tackle. Finally Paudie "fitzgerald" Clifford's acceptance speech must surely go down as the most absurd "all about me" speech to be ventilated in Croker.

Well considering it's not possible for it to happen in any other sport what's your point?

It actually was a very clean and enjoyable game up until the last 10min or so.

Think Stewartstown did let themselves down a bit but the two Clifford's were no angels either.

It also has to be said that Fossa and Kerry would be extremely average without David Clifford.

Well done Fossa and fair play to David Clifford. He is one of the all time great's already.

Winners speech was possibly the worst I have ever heard. Very immature.

90% of games with over the top violence & tactics involve an Armagh or Tyrone team.

True enough but if you look back at the Galway v Armagh scrap it was started by Armagh and they'd been at it all year.
That was the most pathetic cringeworthy speech by a winning captain I ever heard, Larry McCarthy didn't even know his name when he introduced him either, pathetic all round.

Where did you find that stat? I'd like to see it. Here's another, Ballybrown v Garryspillane in free for all war brawl, Limerick v Cork brawl, Limerick v Galway brawl, all last year.

To be honest Harps lost that game on their own, were well in it until the stupid tackle and first red card. Referee evened it up for them with the black card for Fossa. Crazy stuff leaving David Clifford one on one with a defender for most of the match with no sweeper. If he gets a sniff it's over the bar. Best moment was when he took a quick kick at goal when the Harps keeper was out the field. Went over for a pint but could have been a very memorable goal aka Beckham. As for Paudie having a go at the ref for being sent off after complementing them earlier in his Victory speech will take some beating. Had to have been concussed? or is that normal in Kerry.

Think that 90% stat is based on the poster's bias.

But sure you put your hand into a players face whether he dives or not you are asking for trouble. Deserved red card.
