Morley was immense. Still would love to see griffin in the half back line though

Yes it is fair to say ye are not playing with a full deck. I suppose for Kerry tonight was getting a bit of pride back after a couple of poor performances recently, They done that in spades . I've always said it mc Geaney is class. Moran done well at times tonight . Murphy is a great little player. But the reality is Kerry are now aping Tyrone and Donegal in trying to nullify the Dubs . It's quite possible ye might beat us doing it, but being honest at times tonight it was hard to watch . I don't think I've ever seen a game with the amount of off the ball tackles to stop runners. I trust you're including all the shoving the Dublin forwards had on the Kerry backs to prevent quick restarts when you make reference to the off the ball stuff.

Let's not pretend dublin weren't doing the same thing panther, Lowndes was very lucky in particular. Football between the top three and four teams is now an elongated version of basketball with no shot clock. The ball is run and hand passed up the field to an area with little to no space, a shot is taken or a turnover happens and the same thing occurs at the other end of the field. It's made the game very poor to watch but it's a near impossible problem to fix.

Firstly, on balance a draw was probably a fair result but it’s still hugely frustrating from a Kerry perspective. We had the winning of this one and literally kicked away the game and the 80 odd year old record with it. Yes, Sam is all that matters at the end of the year but we’re proud of our records in Kerry, so this draw leaves a bitter taste.
Paul Murphy will be feeling gutted but park it and move on is definitely the message, he was excellent tonight. Moreover, there was so many other twists and turns in this game. We missed real goal chances again and free kicks and they should haunt us a lot more. These are the breaks and inches that all add up. When the otherwise brilliant Paul Geaney missed that free to put us 5 clear - I had the same déjà vu feeling like when the Gooch kicked that ball short to push Kerry was it 4/5 clear in last years semi-final. A game of inches for sure.
The referee had a tough job tonight but we can’t complain too much given how we approached this game so full blooded. However, I remember when he gave a nothing free to McHugh (a superb find for Dublin) on the 14 yard line thinking that decision could haunt us come the end of game and so it proves.
I got it badly wrong on David Moran in my pre-match thoughts, I did not think he would or could outshine Fenton but tonight for much of this game he was definitely the master. Moran tired towards the end but it was a huge performance overall. This draw feels like a loss but there are positives too and I’m seeing some light at the end of this tunnel!

Feels like we snatched a draw from the jaws of victory. We were the better team tonight and should've won. Dublin don't have the same level of natural footballers but are a well honed system based team. Also, they are as guilty at the dark arts as every other top team in the country as evident tonight.

I dont disagree ,We are well able to push and hit lads off the ball. Tonight we did hit lads. I know it takes two to tango and Dublin can be as sneaky as anyone when needed. It just seemed tonight it was more elevated . A constant hitting of men once they had released the ball. I don't expect anyone to agree , I also don't want to sound like sour grapes . But I'd be lying if I come on here and said it was a great tough game of ball , it wasn't. Although we did get out of jail at the end . I suppose for Fitzmaurice beating the Dubs is all that matters and then possibly build from it.

Conceeding scoreable frees again came back to bite us on the hole.
It was an exciting game because it was close. In my view Dublin played much better. Their passing and movement was superior.
Morley has cemented himself into the team.
MDMA is an ape.
Draw is a fair result.

I've been saying it for a couple of years now that kerrys midfield should have the beating of Dublins midfield and tonight we flew the midfield on one wing and still this area easy Imagine if we had two midfielders Barry not doing enough and Maher looked like he couldn't get to the pace of the game
But it's the lack of football smarts that's hard to fathom Our free taking we need a separate coaching staff for this we need a left legged free taker for right side frees We need one player to take 45 s not confusion We need a free taker that can take frees off the ground this whole area of frees needs urgent work On the positive side Dod you notice Kealy is after developing a new kick out style and it's very promising how he floats it now like Cluxton We made an unacceptable amount of errors thst U 12 would not make Paul's Murphys dumb kick bring only one of many Geaneys miissed goal when he should have placed it Paul gesneys missed from 21 yards Donnacha kicked short when we could have scored Paul took the 45 when kealy had just scored the previous Kerrys fouling and poor tackling was outrageous This is all house keeping if we sort this small stuff out we have a shot but not sure if we are capable We play like we haven't practed in front of goal Kerry's kick passing supposed to be the best But we caught Dublin With our direct running E.g. O Brien second held Dublin looked shocked st this Bottom line we are not a million miles away

Did anyone see the match on telly. Surely there was some clear punches thrown maybe on both sides but definetlly thought I saw my old buddy Cluxton swinging. Eir Sport is only less shameful than our GAA bosses for negotiating a dud deal - just the bare game, no panel. And they show Kildare v Down live while delaying the two big games. Kick all their arses down O'Connell Street! Shameful treatment of GAA community by the GAA.

A game of so many parts and everyone will have their view. Any drawn game 'could' have been won by either side and though they were slick, we prevented them from doing it while we ourselves threw away a number of match winning opportunities. Still we had some star performances and that we competed shows we are there or thereabouts.
Éamonn & Co now have to weld a team with those yet to show, including the u21s and I foresee an avalanche here that will have us going up while The Dubs are coming down. It is only a matter of time 'til we reach the threshold where it all clicks - last night you had a decent number of standout shows, from veterans and rookies alike. Of the former - Moran, Darren and Barry John were class and the mark might induce the best season ever out of David.
The standout opportunity as I see it is that we need to sharpen up, look at how slick they move the ball -this can be trained into fellas and given our natural class we could out-do them in this respect in time and there is potential here to improve our worth by say 25% and which is absolutely massive -such sharpness would have been 10 points last night between what we could have scored and what we could have prevented the Dubs from converting.
The bandwagon will take-off and the pipeline will have us climbing Hogan very shortly so I'd keep the diary free for 17th Sept.
Well done to all, very well done.

Biggest plus out of this game was we didnt fall apart in the last 10 mins like previous 5 games v Dublin when they outscored us 5-20 to 0-5 in the last 10 mins. We had the youth and legs needed to stay with them even though they emptied a bench of All Stars.
It was a huge game for the newer lads and was great to see them tearing into Dublin. Still loads of work to do but definately a step in the right direction.

Agree with others on Morley, he was excellent and is definitely made of the right stuff! Another man who was no shrinking violet last night was Adrian Spillane, especially in the first half. This man has the head and pedigree for this level so I hope Kerry management persist with him.

I suppose it's the kind of animal I am but this morning I'm asking myself why I'm disappointed with a draw when I was expecting at best a gallant defeat. The atmosphere last night in Tralee was electric and the Kerry support was more vocal than I have ever experienced. The Kerry players went back to the dressing room at half time with grim determination etched on their faces and the deepest disappointment at full time and the supporters equally subdued. I doubt if Donegal or even Tyrone were this flat following their own draws with Dublin which tells its own story about where we are or perhaps where we think we should be.
The match itself was edge of seat stuff not for the skill sets of either side but the closeness of the score line throughout. Either team could have snatched a win and a draw was probably the fairest result. And yet I can't help thinking that, like the Mayo and Monaghan defeats we should have won this one. Paul Murphy can be pardoned the slip at the end because we should really have been defending a bigger lead at that stage. The big question I would ask the management is why they are now using the Goalkeeper for the long range frees. Even Dublin seem to have stopped doing this. Fair enough if it works but I think Kealy has now scored only two from five attempts this season and that's not good enough to justify this tactic. Have we not got another long range free taker in the whole of Kerry and if not why wasn't Bryan Sheehan on the field? Or why not drop it short if you have no confidence in getting it over the bar?
So two cheers for us this morning. If as expected Cavan and Roscommon lose today we should be assured of Div I status next season so something was achieved last night. We can build on this and get better. Dublin great team that they are have a much more difficult task in keeping up this high standard.

If somebody had told us we would get a draw out of this I would have been happy. But this draw leaves a taste of defeat. We should have won this match. Indeed we seemed to have it own twice but, not for the first time, in recent years, we conspired to throw open the door for the opposition. Opening the door for champions of the calibre of Dublin is an expression of a death wish. We went four points up in the second half playing with the gale and then got a couple of frees, and a couple of other opportunities too, which if nailed would surely have sealed the issue. But then, current management seem to adopt a cavalier attitude to the value of free taking. Surely, Bryan Sheehan, even with one leg, should have been brought on and planted inside with Paul. Instead we bring on Michael Geaney. Michael is an effective player with Dingle but I cannot understand why he is a constant on this panel. In the meantime Dublin ,only a shadow of what they can be, sensed weakness and went on to dominate and gradually claw back the deficit and eventually take the lead. It was hugely impressive. Sheer doggedness and refusal to submit facilitated that remarkable recovery. However those qualities are not sufficient unless your period of dominance is reflected on the soore board. In that respect, Dublin had an ace in the person of Dean Rock. Now, Dean did little from general play and had he been wearing the Kerry colours it is likely that, historically, EF would have removed him from active duty. Not Jim Gavin. Jim and I have one thing in common. We realise that, usually, a reliable free taker is king. Dean was well nigh flawless. Kicking into that gale was a very difficult assignment but he did not flinch and looked to have hauled Dublin over the lone.
To Kerry's credit they dug in to rescue a seemingly hopeless cause to establish a point lead with the clock very much against the Dubs. Once more, we indulge in one of our favourite hobbies, hari kari. Paul Murphy is afflicted with a brain storm. We are awarded a free out with the likelihood that the next possession or two will ensure victory. I understand the argument that was little or no movement by Kerry players in front of him, shamefully so considering that we had a spare man at that stage. So, what would any half trained schoolboy do in those circumstances playing with the gale. You will be able to answer that for yourself. Will we get a better opportunity of beating the Dubs in 2017. I will be keeping my meagre life savings under the mattress.
Apart from one horrible kick out, Brendan did well in goals.
It was unfortunate that we lost Shane so early and indeed Killian later on. Tadgh Morley was one of our star performers at CHB, particularly in the first half.
David Moran had a thundering game. I don't think he gave the ball away once. Jack Barry remains an enigma to me. Stephen O'Brien and Darran injected some energy to the attack when they came on. But it was the exquisite Paul Geaney who caused Dublin the most headache. He seems to be able to extricate himself from the most smothering of situations.
A draw last night and a win for Dr. Crokes on Friday means a good weekend then? From a purely parochial standpoint I suppose it is not a bad return. After my disenchantment with the club final I expressed the view here that my principal hope last night was not so much a Kerry victory but rather evidence that football is still a worthwhile spectator sport. Depressingly, further evidence emerged that this game of ours no longer holds any attraction for the neutral. The closeness of the score and the engagement of rabid supporters ensured an exciting contest. Apart from that, what was on show? A desecration of the game which I am rapidly falling out of love with. Apart from a few players on either side most of the participants had no interest in involving themselves in a fair confrontation. Spite and nastiness pervaded the entire game. On and off the ball , players pulled and dragged and pushed and elbowed and punched and tripped. This was not sporadic. It was relentless mean spiritedness. Euro after euro and hour after hour is invested in these players and this is the end product. The hand pass infestation and the lawlessness we witnessed last night will surely lead to the demise of this football code unless some drastic action is taken. No doubt, the referee was weak but last night's game was ungovernable. And remember these two teams are possibly the best in the country. What can you hope for further down the food chain? Football? More accurately described as a cesspool
Now, there are people, perhaps in the majority, who will argue that the end justifies the means. In that case, the pleasure is yours and the melancholy is mine.

Can anyone tell me how much longer are we going to persist with the rotation of Kealy and Kelly? Neither of whom are the best keepers in the county, Shane Murphy and Shane Ryan are both far better shot stoppers and can go short or long without any issue! Both of them can also slot frees and 45s for fun! Is it blind faith and twisted loyalty on Fitmaurice's part? Because these two are costing us games, between missed frees and poor restarts!

Nobody seems to mention the outstanding ( in my view at least) of Ronan Shanahan. Has come in at corner back for the last few games and looks like he has everything required. We ended last season saying we need to find defenders...we're finding them even if we the supporters prefer to pay attention to what is not working right now. Win the last two games of the league now with a similar spirit as was shown last night then with the bigger picture in mind, the league will have been a great success imho. But winning those last two games is important now...not for league position but for confidence building. With the U21s to come back in and maybe one or two of the Crokes contingent ( congrats to Crokes but as others have said, that was awful stiff to watch), we will be rising again soon...maybe not 2017 but don't rule it out.
Jack Barry certainly has potential but needs to have more confidence in himself and take the scoring opportunities that come his way. He tends to opt out in those too often and that has to change. Adrian Spillane will I believe come on a lot from last evenings experience. I particularly liked the way he never shrank from taking responsibility.
Clearly we need more scoring from our forwards. Decision making is however our greatest weakness in my opinion...and I'm not talking specifically about Paul Murphy in this case but he too is guilty as are quite a few others. Decision making under pressure is difficult but crucial to get it right.
Kealy did ok last night I thought and would prefer him to Kelly currently but surely a change ( Shane Ryan is the stand out option I think) is imminent here.

I also think Paul Murphy should go back to the backs as thats his natural position. His not a scoring forward and a missed a handy 1-1 yesterday. Kerry need another scoring forward in the half forward line, obviously Goouch will be good for a certain period but we have never come close to replacing Declan O Sullivan, obviously its nearly an impossible task to replace a player like Declan but we definately need a player that can take on a defence and kick a few scores as well. If we are depending solely on Geaney and JOD we are going to be in trouble come days they are quiet.

It was a typical top-teams game last night where each was trying to lay down a marker. The draw was probably a fair result given Dublin's comeback, followed by our own near the end. The latter was probably the most pleasing aspect - in recent years we would have rolled over and conceded another 3 or 4, but not this time. For me, this is a watershed moment for us.
The new lads have really shown great grit - Shanahan, Barry, Spillane in particular last night, and McCarthy. Add in Begley, Andrew Barry and a couple of more and I think we will have the right mix to win it. Eamon has shown some willingness to try out the new lads, and I hope this continues for the Summer.
I do hope one of the Shanes gets a chance in goal - Kealy was better last night than normal, but if we have better then let's try them. Daithi Casey needs to be given another chance as well - he has the ability, just needs to be given another go.

Paul Murphy for me has to go back into the half back line again. Just doesn't do it for me up front. We still have a serious problem with teams running at us. Either conceding scores or given away frees although after watching the game again last night when I come home, there was a few soft frees for Dublin in front of goal

First off, the decision to play this game in Austin Stack Park was fully justified. Fantastic occasion, it was probably the loudest I have heard the place.
Before I mention the game itself, something that is worrying me is the amount of leg muscle injuries we seem to be picking up. James Donoghue missed Mayo and Dublin games because of leg muscle injuries, Killian Young and Paul Geaney were forced off during the Mayo game with hamstring strains and Shane Enright and Killian Young went off last night with what seemed to be similar injuries. Question marks over the warm-up perhaps – I can only imagine the talk if Cian O Neill was still physical trainer.
On the game itself I was delighted with the attitude and aggression shown by Kerry. Nobody shirked the task of facing up to their opponent and laying down a marker. Mayo have been masters of doing this against Dublin and was something Kerry didnt seem able to or prepared to do – before last night. It was badly needed.
I think Fitzy will be happy with the performances of some of the new faces last night – none of Shanahan (although his man did score two from play and was fouled for a pointed free), Morley (outstanding), Barry (nullified Fenton) and Kevin McCarthy looked out of their depth. Kerry managed Cluxtons kickouts well I felt. Somebody mentioned why Mikey Geaney was brought on ahead of Bryan Sheehan – my opinion is the answer is Sheehan would not be suitable to implementing the plan of stopping Cluxton getting men on the ball from the re-start. Geaney was.
Its hard not to admire Dublin’s resolve and the way they got the 6 points in a row in the second half against the wind, prompted by a substitution and a positional switch. Granted the equaliser was gifted to them but they still needed to win a breaking ball to score it.
The ref had his hands full and did as good a job as he could. However Dublin will be thanking their lucky stars that the linesman in the first half missed the ref card offence by Shane Carthy. Actually he missed two red card offences by the same player in the space of 10 seconds. He seemed more interested in having words with Liam Hasset than doing his job.

Mayo have been masters of doing this against Dublin and was something Kerry didnt seem able to or prepared to do – before last night. It was badly needed. To even contemplate overtaking dublin, that aspect has to be done first. This is a truly great dublin team but they can do the nasty stuff as well as any previous great teams. In early 1978 kerry and dublin went to war in the states during tour and Liston, Deenihan, Paidi and Kennelly signalled that Kerry would be meeting fire with fire from now on. Galvin, OMahony and Donaghy brought the same thing to jacks teams. Kerry need to kick points from 40 yards. Declan and Galvin would have slotted four each last night when they were in their prime. Things will move quickly when the crokes and u21 players become available. The restarts and the free are two things that require most attention.

Recently learnt in Kerry's 34 unbeaten streak, the win percentage was 97.1%.
Dublin's is 82.4%
A vs B grade no comparison!
Same person tells me Dublin have to win their next 170 games in a row to reach that grade!
