There is very little between Tyrone and Kerry...one kick of the ball today. There is a chasm between Kerry and Dublin. Kerry have very good players but are lightweight. Dublin have brilliant players and are very harder and far stronger in my opinion. Skill levels are similar but once again Dublin are ahead. They have a demolition gear, Kerry don't. It would be great if you could p*ss off You clearly know nothing about Gaelic footballl based on the post above. We know Dublin are a much better team but your analysis is pathetic. Also posters who pop up just as their team is about to play Kerry are given short shrift here.

33,000 a terrible attendance for a semi, in fairness to Tyrone they had at least 20,000 of that crowd and they brought with them a lot of colour and flags etc. Kerry supporters don't seem to bring that atmosphere to games that other counties do. With the population of our county we should be bringing at least 15,000 with us. I take into account the price of tickets and everything but we should really have more supporters showing up. Rant over. Great showing by Kerry in the second half, we really stepped up the tempo and even though a lot of Tyrone supporters are saying the ref cost them the game Kerry deserved that win on the the second half showing. First half was real boring to watch with little atmosphere or excitement, reminded me of a league game to be honest but that second half gives me a little bit of hope that we can really test Dublin for 70 minutes. Whether we win or not is a different story. Cíarraí Abú

So that is three defeats in a row against Kerry for Tyrone. Funny how the media don’t make a thing of this. Will we start calling ourselves team of the decade

O'Brien indicates he wants to appeal Meath black card. Meath black wasn’t a black I thought at the time so he should get off. I'll put it to you this way,if he was a dub he'd get off

Every team has a coming of age moment. Was today that moment for this very talented young side?
Kerry have made a final with a bunch of kids after dismantling the team over two years. Make no mistake no other country including Dublin with all their advantages could do this. Be proud, be very proud.

Today was a textbook black. I can't recall the Donegal one. They said they will look at the Meath one.

Defending players have no chance now with the level of diving from attacking players looking for soft frees.

I thought Kerry were very cynical today.
But Tyrone were dirty.

We fought fire with fire,we were too soft 15 years ago when the likes of Tyrone could do what they like to us Kerry did what they had to do, didn't feel they were overly cynical myself. O'Brien's tackle was very cynical however. Deegan made 2 very poor decisions in my opinion 1 for each team. 1st being when Geaney and his man were grappling while Tyrone were in possession and he stopped the play, booked both players and threw the ball up when really it should have been an indirect free to Tyrone from where the play was stopped. 2nd was the foul on Shane Ryan by Rory Brennan I think it was should have been a straight Red. He come into him a full throttle, got him into the head and Ryan was lucky he wasn't out cold. One more I'm not too sure about but it was when Cathal McShane was fouled out by the 21 on the Cusack end and the ref played advantage, he left him go through on goal and when McShane put it high and wide he called it back well after the 5 seconds past. I always thought if you chose to take on the shot that's the end of your advantage.

I think the Kerry backs did just barely ok today.
Why does a back not contest a 50/50 ball. The back can see the ball coming and yet chooses to wait goalside and then defend.Is there a fear of being beaten to the ball or is it a safety strategy. Actually Tadhg Morley was our only back contesting high ball today.
Kick out strategy not solved yet. Look how Dublin covered Mayo kickouts.

Geaney got a free for absolutely nothing at the start of the second half in front of the goal, Sean O'Shea got a ridiculous free when Deegan said Meyler fouled him when thhe ball went over their heads, Morley was also lucky to get a free when him and Mattie Donnelly were on each other. Deegan helped Kerry a huge amount in that game today.

Such a privilege to be there today among my own Kind. 305 was alive with the sound of Kerry and I can’t remember another time the Kerry crowd got completely behind the team. It was plain to see that the team was reacting to this. David Clifford seemed to acknowledge this after the equalising score. Everyone doubted them and God knows we doubted them ourselves but they are tearing up the scrips. Can they tear up the biggest script of all? Who knows but at least we are getting a shot at it. I will be crossing the border later on with a spring in the step.

I don't think this Tyrone team is a dirty team by inter county standards and certainly when compared to what went before them.
I don't think they were dirty today and apart from SOBs effort at the end i cant remember too much cynical stuff from either side.
Deegan was unbiased even if he made some big blunders as outlined above. Kerry got the sort of frees today that they wouldnt ever get playing Dublin with Dublin Joe or either of the Dublin Daves as ref.
Big change around from 2018 after abject efforts against Galway and Monaghan.
PK brought back into the fold a few big men with big hearts such as Shane Ryan, Jack Sherwood, Tommy Walsh and Jonathan Lyne and their physicality assisted Kerry to get over the loss of Maher, KD, Sheehan etc.
I had no idea what to expect from today other than a hunch that the subs would be key and all Kerrys subs made a huge difference.
When you consider all the finals Diarmaid Connolly got to play in after more serious situations you would hope that SOB will play in the final. Kerry have no chance without him. His development over the past few years has been amazing. I felt he should have been rested v Meath and todays card would have made no difference.
Paul Geaney put in a huge second half today and DC operating 20 metres between the D and the 45 metre line is going to be the way of the future surely...at least for long spells at any rate.
McShane had to have a 100% return for Tyrone to win and he left a few behind in the second half.
Spare a thought for Peter Crowley tonight.
Another man with a big heart.

We are back to being the 2nd best team in the country at the very least. That's an improvement from last year and would have been a reasonable target for the management team at the start of the year so credit to them for that.
Improvement has to be in stages.
Tommy Walsh looked good. That a big positive. To beat Dublin we will need 3 goals. He gives us the long ball option

There were at least two dirty digs by Tyrone players today.
We weren't angels but it was gamesmanship rather than violence.
