As long as its not Crokes people wearing Crokes gear to Kerry matches I don't care... At the Dublin game, there was a flag hanging over the rail behing the Mitchels goal. Emblazoned across it was the inscription "[name of individual] on tour" (I'll spare the person naming him). Worst thing is, it wasn't even a Dublin flag, or Kerry either, I think it was Celtic. Guy just wanted his name to be seen. Unbelieveable.

Any indications if this is going to be a sell out or not? Would it be so much to ask for a dry night, I don't think we've had a game not played in miserable weather since the McGrath Cup final. The rugby is on just before so I'd suspect a lot of people might be making a quick dash up to ASP for 7. Might mean they'll be some shelter somewhere if you get in ahead of them. Is it not sold out already, I thought there were no tickets available.

Iv just noticed a little pattern when it comes to Mayo.
In 96/97 they got to back to back allireland finals losing to Meath and Kerry.
In 04/06 not quite back to back but lost both funals to Kerry .
In 12/13 back to back finals lost to Donegal and dublin.
In 16/17 back to back finals lost to dublin.
In 20/21 back to back finals lost to dublin and Tyrone.
Does this mean we can write Mayo off for getting to this years allireland final? Or can they break their hoodoo and make it 3 allireland finals in a row.

I see Mike Breen is gone for the foreseeable future, according to Kerry's Eye online, sounds like he is gone for the year- pity, I have serious time for him.

Awful pity, I was very impressed with him last year and was thinking he’d cement his position on the team this year. Does anyone know if Joe O’Connor and Okunbor are back in full training yet? Going by Jack’s timelines from a few weeks back they might be available for the weekend. Also any word on the extent of Dan O’Donoghue’s and Paul Murphy’s injuries?

Good luck to the lad. That's terrible news. He was shaping up very well.

Things maybe bad to worse, any truth that Seanie has done ankle ligaments?

The same rumours were started last summer about seanie and it turned out to be nonsense.
Hope this is the same..

Strong starting team by Mayo although their bench doesn't look as good as recent games with Durcan & O'Shea starting.

That is a strong side, Tadgh Morley and Aidan Shea will be a good match up but for me, the defining pairing is Lee Keegan and David Clifford.
That is some match up.

I really, really hope that we don’t see Keegan on Clifford because otherwise we’ll be subjected to him getting away with the same sh*t he did every year with Connolly. I don’t think my heart or head could handle having to watch the general stupidity of GAA officials who will do nothing while keegan wrestles another player to the ground, off the ball, constantly

I don’t think my heart or head could handle having to watch the general stupidity of GAA officials who will do nothing while keegan wrestles another player to the ground, off the ball, constantly strong team by Mayo, O'Shea is in there to bully our midfield in the absence of David Moran, it's what he did the last time they met in Tralee and in that years league final. Our boys are a few years older now and a bit stronger Morley has the legs for him but if O'Shea gets the ball he'll barge his way through no doubt, it'll be a good test of our centre column.

Good to see Mayo putting out a strong side - will allow management see how some of our prospects deal with strong opposition. Could end up playing Mayo again in a league final - important game for some lads who want to throw down a marker for championship games this year. I will be particularly interested in how our mid field deal with the Mayo pairing. Hopefully the weather does not spoil the game and we learn from it.

It is interesting that Aiden O’Shea is selected to start . I remember a couple years ago ,up in Castlebar , Gavin Crowley giving him a bellyful . A horse for a particular course I wonder?

Strong defence from Mayo but their attack is missing that fire power that Kerry have. Game will be won around the middle I think. If Kerry even break even here I think we should habe the firepower that Mayo don't have. Ryan O' Donoghue the main threat whonI expect to be picked up by Jason Foley and probably Diarmuid O'Connor to be marked by Tom Sullivan.

Ryan O’Donoghue is the elusive type of player who troubles Jason. Dylan Casey should do fine against him or switch back Brian O’Beaghlaigh. Brian is a natural wingback but would be tailor made for the Mayo man if the need arises.

“Aiden O’Shea normally does well against Kerry”. Ciarraimixk, you must not have been at the championship match in Killarney a couple of years ago!

Ah Tom sull has to go on o donoghue , doubt 9 shea will be at 11 be pure madness to move o connor I think he is playing great stuff there. Some great matchups imagine Durcan will go on seanie keegan on David beyond that not too sure. It's a great test for us half forwards and mf in particular, if we break even there and stop them setting up attacks we should win outside of o donoghue and maybe Orme its hard to see them scoring enough. Their wf havent been great so Maybe putting o shea there is for that reason
