To be fair it's one of the biggest games in club soccer. Would have been a waste of time trying to put something else on at that time. If it was a big game they could have watch led it on sky couldn’t they? Why are they wasting money on showing something that is already broadcasted and hasn’t any Irish involvement at all? Probably paid millions for it and then not showing us Irish games played by Irish teams Because it's not on Sky. Besides by that logic anyone could have watched any of the games yesterday on GAAGO could they not? I'm pretty sure RTE pay millions for GAA coverage do they not? What's the difference? |

Kerry South
Did you think of the names of those lads who should have started for the u20s and the others that should have made the panel
The guys who were starting and at club and colleges level??

Very open Championship this year. No standout team. Dublin the benchmark obiviously but can be got at defensively this year. Kerry and Galway building slowly. Armagh and Donegal too have chances. I wouldn't rule out Derry yet as 'Sneaky' Mickey Harte will still have a sting in them [they will beat Westmeath and qualify]. Winning group vital in my opinion as gives ya the extra week to prepare for QF.

Quick question. Does anybody know the rule if 3 teams finish on 4 points in a group. It could happen in Donegal/Cork/Tyrone group.

When Teams finish with equal points for Qualification for the Concluding Stages, or for Promotion or Relegation, the tie shall be decided by the following means and in the order specified:
(i) Where two Teams only are involved - the outcome of the meeting of the two Teams in the previous game in the Competition;
(ii) Scoring Difference (subtracting the total Scores Against from total Scores For);
(iii) Highest Total Score For;
(iv) Highest Total Goals For;
(v) A Play-Off

If it's two teams level, it's their head-to-head record. If it's three teams level, it's points-difference. It happened in Kerry's group last year:
When they were kind of fortunate to top the group, despite having lost to Mayo (had it been just Kerry and Mayo on equal points, Mayo would've topped the group, having won the head-to-head match).

Good point for Monaghan in the end and an important one. Means a draw will do them v Meath next time out.

Surely asking you a legitimate question based off your own statements is by definition the essence of a debate. Can’t see how that’s trolling? Your posts tend to be quiet negative. Hence the reason why I asked. Like in in any debate, it’s always best to back up statement with facts or in this case players who may have been overlooked. If there were lads unjustly treated like you said, i’m sure they’d only be delighted to get a mention on here. They’d like for their names to be thrown out there, to show that people feel they should have been on the squad etc |

I asked you on the 21st of May very politely who you felt should have been on. You went to ground for two weeks. I saw you having a go off Mark Fitzgerald today for no reason. Kicking a man while he’s down. It was the first time you had reappeared in two weeks so I simply asked you the same question again. No doubt you’ll try to balance things up with a few positive posts in the next few days. But your posts are there to be seen. You’re only on here to cut lads, you clearly have sets in people involved in teams, players, managers, mentors even stretching as far to schools. All I did was ask you who should have been on. Apologies for the abusive behaviour |

Any personal feuds will get both/all posters involved banned.
Not every poster logs on or checks the board every day, so a gap from a question to a response should be expected...including to moderators.
Nervous energy will build among us all until the end of July, whether we win, lose or draw. Please be respectful to all our players, fellow supporters, team support staff...not to mention our opponents.
We expect only the best from our posters and any valid criticisms should be presented as if the subject of your criticism was standing behind you. It is fine to say "I don't like so-and-so at such-and-such a position"...there is no need to say "so-and-so is a b*llix and shouldn't be on the team/bench/selection committee/tv coverage...or even helping/running the website!
Looking forward to good discussion here with plenty of varied opinions. I usually check in daily and will not hesitate to delete posts and posters and debates will not be entered into on any decisions.
Thanks for everyone's cooperation as we look forward to a great rest of the inter-county season.

Kerry are +35 from 4 games, have been playing in 3rd gear and yet, I don't recall many years where the team was under so much scrutiny.
2-83 scored also! Players must be sick of the constant negativity around.

There are different cultures in different teams.
Some teams will do little more than enough to beat you. Others will go out to hammer you in to the ground and show no mercy.
We beat Meath by 15 points but it could have been 25 points. We fall in to that let’s just get it done mode.
Dublin under Galvin we’re in the hammer you mode, inflict as much damage as possible.
I do believe Kerry & Dublin are building up for 1/4s. The biggest problem for Kerry is that they won’t have had a decent team to play in this group stage to measure themselves.
Dublin should get a challenge from Mayo that will bring them on.

Anyone know how the preliminary 1/4 final draw works?
Can you be drawn against a team you’ve already played in the group stage?
Might be fun to try and predict who’ll get there and see who we might meet in 1/4s

The four preliminary quarter-finals will be on GAAGO. While there are many critics of the current format, with the government trying to get all four quarter-finals on terrestrial TV, the GAA mightn't be in any rush to dispense with the preliminary quarter-finals.

Looking at possible re Qf opponents [Provided Kerry win group].
The following are all possible
Argmagh/Galway/Derry/Donegal/Cork/Tyrone/Dublin/Mayo/Roscommon/Monaghan
The above are my guesses at who gets through etc
4 group winners will Probably be Kerry/Dublin/Argmagh-Galway/Donegal-Cork-Tyrone
I think Kerry/Dublin/Argmagh and Donegal will win group and progress straight to QF
Exciting times ahead where the butterflies will be in the belly pre games lol.

To date this year must be one of the worst in terms of attendances at games. Under 10k again at Dublin v Cavan I seen. Not sure about the other games. Apparently, the Tailteann Cup game between Waterford and Longford attracted 75 souls to O'Moore Park. Not sure what the record low is for a championship game but this must be in with a shout. Probably more arrived on the team buses than actually paid in. |

Probably more arrived on the team buses than actually paid in. I saw that, Attendances will be the reason the GAA finally act. Even though I think the cost is good value the ancillary costs make it very difficult for many. If i drove up from Kerry for that match on Sunday you'd be fairly disappointed as it resembled a game that you'd see for the opening of a pitch. The GAA said there was a 3 year bedding in period but they might have to act much sooner. The attendances at the QFs will be interesting. |

Im not anyway.If Derry get over Westmeath,then they will have McKinless back and if they clear up a few injuries they could still be a very dangerous team and knockout a major team yet. I am, They are a shambles and the rumours flying around aren't great. They got fortunate with the game in Newry but Westmeath will be well up for it. They've lost 3 times and really that's a joke that they are still in the championship. All is not well in that camp. |

Derry has often been a county with a lot of infighting between clubs. It is one of the main reasons for their underachieving. They have good underage, schools and a club structure so senior county success should follow.
I think it is one of the main reasons we do consistently well. The best players make themselves available and they share a common goal. Leave your club rivalries at home, the kerry jersey comes first.

Were your team lose its first game in the knockout stages, you'd be a bit peeved to see a 3-time loser still in it - they might even be the ones to put you out. Still, them's the rules, I suppose, for now anyway. |

For me they are a beaten docket, the body language of certain key players was obvious, they look to me to have lost focus. I think most felt that the tempo and fitness levels seen in the McKenna and National League would be hard to sustain. They will do well to recover, McKinless back in at 6 will bolster their defense but the very reason for his absence for me typifies what is wrong. |
