Well done lads. It'll be a short Winter for ye now. Lap up every last minute of it.

ps, haven't actually seen the match yet but it sounds like it was an epic. Will catch it later on Player

Always knew you were a good one Moss... Very Happy

5. Diarmuid Connolly was poor again. He has lots of talent, but lacks the temperament for the big day. I suspect that his career highlight will always be his display against Tyrone in the qtr final.

Amazing comment from Tc.............Really amazing and i ain't joking

highlight beating who

Unlucky on Sunday boss,a lot of stuff was written about the demise of Kerry myself included,but you were within a kick of a ball from winning another championship...i hope that makes your winter a little shorter...I hope the kingdom play a part again in the decade of the Dubs as you did in the 70s...

As bad has things were for you on Sunday at least you went home to a happy house............. Very Happy

Fair play Mullins man, I seen the game now and imho yer sideline(ie Giller) won that game there on Sunday. Some serious decisions taken over the course of the last or so in which they were oft ridiculed, sometimes even by their own, but their kop on and belief in the lads they had, not to mention their calls on the day, was what made the difference this time. Live it up bud afro

**Real Kerry Fan** Fri Sep 23, 2011 9:16 am

Thanks Mullins.Ah they were very consoling(The *******s) Should be ok after 18th October.(Month's mind) Sad

**mullins** Sat Sep 24, 2011 11:58 pm

Well what can you say what a day what a week,we have arrived back at our rightful place top of the pack...Haven't watched the match again yet,but watched the celebrations after the victory today,and it was something special fair play to the fans for staying clear of the field it really added to the occasion....

Well as i said after the League final i seen enough in 50 mins of that game to know these lads would deliver Sam come September they didn't let me down..I made a few bob on the victory just about paid for the week...

I would just like to thank everybody in the Dublin set up for all the work and effort you gave throughout the year,the 5-30 start feels so long ago now it started with snood night in Westmeath and finished with Sam long may it continue, and may i say a sincere go f##K yourself to all the begrudgers from all the other counties, we dispatched of tyrone and kerry the 2 best teams of the last decade..

Yet some say poor ref/took to many steps/didn't play enough time yet no one picked up on stars antics for 72 mins...

We done what cork could not do and beat kerry, we done what kerry could not do and beat Tyrone and we done what everyone else could not seem to do and dispatch of Donegal. WE ARE DUBLIN AND WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS.

Well lads its been a bumper ride with all of you's and may i say a sincere thank you for putting up with me on this forum for so long. Mullins out

Ps you have some great Dublin posters on this forum you should try and give them the respect they deserve....They are the closest to real true Dublin fans most of you will ever meet

SLAN MULLINS OUT rocker

I watched the final ten minutes of this game again.

In the 68th minute, Kevin McMenamon clearly hops the ball twice and gets away with it.

Not only did this directly lead to Bernard Brogan's point, but it came inside Dublin's '45 and Gooch would surely have converted.

Can't believe I missed it at the time, and I don't recall anybody mentioning it back then either.

It's a tainted win.

**Thomas Clarke** Sat Mar 03, 2012 10:55 am

So what you are saying is that, after Redmond playing on after a red card in 1995, and the dirty dozen in 1983, the Dubs haven't won an legitimate all ireland in 35 years?

same crap differnt day

**GAA-Fan** Sat Mar 03, 2012 3:34 pm

All sports are tainted with missed/poor decisions, although GAA seems to have its fair share.

If we started a topic on poor/missed decisions in GAA we would get quite a few.

Two Louth men robbed in broad daylight and then fine €1,000 each. Amazing stuff alright.

**Loyal2TheRoyal** Sat Mar 03, 2012 10:28 pm

Parouisa. Please.

1. Did McMenamin hop the ball twice?
2. Would Gooch/Sheehan have converted the resulting free?
3. Would Brogan have got his point?

Answers - Yes, Yes, No.

Two point turnaround.

Would you disagree with any of that?

**Parouisa** Sat Mar 03, 2012 10:40 pm

Me? I was merely asking Loyal to clarify his point. But, it has to be said, it is a shame to see such a capable poster as yourself shying away from the debate, and resorting to insults.

**Parouisa** Sat Mar 03, 2012 11:12 pm

The only surprising thing for me that I was (momentarily) surprised that you couldn't resist your usual cheap and snide jibe. I should be well used to it by now.

**Thomas Clarke** Sat Mar 03, 2012 11:49 pm

I must've missed my cheap and snide jibe. Strange to find you so irritable today, especially after a good win against Laois scratch

Good man Mullins. We wait 5 months for your return and, when you do, you make a post with no words. You haven't lost it! Wink

I'd call that a cheap (and constant) snide jibe.

Whereas calling someone sad when they bring up an alleged incident in a game six months later is not what I would call an insult.

Anyway thats my last word on it but no doubt you will have the last word as you do on all issues ...
