Lee Keegan sent off. Shit refereeing has almost certainly ruined the match.

Fact that it's being played in Limerick is causing an uproar too! Mayo should beat them fairly easily next week.

Cracker of a 2nd half.

Thought the red was a bit petty, given what tends to be let go in many GAH matches.

Anyway, yeah, I'd fancy Mayo next weekend and Dublin as well.

Wouldn't begrudge Mayo a Sam finally as their football is great.

It's hilarious over here in the west. Everyone gets on the hype train then their hearts are consistently broken every year!

Buckley actually threw a punch into Keegan's chest, that's why he kicked out, red was an awful call.

Lee Keegan's red card rescinded - Good.

Think there was a good argument to be made Ivan about Limerick not being a neutral venue. Anyway I think its ridiculous that its not in Croker, an All Ireland Semi final should be in Croker.

Big weekend and am expecting Mayo to overcome Kerry.

Think Donegal will come out and hit the Dubs but the Dubs should overcome them.

C'mon the Dubs

I agree totally Vinny. I think Dublin will want to hit the ground running so Donegal will have to come out from the start. I expect a big start from them to nullify Donegal's weeks of planning. Then they will become awkward and disjointed when they have to become attacking.

I hope Kerry do it. Nothing but respect for Mayo as they keep coming back to the well after all thier disappointments and a horrible wounded animal to face in this years All Ireland all going well as it shows in their tackling in the 2nd half last Sunday.

Yeah I feel for Mayo too to be honest. So close the last couple of years. Would prefer Kerry in the final though :) assuming we get through, as Dub v Kerry is always a special day. If Dublin don't win it I would hope Mayo do.

Was surprised Monaghon gave us the kick outs. Cluxton could just pick and choose and their tactics surprised me. With possession that Dublin team will do damage to anyone. Don't expect Donegal to be so kind and will defend from the Full forward line.

Yes they wont retreat off the half backs like Monaghan but if we win 65% of our kickouts our dynamic play their after should be enough to keep the score board ticking over via long range / frees. If we manage to keep a goal between the sides early on Donegal will have to come out a little and that is all the space we will be looking for.

I am currently reading Singing in the Blues - have you read it? Its very good all about our 2011 All Ireland Victory but goes back as far as the 70's and all those Kerry Clashes and big defeats. I'm up as far as 2002 - that famous Cosgrave last minute free that went of the post to hand Armagh the win. Its a good read if you can get your hands on it.

Geaney has the goal at his mercy there, over the bar... Shocking.
