@roughfield @EoinOhare55 I think if Kerry could get to Croke Park for the quarter or semi, they would be a different team then. But yes, getting there is the big if right now.

@roughfield @EoinOhare55 Donegal and Armagh are the leading two right now. Jimmy did well side-stepping the Ulster Final this year. He knows bigger battles are ahead and to save the legs. Right now, Donegal looks unbeatable. But Kerry crippled with injury.

@roughfield @EoinOhare55 Kerry gave it to four Ulster counties last year to win Sam. Fluke, I suppose 😅

Donegal and Kerry are now on the verge of surpassing Tyrone and Kerry as the game’s biggest rivalry. It's great to see. 🙂

@ChrisMcNultyDgl Burns got what he deserved. What is your issue? Murphy got away with the very same in the NLF when there wasn't a word from Donegal. Talk about cheap, rush of blood to the head commentary. 🙄

[Stephen Fernane @stephenfernane]

Good enough for Ger Brennan. Good enough for Jim McGuinness. No manager should lay a finger on an opposition player.

@john_mcguirk It's always been 'mom' in County Kerry. I think that ends the debate. 😉

@DavQuinn I'm so sorry. It's a tough thing to go through. They make all the bad stuff in life seem tolerable.

Armagh and Tyrone are like abstract art. You can't always figure it out. It looks odd and confusing, but it's always worth looking at.
