Yep, I'll be there roaring my guts out for Kerry. On paper, Cork have to be firm favourites but if ever there has been a team to rip up the form book, it's the Kingdom.

Can they both lose? :wink:

Ah I think I'll have to go for Cork, although I'd never write off the Kerrymen either.

Lets hope it as good a final as the hurling.

For the sake of all that is good and holy, Kerry must win. Cork people are intolerable as it is but imagine if they had something to be cocky about.

I see that the bookies are giving value....... :roll:

That Cork side is probably one of the biggest I have ever seen but if Kerry play like they did against Dublin......but then again Cork beat Tyrone.......obviously I have no idea so. :? :?

Just because a post upsets you, that doesn’t mean that it is wrong. People have different views in all aspects of life, this is a key ingredient to an interesting conversation.

Should be a good game. Cork have the form but Kerry are most comfortable in the confines of HQ. I reckon one or 2 of the Cork players will get stage fright and Kerry will win it. Hope it's a close game though!
The sport that unites Catholic, Protestant and dissenter has had its day of days. Pity anybody who can't enjoy it. Some day.

14 wides for cork...it was painful watching them in the second half..so many chances...but so many wides. kerry flooded their own half and kept them pegged back at the 45. their long range shooting was awful.

tactics wise, kerry nailed it. not a great final, though, for neutrals.

Anyone else think that Tadgh Kennelly and Girve are the spit of one another?

yep. not quite separated at birth but similar. however, I doubt you would ever see girve do a cheesy riverdance impersonation like kennelly did when picking up sam óg yesterday.

I'd say girve would be more a swan lake type of guy.....

Any final Cork are beaten in is a great final as far as I am concerned.
