So who do we fancy to plat Donegal in the final? |

As total a second half domination as Donegal yesterday. Whether that was down to Paudie or the complete collapse of the Armagh kick out, I'm not sure. a bit of both probably. Donegal and Tyrone in one bag, Kerry and Meath in the other. |

Hardly any point turning up for the semi final either I wouldn't think.... |

Ted, you could have been in the play off places and still looking at the relegation spots for most of last season. Maybe a small exaggeration. but not much. As ever. the championship is 24 shades of average, it doesn't take much to move from below average to above. |

Dubs look like the team least equipped to adapt to the new rules, barely able to find players to kick one pointers let alone two. Mr.Sheen is right, you can't have two pointers for frees without upping the reward for a goal. |

Well, ironically, the Dubs imo were the biggest culprits of tactical fouling over god knows how many years. Knock someone over and get everyone back in your half, it's a win. But then it's a bit ridiculous not to allow 45s to be two pointers, again, generally that arises from an attempt to prevent a goal. You're right, leave things as they are, and increasing the points tally for a goal to four, or maybe even five, must be a consideration. |

Dessie Farrell steps down as Dubs boss. |

Yeah that's the one big gripe I've had with the rule changes. Bring someone down in and around the goal when they might score a three pointer, and you get a free shot for one point. Knock someone over in midfield and they've apparently earned a shot at two. Nonsense! But generally, the rule changes have been a big positive. |

The new rules have made football watchable again, and any of the eight in the quarter finals could claim a decent shot at being All Ireland Champs. I've enjoyed watching the football almost as much as the hurling this year, and a year ago I wouldn't have believed that possible. |

Think we have to see how JS sets up the team to have any idea of how we'll do tbh. I think Kolli and Lloyd will be gone - sold or loaned - and I think we need a target man in. I think Field and Varane are not the two we need in a 4 man midfield. Maybe Field-Morgan-Varane works as a three, but we don't have replacements for Varane or Field, assuming Colback goes. I don't know whether we have LB covered witb Larkeche plus others. If I was pushed for just one more in, it'd be the target man. And being really cheeky, it'd be an upgrade on Frey, who I really really like but who probably isn't going to be fit for more than half our games. |

Donegal were outstanding second half. Felt that game would provide this year’s Champs. Thought the Dubs were pretty poor and Tyrone not a huge amount better. |

Don't know if Les had anything to do with Ainsworth's appointment, but I can't remember many on here saying it was a good appointment. i think to most it was clearly an awful decision. |

Really did not see that coming. Still Cork for me though. |

Wow. Limerick, with a man advantage, 3 points down to Dublin in the hurling. Surely not?? |
