Just rewatching the game on RTE's coverage and in the first minute "Dublin have better players, I mean who in the Donegal team would get into the Dublin team. Murphy, maybe Frank McGlynn, that's it"
Total bollocks. Even before yesterday I would've had our entire back 6 ahead of the Dublin back 6, plus Big Neil in midfield to partner MDMA. Fair enough the Dublin forwards are incredible but I still think the narrative of Donegal showing more heart is kinda ridiculous, it's as if the media and people don't think we have incredibly talented and skilful players to go with the system Jim's put in place.

Yeah definitely, Karl Lacey and McGee anyway, McBrearty as well.
Funny enough now Donegal are 8/13 favourites to beat Kerry after that after being such underdogs against Dublin. Will be a different game against Kerry especially with the form of O'Donoghue and the return of the long ball to Donaghy. Will be an even game.

Can't wait for the game against Kerry, should be brilliant battles all over the pitch. Dave Moran against Big Neil in the middle of the park as well.

Anyone watching the Hurling today? Have a good feeling for Tipp today if Callanan can have a good start, but the Cats are never easy bet

Incredibly nervous about tomorrow. Will be watching it in an Irish bar in Seoul. Normally would be in Croker or if I couldn't get a ticket I watch these kind of matches on my own because I get so stressed.
Apparently tockets are much harder got than in 2012 which surprises me. My Dad only got a ticket last night and he has contacts all over the country. Lots of people have no tickets that deserve ones too, although I remember in 2012 everyone pretended they had no ticket til the day of the game
Fuckin hell I just hope we do it. It's a different feeling from 2012 for sure

My dad got a ticket lucky enough his friend was in the Ulster council.
Getting close now do you think they will do it?

I'll be bitterly disappointed if they don't. I feel like they should and I don't like that feeling. It's hard to know really if they replicate the Dublin performance it's hard to see Kerry living with that but then, hard to say whether Donegal can do that again.
No idea but I'm so nervous

It was two incidents for me, Durkin's kick out and hitting the post at the end. Otherwise there was nothing to separate the teams in what was as much of a stalemate as you'll get in an All-Ireland final.

Didn'f like the glee of the commentary on RTE. Thought the teams were pretty inseperable but Kerry just about took their chances over us. Feel we left a lot of chances out there and that is bitterly disappointing.
I just hope Donegal football continues as it has in the last 4 years. There was a lot of talk of this being a dream final, of Kerry being the standard and trying to emulate the culture of football down there. I just hope losing both finals today doesn't effect that. We have so much enthusiasm for the game in Donegal that this team has tapped into and I just really hope it continues
The squad owe Donegal nothing though. The likes of Kavanagh, Gallagher, McFadden. Lacey even. You saw it in Jims post match, it comes down to families and commitment and.. I dunno if you'll see the likes of Lacey for Donegal again.
Just so heartbroken
