    Because all the stars are shaping up mayo. European gold, soon to be followed by a conqueror of the world in boxing, then.... dublin won't know what hit them. Was at the match today though and they were fantastic .nearly as good as Mayo last Sinday.

    Tricky conditions and the Dubs done the basics brilliant. As I said earlier Connolly was brilliant and the work rate from Alan Brogan he was all over the place. He is a contender for player of the year for me. Kid brother looks a bit off the boil hasnt hit the form of last year yet but is a big time player.

    I dont think Donegal are ready for Dublin this year. The power all over the pitch will be too much. I would of been more worried if we got Kildare to be fair. This year is the Dubs best chance of winning Sam and if they do it they could go on and win another few in the coming years.

    My view from the Hill. I got drowned as well. A good win for the Dubs. They showed great fitness. Could have been a bigger win if they had taken the goals. Donegal are a dangerous team and it's a 50/50 IMO with the dubs. No hill tickets up on Ticketmaster:huh

    They are the masters at mincing words tommy.:tired Calling certain people "****s":huh. Then again I would expect no less. At this stage I hope Dublin or mayo win da all-ireland....but i still strongly stand by last weeks argument that this dublin team don't "deserve" an all-ireland moreso dan any other team. If they win it, then they deserve it

    Audley Harrison insists he won't hang up his gloves




    Audley Harrison's hopes of fighting British and Commonwealth champion Tyson Fury have been boosted after it emerged that Fury is yet to contact Martin Rogan over a bout.
    Fury is eager to take advantage of the momentum generated by his defeat of Dereck Chisora last month, and wants to face an illustrious opponent ahead of a potential fight against Wladimir Klitschko next year.
    Belfast taxi driver Rogan, who famously beat Harrison, has been suggested as a possible adversary - but he has received no approach from Fury's promoter Mick Hennessy.
    "There is no news yet [on Fury] and I have my sights firmly set on October 22," Rogan told *****.net. "It is all systems go for the EBU title. Mick [Hennessy] never spoke to me to arrange anything. I hear he called [Coleman] Barrett for a fight.
    "I have also been informed that Fury's team won't speak to me. It's OK, I am not worried. I am the people's champ here and I don't need Tyson Fury, he needs me. Mick Hennessy Pro have my number."
    Harrison has said on Twitter that he is interested in taking on Fury for what would be his comeback fight following an embarrassing effort against David Haye in the WBA heavyweight title clash in November 2010
