There are so many elements even to answering that question, because I was just walking out of Croke Park yesterday and I met more than one dub saying, it's Kerry's to lose, paraphrasing Tomás's comments.
In terms of, was it the weekend to meet Kerry?
When the draw was, before the draw for the quarterfinal was made, there was part of you saying, you know, what's the best draw here even to get?
Yeah.
it was going to be Louth or Tyrone or Galway and the thinking was maybe Galway are supposedly one of the big three or four and you'd rather not get them after a week three of the teams that weren't rested for two weeks won the weekend so I don't know if there's something in that either but the weekend to get carried there was a very very strong narrative down here that
Asher, you know, we beat Tyrone last year, but people weren't analysing that semi-final last year.
Tyrone were damn close if they had taken their chances in the first half.
David Clifford's goal kind of changed the nature of that game and it became a six-point win and it was probably more than a six-point win.
But Tyrone had played games and had come through games.
They had lost after extra time.
They had won by a point away to Roscommon.
They had won at home in Oma.
against Mayo and they had come through these tough and crucially then they were lightly raced because this was only their fourth game and you know they were fresh and they had a game plan and you know they had people who had again experience of playing against Kerry and beating Kerry on the ridge you know when McIlhome has done wreck against us on the ridge like previous times Ciarán Daly Sean O'Donnell all these lads Ronan Cassidy they're all decent footballers and
Only for Shane Murphy was as good as he was.
I mean, that Conquil Patrick's performances at midfield are going to cause you trouble any day of the week.
But only for Shane Murphy was as good as he was and able to keep the ball away from him, keep it in Kerry's hands.
Was it 26 out of 31 times and then his restart, which is phenomenal.
Kerry don't get out of that game.
And Tyrone do not crucially get level or get ahead.
Because if it got to level and if it went extra time, I think Kerry would have been in trouble.
