The Second Captains Podcast · Ep 3616: How Did Mayo Do It, Better Than The World Cup, Cubs Caps And Curses, Ken Called It - 27/07/26 · 27 Jul 2026 podcast

That famous scene, the photograph you referenced against Tyrone, for example, in 2003.

The amount of people that have brought that up to me.

Did you not see that there'd be a lot of space on the other side of the screen?

you don't know this is 2003 where you're playing traditional football and you're there and your inclination is I've just got to keep this and in fairness we did keep possession we didn't I always say there's a Dara Shearer on Boston who got dispossessed I'll hang those you got the pass away but it was stupid we were

ploughing into the tackles and just kind of thinking we'll get through this we'll get through this keep the ball in play they try to horse you out over the line but as Paul says like when you're in the middle of that maelstrom like your thinking isn't that clear and you know Mayo forced that hand they forced Kerry leading up to this game I said Paul Murphy will still play there was question marks about him after the semi-final you know and

you know after the quarter final they were saying you know is he you know maybe aging a small bit but you have to play him because he's so good at getting out of those situations and he would take the right choice in those situations most of the time but until such a time and I would imagine Kerry saw this coming two weeks out like say look this is what Mayo are doing this is what you know we're preparing for you have two weeks to prepare for it and until such a time as you experience it you can't you can't really deal with it and they didn't deal that well with it yesterday but that's a credit to Mayo more than a knock on Kerry's

Yeah, and he's done a job on Owen McIlhome.

I think it was memory service.

I was up in Oman.

I think he was on Owen McIlhome that day, who's a decent footballer as well.

And yeah, you know, they're all under 20s, you know, and you're kind of saying, that was one of the hopes that I had coming into the game that these three, that not all three of these lads would play well because it's so unusual for them to play well in their first All-Ireland final.

And you had Owen McGrath, Dara Byrne and Kobe McDonald.

I said, no.

maybe two out of the three of them will play well.

All three of them played their part, which is highly unusual in an all-Ireland final for such young lads as well.

But back to O'Donoghue, O'Donoghue is the driver of all that.

And I'd say we shouldn't underestimate possibly the heart from 2021.

The likes of Ryan O'Donoghue would have been carrying the few lads that were there.

They've seen the other side of it and they had heard the stories about the other years and that was all brought forward.

I'd say the likes of Aidan O'Shea probably would have had a role in that kind of
