Donegal, three years ago, were a mess.
They were all over the place.
And now, all of a sudden, they're, you know, saying to Kerry, you just have to chase us now at this stage where we are.
Do you know?
Take out, obviously, the man being sent off, that game might have been a bit different, but I still think Donegal...
I don't think Mayo would have seen that maybe in some individuals where you're tackling, there'd be someone probably trying to get a free from you.
But I don't think it was to that level where a manager runs on and points out the wrong player.
Let's point out O'Connor, right?
And is so energized.
an animated to go this is the man get him sent off that he pushes him um i wouldn't have seen that in mayo like you know i wouldn't have seen that in any teams possibly playing maybe a couple of northern teams but we weren't competing maybe to our own the odd time in the all irons that we won um so i never really came up against that but i would say
And there's a nice, if you're going, let's say if we were in either our change room, let's say you're Kerry, you're definitely going, hey, listen, we owe these one.
You're definitely saying, let's put a stamp down here.
Now, if these are our biggest competitors for the All-Ireland this year, let's send the message here, right?
But then you need to also say, but we need to focus on what we're setting out here to do, right?
And the way we can actually set that marker down is by doing the process stuff that we talk about, the strategy, the tactics, the technical side of things, which at the end of that game, if Kerry stuck to that,
then they would have said, right, let's go.
Now it's one all.
Let's go.
If we ever meet again, we're in a much better place.
Now if they meet again, Kerry are kind of going, they've beaten us twice comfortably here.
