Certainly huge banana skin for Dublin to say the least.

And they won 20 points to 10.

Cormac Costolo, 10 points.

Seven of them from play, one two-pointer thrown in.

He was brilliant on the day.

No Conor Callaghan, no Colin Basquale, no Eoin Merchant, no Lee Gannon.

And that kind of, I suppose, like even Ciarán Kenny was saying, everybody, they wrote us off.

Sorry, it doesn't have to be true.

If Ciarán Kilkenny has just heard it somewhere, it's true.

replay wasn't it the replay against Mayo he came off the bench he scored four points he was capable of just those amazing bursts of play yeah you've been saying all along you don't understand the extent to which Dublin have been written off Colin like if and everybody agrees with that point if they can get everybody fitting on the pitch then they won't be easily beaten by vast majority

So they'll have Westmead in a Leinster final where they'll be raging hot favourites, expected to win Leinster again.

Then they'll go into this All-Ireland Football Championship and they'll play Loud again.

They'll be favourites suddenly.

I mean, Loud, that's tricky now.

Loud will obviously be...

licking wounds and waiting in the long grass and thinking about that every day for several weeks.

But if they beat Loud, then they'll have one of the other winners from those first round matches for a place in the quarterfinals.

So, you know, their route through to the serious stuff is fairly...

Comfortable now, relatively speaking?

Okay.
