Dara Byrne got 1-2.
So, you know, they put Louth to the sword very quickly, but Louth,
unfortunately from the loud point of view seemed to put up the flag quite quickly and it became a non-match really in the second half.
Against Cork, you know, Cork would feel that they'd maybe left it behind them from a shooting efficiency point of view but David's right from the point of view that Andy Moan is in his first year in charge, he's got them to an All-Ireland final
And, you know, every underdog has a chance.
It's just, it's hard to see where they can get that win from unless there's a bit of a systems failure from a Kerry point of view.
But what I'd be concerned about a little bit is Kerry's bench seems to be heavy loaded compared to Mayo.
It was like Brian O'Brien, Tom Sullivan, Paul Geeney, who's a serious talented player, Mark Kennedy.
You know, if things were to go wrong for Kerry,
Jack O'Connor can turn around and fix them, whereas if things had to go a little bit west or pear-shaped for Mayo, I don't know if Andy got that strength and depth.
I know he's Paddy Durkan and Aidan O'Key and maybe Jeremy O'Connor, but Kerry's bench is younger, it's fresher in many ways, and Kerry ultimately might have the experience.
And unfortunately, and I say this with a certain amount of regret, obviously, but it reminds me a little bit of last weekend's hurling, where the Gower supporters went up hoping and praying and really hoping that things would happen, but they just perished at the rocks of Limerick that have gone for 1-6 now, and were just far, far superior.
So Kerry have been down this road many, many times, these players.
Mayo's haven't, and it's difficult for me to see how Mayo can win this game.
I'd accept that, most definitely.
Firstly though, I'd say I think Jason Foley is an outstanding player.
and Ryan or Donoghue won't maybe have the freedom.
But look, Donoghue's playing really well.
He's shown great leadership.
No one can doubt that.
