Dublin’s woes continued in Tralee on Saturday night and Ciarán Whelan joined Will Slattery and Michael Verney on this week’s Throw-In podcast to look back on all the weekend football action.
“I really thought Dublin would have been set up with a little bit more structure defensively going into the game,” says Whelan. “And then particularly in that fifteen minute period where Kerry just ate them. There was no effort to stem the flow of that period and it just meant Kerry could control the game.”
Meanwhile, elsewhere in Division 1, Armagh beat Tyrone as the All Ireland champions saw four players dismissed in a remarkable game; Donegal picked up their first win over Kildare; and Mayo overcame Monaghan.
In Division 2, Andy McEntee’s troubles continue with Meath’s loss to Roscommon who are joint top with Galway and Derry.
The hurling Leagues also began over the weekend with John Mullane joining the show and the biggest surprise of all coming from Wexford’s three point win over Limerick, pointing to Limerick’s one possible weakness in their squad depth.
But, for Mullane, he reckons Waterford and Dublin are two counties to watch in this coming campaign.
The Throw-In will have new episodes every Monday bringing you the best insights and analysis from all the weekend GAA action.
