Last Sunday was a disappoint­ing one for Kerry as they went down to defeats in both the National Football and National Hurling leagues...

That final score line actually flatters Kerry. It was a first Croke Park defeat and humbling for some of the young brigade. Dublin are just on another planet right now.

As Dublin toyed with Kerry and the crowd shouted “Olé” with every Dublin pass in the last few minutes today, it brought me back to the many times Kerry did the very same to us. Honestly who would have ever thought we’d see a Dublin team do that to Kerry in Croke Park?

As a Dub to be living at a time when a Dublin team like this is playing is surreal... Kerry up to today really felt that they are as good.. afraid not.... wow and wow. by the end of this run, dub may lead the roll of honour

If Kerry pundits focus too much on how they performed well early on, and on how Dublin could get nervy when talk of 4-in-a-row ramps up this summer, then a cold bucket of reality could be heading their way. Well off the standard last year, and huge work to do to narrow the gap.

Dublin beat Kerry by 12 POINTS yesterday without 8 of their key players named in the 26 man squad. In the 8 missing there’s 38 All Ireland medals between them. Frightenin­g how strong Dublin are right now...

Dublin/Kerry playing out a brilliant game of football with very few people being able to see it on the grounds of HQ having sold themselves out again to the highest bidder. The sooner capitalist worshippin­g, greedy little gombeen men get out of the GAA, the better. #AllianzLea­gue

Dublin beat Kerry by 11 points in the league final two years ago and were pushed all the way in by them in All-Ireland semi-final later that year. I’d fully expect Dublin to beat Kerry later in the year, just not like they did yesterday. #GAA

Luke Scully @Scullybone­s029 I can’t see Dublin being prevented from a four in a row this year, thumping of Kerry is ominous. Not that I’m upset about this.

Watching Kerry yesterday the phrase came to mind “Startled Earwigs” #DubvKer

Some moments went Dublins way early on in the game, that made it such a convincing win. That being said, they always looked in control. Game was over after 45 minutes #GAA #DUBvKER
