Congrats to Dublin. I wish Jim Gavin would smile a little. His Posh Spice impression dampens the occasion. #AllIrelandFinal

#AllIrelandFinal should be renamed groundhog day for Mayo. So unlucky but in sport you make your own luck and have to be clinical/ruthless.

Regardless of whether you were delighted to see Dublin win or distraught for the third year in a row, I think we can all agree with this.
The greatest sport in the world. #AllIrelandFinal
