Hill 16

He just threw his ass out at the Dublin man and he turned inside and swung a lovely one over.

And of course, the sunburned, scummy dubs above on Hill 16 are beginning to froth at the tip now, TJ, it's fair to say.

A two-point lead has been turned into a 3-2 lead for Mayo as Michael Darragh-McCauley fetches a fabulous catch there above his head and a quick ball inside.

The ball evades everyone and Gerkafke picks it up.

And you could see the clock at the other end, at the hill end at the time.

And he said he saw the clock, he knew it was nearly up, and he said, my intention was to just run to Hill 16 and not stop running with that ball no matter what.

And that's essentially what he did.

And hopefully won.

Of course, the players don't really care what he thinks.

They kind of did their own thing before the game when they tried to start a riot down on front of Hill 16.

Nothing to do with Mickey Moran, of course, as the thug Kieran Whelan comes back on after he tried to take the head off and Pather Gardiner is holding his groin.

He seems to have got a problem with one of his bollocks.

Now that final, as we alluded, Kerry did win it, 12 points to 1-6, but this is the birth of the new Dublin.

This is the birth of Hill 16.

All of that that comes with it.

And as I said earlier on, Dublin do come in 58.

She'd jump up and

spin like Ken in fucking Street Fighter and then punch in the air and drive the ball into fucking Hill 16 on the other end.

Yeah,

exactly.

It's probably the most historic book we'll do because in 50 years people are going, why is there cardboard cutouts in the stand? What was that all about? An All-Ireland Final with nobody.

I was the only fella probably on Hill 16 that day.

And Dublin scored real early.

That's right, Dean Rock got a goal.

Like at that stage, I didn't go on the pitch for the whole game.

I was up around the stands.

I was talking about the Hill 16 earlier.

Yeah.

Like, I mean, I saw a lot of pictures after the game.

You were running down to Hill 16, holding the cup above your head.

It must have been a great thrill, though, being part of all of that.

Oh, yeah, it was unbelievable, in all fairness, yeah.

Have scarves and headbands and go off to the stadium.

Your ham sandwich in Hill 16.

I want to know what a game day is like in MCG and what you hope a normal game day will carry through to the NFL.

I think people think of the volume for sure at the start, but traditionally we're talking meat pies and sausage rolls and a couple of frosty ones for those that enjoy that, or Coke Zero if that's your vibe.
