Should Kerry have been awarded a free in the dying seconds of their encounter with Dublin?

It proved a pivotal moment, as Jim Gavin’s side swiftly went up the other end and scored the final point of the game.

THERE WAS A moment of controversy in the climax of today’s thrilling All-Ireland semi-final between Dublin and Kerry.

In the dying stages of today’s match, with Dublin leading by a point, Kevin McManamon put in a strong challenge on Peter Crowley that many watching felt should have been a free.

The referee waved play on, however, and it proved pivotal, as Diarmuid Connolly went up the other end to score the final point of the game, ensuring Dublin’s place in the All-Ireland SFC final in the process.

With that in mind, what do you think? Should it have been a free to Kerry?

    @Gerald Broflovski: I agree with you Lamar has 11 other pro bowlers on his team Russ has one. But I can see how Lamar is going to be mvp. And I don’t know if Russ will be able to go into Green Bay and win this week without a running game

    @Rossielover: No run game is actually a benefit to the seahawks since Russ has to throw now, I think seahawks will edge it on sunday against a declining Rodgers, Seahawks +4.5 is my lock of the week
