Good win alright, some impressive performances from Bolton and Hanafin, and Byrne and McNally in the second half. Refs decisions kept Longford in it just before half time and again near the end helped but a bit more of a respectable slant on the score line.

Hard to know how things will go against Sligo, won it a few years ago so should be pretty strong again I'd imagine.

You'd have to fancy Cork to make the final too. When they bet us two years ago there was a lot of talk about how that team was dominating the junior championship. Won it in 05 but due to eligibility rules those same players weren't eligible in 06, were eligible in 07 and won it, weren't eligible the following year but came back and won it in 09, again ineligible in 10 but came back and bet us in 2011, surely the cycle has to end at some stage?

Some week end - didn't realise the juniors are out as well - will make the other two but will have to rely on Twitter / KFM for the junior match. Scheduling leaves something to be desired..

Last but not least congratulations to the Juniors who rounded off a very good weekend for Kildare gas. It was badly needed.

What a week end !! - I can't remember the like of it supporting the Lilies.

I hope we all remember to look at the overall strength of the game in the county when the seniors make their exit from the championship. That team is in transition and a QF would be a great achievement if they get there. With the talent being nurtured the future looks rosy.

Great win for the juniors, capped off a fantastic weekend for football in the county.

Second All Ireland final in three years, not bad considering the management and players only got together a few months.

Not sure when Cork and Lancashire play each other but the final is down for the 24th of August.

48 years since our last All Ireland at any grade if I'm not mistaken.

Struggling to be optimistic about this one as Cork are very strong at this grade.

But we have to break our duck eventually. Hope to travel as I wasn't even born when we won that u-21 in '65 and I'd be miserable if I missed out on a chance to see any Kildare team lift an All Ireland.

Good luck to the lads..

It will be very tough. You'll note Cork have won it every two years since 2005 - the year after they win, the players that have won it are ineligible. They are eligible again the next year though. So, 2005, 2007, 2009, 20011... so if Kildare win this, it will be a great win because they'll have beaten a very strong team. But they nearly did it two years ago so they know it's not impossible.
