- Talk about unlucky, and we all thought we were struggling, sorry for your troubles Mrs Ordinary!!!
colm Iran (Islamic Republic of) - I'm sick of all this spin but on the other side we got what a majority of voters voted for.
The bloody thing is that I never meet anyone who voted for them
Gerard Collins Ireland - And now the Swine Flu will be in full swing by end of August also. This is going to cause huge logistical problems for the medical services and economy. A new Tamiflu resistant form hasreached Denmark. If people start dying because of lack of access to medical services this government will have blood on their hands as well. No excuses now Brian & Mary about other countries this & that, get the vaccines here now and get a reasonable plan in place and don't spare the expense. The banks can wait a little longer for our cash put the people first.

- Impossible , it takes time for the full impact of this crises to unfold, if world economies are tanking while their governments are spending like drunken sailors, what is going to happen when the money runs out?

- Dublin's real chance will come after the leinster final, its sadly known by all that leinster is the weakest province and cannnot provide Dublin with any real test.
greg Other - Dara O Briain. Could you be any more blind?? GAA sports aren't the most popular sports in Ireland any more. Rugby and football are. When most people pick up the sports section of the newspaper they want to read about football and rugby and not GAA. And as for Dublin being the only forthress to rugby and football cliques, what a completely idiotic comment to make. As a Leinster fan and Dub I admit that Dublin is a rugby and football stronghold but just as much as Limerick and Cork are too. Just ask any fan of our other great rugby team, Munster. People like you need to get that massive chip off your shoulders and wake up. Also to answer your question "What's bothering everyone about John Gaej". John Gaej comes on this site every week no matter what the question is and has never once made any sort of intelligent informed comment. He puts down football, rugby and cricket just because he is a bigot and hasn't the mental ability to understand them. Even when there is a question on GAA he still has to make comments on Rugby and football. The guy has a massive inferiority complex and dare I say it is most likely a closet rugby and football fan but won't admit it.
To the question in hand, yes Dublin are contenders. They are most years and will eventually get it right so it could well be this year.
Phil Ireland - Just the same old ABD rubbish, Just like those muppets on RTE and TV3.

- What use would it do to have ol' queenie vist us? Rouse the rabble and remind us just how better she is than us lowly folks. Keep her out or try her for Bloody Sunday!!!
Nick Ireland - One has to face the fact that there is still a portion of the population that wallows in victimhood. They would resent the formal visit of The Queen. Ireland is now a mature free country and should be up to a visit by HM. A majority of Irish would welcome her with open heart and arms. The past should not be forgotten and lessons learnt. But the Irish virtue of forgiveness and love should reign.
DANIEL WILLIAM SULLIVAN Brazil - Yes!
