Dublin edge Kerry in combined team as ‘underdogs’ get the nod on paper

Kerry are the favourites to win this All-Ireland semi-final but, judging by this combined team, and we all know that the logic of the combined team is undefeated, then the bookies could be in for a bit of a shock.

Luckily for Kerry though, All-Ireland semi-finals aren't played on paper. They're played on grass. None-the-less, after knocking a few heads together, and in an attempt to pick the best from both, here at SportsJOE towers we landed on a team that has eight Dubs to seven Kerry men. Kingdom folk should feel free to send the abuse our way in whatever way they want. Some agonising calls had to be made along the way and, to be fair to him, Tadhg Morley can certainly consider himself an extremely unlucky man to miss out but those are the breaks. And John Small just about edged him. Kerry are the favourites, but the Dubs have the medals and there's no doubt about who has more to prove. The game throws-in at 3.30 this Sunday and, to be honest, it can't come around quick enough.
