00:00So Conor, you're a big RMAF fan, we're here in Camelot, can you describe the buzz around the place at the minute?
00:05Oh it's class, just absolutely buzzing around here. There's a wall down there painted orange and white, they're painting Crest on it right now.
00:15It's just absolutely class, everybody's buzzing on RMAF.
00:19Absolutely, and you were at the Kerry game of course, can you sum up the atmosphere at that game, it just seemed incredible.
00:24Oh my god, it was class, everybody was loving it, it was absolutely joyful to see RMAF win. Great atmosphere, it was lovely, I'm glad to see RMAF winning into the final.
00:36And now of course, Global is coming up next, they're a good team too, what do you expect for the All-Ireland Final?
00:40I'm expecting them all to put up a tight game, but I'm thinking RMAF will win about by three or so points.
00:49So Conor, anticipation is building here in Camelot ahead of the All-Ireland Final, just try and describe the buzz around the county at the minute.
00:56This here is absolutely class, you just have to see the crowd up here, it's absolutely brilliant.
01:00It's bringing me back to O2, I'm looking over at my grandchild there, my son's never experienced this, absolutely brilliant.
01:06Just one more.
01:07Yeah absolutely, and you were at the Kerry game of course at Coke Park, can you just describe the atmosphere that was in the stadium after that game?
01:13Yeah, listen, as I said, absolutely brilliant. Bit of nerves throughout the game, thank God it settled through the crowd, but they just built on that.
01:22And I think what the team showed is the sustainability there that they have, and they don't have to compete with anybody.
01:28Beat Kerry, and you can have it.
01:30And finally, of course the Galway next, in two weeks, you're going to win that game.
01:34Yeah, it's nearly like a trilogy isn't it? Yes, you can see it written in the stars, it's that home Galway, all my rivalry.
01:42I think it's two teams coming to the height, I can see it being another tight game.
01:48The Walsh, the Comer Park is going to be massive, and I think with our bench, that's going to be the difference today.
01:54We're over here in Camelot, the atmosphere is incredible, can you just sum up the buzz around the county at the minute?
02:00It's just unbelievable, the crowd is down in shames, it's amazing, it's just unbelievable, indescribable.
02:08We'll win and we're not going to do it. It's going to be unreal, I can't imagine what it's going to be like in two weeks' time.
02:13Well yeah, if the atmosphere is like this at the minute, it's incredible what it's going to be like.
02:17But can you imagine the kids, and it's so great for them isn't it, to have these heroes that are doing so well on the pitch.
02:22It's all the wee kids, my wee kids are in the under-4s and everything, just to see them down there on the pitch today, it's just indescribable.
02:31It reminds me of 20 years ago, not giving away points or anything, but nothing can compare, it's unreal.
02:37Yeah, and of course now they've got Galway next, Galway are a good team too, but what way do you see the All-Ireland Final going?
02:41I think they're good, I think they're good, they're a strong team, but look at the last match, look at this.
02:47The support that's behind them, I can't, it's phenomenal.
02:53Carl, there's some buzz here today in Cadillac, can you just sum up what's going on with this county at the minute, it's just madding.
02:58I can't believe it, 20 plus years before this just came around again, and you can see here today everyone's out in full force, buzzing for the final in two weeks' time.
03:09Especially for the young people, isn't it, the older generation, they had 2002, they had the buzz before, but for people your age, this is the first time you've experienced it.
03:16Yeah, our parents sort of grew up watching them winning 0-2 and all that there, but the younger generation that's come through here hasn't seen anything like this before, so we're all just buzzing, and you can see here today all the young ones out in their orange and white.
03:31It's class, and you're at the Kerry game, the semi-final, what about the atmosphere?
03:36I was in a hill actually for the Kerry game, it was unbelievable, all eyes on me.
03:45Hopefully you get something similar, of course you've touched on it, you've got Galway up next, what's your prediction for that game?
03:50I can only predict Armada, I know it'll be a very tight game, obviously Galway, they'll be down to get their hands on the trophy as well.
03:59So the likes of Shane Walsh and Comer could be dangerous men, but other than that, I still fancy Armada's going to take it home.
