I agree with the Shark. These Yellow Cards are intended to punish foul play. For too long there has been a culture of so-called "professional fouls" in Gaelic Football in particular. It is just not right that a forward in a good scoring position should be deliberately taken down, and then ...

What odds? Well, they are all possibly going to be rated as the outsiders (Wastemeath getting the nod only because of what they did last year), but we know that that leg of the triple is as good as in the bag for us :wink: The Hurlers will always have a decent chance in Birr, so it's down to your be...

Thats brilliant BnMm. Are you brave enough to post that on the GAAboard ?

It's an old cliché; you learn more from your losses than your wins. Of course there has to be some truth in it. If you have lost a game, then your "game-plan" didn't work so you must "learn" how it should be changed. Conversely though, a win vindicates your game-plan, assuming yo...

Didn't mean to post twice, but "it" told me it had failed the first time. You just cant trust these bloody 'pewturs.

Excellent report Sharky and fair play to you for making the journey. I bet that drive home was happier than you anticipated. Indeed, no matter how poor Armagh were, the win will help our lads to feel good about facing into next weeks cruncher. Good to hear McManus back to good form too.

The fact that Babs "slagged off and dumped" a team that, just a couple of months later, managed to win the All-Ireland; this has got to hurt him. He claimed the players were not up to it, but I think the players proved that HE couldn't get them up for it, while a virtually unknown man coul...

Well written piece and I fully agree with you. I hadn't read that point attributed to Kieran Shannon: "if the current rules were in place, and we were experimenting with the old method, what would we be saying?". Good angle on the discussion, as is your wrap-up line: So essentially the nex...

Some of you probably read on GaaBoard.com about the Divisional teams in the Kerry championship. I have to say I really liked that idea, and if it is possible to pool resources in the Football hotbed of the Kingdom, then surely a similar scheme could work in the likes of Offaly. There can be little d...

Dont quote me on this but I think the PP is more into Golf than GAA. I think that the underage mentors manage to pool all the good resources so that "St. Vincents" is fielded as a Parish team, and I think they've been fairly competitive (even successful) on various occasions and at various...

I suppose the tape stopped because of the inevitable row that probably broke out then. Choose the most likely explanation: * the cameraman was embarrassed by it, * s/he didn't want to have taped evidence of the row that the GAC might look for later, * s/he wanted to join in the row. I vote for the l...

If I wasn't hanging around here, would yez be as quick to stick the dagger in Daingean so often? :twisted: Ye would? Fair enough so. Honestly though, being away from the Faithful sod now, I have no idea of the relative merits or potential of the various clubs. However, I am aware that the Maroons ar...

Sure why dont we jump on the same bandwagon as the Soccer and Rugby lads have and belt out "The Fields of Athenry"? I'll tell you why we dont, because it's s****. I'd vote for "Bohemian Rhapsody". By the time the crowd are finished singling it, the players would be so cold that t...

Yerra, I'm still working from an oul' bottle of "4711 Echt Kölnisch Wasser" that I nicked from the brudder back in the 70's. The ad said it "... feels like champagne on your skin ...". Tastes like it too!! :oops: An odd time I switch to the Hai Karate Aftershave, but that's only ...

Nah, I dont think it will happen like that. There couldn't be a hurler in Westmeath capable of scoring a sideline cut.
