@Appendage

I heard you were a top, top Sigerson player @TSG.

Father Aloysius told me.

[Appendage]

That’s a dumb rating for you @sidney.

Conditioning isn’t the only factor to be considered.

[Sidney]

I’d also like to know the difference in physical conditioning between Francie Bellew and Sylvie Linnane.

[Sidney]

@Sidney

The physical demands are pretty much the same, mate. The same sprints, similar amounts of endurance levels needed to last the same amount of time on the same pitch, pretty much the same upper body strength needed to take basically the same tackles.

Kev?

[flattythehurdler]

I don’t think that the physical demands of hurling and football are that similar at all. You need to be a fuck of a lot fitter to play football at a decent level for a start.

Here’s a picture of the top scorer in this year’s All-Ireland football championship.

Would you deem the top scorer in this year’s All-Ireland football championship to be playing the game at a decent level?

[flattythehurdler]

No tot that game, no. How much of it did he play?

[myboyblue]

Wrong

[Sidney]

The question is a simple one, pal.

Is the top scorer in this year’s All-Ireland senior football championship, ie. the lad pictured above, playing the game of Gaelic football to a decent level?

[flattythehurdler]

No.

Disagree rating.

@Matty_Hislop

I was shocked by the conditioning of stick hurlers in this years championship. When you see fat mullockers like Joe Canning in the running for player of the year you know something is wrong. I’d say Kilkenny’s success is more down to their fitness levels than anything else. The handful of other counties that take this pursuit seriously obviously don’t train very hard.

The fat mullocker that is riding Rachel Wyse?

#winning.

[KinvarasPassion]

Oh no he’s not

[myboyblue]

Wronger

[Mac]

Not the top scorer, Cillian O Connor is

[Nembo_Kid]

I would say footballers are required to be a lot fitter than hurlers. How often do you see a corner back bombing down the pitch in hurling? Rare if ever.

Hurling can be very aimless with lads just bashing the ball the length of the pitch whereas football requires a lot of support play and building possession which can take a lot out of you.
