2015 All Ireland Football Championship - FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE IT STOP

so you are also now arguing against rules because you dont think the refs are doing it right. Still, after 2 years of the rule you still havent grasped it and think everyone else is wrong.

why would Kerry have gone for goals when they were in front? Or does that not suit your other agenda trying to argue against facts.

Advantage
Advantage Rule is defined as:
“When a foul is committed the referee may allow the play to continue if he considers it to be to the advantage of the offended team. He shall signal that advantage by raising an arm upright. If he deems no advantage to have occurred, he may subsequently award a free for that foul from where it occurred*. The referee shall allow the advantage to run by maintaining his arm in the upright position for up to five seconds after the initial foul or for less time if it becomes clear that no advantage has accrued. He shall apply any relevant disciplinary action.”

It pretty much is a free shot rule on that reading

I think its safe to say the Tyrone player @Mac was referring to simply didnt back himself. That can happen in a big game. Not everyone is able for the big moments.

I’m not the one who hasn’t grasped it - you are. It’s not a free shot rule, do you not understand that? It’s an advantage rule. If the advantage is played and the chance is spurned then that should be that. Unbelievable how you still not grasping it.

A bit like any Laois footballer ever.

No. An advantage is an opportunity, not a conversion of that opportunity.

So you’re comparing the Tyrone footballing mentality to that of every Laois footballer. Interesting about turn.

Why would I do that? I’m just pointing out that the scenario you outlined is more suitable to counties like Laois who are not serious teams.

Sure you were buddy. Its been a heck of a few days for you, its only natural you’d start to wane somewhat.

Leave the analysis of All Ireland semi finals to those with experience of them, you bog dwelling monkey.

For a man who struggles to understand and date women, this Nimby maniac is doing a fine impression of a woman on her periodic blob.

This has been coming for a while, I predicted the meltdown for Wednesday after Kerry set fire to them, but I didn’t take into account he’d start immediately after the game on Sunday and not go for a few pints like most normal folk.

classic.

#EVERYONE ELSE IS WRONG

If that is the text of the rule, and you haven’t in fact made it up, then it is indeed a free shot.

When was the last time Laois played in one? Leave the football talk to the experts, not the never weres.

So wait, you as an Italian Armagh man are more qualified to talk about an All Ireland semi final that Tyrone played in than myself?

I even put it in bold type for you fella. One more time so

If he deems no advantage to have occurred

Not - “if he doesn’t take his opportunity, tough titties”

Your interpretation of the rule is incorrect, whichever way you choose to ignore the highlighted text

No, I think it proves the majority on this forum are incredibly stupid and I am one of the few enlightened posters here.

Yes, an advantage would be a chance accruing, not the conversion of a chance. Do you understand the difference?
