Some fairly selective memory from Jim there, in the first year under his reign they were horrendously defensive. Absolute puke football. It improved after that alright, but he made no apology for it at the time. Need to get our defense right before we work on attack, I think he said at the time
It defines the tackle, and I was making the point that I thought he (Quigley) tried to tackle the player (illegally) a player off the ball i.e. before either of them were in possession of the ball.
Simply put Quigley used his body to shove his marker out of the way, you can see that by the way the Mayo player falls. There was no shoulder to should contact to make this happen so it should have been a free out, unless it was a dive.
“There’s people on the telly talking about poor Aidan O’Shea going to work on Monday morning, but I wouldn’t feel sorry for him. He drives about in a free car – he gets enough from the GAA without getting penalties as well. He has this, that and the other so I wouldn’t be feeling too sorry for him.”
