Dub 1-10 to 9 up at half time after playing with strong wind. Dublin started well but tipp gradually got on top and should be ahead only for shooting a pile of wides . Dublin have missed nothing but we are short a couple of starting defenders and look very vulnerable at the back
Yeah I think so - is that them both gone for the championship first round?
It didnât show him getting the card but I thought the commentator said something about a second yellow
Whoâs this now?
He was definitely on a yellow.
Judging from the Harnedy/Delaney thing, theyâre suspended if straight reds.
Thereâs some distinction between regular season league and playoff games is there? Had a look back at both incidents there and Iâd imagine theyâll both be appealed.
Clearyâs was dangerous and reckless rather than intentional I think, harsh enough red
He did put his hurl across to fend off Bennett but no intent to strike, whether thatâs enough. I thought Duggan had less to answer for.
The ref with the âmangeâ loves a controversy
I didnât see clearly what Duggan did, Iâd be surprised if Cleary gets off though.
While he definitely didnât mean it, it was like he forgot where his hurley was and it was quite reckless. Itâs not as if the ball was there.
Dublin still 4 up 15 left
Duggarâs wasnât a straight red. It was a second yellow. I didnât think there was much in it. The Cleary one was a red under the current rules. I suppose it was one way to put an end to his embarrassment. I believe there was a bad blow on Shane Bennett in the corner but I couldnât see it from my angle.
Albeit that Clare were abject it was good to see Ozzie have his first good game in 2 1/2 years.
They should place him wing forward and leave him settle there for the year itâs his best position
Is the semi in a neutral venue? Probably Thurles
Duggan had his left arm across to block Roche to catch with his right, Roche had a bit of momentum and sort of clotheslined himself. Seemed a normal enough contest under the ball.
Level now Tipp should stumble through.
Dubs back in front
Thatâs what I thought. Nothing in it.
