Of course it’s taught but not many others could do it to his level. It would be taught into other forwards but it doesn’t work to the same effectiveness. Flanagan and Gillane have that chemistry at this stage that is impossible to replicate.

I guess you could try and teach some players till you’re blue in the face and they wouldn’t grasp it.

Gillane is absolutely phenomenal but he leaves so many goals behind him by aiming high as opposed to going low.

In fairness, I think with that chance, he would’ve been hooked for trying to go low. The hurley would’ve had a downward motion and would have been very hard not to be hooked by Ryan in that circumstance. He realised how close behind Ryan was so he had to swing the hurley up if he was to shoot. Another option is keep going and bat it but he would’ve been closed down I reckon

Fair enough think some suggest he’s a shoulder issue as well but his finishing can be frustrating

1457

It certainly can be. He does have a habit of going high all the same. Whenever he goes for bounce off the ground it’s usually unstoppable.

From the top of my head, he got goals like that against Cork and Tipp last year as well as yesterday. Hegarty is the only one who it should be acceptable to go high because he just has such ferocious power

We’ve hardly been at full strength since the 2021 Final.

@Thomas_Brady doing great work on that

1466

He’s a freeze frame expert only. Hasn’t moved on to motion picture or ‘talkies’ yet.

1467

Probably looked like he lead with the head before no 2 falls down

1468

There was a straight red in there for striking alright for Adam Hogan. Not to mention the certain goal denied due to messing up the advantage rule.

But sure look, you just won’t hear us going on about these things.

Im robbing them, just to let you know

Noteworthy to for where the unfortunate Cian Nolan is when the whistle is blown. Left Gillane all alone

Nolan should have walked for second yellow there.
Hogan definitely should have been at least booked.

Hegarty blackguarded
