A guy hit me in the exact same way back in the 2005 galway champ. 3 operations and many physio sessions later I have no more than 60% movement in my arm.

Its a dangerous stroke, deserved a red… end of.[/quote]
Listen scan, that wouldn’t be a red card in an intercounty game, full shtop.

Spot on m8. Johnny Giles would love their honesty of endeavour.

Wouldn’t or Shouldn’t?

You’ll see one again someday mate, don’t worry.

You must be as soft as puke. It was a harmless clatter.

A clip with the hurl is a sending off. End off. It was stupid, pointless and deserved it’s red.

It should be a reevery time it happens but as one of the intelligent posters notes it isn’t generally applied in inter county games.

Fior gaels can fuck off. I trust my own eyes and don’t need twitter to form my opinion.

Nor do I, it only confirms my opinion to be correct.

I would fear for hurling if little slips like that are to be considered sendings off.

You are wrong. He stuck him deliberately, it wasn’t a slip.

Wouldn’t.

I’m quite happy with my assessment pf this incident and this referee. Regardless Thomas’ are worthy winners and well done to them. The Wests Awake.

Happy and wrong.

If this is wrong, I’d rather not be right. In fact Hurling will be the poorer for my being wrong.

Shouldn’t be too hard there’s 6 on every year.

So hurling would be poorer for the punishment of cowardly, pointless and dangerous slaps on player’s hands/elbows as they’re running by?

Why not just eliminate from the game? It’s nasty and in fairness to Sexton he’s consistently sent people off for it.

I hate this shite of people justifying cowardly dirty strokes as it being a mans game, fuck off.

Anyone who’s played the game can tell the difference between a dirty stroke and a manly/fair stroke, perhaps this is where your failings lie Mbb.

many’s a person has come in from a game with broken fingers and to an extent wrists they can be justified by going for the ball, but breaking a lads elbow, no dont think so.

Why not eliminate all physicality from the game, we’d have great free scoring games, imagine the scores that’d be racked up? We’d have a great product. You, the Count and the Galway fella might be onto something here. It could also spell the end of physcal sides such as Kilkenny as strong powers in Hurling. There migh be something in this.

The only one on to something is the count. If you had ever actually played hurling you’d realise there’s nothing more cowardly than a getting hit in an unprotected hand or arm while your playing the ball. You think getting this kind of belt off a pussy who’s afraid to meet you head on makes someone soft. Clueless. And 24 hours after pretending your from Offaly your now vicariously speaking as a Kilkenny supporter! Have you no pride these counties are supposed to be your rivals. Galway did better against Kilkenny when the games got physical last year, Donnellans sending off killed us in the replay. So your wrong on all counts.

This m&w fella is a howl :smiley:

Well said mate.

And your a coward who never played hurling and hates where he’s from while perversely and pathetically celebrating that kip getting to all Ireland quarter finals as a major achievement. I think all of the above has been clearly established.
