@Mac

Just puts in perspective how good a manager the oul rogue is.

Lol London giving Leitrim a hiding.

Some very derogatory comments from a player during the week complaining a bout the unbalance of the provincial championships and the general structure of championship. Thrust of it was “we could even have a team from another country playing in Connaught Final”.

What the fuck Wicklow, thats A disgrace.

My nephew goes up to Crokes and the focus on, and attention to detail on skills training is unbelievable. He’s 7 and is constantly practising what he’s shown there. And not just basic skills, all of them. Seriously impressive. Not involved myself for years o couldn’t say if this is widespread in other co or not

It’s pretty widespread Dan. I have been saying for 6-7 years that Gaelic Football will be view around the world as a top game I. 10-15 years. We are only at the beginning now o the upward curve. The skill is about to match the fitness over the next few years, it’s going to be great.

McGeeney up to his old tricks now delaying the second half, a great old Armagh trick that one. Did it to Laois in 2003 1/4 Final, 25 minutes I think it was.

That’s twice KK has fisted over when 1 on 1 with the keeper. Shoot for goal to fuck. Annoys the hell out of me.

@tazdedub

Ah for fuck sake O’Gara. thought we had seen the last of him.

Tidy bit of skill out of him there.

Mc Goldrick really doesn’t like the Kildare lads trying to impede the Dublin players, some ridiculously soft frees being awarded

[myboyblue]

Taxi for McGrillen. What a talent O Gara is.

Isn’t impeding players illegal?

@myboyblue

Heard it was Mick Deegan and McGeeney clashed on the sideline, Lyster believes it was Gavin. McGeeney is now 5 years in Kildare and he goes out to play Dublin like that? Ridiculous.

Said he was a bluffer for years. Don’t still maintain that completely as he has improved them somewhat, but it’s a silly approach alright.

Hawkeye makes an appearance.

He is annoying the fuck out of the other forwards as well. Simple hand pass to a forward in the edge if the square and it’s a goal.

It’s against the rules of Gaelic Football, don’t honk it’s illegal though.

Tackling isn’t.

[Rocko]

Lovely point by Brennan, well the move was lovely. Whole midfield was emptied and Cluxton was able to kick straight to Brogan. Couple of nice quick passes and a simple point.

Nice pedantry

Impeding isnt tackling.

[tazdedub]

Are Leitrim making a comeback against London or is it all over?

Does tackling not impede?
