He obviously wasn’t as conspicuous as he was in scoring a few outrageous points earlier on but he probably wasn’t as anonymous as the consensus on here. That was a lovely fizzed pass for Barron’s extra time goal for example (albeit Barron takes all the credit for taking on Buckley and going on to finish). His last 10 minutes of normal time was probably poor alright but he was fine in extra time.

He scored a wonder point on 59 minutes and played a pass for the ages for Jamie Barron’s crucial goal in the first half of et. Cognitive bias on your part Id say. On the other hand the ponderous Tobert Lennon got the better of himin the air in et.

Fair enough. Far from cognitive bias im a huge fan of gleeson. But when you are hurler of the year you are held to high standards.

Sky coverage makes a nice change from RTE an odd time.

aye - Liam Sheedy thought Donal Cusack was taking the puck outs for cork today on the rte analysis. Lot of basic errors from the national broadcaster

Normal manner. Spoke about a world gone mad. Political correctness. This is a man who’s been involved in inter-county GAA since his minor days in 1972. It’s all over social media but this man has massive respect for players, opponents and everyone associated with the GAA. It’s madness. Etc etc.

He was a lot better than "former Hurler of the year " Tony Kelly was today.

This Galway lady is speaking lots of sense. A complete contrast to Mags D’Arcy last week.

A niece of the great Conor.

[binkybarnes]

Fair play to Duignan for pointing out the hypocrisy of the Dublin County Board. The vain cunts that made this decision will be seething

I can think of 3 inter county referees who he has so much respect for that he ended their careers.

It was hard to be sure but I’d say she has a much smaller hole than Conor

[Bisto]

Richie hogan??

[Midshipman_Asha]

He is 50 times the hurler Rob Lennon is.

[dodgy_keeper]

Now they’re out Barry Kelly might get a big match or two before the year is over.

Indeed he was. Absolutely nothing to do with my point mind you. But he was.

He was also better than former hurlers of the year Richie Hogan and TJ Reid & Michael fennelly

[braz83]

I laughed heartily at that from Duignan. Does he actually believe it? His horn for all things KK is disturbing

He is right though. A twelve week suspension for that would be madness. A mild censure would be enough.

[corner_back]

John Joe Farrell’s sister was taught to hold her hurl properly I see. Set up a goal and scored a cracker.

Ann Downey for the men’s senior job. She has the tactical nous to handle a sweeper system.

[balbec]

Almost as bad as Uncle Tom Dempsey.

[braz83]

The Leinster hurling fraternity seems to have had all the self respect beaten out of them over the last 20 years

[Appendage]

12 weeks for the cunt. He had no business being down there. Bullying referees since 1999.

Des Cahills tie is a thing of wonder.
