The waxing lyrical about the issues with the Mayo Footballing Psyche Thread

@Watch_The_Break

He’s signing as a rookie at 17 years of age. Odds heavily favour him being back in Ireland by the time he’s 20, with 3 years of pro level conditioning under his belt. Mayo should be paying them.

They said the same about Tommy Walsh and he was never really the same player again.

A list of the lads who came back and thrived would be interesting.

@Little_Lord_Fauntleroy

Compensating people who helped them in a different sport?

If kobe spent his summers playing tennis, as well should tennis Ireland get something?

Are gga players contracted to their clubs?

Every new rule the horrendous football committee brought it brought Gaelic football closer to Aussie rules.

The split season and forcing our best players to stop playing with the clubs for long portions of the year haven’t helped either. You have morons who think the gaa should be professional as well. The Aussies must be pissing themselves laughing at the complaining being done.

If you look at him and can’t see a serious athlete you don’t know ball

[Little_Lord_Fauntleroy]

Like, how dare they come over here and offer these hapless muldoons a better life

More lies

If you watch him play and immediately think of his athleticism you should pack it in.

He’s a proper footballer.

It’s ok AFL is a bastardised made up “sport” so we can just laugh at Kobe

Mate (see what I did there) every creature in Australia appears designed to kill. The place is one discarded cigarette away from total obliteration and it’s full of Aussies. I’m not sure it’s a better life than about 31* counties in Ireland.

*obviously it’s better than Cork

It’s a primitive sport for very good athletes.

I’m not sure what they are going to do with Kobe but it’s a pity as he was lad you’d like to watch play Gaelic football.

[Little_Lord_Fauntleroy]

Have you been to the sunshine coast?

[Raylan]

Oh I see.
You’re doubling down on your initial silly post

It must be a slow Monday morning

[myboyblue]

I have and it’s stunning. I didn’t love Brisbane and Hamilton Island was and I’m sure still is stunning

[BruidheanChaorthainn]

@Raylan

I’m not sure what you are saying.

If you don’t rate him as Gaelic footballer it’s you that need new eyes.

You’ve been very patient. Its almost like being a talented footballer and an athlete are mutually exclusive.

[Little_Lord_Fauntleroy]

Get back to me when abbeyleix is hosting the olympics mate

[Raylan]

Ah shure if it keeps him entertained

[peddlerscross]

The GPA survey said that the players want managers to be paid. And we all know what the players say has to be taken as gospel.

AFL is a shit game with very little pattern or structure to it. Some of the GAA journalists then do be waxing lyrical about the chaos of it all and are doing their utmost to turn Gaelic Football into a bastardised version of it. Marks and hooters and 20 man rucks underneath kickouts etc.

What the AFL do very well though is the razzmatazz they put on surrounding the games. The pageantry that occurs around the AFL Grand Final is intoxicating.

@Raylan

So you are admitting I’m right.

If you watch him play and immediately think what an athlete.

God help you.

He’s a beautiful Gaelic footballer.

Of course you are a split season zealot so it’s no surprise.

It’s you that need the new eyes chief I’m afraid.
