You'd want your head examined or have daughters like Hopper McGrath, to manage a Ladies team thread

Is Flynn not gone from the GPA a good while?

He could be, did he step down before taking the RTE gig?

I was under the impression he gave it up ages ago

You’re right. Parsons is chairman now

Some shitshow

I believe he still has a wee say

RTE news : Girl struck with ‘untaped’ hurley awarded €40,000

The GPA need to get Flynner back in on a consultancy basis to steady the ship. This is what happens when you appoint muldoons to C suite positions to tick a box.

Am I off my head or was that not a clear penalty in the Galway v Mayo game?

That dolled up gimp ref did everything to keep Mayo in it He pulled same player later for overcarrying as she hopped the ball and kicked a score.

I can’t get my head around this. On one hand we all want equality. On the other hand, if this happened to a 14 year old boy he would get nothing. It’s a farce!

When we were in primary school Alex Kelly who had just come back from England lost an eye because Owen Roche swung past his head with an untaped hurley with a bit of metal jutting out. I’m pretty sure if Alex sued he would have got a pay out. The metal bands on hurleys are dangerous and players need to be warned to have them in order.

Was the band loose?

I had an awful cut on my leg from a loose band ( we call it a splice) when I was about 14, tje scar is still visible

I’d expect metal bands to be banned from hurleys before too long. They’d be no loss, even if I always found hurleys without metal bands to be a bit weird looking. Then again, I find it weird how some people play with hurleys with no tape above the boss. Maybe everybody finds everybody’s else hurleys a bit weird, as tailoring a hurley is such an individual thing.

This is an epic in Tralee.

Emma Duggan is something else.
