NFL Division 1 2024

Roscommon were poor,  but probably should have won it. Keeper had a shocker for kick outs, worth at least 3 points to Mayo,we handed them a goal. Referee bought all the usual cynicism from Mayo, he was awful.
The only time he should be let near a whistle again, is when he goes to a rave.

Gaelic football has gotten so hard to referee. Players in todays game practice how to win frees. It's hard to distinguish between legitimate and fabricated fouls.

To add to it many referees have never played the game at any level.

Then there is a majority of the viewing public who don't have a clue of the rules or their interpretation.

Don't worry.  Jarlath will sort it out.

That's not true, you can see players slapped away with both hands, not holding him up, go watch some of the instances again

Not all cases I know. But I think you're falling for the auld forward cuteness tbh if you thought there was a lot. It was good to see the ref allowing the play to continue today and not giving the easy decision unless a clear foul.

[tyroneman]

Kerry far from shrinking violets today. Well. Versed in the tactical foul or body check off the ball.

Curious why
1. Point that hit top of post and bounced in wasn't allowed
2. How Sean O'Se avoided a black card for a textbook pull down

Really can't understand why playing a game should make someone a more suitable adjudicator on it. Almost to a man, players interpret the aggression levels of teammates on an entirely different scale to that of their opponents. Plus, if anything, players want a "dodgy call" evened up with one or two for themselves.

The other points are valid. The culture of diving and feigning injury is complete scourge on the game, and it'll never change so long as the " head injury nazis" (i really don't want to call them that, but it's an apt description of those who demand caution after every contact) have their way.

That's all true, cant argue with that.

[tyrone08]

What is it with refs. They send someone rightly off then go out of their way to give them every decision after it. Some amount of calls going Galways way since the sending off

[Wildweasel74]

That's poor lying down by Sean Kelly there, nothing wrong with him.

[Wildweasel74]

N0. 12 down as if he shot, to waste time, Monaghan man booked for the face contact, Galway man holding you man bck from taking quick one, which lead to it, nothing!

[armaghniac]

Connacht teams lead Div 1, the West's awake.

[Cunny Funt]

Connacht teams lead Div 1, the West's awake.

Apart from Mayo into the final its hard to say who will join them in that final and which two will be relegated. The most competitive Division 1 campaign i can remember.

Yes, same as that.  Thought it was some rule I wasn't aware of.  As for the drag down, Tyrone were on the end of sone very dubious refereeing decisions last year yet these ones look fairly black and white

[illdecide]

Armagh 1-15 Donegal 1-13
Galway 1-16 Monaghan 2-11
Tyrone 2-14 Kerry 2-13
Roscommon 0-15 Mayo 2-13

Got the results correct just not the right scores...C- must do better
