Division 2 2024

Kildare the better team, forwards throwing game away with some poor attempts at goal. Unlucky with goal attempt hitting post. Kildare have to work hard to get frees, Dublin on the other hand. Fenton & Small dropped on their asses with one fair, one unfair shoulder.
Dublin probably saving themselves for bigger days.

Dublin 1-11 Kildare 0-13 the result.

Small hit, I though was shoulder to shoulder and side to side, at the time, though was a good hard hit, it may have been high but still didn't look a free on the replay.

If he played the ball and shoulder comes in, and a fair one it was, is it a free?

Horrible comment. Absolutely no place in our game or culture for this.

Since when....?

Well, good manners , common decency , good upbringing......
Since all of that were part of how we interact with each other. Comments about his looks or appearance are totally irrelevant and should have no place on here.
If you think it's ok, that's fair enough, work away. I just don't agree with it.

Derry were good to a point, defensively great, missed 6-8pts that they couldn't do against Kildare or Dublin. Played most of the game in 2nd gear. Limerick missed 5+ easy scoring chances themselves. Found Derry very hard to break down.

Yeah Derry never really got going, pedestrian pace all the way through and were still in complete control.
Limerick were very poor.
Derry could have won by twice as much.
Good to get early points, but looking at Kildare and Dublin yesterday, promotion will be difficult.

[Silver hill]

Very impressed with Kildare. Thought the ref was very sore on them on a number of occasions with clear, scorable frees not being given. Agree that Derry might struggle to make that top two position.

[Captain Scarlet]

On on the one we could have got a result...but it was a proper game to the death v Dublin in Croke Park so a massive improvement.
Feely getting on is a huge boost.

Meath are about to bate Cork. Very interesting.

[Wildweasel74]

3rd Meath goal should been disallowed, Lad took nearly 10 steps if not more.

[Captain Obvious]

3rd Meath goal should been disallowed, Lad took nearly 10 steps if not more.

Steps are regularly missed not sure what can be done there. O'Rourke  seems to have Meath in decent shape. Cork got relegated from Division 1 in 2016 and don't look any closer to returning.

3rd Meath goal should been disallowed, Lad took nearly 10 steps if not more.

That's one for the CCCC, should they forfeit fine or replay the game?  I'm only joking! Too many steps becoming more and more an issue, I'm generally lenient depending on scenario tbf, the piss take extra turn before hopping or toe tap I'll blow.

I'm noticing the elongated hop in the game now, not sure how to describe that but they look as if they are going to bounce the ball but it takes 'ages' but the motion is there? Does that make sense?

Sure if the ref didn't see it then it didn't happen. Perfectly legit goal. 

Great start to the league. Looked like the same oul s***e in the first half but they really came out in the second. Shane Walsh finally showing his capabilities in the county jersey. Midfield coped well despite not having midfielders. The young defense was hard working throughout and even though we got cut open a few times they stuck to it and were really solid in the second half.

Very pleasantly surprised by the performance. Cork were a bit one dimensional going forward and were over reliant on Sherlock for scores.
