Quote from: Walter Cronc on Today at 07:50:32 AMSome nonsense being talked by the usual suspects. I'm with Keyser on this one. We battled well considering the circumstances. We'll be fine come preliminary quarters onwards.I agree.

Another gripe, we're paying for subscription, why are there ads in there too??
If gaago is doomed to failure as you think, who shows the games they are currently showing? There's 3 games on gaago this evening, there's no way rte commits to that sort of coverage.
Exactly. The games just wouldn't be shown. RTÉ is a national broadcaster not a sports offering and can't just show back to back games or games on several channels at once when it only really has two.
I do think it may potentially fail as it isn't actually that expensive and I do wonder how much they get and how much they make.
Quote from: Tubberman on May 18, 2024, 06:26:16 PMSky is a tv channel offering multiple sports on a high quality viewing platform. Gaago is a dedicated platform for watching a limited number of events on a technically limited basis.Quote from: onefineday on May 18, 2024, 06:15:17 PMI'm really not impressed with the technical aspects of gaago - the whole streaming malarkey is yet another reason why this is an ill conceived idea doomed to failure.

Sure you pay for Sky as well (or you're meant to) and they have ads as well.
I have no issue with ads if its used to reduce subscription costs
Quote from: Manning18 on May 18, 2024, 10:33:04 PMOn the stamp, absolutely disgraceful and can't be condoned, but just curious if that was comer's injury that has limited him most of the year until now? In other words, was it a targeting of a known injury like the incident with Sean Kelly v Mayo last year?Quote from: screenexile on May 18, 2024, 08:15:51 PMQuote from: sam03/05 on May 18, 2024, 08:03:08 PMThought Hartes comments after the game were a disgrace. Said he didn't see mckinless incident , but then proceeded to accuse Comer of making a meal of it and theatrics.
It was as blatant a red card as seen at a game & it more or less ended Comers involvement in the game. McKinless deserves a lengthy ban for it
Comer 100% made a meal of the initial free obviously not of the stamp.
I didn't see the stamp at first and I'm sure Harte hadn't seen footage by the time he was interviewed either!
Are you serious? It took him out of the game. He hobbled around for 10 mins, took a painkilling injection at half time and went off because he couldn't move soon after. It might've derailed his season
Scandalous comments from Harte really
Too many people are taking the red card as if it's an isolated result. "changed the game", or "Derry performed well with 14"
It took Galway's best player out of the game. If you offered Joyce the option of keeping Comer fit and in the game and leaving Derry with 15 players I'm fairly sure he'd have taken it
Quote from: marty34 on May 18, 2024, 11:04:05 PMSilly, but not unexpected behaviour from Mc Kinless. Let his team mates down badly. Derry needed to start the game well and stay in the game but in reality, the game was over with the deserved red card.
Previous to that, Derry's shooting was brutal. How many did they kick into the keeper's hands? It's shocking at that level. Do they not do shooting at training? - doesn't look like it from today's show.
No Derry goals today and never really created any good chances. Derry scored goals for fun during league. That threat seems, for whatever reason, to be gone currently.
Since the league final, Derry's momentum has tailed away significantly. After the long break, I'd expect them to be bursting the doors down to rectify the Donegal performance but I'd be really disappointed. They looked very average and disjointed.
Obviously a few players were injured but lack of championship experience on the bench was telling. The panel must be very light.
Why were so many let go and why were U20's brought in?
