Messy. Both teams should be fucked out of the competition and a few heavy suspensions handed out.

Agree that stern action has to be taken against both teams.
I had thought there was a rule about posting videos of underage games (or even recording them)

I always thought there was a rule brought in a few years ago about third man into a scuffle got a straight red?

Was this a rule or did I just imagine it?

Is it s disgrace or is it something that happens almost weekly and has for years. Camera phones and peoples need for attention via social media is a curse.

Always happened, like everything but just more phones about.

There was plenty of talk about it but don't know if anything offical came in.

It did come in and was the rule. Just probably not frequently implemented.

Conor McKenna got a straight red for being 3rd man in against Fermanagh in the 2022 Ulster Championship.

I'm not sure the GAA could take disciplinary action against individuals recording individual segments of matches such as scores or brawls even if there is a rule against it. People will post these videos as others will comment on them as can be seen from the reaction on this message board. In the incident recorded at least the adults and mentors entering the field of play appear to be making a genuine attempt to break up the fighting and restore order rather than getting involved. Unsavoury, lots of pushing and shoving, but would there be any more than 4 players who could be said to have struck someone.
Conor McKenna was sent off as third man in against Fermanagh so rule is or was on place. As Sky Sports say - The Eglish clubman was the third man into a melee, and referee Joe McQuillan gave him his marching orders
Hard for any referee to take proper action in these cases as so much going on maybe went for the standard red card for each team (or maybe even yellow)

Said it before the best thing a ref can do is wave play on, you'll look like some clown if you're running around throwing digs while your man is putting the ball in the net. (Obviously doesn't work at half/full time before someone says it.

I think there is a provision for disciplining members in the code of conduct under the "bringing the GAA into disrepute" but I think practically it would be extremely difficult.

"To contribute to a melee" is a Category 3 infraction (a red card offence)
This is what is usually used by refs if they want to give a red card to the third man in.
There is no reference to it being specifically "the third man in" anywhere in the rule book.
However like so many GAA rules this is so badly written as being close to meaningless.
Nowhere in the rule book is either a melee defined or how much you need to contribute to it, to be committing an offence.

Speaking of Ice Hockey, I always thought it'd be a good idea to let 2 lads go at it (like ice hockey) and have ref/lineman split it and deal with it when it went to ground. Would cut out the messier type brawls where men can get hit on the ground etc.

Maybe no one will agree with me, but I don't think it would be a bad way to go.
