Jabers, there are more leaving the British cabinet than the Tyrone team.
Both melees against Donegal and Galway were particularly brainless and ultimately suited the opposition.
I think the Armagh setup need to reflect on this. The object should be to win games, standing up for yourself in the melee should not be an objective if it interferes with winning. Some things that go on, e.g. pointless fouls giving away points, slabbering about frees and getting them moved up and wild challenges that end up with people getting sent off, are not helping winning games.
Armagh drew with Galway, one more point would have done the job and discipline is part of the solution to getting that point.
Bar has now been set for these melee's, lets see consistency.
Personally not a fan of "WOTD" for the first game in a knockout fixture, though I understand why the GAA have this in place for the current, more condensed intercounty championship calendar for this year at least. Personally I'd have gone for a replay AET for this coming Thursday or Friday evening in Salthill (namely that as provincial champions, Galway should have home advantage in this case) with the replay itself having to be decided on the night.In theory that makes sense, and the first few times it'd be gratefully accepted, but within a few years the reason for it would be forgotten and we'd have the moans from managers about recovery times and the winners needing more time to recover etc etc.
Maybe a good starting point would be to remove this ridiculous rule that extra time is a 'new game' and have all cards issued during games continue into extra time, then we mightn't have the issue arise, or probably wouldn't in this instance!
Ffs. That’s a disgraceful decision.
Armagh corner bck lucky not to see the line there after that stupidity, total blindside, even though it was only a shoulder.
I saw someone on the Orchard Fans forum complaining already about the price of hotels the night of the All Ireland final, ye will be spending a lot of money in Dublin over the next month.Anyone seen the price of hotels in Dublin for this Saturday night? Jaysus. Planning to go to the minor game on Saturday as well but looks like will have to drive up and down both Saturday and Sunday now. Accommodation very expensive.
Its a farce.
Next time them hospitality reps come on the tv complaining about this and that, they can go to f#$k.
Complete rip off.
500 quid for a standard hotel room, breakfast extra ... WTF .. someone must be paying it that they can get away with it. To whoever is paying it, catch a grip!
I have no idea how people are paying it. Belfast is the same. 250 quid for a single room on a fri night with no breakfast. Place is packed so there must be plenty of people about with a lot of spare cash.
Belfast has turned into a mini Dublin since Covid began in terms of prices for hotel rooms, food and drinks.
