Quote from: DaleCooper on July 03, 2025, 04:37:47 PMCan anyone cite an example of a large project in Ireland thats been a resounding success?

The Wild Atlantic Way
TG4
Appointing Jack Charlton
Knock airport
Funding  Dublin GAA (well, depending on how you   look at it)

Talk of a  Thurles final. It's like  we're living in 1984

No, not that  one.

Any chance there will  be a rematch?

Unlike the Dubliners  themselves, the Dubliners  top 3 thread burned brightly for a short time.......

Quote from: Captain Obvious on July 06, 2025, 01:30:52 PMKerr Signed with West Ham on July 1st "I know he'll be watching on and cheering us on as best he can but unfortunately for us he's not here today." Tyrone's Ciaran Gourley tell TG4.

Could Kerr  not have played anyway, like  Kevin Moran used to do? I doubt  anyone from West Ham can pick up  TG4. Or use Twitter.

Don't be a twat ffs.

It's true though . That's what he did  ;)

Niblock was hard  to listen to today. Too hysterical . Like a man who had too many  red bulls in him

Marty on RTE was  more  calmer . Was like watching a  totally different match.

Being at your peak  in 3/4 years,  and successful minors  to come through means nothing. Or guarantees nothing. It's been 16 years since Meath   reached  a semi final . It could be another   16 years until you see it  again . You just never know

Meath have a  great chance of an All Ireland  this year. Go and grab  it.

Quote from: Milltown Row2 on July 05, 2025, 10:02:17 AMI wouldn't watch them playing in my backyard.. two faces you wouldn't tire from slapping

I wouldnt mind seeing them  but it's the  many dicks in the crowd I'd  end up slapping. One big  tiktok/selfie-fest. The music is secondary. It's  all about being seen to have been there.

You wouldn't have  seen that  in my day , back in 19-dickety-two .

Quote from: tiempo on July 03, 2025, 03:04:31 PMBig Finbar had it right the whole time with the rugby boots and a toe-hoke as high and far as humanly possible

Aye, the Big Jack way.  People scoffed at him but he was  right

With the new rules, when you're playing the ball  to the corner back , and trying to work it out , your  passing and handling  from everyone has to be spot  on. One fumble, and the ball could be in your  net

These new kick out rules  are here to stay , and kick outs are now 50/50. So is it not better, just  to hoof it as far as you can?  Put it into the opposing half and  scrap like feck for it.  One fumble from  them/, and you're in on  their goal . I think that's what Armagh should have  done

Confirmed.

Sunday July 6th

Kerry v Tyrone, St Conleth's Park, 1.30pm, TG4



Why didn't they have a  double header with the seniors?  I'm sure both  sets of fans would have  watched both , guaranteeing a  really good crowd

Thinking back now , I don't know why Rafferty didn't drive it as far as he could down the  field. He's easily capable  of hitting beyond midfield. Spread the game ,  push Kerry back. Get them away from the Armagh goal/arc

Yes, Kerry might still have won  the same amount of ball as they did , but they woukd have been further  away from  goals to do damage.  And as someone said , a  breaking ball  falling luckily could mean Conaty/McMullan etc  on his way towards the Kerry goal

Those couple of balls  going over the sideline gave Kerry  huge energy

That's shocking news.
