Quote from: marty34 on October 28, 2024, 12:47:08 PMI wonder will they think about taking the wee D out now?

Isn't it just there to keep players away from penalty taker?

Maybe just a mark on either side where it currently meets the line and players must stay on either side of it.

They need it for hurling?

The D helps for penalty's in hurling, but a player in hurling can stand on the 21 for puck out because the distance is same for when the kick out is taken when player outside the D in football.

Love going to hurling fields without the 45 line drawn out ;D
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

They obviously don't play camogie there either then.


Two D's would be stupid, just remove the smaller one and that'll keep everyone miles away when a penalty is being taken.
