Have a few friends abroad who can't find anywhere to watch.

Apologies for the spam.

Yes, yes I know it's a bit early for a St. Paddy's Day thread and this may be old news to some but I just heard myself that this year the feast day will take place on March 15 to avoid it coinciding with Holy Week. Just thought I'd make a thread in case any of the rest of ye missed this.

You can see the trio towards the end. Look at them goading the Kerry man as he lies down injured.

Warning - also contains dangerous amounts of Ryan Tubridy.

Found this on RTE, some great pics' of the transition from old to new.

The way the GAA implements its suspensions has always puzzled me, here is a very recent example

"Connacht club champions St. Brigid's breathed a massive sigh of relief on Thursday night, December 7 when star forward Frankie Dolan was only banned for two months, meaning that he will be eligible to play in February's All-Ireland semi-final."
-Taken from the hoganstand.

Now nothing against Dolan (who the article says "accepted his culpability in the incident") but he will now be suspended for two months and not miss one match (competitive anyway). I just don't see the justice in it.

Anyone else agree?
