Tour starts on Saturday. Absolutely cannot wait for this one.

Everything suggests Pog should waltz his way to another one but JV took time out of him on the TT at the Dauphiné (although subsequently got destroyed) and his injury troubles are well and truly behind him.

If Pog utterly destroys the field this year, 6+ TDFs and 12+ Grand Tours are absolutely a possibility.

Sure that's nothing. Think it was stephenite who once rode Baby Spice. Considerably less of a spoofer than DJ.

John Power from John Lockes? More a 90s man, no?

Farmer if I recall correctly. DJ must have had his eye on him from a long way out.

Not sure they've ever played a bad set in their lives.

Quote from: maddog on June 30, 2025, 05:17:26 PMCongrats Kerry, all the talk of bad Kerry team etc was bought be exactly noone. Best team on the day progressed. O'Shea was 10/10

I don't know how many said Kerry were a bad team tbh. Most of the commentary was about how it was hard to judge them given they'd basically played nobody and they had a massive injury crisis, which is absolutely the case.

Thompson could absolutely get one. His 2 pointers have been huge for Donegal all year.

If Kerry win the AI Joe O'Connor will get one after yesterday.

Quote from: Fogarty on June 29, 2025, 10:43:05 PMDoes the seniors tour register with golf fans around the world?

Colin Montgomerie thinks he's a major champion because of it.

Roarty way out in front for YPOTY you'd imagine.

Quote from: Wildweasel74 on June 30, 2025, 12:16:10 AMHe doesn't have to kick it beyond  the arc, he kicked it to himself in the Dublin game a couple of times.

Apologies, you're correct on that front. The other points remain clear:

1) He didn't kick the ball before the hooter

2) The ball was moving when he kicked it

3) The ball was kicked from the wrong place

Quote from: Wildweasel74 on June 29, 2025, 11:10:02 PMIt's clear as day on the Sunday game, he tapped it to himself more than a few secs before the hooter.

What exactly do you think was clear as day?

Gleeson threw the ball out. Then the hooter sounded. As the ball was rolling he kicked it forward.

He most certainly did not "tap it to himself" seconds before the hooter sounded. Even if he'd kicked it before the hooter sounded, he kicked a moving ball from the incorrect location and it failed to make it beyond the 40m arc.

Quote from: bennydorano on June 29, 2025, 07:51:59 PMI know the Tyrone ones will be at the bolloxology for a fortnight now but really what have they got to fear? Kerry's full hand on display today, MOR is the man to put a plan in place and Tyrone have the forwards to beat anyone. Free shot. I'd say Tyrone & Donegal would both beat Kerry tbh.

They'll need Kilpatrick and Kennedy to really step up if they're going to put manners on O'Connor. He was unreal today.

From what I can see, other than 20 seconds of Get Your Brits Out where they went silent for the line about "Cricky" Stalford licking coke off a plate, the Beeb didn't censor it at all.
