It was a split second stupid hit... Murphy wasn't even injured. I've met him a few times... sound lad as most of them are.
Teachers are often short tempered people so it is no surprise to me. My old PE teacher was a short tempered man who was also a former footballer. I recall him getting sent off on TV too.
The 5 stages of a social media cycle involving a GAA player and an unsavoury incident.
1. Some people are genuinely disgusted and need to tell the world.
2. The WUMs sense blood and pile on.
3. The player indicates he's struggling mentally with why may he reading online.
4. Supporters circle the wagons and chase down any and every detractor whilst waving the mental health flag.
5. All goes away.
Players should just attempt to get to act three asap, it goes away quickly after that.
