Tyrone not lacking in physical aggression today but they have missed too many chances. Kerry a bit more efficient without being entirely convincing either.

It's bizarre to see the team with 4 All Irelands wear the four stars proudly on their jerseys while the team with 38 dont appear to have anything.

Wouldnt fit all them on the jersey lol

Tyrone must have at least twice as many wides as actual points however its a young team so not all bad.

Row suited Kerry. Turned the game. Two Clifford's should be off the field. But that doesn't suit the GAA and they're protected by refs.

How the feck did you come to that conclusion?! Show me the part where either  did anything to actually warrant a red card there?

Paudie third man in.  That's been a red for a long while. Tyrone often get penalised for it.

DC threw Con to the ground and jumped on him and then elbowed a Tyrone player. 

These are red card offences.

Just do it fair. That's all we're asking

When did Tyrone get penalised for this "often"?

4 times in one game would be often lol

Isnt contributing to a melee a red card offence ? It certainly was when tyrone played armagh. Clifford came in and put con on his ass staring the whole thing

Tyrone defending woefully and look very light up front. Be interesting to see if they can put in a second half like last week.

Ref very whistle happy but don't think he's favouring one side over the other both getting some handy ones.

Wouldnt say they are light up front. Had 5 wides in a row. Different day they would have went over. Happy they are creating chances.

Wides killing tyrone

Clifford started and kept that entire melee going and walks away scott free. One rule for the golden child. One rule for Tyorne.

he should have got a card but was two yellows for Kerry one for Tyrone so no need for the poor wee Tyrone narrative.kilpatrick was heavily involved didn't get card either.

There was more kerry ones starting it than tyrone.

Tyrone gonna Tyrone!

To be fair it was a mark don't know what the officials were at?

Nothing to do with Tyrone. Mark was given but changed to a slide line ball some how

Clifford unpunished again. Unreal

Jesus if any team done the amount of shoving that Kerry do there would be some amount card.

Mickey continuing his excellent record against Dublin,Kerry and Mayo

He's already beaten Kerry this season.

Was a tongue in cheek joke. Harte has a few wins in league games over those teams but zero wins against those teams in championship football in over 12 years

No more rule changes until we can properly enforce the rules we have. Can barley go 1 week without seeing 2 refs who have very different interpretation of the rules.

Players constantly blew for touching ball on the ground when the rules actually allow you to.

Certain refs enforcing third man in when it suits and ignoring it other times etc etc

Touching the ball on the ground if knocked to the ground while in possession.. standard rule and strange why anyone doesn't know it

You can't though just randomly touch on the ground or strike it without being initially in possession

Majority of time the player who has the ball gets knocked to the ground he envibilty touches it on the groubd he gets blown for it. Never seen this rule implemented

You didn't in your first post. You said players getting constantly blown for touching the ball on the ground when the rules actually allow you.. That's not the case nor is it even close to the majority of times that the ball is actually touched on the ground in the game.

This is the annoying thing when gobshites behind the fence haven't a "scobby doo" about the rules but give off regardless

When would a player be on the ground touching the ball without having first been in possesion of it??

Jesus use a bit of common sense. Anytime a player touches the ball on the ground its because he was originally in possession and forced to the ground.

How many times in a game do you see a player tackled, falls to ground and touches the ball. He immediately gets blown and a free given against him even though he is actually allowed to play the ball on the ground as he was originally in possession.

Its not at all correct you keep saying touches, he's not playing the ball, he touches the ball its a foul.. if he's in  possession and falls to the ground he can play it.. In most cases he's touched it incidentally and that's a foul

How would you play the ball without touching it?

Going around in circles here..

You can't touch the ball on the ground, If you are tackled with ball in hand you can play the ball by striking it along the ground while the ball is on the ground.

Definition for not playing the ball for me (with the whistle) is an incidental touch and not striking it away after having it in possession initially..

This is more common, as the player that falls to the ground is surrounded and he makes a failed attempt trying to lift the ball touches the ball (not trying to play/strike/add in whatever word that suits the attempt)

I have many times said "play on" when a player has done that which is usually followed by "he's touched the ball on the deck ref!"

There's a clear difference, I can't help you if you struggle with that

My original point was there shouldnt be any changes to the rules until we enforce the ones we have.

Touching the ball on the ground was one example. Could easily talk about the 4 steps which are never enforced or the 3rd man into a meele who is usually never sent off (unless its tyrone) or the player closed fist punching a player during a "tackle" which is never punished.
