NFL Division 1 2024

Makes no difference, if its penalties or 45's or a one one one match up they'll all end up as a difficult loss.

The games have to be finished on the day/night no point dragging people half way round the country for replays anymore, the cost of that alone and within the football/hurling calendar it near impossible to find a space come championship.

Even at club level come championship in counties that have dual players it's a massive drain on players fitness and injuries

GAA has been using penalties in the game for as long as I can remember, its not like they have copied anyone in that regard, its now being used to finish the game, seen a game where it was either 45's or frees from the 21 when this all came about, they would have been there all night, in fact the game was cancelled by the chairman and replayed to much fanfare at the time.

Kicking a 45 only becomes a skill if you've got the kicking length to achieve the outcome. Up to that, it's not a skill. Just one of those things most of us cannot do.

Change the calendar to allow one replay ffs. If it means teams playing 3 weeks in a row so be it. If its still level after extra time in a replay then ok penalties are fair enough or else next score wins.

Draw up a calendar that fits everything in and let's have a look at it.. it's bad enough clubs are without their players during the league but you're willing that they are flogged to death over multiple replays (possibly) to eventually go to penalties?

Which match or weekend in the next few months would you like to change to allow this one replay?

Wouldn't matter what was done, boys would find something to gripe about.

It's what we do! It's a dear aul year going to the games, I'm not complaining, definitely not, but hauling a car load back to Dublin for a replay... Kerching. Something has to give.

Would you feel the same but for your own county's record in shootouts?

Season too compressed - the league is fine to decide on penalties tbh. Although some here may have complained if the opposite outcome

To be I can can remember standing on the Hill in 2022 at full time saying neither team deserved to lose that game on penalties whichever way it went.

Season should be pushed back a bit anyway, club championships didn't start in Armagh til well into August last year and I assume most counties the same.

Draw up a calendar and show me how it fits in? This logic of push it back and assuming?? There are people that have looked at this as their job with regards to fixing dates to suit every aspect of our sports, not just Armagh's abysmal effort at not wining games in normal time/extra time and ability in penalty shootouts

They killed the golden goose with too many games in too short a time. Rem 2005 Tyrone replay against Down in the Marshes great game especially if you were a Down supporter! 2003 brilliant Ulster final went to a replay, Dublin-Meath epic 4 games in '91. Penalties are an aberration on Gaelic games, apeing soccer. People went to the replays.

You know we have penalties in GAA?

[Taylor]

I dont get people saying GAA is copying soccer.
You would think we are bringing something completely foreign in to finish a game.

Penalties is a skill of the game so why not use this skill to decide a winner?

Other alternative would be shooting from say 30 yards out but again that is down to carrying out a skill of the game.

I'm talking bout penalty shoot-outs, but you know that.

Aye I don't like them in soccer either! Also used to have replays...

[screenexile]

The 45s thing is balls... everyone can hit a penalty but who wants to watch 7 lads miss 45 with varying degrees of terrible kicks?

I don't care much for penatlies but there is no other option. When you talk about "add another week" then you have to do that for the NFL, all 4 provinces and the All Ireland final so that's potentially an extra 6 weeks!
