Predict Prelim Q/finals: Kildare/Monaghan, Cork/Ros, Donegal/Tyrone, Galway/Mayo

Remove half a dozen rules and the game will be referees better. Marks, fisted points black card etc.

On the Kildare forum and lots of moaning. Feck it. Monaghan suffered a few bad calls too and when you mess up so many attacks then look in the mirror first.

I don't understand the confusion on the Roscommon player fouling the ball. You are not allowed to throw the ball in football

RULE 4 - TECHNICAL FOULS
4.1 To overcarry or overhold the ball.
4.2 (a) To throw the ball.
(b) To handpass the ball without:
(i) It being Fisted
or
(ii) It being struck with an open hand with a
definite underhand striking action.

I've seen people on Twitter saying you throw the ball downwards to hop it. You don't. If you were allowed to throw it up for a bounce, what would stop you throwing it over a players head and running past him, like a quick lineout in rugby.

It was a definite throw. The controversy here is that the call was made in injury time of a knockout game. The irony is that everybody wants consistency in refereeing but most don't want the rules applied against their team in injury time.

is it really consistent when the ruleis roll out once every few years

Lost the game with basically the last attack of the match and it was game whereby Kildare had three big goal opportunities, two point blank saves from Beggan and one shot that crashed off the crossbar I think Kildare players and management will look back at that with much regret than what decisions the ref did or didn't do.
