Wide. It has to go between the posts. The line extends to infinity from beyond the top of each post. I know this because Larry Reilly took a shot that hit infinity.

Fixed that for you.

McManus might have kicked it to infinity, but Larry hand-passed it back.

No we don't. We know our place.

Time will prove that hawk eye is not 100% accurate. That ball was inside. Mayo denied a good point.

I miss the way lads used to give the umpires dogs abuse.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

What dreamland are you living in... it wasn't a point... also Tyrone wouldn't have beaten either of those teams at the weekend. Ye played both teams this year in games that mattered and got beat!

If the Keith Higgins shot was a few inches lower it would have hit the post.

If the posts were raised an extra 6 feet, there would have been no need for Hawkeye. There is alot of times where the ball is kicked higher than the current size of posts (it's more in hurling). Higher posts would sort out alot of of those dodgy calls.

Make the posts 20 feet higher and stick an umpire in a crows nest on top of each.

If you knock one off you get 2 points.

Correct.

Too much at stake in the tightness of some championship games, never mind too much money involved setting it up etc. for it to be a mess.

I think it was used ok in the Antrim V Kerry game in CP but then in the Kilkenny V Galway game, it wasn't.

Madness in a final.

Bit of a mess in Thurles the next day as well although I think there is a small screen in Thurles some fans could see but thankfully the referee seemed to be aware of the decision but didn't look good.
