Great coverage I have to say.

Haven't been this interested in the football championship in quite a few years.

I wonder is there a bit of niggle in it. In the 2 short clips they've put up, there has been "afters".

Every video that's been put up Gerard McAleese has been involved in the afters.

Christ check this one out from Cunningham. To be doing this at 10pm at night in those conditions...

Hard to tell from the footage but looks to be outside of the boot too?

Free kicks now. Some battle.

4-4 after 5. Sudden death. One of the Casement's scores could have done with Hawkeye.

6-6 now

Replay.

Making it up as they go along?

paddyjohn · September 26, 2019, 10:35:31 PM

Another replay!

FFS What a joke at half 10 at night. Looked like it was going to go on all night. Either kick pens or play a replay.

can they just decide to do that? Would have been a better rule to make the kicks progressively harder

Nearly 6000 viewers at the finish there.

Were the frees taken from the 45 metre line? I thought I heard Sean saying on his live feed that the frees were being taken from 33 metres.Could be wrong though.If that was the case the teams would have been there all night so a replay would seem to be a correct decision.

One of PG1's looked wide to me.

Albeit I was watching on my phone on a ropey enough live feed.

Great stuff, Sean Kelly though.

Have watched it a few times and am still not convinced.

I thought it looked wide left (looking at the posts)

Were you at it?

On camera, from right behind him looked like over the top of the right hand post at best.

Looks and sounds like neither team deserved to lose and, rules be damned, these are amateur players in terrible conditions at 10.30pm at night. Feels like common sense to me.
