U20 All Ireland series

[Go home ref]

That first half performance was the best I've ever seen from any  kildare team in croke park. The tears were streaming down my face when the lads went up to lift the trophy and now as I rest my sore head we can look forward to the future with real hope.

Watching the pre match chat back, the Mayo manager Sloan when asked did he have a plan for the Kildare full forward line stated he was only worried about his own team's performance. Kildare's full forward line scored 1-14 all but 3 from play. Doesn't reflect well.

Is he a brother of Barry Solan who was with Jason Ryan here?

One for the Mayo lads.

Yes Barry and Mike are brothers , from Ballagh.

[Syferus]

Fingers crossed Solan gets the senior Mayo job when Rochford is eventually jettisoned.

First half was a great game of football. Neither team played with a sweeper and it was real man on man, forward v defender. Some lovely scores by both teams.

Never seen anything like the red card before. He actually pushed the ref twice!!! It was only the second one that was caught by the tv cameras.

At the very a least 6 month suspension. The amount of people defending him/ claiming it's one of those things is incredible. He's not the first player in a minor or U21 game to be sent off in croke park and he won't be the last. You can't react like that and the GAA need to hand out appropriate punishment.

No one's defending him but he doesn't need to be called out here or on social media. He will get a deserved lengthy ban.

Good man

Out of order Larry.

Agree - he's what ? 19? He f**ked up big time but its not a hanging offence. Hopefully he gets an appropriate punishment, learns his lesson and then dusts himself down and plays again. He was wrong but it wasn't GBH either.

[kerryforsam2018]

It a pity didn't get to see David Clifford and Seanie O'Shea play with kerry in this competition.

[Rossfan]

That was Kerry's choice.
Kildare made a different choice.
Anyway better for Ireland and the GAA to see Kildare winning an AI than feckin Kerry

In the rule book it states that minor interference includes pushing or shoving which is only a 12 week ban, possibly 24 week with two pushes. If there was a strike he will be in a lot more trouble. The level of his rage is still hard to get my head around.

Yes! Totally out of order!
