Scheffler arrested outside the course this morning - that's one way to stop him from winning

Cuffing people for driving on an extra 20 meters

He's lucky he didnt have a broken tail light, that allows the cops to stick the knee in the neck

These are generally fouls when its against your own team and when it is your team is doing it, its not a foul.

There in finishes the lessons

[first]

Gianni - Google GAA Official Guide 2024 part 2. Download the pdf. Football rules from page 60 to 122.

The problem is that the manual does not help solve all my situations that I have written. I have already read it but it didn't help me.

Bare in mind as we've seen on here, the referee's handbook within the GAA Learning Portal has more important detail on some rules #minefield

Is there a referee manual? Maybe a casebook but where could I find it?

Other question:
The ball may be knocked from an opponent's
hand(s) by flicking it with the open hand
But when the ball is released or is bouncing or soccer juggling, i.e. I mean when the ball is not in contact with the hand, can it be stolen by touching it or grabbing it with both hands?

You can't wrestle the ball away from an opponent if he has it in his possession (both hands) if the ball is open/unprotected then it can be tackled/flicked punched away or taken cleanly

So if a player holds the ball with two hands or even with one hand and his chest, can the ball only be stolen with an open hand? I notice a real difficulty in stealing the ball in this game, because being able to hold the ball in your hands makes it almost impossible to steal the ball, because in football there is more precarious control, whereas in rugby the control is absolute but there is tackle.

What do you think of my other doubts?

Please could anyone explain me what do Showing the Ball and Turning Twice with the ball mean?

Holds with two hands and if wrestled from the hands its a free for the person in possession of the ball. If the ball is 'popped' from his possession if he was holding it with one hand or two, with an open hand that's ok, the term stripping or wrestling it from possession is what we are looking at, that's a foul.

Gave a free the other day, lad won the ball but made contact with the player first around the neck. Had I been standing on the other side of that tackle I would not have called the free as from the other angle it would have looked like a clean take of the ball. But because of my positioning I was lucky enough to see that

This board would have half the comments or less if there wasn't a 'discussion' on things that people were not there lol

With Klopp gone I'd say that Arsenal will be City's biggest rivals for the next few seasons, hopefully they get the one at least with this generation of players

What's the draw for Ulster club this year?

Just the three  

You's boys are touchy feckers all the same

I think Liverpool had a fantastic year and will miss big Klopp's drive

Utd can't keep 'clearing' out players every year and expect consistency

They are the media's plaything at the minute after having years of dominance they are languishing below levels they would have been at before, its as if they have forgotten Utd were relegated in the 70's, but of course football only started in the PL years 92

No quick fix, could be another 10 years at this rate, I'd be happy to have the roof fixed first

Far from impressive ,got a few scores near end when cargin had emptied bench and had loads of youngsters on some even playing first senior games ,Ballymena been built up to be something they aren't imo very very average with a dinosaur in charge

Think you are missing the point of why some people have been impressed with Ballymena

They haven't been in Div1 for god knows how long, they aint established either and only got into Div 1 by means of the leagues changing, for a team to be competitive with other teams and win other games in a league that they have no recent experience of, is the reason why there has been a bitta chatter about them.

Playing Cargin would be a huge step up considering the panel they have and with the main players of Ballymena on the county team, it seriously deflates their ability against the bigger squad teams

 

Spurs had a great season and they're only 6 pts, 2 wins better than a bad United side. If United by some miracle  win the Cup, Ten Hag has had a better season than the Farewell Flopp. The main issue with that team is being constantly over run in the middle. 1 correct purchase could be worth an extra 10 points next season, but it's not too often utd get it right in the transfer market this last 10 years or so.

Couple of pool fans caught

Sorry, one, the other is a neutral 

Ah that old chestnut, someone says something dumb, ah they was only fishing..
Are you snoopdog btw 😉

Ah that old chestnut of getting caught and using that old chestnut

Are you Laois lad or Turf

Much prefer Paddy Power's latest one with the holidays, good effort though

Rory won't make the cut, there will be some media attention on him and as the alcohol is consumed on course the patrons will be, lets say looking a rise from Irelands best

Feck me Utd fans are easily pleased. One win tonight and everything seems OK and ETH has to stay next season. Every other team will hope he stays! They have been absolutely terrible.
Just have to hope they don't get hammered by City in the final.

Jesus if they are terrible, how bad are Newcastle?

They slap AI on everything now as a marketing gimmick. From TVs, fridges, washing machines etc. None of that contains true AI. Very little actually does.

We have it on our products too, can be off putting for some
