Sam Maguire Group 2 - Galway, Armagh, Tyrone, Westmeath

[seafoid]

Wouldn't have liked either of those draws, shows the importance of winning the group

Yesterday was so random. Mayo were 6 points up and lost. Kerry could have been second.
Feely could have missed. Kildare could have been 3rd. Armagh won by 1. Walsh could have equalised.

Just read over a few pages there after watching the Sunday game. Think these Tyrone boys live in a different world. The referee got the penalty / card in their game 100 % by the rules. Maybe some should learn the rules instead of complaining about the referee.

As for the Armagh game. It was great craic with the Galway fans today. Everyone agreed it was a good game played in a good spirit. McKay was reckless at the end and lucky it didn't cost a draw. The free given to Murnin may have been on the soft side but there were plenty of soft frees to both teams during the game. I still find it amusing how Tyrone ones in particular complain that Armagh deliberately use rough house tactics. Maybe it is because I didn't hear any Galway ones complaining during the game.

As for the celebrations. It is always great to enjoy the big games. Maybe if Tyrone did the same so many fellas - players and supporters- wouldn't have deserted the team.

Sure Armagh lost about 30k in one week ffs.

Like not even close to the ball, that's pure filth, cheek to say it wasn't even a penalty

It's number 4 - Forker. They never learn. Not a likeable team under McGeeney.

I don't think anybody claimed that it wasn't a penalty but the foul was by Grugan. The ball was there to be played, he just mistimed the tackle but it could hardly be deemed a punch as some have suggested and there were no complaints from Kelly or Galway about it. Its mostly just fans of other counties (mostly Tyrone) that seem to have been triggered by that Armagh win yesterday.

There were 3 posters on here that said it wasn't a penalty if you care to look back, hopefully on reflection the Armagh will get a ban

It was a clear cut penalty in my view but the foul was committed by Grugan who got yellow carded for it. The incident posted with Forker looks worse slowed way down and he didn't play the ball but there was minimal force to it. If Kelly had thought he was deliberately punched as some have suggested then he wouldn't have just got up with no reaction.

I wonder how many reds and yellows Forker has gotten over the years.

He is that type of player.

He picked up a yellow yesterday as well.

He's unlucky here the way Sean Kelly's face deliberately batters his fist.

It'll probably be treated the same way as McGuigan's bite on O'Neill.........
