Armagh v Tipperary 15/7/17??

[T Fearon]

Best performance in Mc Geeney's reign.Am sure he would relish a crack at Kildare

[Gael85]

Best team won
Not sure why Tipp crowd are annoyed
One point from play in second half

In the last 10 minutes when Tipp ran at armagh there was only 3 things happened, and none in Tipp's favour:

1. Cynical direct fouls were met with yellow instead of black.
2. Cynical off the ball fouls were ignored.
3. When no foul was made, the ref invented one in case an overlap formed.

Fair play to armagh for creating the lead. But the referee is the reason they protected it.

He's a poor referee. Why do Croke Park reward him with more games? He seems to be on televised games every week.

[GalwayBayBoy]

Ref completely lost the plot with the advantage rule. Let them play on when he should have awarded the free and vice versa. Think he had confused himself by the end.

Wobbler concern yourself with tomorrow
We defended a lead
Just like down did with mc Kiernan in newry
We weren't cynical in the league and look what happened

[StGallsGAA]

Diabolical refereeing. Should have been 3-4 black cards in last 10 mins alone.

[The Trap]

If that is the best I would hate to see the worst.....thought armagh struggled to put away a poor, tired tipp team with their best player on one leg.....

Who should have got a black card?

Co-commentator actually said there was a pull on the jersey and couldn't understand why it wasn't a black card. Is it that hard to read a couple of lines?

Pulling a jersey isn't a black card offence.

Honestly I say absolutely fair play to Armagh for doing it.

My point remains that they only can do it because the ref doesn't really understand what football is about. Systematic, cynical fouling should be met with appropriate punishment.

[Captain Obvious]

A small measure of revenge for that sickner of a league defeat. Armagh dominated that 2nd and really should have won by more. It's looking like Kildare next maybe in Croke park?

[balladmaker]

Fair play Armagh, best team won and should have had a few more to spare.

Great to see the players reaction at the end, more to come from this Armagh team with Q/Finals just one game away.

It's been a few years now since the black card have been introduced! a pull down is a black card! pulling the jersey is not! whether its cynical play are not does not matter! only decisions the ref got wrong were regarding the advantage rule! and that was for both teams! best team won!

Delighted with that win. Played some good football and done what was needed to get over the line

Not really surprising that as soon as McKeever pulled the jersey the crap commentating team immediately shouted black card.

[tonto1888]

The ref cost us a goal with the advantage not being applied properly. We don't know what would have happened with the Tipp one
