Is the TG4 GAA Beo programme available anywhere? I can't find it on the TG4 player

If you'e going to hit someone with the shoulder you better be making sure you make contact with his shoulder and not his head otherwise you're going to get the line. He was unlucky in terms of being a fraction out with his timing but you can't afford to be a fraction out with a challenge like that, there's always the danger a player in possession will move his head which indeed happened.

Frank Burns must have committed 6, 7 or even 8 fouls yesterday, played like a man extremely frustrated with his role. Galway were brilliant going forward yesterday in the first half when it was 15 on 15 and kicked some brilliantly worked scores; Steede isn't going to be dominant in the air, he's not that type of player but he can kick scores from distance at a regularity which not many midfielders can match. Whether his all round game will be good enough I don't know but we'll soon find out.

It was interesting to see Sean Kelly given the job to man mark McShane, I thought he did reasonably well on him considering he's new to the role and and only learning; I'm sure he's getting plenty of practice in training on Walsh & Comer. Heaney still has work to do on his defending but like Kelly playing in the full back line is new to him. On a number of occassions yesterday Tyrone got too close to goal without doing too much which I'm sure will be worked on. I was impressed with McDaid yesterday apart from one error early in the 2nd half, the harder pitch in the summer will really suit him.

The kick outs need work but Galway in fairness won plenty of ball of Paton and Morgan's long kick outs in the last 2 weeks. It was a good bit of management taking Finnerty off, refs are always looking to even it up and he was one foul away from getting the line.

Walsh playing like this is worth the admission fee alone and good to see Comer getting sharper, he was excellent yesterday and Tyrone couldn't handle him either.

That outlook makes a mockery of the current rules in the game.

The GAA are basically sanctioning players to commit tackles that could cause dangerous injuries if mistimed by the slightest of margins.

Either the shoulder tackle has to be outlawed or you have to allow some leeway in situations like that.

You're really making too much of this. Tackling with your hand in Gaelic football is fine but if you miss time it and box someone in the face you'll be in trouble. No different to a sliding tackle in soccer either. Perfectly legal if done correctly but if you're a fraction late and break someone's leg it's a red card.

It ended up a dangerous challenge so there can't be any complaints with the card.

Rugby is evolving in relation to tackling also as the modern players are faster and stronger. As long as it's shoulder to shoulder it's a fair rule. Your correct though, coaches should discourage it unless players are certain. It's a good rule when both players are attempting to chase down the ball.

Any mistimed tackle can cause dangerous injury

Everyone loves the big shoulder hit, and it's great for a player when they connect with one fairly. But the rules on it are very clear. You go for that big shoulder hit, you 100% have to connect correctly. If you're even a milisecond mistimed, or if the forward is a fraction too quick for you (as Brannigan was yesterday), then you're in trouble. It's happened time and time again. Happened to his own teammate Niall Morgan against the dubs last year, happened to Richie Hogan in the Hurling final. You go for the big hit, you run the risk of getting it wrong. Or do as Oisin McConville said on league Sunday last night, leave the ego aside and go for a tackle that's much safer and more efficient.

The rules are not clear.

Richie Hogan was sent off for elbowing his opponent, not for a mistimed shoulder - it was premeditated and deliberate act.

Will you be happier if someone says the only reason Tyrone lost yesterday was because of that red card?
The lad went for the big shot, mistimed it and got the card he deserved, give it a f**king rest at this stage.

Christ on a bike. Has anyone ever got this animated about a red card in a league game in February.
Create a new thread if you want to keep waffling on about it.
