Great stuff I was getting worried about where I'd be getting my next football fix!
All Ireland finished last week and played the last club game on saturday evening, thank god for TG4 and the club championships!

Bloody typical, on the same time as our championship down here, >:(
Cross and who?
Crossmaglen Vs Pearse Og
Ladbrokes prices
Cross 1/10
Og's 5/1
Same as that BC1, the bright sparks that are the London County Board dont give you a championship fixture for two months and then they schedule the weekend for the big game at home
Hopefully some of the irish bars have tng4 so that i can toast a Pearse Og victory over the might Crosss

BC1 do you still play now or when you left Cross did you retire??
Still playing in Cork. Available for selection would be a better way of puting it. I am playing senior down here but the legs are getting slower by the day so the younger lads are beating me to it. I am there for experience as much as anything else.
We have 1/4 Finals this weekend and we are out against Donnacha O'Connors team. They would be slight favourites as we have a very young side, but on the day anything might happen.

aye i know how you feel, i prob played my last game for Clans yesterday. 34 now and 15stone so i'm up against it, got a bad knee injury at the start of the year and it's still giving bother so i'll see how it goes over the winter. Although to be honest some of the youg fells coming through are useless and as lazy as f**k.
Good luck in the championship ;)
For those who are interested, Louth SFC final is being shown tonight at 8.30
Pats V Cooley - by far the biggest local rivalry in the county, wasn't a bad game either
What channel?
TG4 - Didn't realise till I got home that its not on until 9.45 - They have the foreign game on at the moment
Is it the whole game or just highlights? Is it worth watching?
It would only be highlights, I would think it is worth a watch alright, depends how much of the hitting they show ;D
Why are they not showing the Mayo County final instead, would have thought it'd be a tighter game for the neutral to enjoy
any signs of them showing the Cork SFC (semi final ?) featuring Na Piarsigh - who have Setanta and aisake O'Hailpin back from Oz and are trainign with their club right now...that would be very interesting...imo

The Armagh final is on on sunday. Crossmaglen Rangers an Pearse Ogs
Quote from: drici on October 01, 2007, 12:05:27 AM
followed by the whole of the Sligo Senior Football Championship Final which after this weekend's results appears to be: Tourlestrane v Eastern Harps.
You're not wrong there. Nice to see our final finally gets shown, although it meant that that Sligo's Top Referee (allegedly) had to ensure that it came to pass.
Seen that yesterday that they are showing the Down County Final.. I wonder how the Longstone Boys are feeling now that Clonduff are inthe final :o
Do they still have Mayobridge playing Clonduff?

Apparently the Sligo SFC final is now been shown live, from what i've heard. It's all very confusing.

Find TG4 arrangements for weekend coverage outlined below. Note change to schedule. Unfortunately sometimes, especially at this time of year, matches can be changed at a late stage due to postponements, draws, late starts, etc. We are trying to update the information over the next couple of days.
TG4 will televise the Sligo Senior Football Final between Tourlestrane and Eastern Harps LIVE next Sunday afternoon, match coverage beginning on GAA Beo at 3 pm.
It had initially been decided to televise deferred coverage of the county final at 5:30 pm on Sunday, immediately following live coverage of the Down Senior Football Final. The revised schedule came about due to the delay in throw in of the Down County Final, which has been moved back to 4 pm. Full deferred coverage of that final, between Longstone and Mayobridge, will now take place on TG4 at 5:00 pm.
This is the first time that the Sligo Senior Final will have been televised live and is a reflection of the heightened interest in the match on a national level.
Presented by Micheál Ó Domhnaill, commentary and analysis will be provided by Brian Tyers and former Donegal footballer Finín Mac a Bhaird.
GAA Beo, you lads are doing a great job. We moan and complain, with justification, about the quality of RTE's coverage and the shortage of BBC's and UTV's, so it's only fair to acknowledge quality when we see it.
TG4 also proves that you don't need hype, contrived controversy, smart-arse pundits or fancy, flashy production gimmicks (or, in RTE's case, gimmicks that were fancy and flashy fifteen years ago). What GAA followers want to watch is GAA games. The rest is peripheral.
Thanks for those comments. We do take note of what people contribute from time to time on gaaboard.com, and it gives us a barometer of what issues are of interest to you. We also take on board comments regarding the programmes themselves. Regarding future matches, we have pencilled in the Kerry County Final live on Sun 14th, followed by deferred coverage of a county final TBC, Tipp hurling final live on Sun 21, followed by Monaghan football final, and then most likely we're into Club Championship territory between then and Christmas. There are outstanding issues in all of the abovementioned counties, so these fixtures may change, in the event of draws and replays.

The Galway county football final has been pushed back to the 28th I hear. I presume TG4 will be covering it only for the fact that they always cover the Galway county final. ;D
Then again if NUIG make it through it may not be as interesting a final as Killererin v Milltown.

Well said hardy and hopefully the gaa will think about the input the tg4 has made when they make their next Tv deal.
Yes TG4 are doing fantastic work in promoting club championships. Long may it continue.
Is the Tyrone county final not on the 14th at 4.00 Healy Park? Surely this would be worth broadcasting, even if delayed coverage?

the last 2 tyrone county finals were broadcast live on tg4 and both games were absolute rank, so i guess tg4 would be a bit cautious about going back to tyrone.
The deferred games are a great idea. You can attend a match in your own county then watch the TG4 game in the pub or at home. TG4 have helped raise the profile of club football over the past few years, no doubt about it. The provincial championships for Intermidiate and Junior clubs have also helped.
I'd like to agree with and echo the compliments about TG4 and their work in covering Gaelic Games in general and especially the club championships. I for one would love to see them getting the rights to the inter county championships as they would definitely do a better job.
It's worth mentioning that we don't always look for the most high profile games to cover. TG4 has a public service broadcast remit, and is not commercially driven to the same degree as other channels might be, though we have to ensure that matches are still of interest to both viewers and advertisers. We've built the programme's profile up over the past 8 seasons, from having an audience of 30-40K to over 250K for the most high profile matcches. We want to get around to the different counties, and this often involves finding a balance between broadcasting a match the public will want to watch, with giving all counties fair coverage. For example, Sligo's profile rose this Summer, which made the broadcast this Sunday a more attractive proposition. It means that we've been in 18 counties so far with either live or deferred coverage of county finals, and we've had highlights from the rest on the GAA highlights programme on Monday evening. We'd hope that we can get to the rest for live broadcast in the next few years, provided negotiations with the GAA go well on the next broadcast contract.
yes the coverage by tg4 is second to none and i really enjoy the Laochra GaeL programmes as well. Perhaps instead of the Underdogs they could start a new programme called the Boarders wherby 2 teams are picked from the discussion Board one team made up of Nordies and the other made up of the southerners(of course we will win we will have the Kerryboys) and we are trained by Joe Kernan and Jack O' connor. ah i can see it now magpie seanie solo's twice gives a hand pass to Kerry mike who sells a dummy to ziggysego and sends a beautilull ball in to Small White Mayoman who buries the ball past a helpless hardstation who seems to be having a word with his fullback 5ivetimes, all as Gaelige of course ;)i
I also believe that TG4 has done a lot of good work for the promotion of Gaelic games. The monday evening highlights programme, laochra gael, all ireland gold are all good examples. The best example I can think of is from last christmas day. We had RTE putting on a documentary about one of the great Micheal's and TG4 doing the same with the other. I thought the TG4 production was far superior and well done on a great job. I could list some areas where I feel there is a need for improvement but I won't burst bubble on what is a very positive thread.
TG4 have been outstanding in their sports coverage in general, and not just Gaelic games alone. I was saddened when they lost the Celtic/Magner's League rugby to Setanta, but it's easy enough understand how it happened.
From our perspective here, it's marvellous that TG4 recognise the primacy of the GAA in the culture, and Laochra Gael has been an absolute highlight of sports coverage on any station since its inception. Really outstanding stuff, and especially difficult for them to make when there mightn't be that much archive footage available (RTÉ are notorious for wiping tapes - when was the last time you saw Padraig Brogan's goal against Dublin in 1985 on telly?), nó cainteoirí na Gaeilge ach an oiread. You have to take your hat off to the boys on Laochra Gael whose Irish would be very middling but who give it a crack anyway, because they recognise its importance. Fantastic stuff. Just fantastic.
Just to add my appreciation to TG4, great service, really enjoy the club championship myself (Toomevara v Ballyhale was a great indicator of how the hurling season was to go), it's a pity the provincial councils don't try and help you's out a bit more by scheduling games on saturdays as well as sundays, too often there are 2/3 provincial finals on at the same time.
As for next sunday's undecided game, the derry final could be very interesting, minnows against the goliaths, but there is a good chance of an upset!!

IIRC along with Kelly denying those of us in 8-channel land the opportunity to see NFL games on Saturday nights, I thought the rights to club games on Saturdays went with that also. Having said that the Crokes/Moorefield and Toome/Ballyhale games were on TG4, unless it just related to the provincial games maybe.
GAA Beo - would you have any information on what rights Setanta for screening club games abroad? I know they show the Club final live but I was hoping that those of us in exile in Australia might be able to catch the provincial club games.
Do they pay you to screen the club final and could they do something similair ? I've tried contacting Setanta Australia but not much use as mainly marketing people and they seem to get confused when I mention GAA Club games.
Maybe Easytiger is still with Setanta and can answer also???
On Setanta's coverage, I don't know what editorial decisions they take regarding what matches they decide to televise. And it's unlikely we will be covering the Tyrone County Final. Once the county finals I outlined earlier are broadcast, we're probably on to the Club Championship at that stage, through November and December. When we finalize details, I'll post them here.

Sligo Football Final Live then Down Final with deferred coverage after it
Good choice. I didn't see the Sligo match as I was at the Antrim finals but the Down SFC final was a great game of football. Well done to all at TG4 for bringing this to a wider audience!
Don't know how it looked on TV but I felt our final was decent enough fare, though not as exciting as last year's perhaps.
NB - looking at it from the camera's perspective (i.e. at the stand and adjoining terraces) you would say there was a small crowd at it, and it looked bad in that sense, but the majority of the crowd ended up on the terrace where the cameras were, as there's a better view to be had there, so there was a bigger crowd then one would assume.
I still thought it was a poor crowd for a county final.
What is on the agenda for the next few weeks?
Quote from: magpie seanie on October 08, 2007, 11:09:04 AM

Suppose it was. Usually the stand and townside terrace would be as good as full, surprising considering the teams involved.
Then again - pay €20 or watch it on the TV instead? A disgraceful price to charge, even for a final.
Changes to GAA beo schedule next Sunday etc. Some details to be confirmed. Because of Kerry Co Final being postponed due to draw last weekend, we will now cover Laois Co Football Final between Portlaoise v Stradbally live. Programme starts transmission at 3:15 pm (TBC) (throw in 3:45 pm). Deferred match TBC.
On 21st Oct, Tipperary Hurling Final will be live between Loughmore-Killiney and Drom & Inch, followed by Monaghan Co Football Final, Castleblaney Faughs v Clontibret (deferred).
On 28th Oct, Kilkenny hurling final will be deferred transmission, live match which precedes it TBC.
Looks like 4th November we will in Club Championship territory, all the way to December 9th when we broadcast Munster & Leinster club football finals.
I'll amend changes, fill in gaps when counties have come back to us. In the meantime, websites will probably be inaccurate - it's unfortunate but it's the nature of matches at this time of year.
One further change. Laois Co Football Final will have a throw in time of 4 pm next Sunday, so GAA Beo will be on air from 3:30 pm onwards. Deferred match TBC.

Later matches will be posted here when the fixture list is decided. We tend not to look too far in advance at this time of year due to the possibility of postponements, draws/replays, etc. Also, for the 2 matches mentioned above they are 'stand alone' fixtures, ie there is no deferred match on these dates. The deferred coverage will begin again on Sunday November 18th.
QuoteAlso, for the 2 matches mentioned above they are 'stand alone' fixtures, ie there is no deferred match on these dates.
Why not? Deferred matchs are a good way forward and there are potentially interesting games on.
I think TG4 are showing the Northern Ireland Snooker Trophy both those weekends. I guess its starting after the live match. I would imagine the deferred matches will be back in two weeks.

Replays (if any)
Having often praised TG4's GAA progtramming, I thought last night's coverage of the club championships descended to near-RTÉ Sunday-night levels. It's just not possible to cram highlights of four matches into a half-hour programme, with one break in the middle and one at the end. The result is that the only 'highlights' we see are scores and we don't even see all of those.
The low point was reached last night when watching the 'highlights' of Seneschalstown-Vincents and the score was something like 5 points each. Then Vincents got a point and the current score came up again - Seneschalstown 1-5, Vincents 0-6! We never saw the goal! It may have been the worst goal ever scored in the club championship (I'll never know now) but surely the only goal in any game must qualify as a highlight?
It's great to have TG4, so I hope they'll take this as constructive criticism – a critical audience is a good guarantee of standards. Couldn't we have another half hour of Monday highlights – we'd miss an episode of Ros na Rún, maybe. Win - win!

It was a penalty, but still should have been shown alright. This is not the first time I have come across this, in highlights of a county final back in October they didn't show crucial goal chances at the end of the game, which when put in context are as much of a highlight as close in point from play from the first half
On another point, TG4 often show deferred games on Sundays. However with so many grounds with expensive floodlights could one game not simply start at 3:30 with a bit of artificial light thrown in?

Lay off Ros an run
But in general it a good reason why setanta should get the Gaa coverage. Part of the reson the club championship has been v poor this year is they semmed to be showing so waiters on a break playing pool. in to days term a general entertainmet channel cannot provide proper indepth sports coverage apart from major finals. they just spread it all so thin. where as setanta is crying out for programming or soon they'll be showing show sports as ballroom dancing ,UFC(t**ker fighting) and tractor pulling
In reply to a couple of points raised earlier:
The goal was missed on camera in the Vincent's v Seneschalstown match because of a camera battery change and that is why it didn't feature in the highlights package. It was unfortunate that the camera operator had to change battery at that time but when it is single camera coverage you always take a chance on losing a score. I've been told that it's just the second time that something like this has happened in almost a decade of covering matches for highlights for TG4. In relation to clips that are/ are not included, we generally don't show frees, and near misses are selected or left out after careful consideration. Because some programmes have tighter time constraints than others this may explain why sometimes incidents which didn't result in scores are omitted.
Regarding programme length, TG4 has a policy of making each of the GAA 2007 programmes half an hour in length. This cannot be changed on a week to week basis. Scheduling, advertising and other programming reasons make this impossible. In a couple of weeks we'll be down to the last match in each province, and a half hour will be more than enough.
From next weekend we're back to televising 2 matches back to back, we'll have live coverage of the Ballyhale v Birr match (coverage starts 1:30 pm), followed by the Tulla v Ballyduff match in full.
Fair enough GAA Beo - that's not a bad excuse! I won't be picky and say that maybe the problem is not a battery failure as much as the fact that there's only one camera! I know there were many matches and maybe there are not so many cameras/crews and better one camera than none at all.

Because some programmes have tighter time constraints than others this may explain why sometimes incidents which didn't result in scores are omitted.
Regarding programme length, TG4 has a policy of making each of the GAA 2007 programmes half an hour in length. This cannot be changed on a week to week basis. Scheduling, advertising and other programming reasons make this impossible. In a couple of weeks we'll be down to the last match in each province, and a half hour will be more than enough.
From next weekend we're back to televising 2 matches back to back, we'll have live coverage of the Ballyhale v Birr match (coverage starts 1:30 pm), followed by the Tulla v Ballyduff match in full.
The TG4 coverage has been brilliant although I have two suggestions, one of which is a MUST and the second merely a helpful idea for us slow-learners an dteanga:
1. The camera should be positioned opposite the main spectator area. For instance on Sunday last the stand at Newry was full but the camera was used from that position even though the main camera position is on the opposite terrace. So the ighlights suggested very few at the match wheres the attendance was over 5,000.
Your production values are diminished by not showing the spectators in the background which would be much more atmospheric than always looking at empty terraces. I know using the stand is the easy option but it does not do the games justice and if I was in the GAA governing body I would insist on the preferred location being used. This was very pronounced in some of the hurling games this season.
2. I have a smattering of Irish but match commentaries are too fast to follow. Could a few token words in the foreign tongue not be thrown into the commentary in much the same way that M O'Muircheartaigh reverses it on RTE1. I know some interviews are in English (out of necessity) and I agree with the language ethos of the station but some recognition of us dunderheads would help us.
Otherwise keep up the good work and we'll chip in for a second camera for you.
drici - I didn't see any clips from Ballina v Tourlestrane last night?

Fair enough GAA Beo - that's not a bad excuse! I won't be picky and say that maybe the problem is not a battery failure as much as the fact that there's only one camera! I know there were many matches and maybe there are not so many cameras/crews and better one camera than none at all.
The goal was on the RTE news on sunday night.
On another note, why do TG4 ignore Ulster?
They showed the Monaghan football live this year

Agree with that, hersindoors ALWAYS comments on it when i'm watching a match and the stand opposite to the camera is empty. "sher you must be the only person interested in this, there's no one there" ... I try to explain that there's in fact about 5000 people underneath the camera but she dosent believe me. I know TG4 try to show the crowd as often as possible but it looks bad when the stand you see during play is totally empty.
They showed the Down and Armagh finals live as well.
In saying that I'm not sure they are actually showing any ulster club football live at all which you would have to question.
Also given the ulster hurling final is on before basically any other provincial finals meaning there are less conflicts I hoped it would have been shown too but not to be...
Quote from: Hardy on November 13, 2007, 10:47:54 AM
The low point was reached last night when watching the 'highlights' of Seneschalstown-Vincents and the score was something like 5 points each. Then Vincents got a point and the current score came up again - Seneschalstown 1-5, Vincents 0-6! We never saw the goal!
Peno, Joe Sheridan, buried low into the keepers right hand corner, keeper dove the right way but couldnt stop it.
A Tg4 cameraman was seen behind the goal scrambling frantically through his kit bag for batteries at the time.

Must say i think a better highlights program could be produced as well, whats wrong with an hour and a half, a bit of anaylsis and so on. I'm not just saying this is TG4s fault, they've done wonders for GAA club coverage but i think it could be taken to another level now. A bit of an aul'desk and a couple of GAA journalists having a chat couldnt cost that much.

Nobody has any complaints. I was just replying to someone saying they show quarter-finals in Galway when they don't.
Galway gets shown every year I imagine because there are more Irish speakers in Galway than anywhere else (and TG4 is an Irish language station first and foremost) and TG4 is based half an hour from Pearse Stadium.

I know that actually understand why they would do it, its normally one that is of interest to neutrals anyway, as this years was again. I'm just jealous, Louth final made the highlights programme this year, but when the mighty Joes won it last year they didn't even make the highlights programme. Thems the breaks.

I've managed to ween her off corrie thank god, she just objects to me parking in front of the TV for a couple of hours of a sunday afternoon.
I'm sure they have the cameras in the easiest location to use, just think where ever possible they should try and have that opposite the open stand, not the closed or empty one, it give the impression to the casual observer that no one can be arsed turing up when in fact there's a decent crowd if you take into account the populations of the parishes involved.
To clarify a couple of points made earlier.
At any venue where we can film across from the crowd we do this. Some venues are just laid out so that you have to shoot from behind the crowd. The camera gantry for example at places like Páirc Uí Chaoimh, Semple Stadium or Páirc na nGael are located in the same stand as most of the crowd congregate. These places are set up from a cabling perspective so that we can use only the gantry - there's a bit more flexibility with some regional grounds. There may be difficulties here also however because sometimes to face the crowd we need to build a gantry, and for several reasons this may not be suitable - pylons or poles in the way, pillars within old stands which impinge on the view, or even from an access and insurance standpoint this is not always possible. Whenever we can we face the crowd for the reasons outlined by others.
Galway are televised not because there is any pro Galway bias but because they figure in the province with least counties. TG4 has visited every county in the country for either live, deferred or highlight transmission. We also plan to visit each province in the interests of fairness. We have to balance being fair to provinces and giving the public a match that they will watch. It's not always feasible to provide county matches from lower profile counties, but we do take opportunities when the profile of the county has risen - Sligo and Monaghan finals were televised this year.
While every county supporter will want his/her county covered as often as possible, we can only do our best with the resources available. I see Ulster fans saying we don't visit them enough - note that we'll be back in January with the McKenna Cup when the Province will have exclusive coverage.
We always want to do more, but we do work within confined budgets, so get on to your local politicians if you want TG4 to fund the GAA programmes to include more games!
Thought as much, thanks for the low down GAA BEO! Keep up the good work!
TG4 are legends for Club games. Themselves and Setanta are streets ahead of what RTE bothers to show.
Indeed. And can you imagine RTÉ bothering to respond to points made here in the way Gaa Beo and Easytiger do?
Fair play GAA Beo, keep her lit
How about an online poll on TG4's website to choose the following week's club game? Would Ballyhale v Birr have come out on top? Ballyhale are 4/11 favs to win so that suggests they'll have it in the bag midway through the 2nd half.
And yes the Monday highlights programme is too short. Even The Sunday Game goes on for two hours.

Turns out to have been an excellent decision to show the Birr match. A cracking game all through with some great hurling. Most enjoyable match I've seen on the TV since the Kerry vs Galway AI minor football semi-final.
So much for my tipping. I was also blowing about Adare going to beat Loughmore. That's goes to show why you never see a poor bookmaker.

Maith go leor, ach... I highlighted Pairc Esler where there is a purpose built gantry opposite the main stand. The ground is completely clear of poles, pillars, etc. and tha t is clearly the best place to film from. I know you have budgets but it seems to me a case of - park the van behind the stand, a few minutes to run in the cable and just pop the camera in beside the press box and to hell with the result! As I've siad - you do great work but with a little extra planning and effort you can produce an even better one.
So what game is on this weekend???

Yes, we have 3 Sundays outstanding between now and Christmas. On air at 1:30 pm on each Sunday.
2 Dec Munster Club Hurling Final LIVE, followed by deferred transmission of Leinster Club Hurling Final.
9 Dec Munster Club Football Final LIVE - no deferred transmission.
16 Dec Leinster Club Football Final LIVE - no deferred transmission.
lads it's highly unlikely the leinster final will be on the 16th -that's the unofficial word through the grapevine so to speak. If Tyrrelpass win it might be on the 16th but i would say if moorefield win there is zero chance of it being on - between appeals -suspensions -injuries-likely counter appeals etc etc- that's what the word is.

Going by the advertisement for this Sunday coming,it looks as though Croí na hÉireann's request was noted and Moorefield v Tyrellspass will be shown after the Munster Final.
Seen that myself Drici :)
Santa, aka GAA Beo, I want a 50" plasma for Christmas...
I've heard an appeal has been lodged by Moorefield so I don't think the game will be going ahead as scheduled!
So the game is going ahead tomorrow? By the way drici what is the price on Ballinacourty with the handicap?
I really fancy Ballinacourty to cover that, they are big, strong and have a good few lads that play for Waterford. And from what I hear in Cork this Nemo side are poorer than normal. The weather conditions also make for a low scoring game so unless Nemo get a soft goal I can't see them winning by more than 3 points.

those matches today wont go ahead after the wehater yesterday will they ?
I haven't heard anything yet, so I'm presuming they are still going ahead.

Jesus, I'm good ;)
Indiscipline and the class of Masters were the difference at the end. I can't see Nemo winning the AI though, they are too dependent on Masters for scores. does anyone know who plays who in the semis?
Nemo Rangers play Ballina Stephenites in the semi-finals.
Crossmaglen Rangers await the Leinster champions.
just finished watching the leinster semi final there- well done to tyrellspass- bloody awful game though. i can't see them winning the final.
What was the peno for? I thought you couldn't tackle the keeper in the small square.
Penalty did seem a very very harsh decision to be fair. It was the difference in the end.
Well the keeper probably did over carry and he wasn't fouled if you can tackle in the small square. But I don't think you can.
Regarding the Munster final:
QuoteA small attendance of 1,037 watched on in Killarney
That's shocking really, is it not - for a provincial final?
Yeah absolutely brutal, but Nemo wouldn't have big following and the weather conditions wouldn't have helped. Ballinacourty I thought would have brought a much bigger crowd but I suppose the journey to Killarney would have put many off. The game should have been played somewhere in Tipp or else toss a coin for home/away.
There was more at our under 21 final in Tyrone today. >:(
Really, where did you hear that? are you sure it didn't happen in the Moorefield game?
Yeah that makes more sense, you could see at the end of the match that the Moorefield lads were less than impressed with him.

Is it the Donegal or Galway final that's live though?

No need to get so animated, Jinxy.
I refuse to be drawn into an argument.
I thought yer man, No 15 for the other side, O'Donovan, was the spit of Elmer Fud
Missed Tg4's highlights yest, did they show highlights of the Derry final?
Nope and I'd have swore they said the previous Monday they were going to.
Fermanagh, Donegal extended, Galway(to be honest one of the worst football matches I've ever witnessed) and I think one other which I can't mind.
The Donegal game was good - Letterkenny looked very good. The no. 4 for that Termon team was a dirty hallion.
Yeah they def said they were going to, but I took a scan look through the show on Tg4's website and couldn't see it.
What games are on this Sunday?
QuoteNo joy in Galway for Wile E. Coyote and the boys.
That really was one shite game.
Any club matches on this weekend?
getting ahead of myself here. any chance ya'd know who will be showing next week?? maybe the ulster preliminary round??
Think it O'Mahonys against Summerhill on TV this week
the Tyrone senior football final will in all likelihood be between Clonoe and Dromore - this should be a must see battle with Dromore facing a cracking young club side. It just may cast some insight into the conveyor belt available to Tyrone boss Mickey Harte. A great tv choice tg4.
highlights on tg4 now
is that Barry Kelly refereeing the football final?
It was...
tg4's gaa coverage doesn't work over t'internet in the uk like it did last year - have they done the same as rte & restricted it to Ireland only?
why does RTE do that? we have a bad enough feeling of being left out for nearly 90 years without the lack of internet coverage ;)
Firstly RTE coverage does work in the occupied 6, provided your ISP indicates that is where you are. Secondly Setanta have the rights outside Ireland, so RTE cannot just decide to show the games there.
Given the first provincial final of the year is on this sunday - ulster hurling - tg4 should really be covering this. I've not seen them cover any ulster hurling in a brave while so doubt this will happen.
Any on word on what's on?
Tipperary County Hurling Final is on live this Sunday.

LIVE @ 15:30 - Kildare SFC Final - Celbridge v Sarsfields @ St. Conleth's Park, Newbridge
DEFERRED @ 17:05 - Tipperary SHC Final - Sarsfields v Toomevara @ Semple Stadium
TG4 mustn't like Mayo football or something. Ballaghaderreen v Charlestown is as good as you'd get, but they show Kildare.
Is dóca nach creideann siad gurbh é Cluiche Ceannais Mhuigh Eo mar tá foireann Ros Comáineach ag imirt inti. ;D
(Sure how would they figure that it could be a Mayo Co Final with the teams being from 2 different Counties)
St galls mayobridge is as good as game as you will get this weekend, should be on the box!!! (hint hint BBC!!!)
Is Ballyhale v James Stephens on this weekend ??
Ballyhale v James Stephens is Sunday October 26th in Nowlan Park. Think it's a 3.30 start
They couldnt show the Ballagh-Charlestown Mayo county final as they wouldnt be able to find a flag bit of ground to perch the camera. Its like Beirut down in McHale Park with all the development. Real armageddan stuff....

Turning off the mics wont spare the poor children at the game hearing the big boys using naughty words.
Maybe the kids just think that there's a player on every team called Arfer Fuxaches?
for those who want to change the language of the commentry to attract more viewers from a particular tongue, by your logic if the games were shown with spanish or chinese commentary there would be more spanish / chinese viewers watching it.
Thats only true if there are Spanish and Chinese people interested in GAA. I dont watch every programme that is in english because its the language i speak!

Carmen, I sent Tg4 an e-mail as I live in england and I can't get access either, when I could in other years. This is their reply -:
Quote
This is probably a rights issue. TG4 have the rights to show the Club Championships and the Football and Hurling Leagues, these rights are restricted to Ireland only because the GAA have sold the International viewing rights to another company (Setanta I think) - therefore if you are using TG4 LIVE from outside Ireland these matches are blocked. There are some exceptions, we can show Ladies Football and McKenna Cup matches internationally and club championship matches until they leave their county - once they are playing provincial matches they are blocked again.
I hope that this explains what is happening, of course we would love to show all GAA matches Internationally but the rights would cost too much for TG4.
I thought that this would indicate they would at least show the county finals if not the provincial matches but there was no coverage these past few Sundays of county finals. However, to be honest he doesn't convince me that he knows what he is talking about, good and all as it was of him to take the time to reply.
Would it be that the club finals are being broadcated on the smae show as the provicinals? There are a few matches benig broadcasted by tg4 tomorrow.

I was able to watch the Tyrone county final live on TG4 website and i'm in Wales.
If it doesn't connect, click on options and select the higher bandwidth (450k) instead of the lower (250k). Usually works fine on 450k but nothing at all on 250k.
Will be interested to see what happens for provincial championships.....Setanta sure as hell won't show it, even if they bought the rights.

GAA ON TG4
THURSDAY 6 NOVEMBER
9:30pm The Underdogs
Pressure - in this week's show, the girls are starting to feel the pressure, the team has injuries to contend with and as always someone faces elimination from the team.
The third programme of the new season of the Underdogs with the whole team working towards...Underdogs v The Bulldogs. The Underdogs team is drawn from players all over the country who for one reason or another have never had the chance to represent their county at senior level. National pride will be at stake in December when the Underdogs take on All Ireland Junior Champions, London on their own turf in England on Saturday 6th December. For the inexperienced Underdogs this represents a mammoth task. They are led by an expert management team - Jarlath Burns, Geraldine Feerick and Eamonn Ó Muircheartaigh. They have just 6 months to select a panel of 30 unknowns to train under their watchful eye in the hope of improving their game and becoming strong enough to beat an All Ireland winning team.

Jayz forgot the final was back in Tuam this year.
The Kilkenny Final is lve today at 3.00pm. Ballyhale Shamrocks v The Village.
What's being covered over the next few weeks? Has it been announced?
why do they never show the kerry football final, they usually try and cover the county final of the all ireland winning team, but I can't recall ever seeing a kerry final. Also, they should arrange with the fixtures boyos and arrange a schedule allowing them to show 2 live games of a sunday. Come the end of Nov we usually have 3/4 big provincial games on, all seemingly crackers (rarely live up to it though) and tg4 invariably pick the least appetising to me (cos they rarely show ulster games).
And as for the irish commentary, they really should get rid of it (and a few canned sound effects from the crowd would go down a treat too ;)).
Munster Senior Football Quarter Final:
(Kerry)Kerins O'Rahillys v Clonakilty(Cork) - live (2-00pm throw in).
Ulster Senior Football Quarter Final:
(Monaghan)Clontibret O'Neills v Dromore St Dympnas(Tyrone) - deferred.

Aye, but in order to attract the big bucks from advertisers they should broadcast the games in english - they're up against the super sunday or whatever sky call that shite, in terms of spend, it's known that people who don't speak irish spend more on beer, and high value consumer goods, irish speakers tend to spend money on fiddles, arran jumpers and bodhrans - who's going to pay more for advertising, a beer manufacturer or a bodhran maker? They can always have the irish coming up in subtitles if they want.

Ballygunner v Cratloe
Ballyhale v Ballyboden
Portumna V Loughrea
maybe somebody should place a sticky at the top with the link to the tg4 schedule, i'm constantly amazed by the requests from people as to what's on this sunday etc, would it not be as easy to head off to tg4.ie (and click on bearla).

An absolutly terribly week of weather.
TG4 still delivered 2 televised club games. Well done TG4, keep it comming.
But they were poor and one wasn't finished.
I hope the weather improves for Ballygunner -vs- Newtownshandrum. Could be an excellent match.

2/5 Galls and 5/2 Loup
silly odds considering the Derry Champions are playing the Antrim champions.
Also the Derry championship being so difficult to win and the record Derry teams have in the competition.
1-3 points will be the winning margin (either team)
2/5 Galls and 5/2 Loup
Loop worth a bet at that money. I agree, will be less than 4 between them.
If the weather is really really bad the ulster final could be close, otherwise I don't expect Loup to get particularly close - you never know with Galls though, they could be complacent, hard not to be in their postion after the way they won the 'real' final against Clontibret.
Whoever won Derry was always going to be hot favs to make an Ulster final given the draw, so whilst i'd love to see Loup do it, I think Sunday will be time to say goodbye to the Loup boys, it's been some season, 16/1 for Derry at the quarter final stage and now in an Ulster final, aye the bookies are rarely wrong, they were with that, but I think they've called it this Sunday and it'd be Galls -3 for me.
i remember a final when the Derry Champions were favourites (Ballinderry i think) they were playing Cross at Casement, must have bee the only time Cross were not favourites for the final. but the weather was dreadfull and Cross beat them in a very low scoring final.
Boys are looking forward to it, training tonight and good buzz about them.

Remember it well. A large crowd gathered at the back of Casement stand* to get out of the rain/wind/hail. Was something like 0-05 0-03.

There are but there are still far more Irish speakers in Galway than anywhere else in the country. I should know as I'm one myself. To say there is more in Belfast is just completely daft.
Just a suggestion.
In future, could the Footrball coverage be on before the Hurling?
When its on after Hurling, you realise how pedestrian and how tame it can be.
Just a suggestion.

Limerick Senior Hurling Championship Final
Kilmallock v Emmets live
Donegal Senior Football Championship Final
Naomh Conaill v Na Cealla Beaga delayed coverage
Great news greeted hurling fans in the county this Thursday when Limerick GAA secretary Mike O Riordan confirmed that the popular weekly GAA Beo television programme on TG4 will becoming live from the Gaelic Grounds on Sunday October 3rd.
The Limerick hurling decider will top the bill for GAA fans afternoons entertainment with both Emmetts and Kilmallock meeting in what should be a fantastic final.
After two very interesting semi finals at the weekend, in which both Emmetts and Kilmallock came through, they will now square off in a novel final to battle it out for the much coveted Daly cup.
It is the first time that TG4 will show a Limerick county senior hurling final live and is a major boost to the profile of the final.
Full time secretary 'O Riordan was quick to comment on the great news "The all south decider is attracting huge interest from within the county and the showing of the game live on TG4 is going to further add to the hype that surrounds the game already, I was delighted when the news was confirmed to me this morning".
This is a much needed boost to the game in the county and to the Gaelic Grounds which just three short weeks later will host a test of International Rules series in which Anthony Tohills Ireland side will take on the mite of the Australians.
KILMALLOCK AND EMMETS will contest the SENIOR HURLING FINAL
Kilmallock and Emmets will meet in this years senior hurling Final after coming through their respective Semi Finals.
Emmets recorded a ten point win over Knockainey on a 1-16 to 0-9 scoreline while Kilmallock
put in a storming second half to beat Na Piarsaigh on a 2-18 to 1-8 scoreline.

Tipperary Senior Hurling Championship Final

Just so it looks right.
Galway Hurling Final whacked.
In fairness to TG4, there is generally a bias shown towards county finals over early round provincial games. Being honest, you'd have thought that Portlaoise vs Moorefield was a better prospect for a game than the Mayo County final too, but they went with the decider match - that's just their tendency.
As for the Anti Ulster thing, the reason is that the county finals up north tended to be finished a lot earlier. Most counties have their championship done and dusted for a month now. That's a great tribute to the management of fixtures up North, but it also explains why appealing finals in places like Derry and Antrim didn't get covered.
Good news that the st galls game is being shown across the country, well done tg4.

Derry senior final between Coleraine and Ballinderry was a thriller which you would have thought as a certain guarantee of live coverage.
Not many would have predicted that before the start though. It's all very well saying that in hindsight, but most people would have expected Ballinderry to win with five or six to spare.

not on the derry thread they didn't - B'derry were favs based on name only - but that's neither here nor there. You have a point, but there's always been a bias against Ulster games, this is the first Ulster game to be shown live since the 2008 final I think. Before that it was very possibly the 2005 final, although there was a Tyrone final shown in between. I could be a wee bit wrong about that, but I can't mind any others.
never mind the live coverage, there is a highlights programme on the monday night and clontibret v magheracloone from ulster is all i have seen so far. There has been everything from Louth football to Laois Hurling, no disrespect to any of the 4 teams involved.

Very good win for Crokes.
Dominated the 2nd half.
Will they have any of their county players back for the Crossmaglen game?
Some achievement to win a provincial title missing so many.
Scored first 4 points of the second half. That start give them the platform for a good win. Cross will have too much for them.
Cross are just lucky they won't have to face them in Croke Park.
Crokes would run the legs off them just like they did before.
If Crokes had their full team I'd put the house on them.

Different Cross team Jinxy that played them in final. Don't think they would run the legs of current team but do think they have enough to beat us. I said it before, it is Kilmacuds to lose and my mind hasn't been changed.

Don't they have a huge local population to pick from along with the odd talented blow-in to bolster their ranks? Don't get me wrong so do plenty of other clubs in Dublin and they don't win nearly as much so Crokes must obviously be putting great work into it but I don't know if I'd call it amazing when you see what some tiny rural clubs have to do just to survive these days.

lavey would probably be smaller than ballinderry, although i could be wrong.

Cluichí Ceannais na Gaillimhe gan dabht. ::)
Looks like there won't be any live Club match on Sunday 9th October as a result of the replays in the Junior and Intermediate Peil na mBan Finals but to make up for it Leinster have stepped in and put back their Club Championship so that the Final takes place now on Sunday 18th December.
(http://www.mediafire.com/imgbnc.php/62cef1521fdb0ce118831f4e6b6138cc91b85c723e6d998ab5a2e7bcb0c4816c6g.jpg)
Given the prospect of another snowmaggeddon, I wouldn't be confident of the 18 December date for the Leinster Final.
Out of interest did the Leinster club championship get delayed when Meath won the All Ireland in 1999?
Ended in early December based on the Googling I did so probably not.

Back then you could nominate a team if your championship wasn't over on time. I know my own club didn' t get to take part in Leinster the last time we won our championship, but the county was still represented.
Best of luck to the Dunshaughlin lads on Sunday against Summerhill in Meath county final - Plenty of flags and bunting up so hopefully the Keegan cup will return Sunday night
What games are being shown today ?
Edit.... found it, Donegal football live and Limerick hurling deferred
Donegal County Football Final and deferred coverage of the Limerick County Hurling Final
Looking forward to the donegal final as we'll see it they use the Donegal county template.
Michael Murphy - scores 1-7 out of 1-8 to win the cup for his club. A man mountain who just could not be held and he literally won the game on his own.
Aye he was immense, the goal was great, rose above the fullback and shot first time into the corner
Murphy's goal was the best i've seen all year. Immense player.
great performance by Murphy
If Cross win ( ;D) the Armagh Championship they will show our game on the Saturday night on TG4
Murphy got a full frontal charge by one of the st michael's boys (I think ill timed more than anything). The guy who did it fell flat on his back and Murphy scored a point. Boys were bouncing off him left - right and centre. Beast of a man who by the looks of it will need a system played against him to curb him. Be interesting to see how cavan gaels play him.
Glenswilly played well defensively - very much in numbers. They'll not be easy beat.

I'd rather see a county final myself but I think TG4 actually sponsor the ladies football championships, that's why they're probably showing it.
That's likely enough alright. Any idea when we'll know what they have lined up for next weekend?

Agree there. Glenswilly have a good team. very good defence thats hard to beat and of course any team with Michael Murphy up front is extremely lucky. His performance in the county final blew us all away. sucha beast of a man.. such sheer strength and immence skill. Best of luck to glenswilly on th 13th.. do donegal proud :D

Right enough, who'd want to see the last 2 All ireland champions playing when they could watch the Kerry final. (Correct me if I'm wrong here but one of the teams would not be allowed to compete in the Munster championship?)
If you are referring to the players who might also play for UCC, the UCC manager said that he would expect his players to play for their clubs if they drew UCC in the Munster championship.
No he was referring to the Kerry divisional team, Mid Kerry, which wouldn't have been permitted in the Munster championship so no matter what happened Dr Crokes were representing Kerry at the next stage. The Kerry structure has been discussed at length in other threads. It's interesting enough reading.

If Mid Kerry had won then Kerry would have been represented by Rathmore.
When a divisional team wins the County Championship, the Club Championship winners (Rathmore beat Laune Rangers in that final last Sunday) are the county's representatives in Munster.
Ummm I think AZ said they changed that a couple of years ago.

To be honest I like most Kerry people dont really care who represents Kerry .County comes first with only the urban clubs been able to sustain senior status on a long term basis . Allready the rural clubs are falling back in terms of numbers

Think you should write "UCC (
Kerry and some other places)" there. In the semi-final they fielded eight Kerry, six Cork and one Roscommon! And that's with the Crokes' Johnny Buckley and Daithí Casey (who now have 2011 senior football championship medals in both Cork and Kerry) out of their team for obvious reasons, and indeed preparing to play against them.
A change to the deferred match on Sunday.

Best of luck to that one Roscommon man Niall Daly on Sunday! he has already won Sigerson,Cork championship medals with UCC will be some achievement if he wins a Munster title.
They really love their Munster hurling on TG4. Horsing and walloping must make for good TV. I don't see the attraction meself.
It was a good battle last Sunday.
I have always felt that TG4 coverage of Connacht club games has been tokanistic to say the least. You will find that some of the best provincial club games are in Connacht.
Battle being the operative word.
Fine if you want to watch a contest where both teams' primary gameplan is to test the strength of their opponents' collar-bones. You know what they say down there - "never mind the ball, get on with the game".

Fully agree. RTE and TV3 should be told to go fcuk themselves in the summer.
+1 .. esp RTE.
Yeah, because the GAA could exists in today's world without TV revenue and all the associated sponsorship deals and promotion coverage of major games give the sports. That attitude is the fast track to the GAA being an irrelevancy in the sporting landscape.
And TV3 are the ones that are worst, they have a second digital channel and could easily pick up the tail-end of the club championships, Under-21, Sigerson Cup finals and league matches if they had any desire for something more than a ratings spike.
It's the GAA that should get aggressive and package Dublin/All-Ireland series matches with commitments to show more and more live coverage of other grades. It's their responsibility to force their way onto tv more, not the stations to bow down before the mighty sons of Davin, all they care about is cost and ratings.

Some one asked me the other day if I watched club football in London. As I didn't I felt I perhaps I should.
London Senior Football Championship Final
Tir Chonaill Gaels 1-15 v Kingdom Kerry Gaels 1-8 (H/T 1-6 - 0-2)
The first thing to point out about this match was that the crowd seemed much bigger than the one that attend London's qualifier against Antrim in the Championship. It was a double header but I still found this a bit surprising
The match itself was a tetchy affair, littered with niggley fouls and handbags. TCG set the pace hitting the post from a free in the opening minute and dominating the early exchanges. 5 points and a well taken goal saw TCG go in at half time with a seven point lead which Kingdom never recovered.
However the turning point of the match came at the end of the half when Kevin Waldron (sorry if I've got the name wrong) saw red for a blatant punch. KKG were reduced to 13 in the latter stages their semi-final, but having to play over half the game a man short was always going to be to much.
KKG opened the second half scoring but were then on the end of a TCG scoring onslaught. Eight unanswered in 15 minutes ended the match as a contest.
That said KKG dug deep with 4 points and a goal without reply. A couple minutes after their goal Kingdom put a point over the bar from inside the small rectangle when a goal looked certain. In the end TCG held their nerve to run out deserved winners by 7 points.
I understand that Tir Chonaill Gaels will now represent London in an All Ireland Club Championship. Is this a valued competition?

The All Ireland Club football Championship would be the equivalent of the Champions league, only that its the champions from each county represented and nothing else and its Knock out fooball. The London champions always play in the Connacht Club Championship, the same way as London play in Connacht for the County championship. Tit Chonaill will be playing in the next few weeks,

So do we have a qualifier system as we do in the Championship, or do the four provincial winners go into the semi finals?

Some one asked me the other day if I watched club football in London. As I didn't I felt I perhaps I should.
London Senior Football Championship Final
Tir Chonaill Gaels 1-15 v Kingdom Kerry Gaels 1-8 (H/T 1-6 - 0-2)
The first thing to point out about this match was that the crowd seemed much bigger than the one that attend London's qualifier against Antrim in the Championship. It was a double header but I still found this a bit surprising
The match itself was a tetchy affair, littered with niggley fouls and handbags. TCG set the pace hitting the post from a free in the opening minute and dominating the early exchanges. 5 points and a well taken goal saw TCG go in at half time with a seven point lead which Kingdom never recovered.
However the turning point of the match came at the end of the half when Kevin Waldron (sorry if I've got the name wrong) saw red for a blatant punch. KKG were reduced to 13 in the latter stages their semi-final, but having to play over half the game a man short was always going to be to much.
KKG opened the second half scoring but were then on the end of a TCG scoring onslaught. Eight unanswered in 15 minutes ended the match as a contest.
That said KKG dug deep with 4 points and a goal without reply. A couple minutes after their goal Kingdom put a point over the bar from inside the small rectangle when a goal looked certain. In the end TCG held their nerve to run out deserved winners by 7 points.
I understand that Tir Chonaill Gaels will now represent London in an All Ireland Club Championship. Is this a valued competition?

This year the London champions (Fulham Irish) took on St Brigid's (Connacht champions) in the quarter final, the year before Crossmaglen played the London champs so they are now due to play the Munster or Leinster winners.
The other three provincial winners go through to the semi finals.

On account of the large number of games that they have to play to win their provincial championship, the leinster club champions never have to play the British champions.
Big game in Warwickshire tomorrow lads, the final everyone in South Birmingham wants, John Mitchels v Sean McDermotts. There's a genuine and intense dislike rivalry between these two clubs and the presence of Liam O'Neill, fair play to him, can only add to the occasion. I think this is the first time a GAA President has attended our showpiece and it is to his credit that he is trying to raise the profile of the games in (forgotten) backwaters like Warwickshire.
Here's hoping for a good, hard and clean ;) game for him to enjoy.
hope she is a good game. where is the game?
Pairc na hEireann.
Liam o neill was at the woman's decider last month there.
First time I was there before also. Good set up.
Are you going today? Everything is set up for a real tasty final (even the weather).
Back home for county final. Good luck today lad!!!!
Cheers, the same to you.
Anyone any ideas yet on what they'll show live next Sunday ?
I see TG4 can matches online anymore? Who showing the gaa matches online nowadays?
I was at the Mayo Final today, here's my tactical take http://action81.com/blog/?p=6343
TG4 will be showing the Kerry Final live next week and the Cork Final deferred.
We are streaming lots of GAA games online at www.destinationnewry.com - including the Down IFC and SFC finals today.
Before the live game yesterday, there was a junior game in Castlebar and I've put together analysis on it here http://action81.com/blog/?p=6368
Right your wee man was just about to get wired into a 24 by 18 canvas on Irish Paint Magic on TG4 when the whole picture went off a few minutes ago. May start looking about to get one of those box things to attach to the teilifís so as to be able to see the Club matches - and be better getting one with TV3 on it as well for next year.
I was at the Cork finals today, here's my take on Castlehaven's win over Duhallow
http://action81.com/blog/?p=6381
If you can't stream the matches from TG4's website you could always do it from aertv.ie.
It's worked for me in the past.
I would have thought been today a Bank Holiday TG4 would broadcast the Dublin SFC final between :
Ballymun Kickhams v Kilmacud Crokes @ Parnell Park @ 7.45pm.
I would think that such a big game should be televised as it would attract viewers in my opinion.
I watched some of the Castlehaven/Duhallow game yesterday. Do these divisional teams get much support? Would many say Ballydesmond people go to support Duhallow??

Duhallow are an unusual one. They are a Divisional side who run things like a senior club. There are no other senior clubs in their locality and they are all junior clubs generally with no real threat on the junior championship so the Divisional side is actually the main side. They have been traditionally strong with such greats as the Yank Danny Culloty gracing the jersey as well as O'Connor in recent years.
Before the defensive battle in Páirc Uí Chaoimh, there was the inter final. I've written a bit on that game here http://action81.com/blog/?p=6383
Great double for Ballymun last night. I have tactical analysis and video of the presentation here http://action81.com/blog/?p=6387
Spot on there Emmet- very good analysis
Cheers Declan
Will Ballinderry/Errigal be on tg4 this weekend?
Kilmacud Crokes v Oulart the Ballagh live
Naomh Conaill v Naomh Adhamhnáin live
We couldnt stand another Sunday of watching that pedestrian football. Its a bad day when the soccer appears to be more lively on the other side.
Have to agree, last few club finals has been dire stuff to be honest.
I genuinely enjoyed the Cork one, pity the Dublin one wasn't live as that was a cracker. Haven't watched the Kerry one yet, going to look at it this evening.
County finals this time of year are often awful to watch due to the weather unfortunately. Lost count of the amount of times I've seen finals ruined by strong winds and rain in late October/early November.
Age old question of why it has taken to now to get them played then, very litte excuse with most counties now having flood lights capable of holding games under.
What time will the games be getting underway at on Sunday do you know drici?
Quote from: Farrandeelin on October 30, 2012, 04:54:22 PM

The Irish summers aren't much better. Decent weather at this year's Connacht final but most of the other games i was at had high winds & rain.

Quote from: mattockranger on November 06, 2012, 11:38:14 AM

They both start at 2.30 - that means the Salthill game is deferred coverage then I take it?
Sorry, thats what i meant!
Have the matches on Sunday been confirmed?
Will destination Newry be showing the Cross game?

Why?
Eunans were on last week, Cross are on next week. Seems fair enough.

Cheers for that HS,(as you've gathered I've no Irish :-[) now, what time approx will it be shown?
Nice one HS, cheers. Looks like a few hours on the high stool for me. Life is a hard station sometimes alright.
If Salthill were in the final TG4 would be jumping all over themselves to have the Connacht final as the live game. Nevermind accounting for the uniqueness of the Connacht final or the fact football almost always draws better numbers than hurling.
I guess Brigids just have to keep winning to get those sexy beo minutes on the box.

Sure they can barely speak English in Roscommon. Let alone Irish. ;D
Realistically it was always going to be tough for Ballaghaderreen to compete for the full hour today. The hurling today deserved to be the number one billing. It proved to be a cracker of a game, despite Thurles Sarsfields dominance they only put De La Salle away near the end and De La Salle were a man down for most of the game. I'm sure the player feels awful for landing out with the hurley like that. However, I can't say I'm that sorry for the Thurles player. Why on Earth hurlers need to jump around after winning a free is beyond me!

Ever tried winning a free in hurling? Sure the referee always forgets his whistle ffs! Seen just as many footballers jump around after winning a free when they fall over

Crokes look to have this game but tell me this:
Is there anyone (any neutral) who would prefer to watch this Munster game than the Cross game live on TG4.
That Cross team should be shown live any chance possible while they're in their pomp. Takes away from it watching it deferred as you already know the score.
With the delayed start in the Ulster final (3.15) will TG4 now have it live?

1 here and I'm sure many more also. Add in the fact that there are more Irish speakers in Cork/Kerry than Armagh/Down, and that they also have the honour of paying for the TV licence gives them a better chance of live coverage.
If people are not in a position to go to the game and want to watch it deferred on TV it is not that difficult not to have radios on etc. so as not to get the result.

Dr Crokes 3-12 TCG 0-6 today. What good is it asking provincial champions to extend their season an extra 2 weeks to play an AI qf that they always win. Have the British champions ever actually won any of these games? Would make more sense to have them compete in the Connacht club c'ship.
They've won at Junior and Intermediate level.

Whatever the ins and outs of it Dr Crokes gave TCG a right good going over on Sunday. They exchanged the first couple of points but after that..............nasty business. Three first half goals saw the contest won before the break.
From a personnel point of view it was good to get to see Colm Cooper, who strolled through the match dropping in the occasional classy touch, as it's unlikely London are will run into Kerry anytime soon! The DC front three (Brady, Cooper, Doolan???) were very good.
Decent crowd will a good showing from Kerry.
TCG put in a shift but were simply outclassed.

In fairness to TCG, who over the last twenty years have played in this fixture 13 times, they would prefer to enter the competition at Connacht Club stage and if good enough, be well prepared for the AI QF should they reach it.
They recognise that the quality of the London Championship and the resulting two or three month break does them (or any other London team) no good at all. However there doesn't seem to be an appetite at Board level in London for this change as the annual AI QF in London is a good money maker for them.
There is of course always the option of delaying the London SF Championship a few months to accommodate the ambition of whoever wins the title, but that would be totally unfair on every other team in London.
In general though the London SFC does not measure up in any way to a Provincial winner... and that's just common sense. Ultimately, with the group stage system in London and just 8 senior teams in total (2 groups of four), it is possible to win just four Championship matches and find yourself in a AI QF.... it's a pretty easy passage. A team can lose a group game and still get through to the semi final, and in some instances even lose one and draw one and still get through. In that scenario they would have won just 3 matches to be playing in an AI QF. That's a pretty easy jog into AI territory and it leaves little mystery as to why the London champs struggle against the big hitters.
Also it must be noted that there is a world of difference between what the likes of St Brigids, Cross and Crokes will but up to a London team and what the Intermediate Championship winners of any Irish Province will put up to a Provincial winners from Britain. These senior teams are serious organisations and as Gooch said a few weeks ago, the likes of Cross could survive in the Nat League at Div 3. They are formidable teams.
Since this concept was introduced in the 1980s, no team from Britain has won this senior fixture.
The Dr Crokes coach was saying much the same about London playing in Connacht. He also complained about the Irish side always having to travel for the fixture. To the untrained eye some sort of reform, as far as London is concerned, would be of benefit to everyone.
So what chance is there of change anytime soon?

Croke park covers moderate expenses on these types of trips, so Crokes wouldn't be out too much financially.

It's available in a good few pubs around this part of Birmingham. Another option is if you or anyone you know has Sky you can subscribe to a channel called Premier Sports that are showing a lot of the games, it's about £8 a month.

In liverpool lad.
I wouldn't know about pubs and bars in Liverpool but I'm sure there will some who have an Irish Sky Box. Like I said someone with Sky TV is the other option. You'll have fun searching I'd say. :P

This Ballymun are one hard physical team. They play and tackle with unreal intensity. This game looks over. Hard to believe Cooper wouldn't take responsibility for hitting the penalty.

Game over early.
Ballymun have hit some amounts of wides as well.
Why did Gooch not hit the penalty ? He's giving Marty Duffy plenty.
Mc Mahon should have walked after getting booked 2 minutes serried then hauled yer man down for the penalty. And to rub salt into the wounds hits a point.
Ballymun are tough side.
Yeah they breed them tough in Ballymun and its showing on the field. Crokes have good footballers but have no stomach for a battleand it's showing again.
If Crokes had scored that penalty they would be level now.
Buckley is playing some game for Crokes in the middle. Better match than first semi final.
Quote from: Captain Obvious on February 16, 2013, 05:04:11 PM
If Crokes had scored that penalty they would be level now.
And if Ballymun had put half of their wides over ?
Crokes bullied out if again by a more physical team.
Men again boys !
Not many would have predicted a Ballymun v St Brigids final.
Chokes performance symptomatic of the mediocrity that exists in Kerry football at the present time
Fair dues to ballymun. Excellent. Some heart and hunger there.
Ballymun play right on the edge of the rules but on the semi final showing I would make them slight favourites to win it. A masterful tactical display by Paul Curran. Crokes had no fire in the bellies for the battle.
Crokes probably had better natural footballers but that counted for little when push came to shove.

They were beat by a better team on the day. Nothing to do with balls.
Congrats to Ballymun better team on the day. Crokes put up a good battle ,HUbbard was outstanding It will be an interesting final

Once the hurling is finished Tom, only then, they've got their priorities right at TG4 ;)
surely Ballinderry / Kilcoo is the stand out fixture this week. The fact that it will attract about 10k crowd would suggest that. When do they ever show Ulster games?
Should be renamed tg26.

Bad recession outside of Ulster so TG4 saving the other provinces money by showing their games.
I'd say Glenswilly and Ballinderry in the Ulster final will be on TV alright.
Omagh I would imagine for the venue ?
I find it a downright disgrace that there was not one game from the Ulster series shown live on TG4. Absolutely unbelievable, given the teams involved and the crowds involved. Kilcoo V Crossmaglen and Ballinderry, all unnoticed.

Watch it on UTV then instead!!!
TG4 have given terrific service to the Club Championship, and throughout the years have given fair coverage to the Ulster Club championship. This is the first time I can remember that the Ulster club championship has been a wee bit short changed.
However, by showing Cross v St Brigid's in February 2013, TG4 have already showed more Ulster club football in 2013 than BBC & UTV have in 50 years.
A Munster hurling Final not being live on TV would be unthinkable. All Munster Finals are the greatest games that ever were. The country will come to a standstill, crime rates will drop, Sunday shopping will be put on hold between 2.30 and 4pm as Thurles is Meccafied. Everything else pales into insignificance, even the All-Ireland Finals. Shure everyone knows the pyrotechnics of a Munster final cause player burnout in February.
Then the match will start and we will wonder what all the fuss was about. As we do every year.

There has been two live football games since the provincial series has started, and two live hurling games. You'd have to be daft to infer a bias in anything there. You don't see anyone whinging about none of the Leinster football games being broadcast, it's just the nature of the beast - they do what they can, and I'd be one of those who thinks they do a pretty good job.
Oh, the glory of it!

Then the match will start and we will wonder what all the fuss was about. As we do every year.

Any idea what's live next Sunday - Munster Hurling final or Connacht Football?
Bit annoying the way TG4 are not showing much quality football (Crokes games have been 3 cake-walks really) and seemingly not being inclined to travel north of the Midlands either..no Ulster football game for example. Is it budget constraints or do they not have the rights to Ulster games or just not get the viewers or what?
What was extremely weird was they never showed any highlights of the Galway football final, which is what 10 miles from their HQ..not that it matters, it was shit, but struck me as strange.

With an understrength Cross, this year's Ulster championship has been rendered pointless.
And rightly so. Ballinderry & Glenswilly ffs......a bad year.
Ballinderry would beat Antrim.
No they wouldn't, I listened to this tripe about how this and that club team would beat a county team. Monaghan just about got over the line against Antrim last year in the championship. the one thing people like yourself don't understand about county teams is how physically powerful they are compared to a good county team. Your analysis does well for a few pints.
There is very little difference in the very top club teams and the really weak county sides.

My dislike for ross has nothing to do with you, maybe you should attack the post not the poster. They have beaten Mayo once in over twenty years of championship football, that is a really weak record, they have not won a game in croke park in god knows how long, maybe 1980 or something like that. The modern era has left them behind , like a lot of counties, some people choose to gloss over serious issues like this by being patronising , i simply tell it how it is. Ross are shite.

Firstly St Brigids played Roscommon in the opening of St Croans new pitch last June and Ros won pulling up as expected.
So you judge us on how many wins we had v Mayo & our Croke park record hmm. How many times have have Dublin beaten Mayo over the last 20 years? what about our neighbours Sligo or Leitrim come to think of it you'll probably never forget that defeat to Sligo in 2010 darkest day ever right? & for example Cavans win v London was their 1st win in Croke park for decades, they are around the same level as ourselves both are full with underage talent/potential & i certainly wouldn't call them really weak or shite like you have with us.
Finally let me tell it like it is. Mayos semi final win v Tyrone in 1989 was their first win in Croke park since 1951 & for all your wins v us,Connacht titles and victories in Croker since then it still stands at Mayo 3 Roscommon 2 in senior All Ireland wins.

Dublin are no in the same province doh but they still manage to beat Mayo as many times as Roscommon in the last 20 years in championship , once.
Your post is just another attempt to gloss over Roscommons decline from a county that could always threaten Mayo or Galway to a team that is incapable of beating either in a matter of a decade or so.
If I were you I'd be seriously worried that Mayo could dominate out west for another 3/4 years and then Galway could just take the baton , Ross are in a really bad place but ye are in denial and that makes it worse imo .

Glossing over what? no denial i know exactly where we stand and we won't beat Mayo or Galway until we are obviously good enough to do so. At underage level for years we couldn't beat either but that changed when we improved, it remains to be seen if success breeds success for us.
No doubt your interest in us will remain strong regardless of what happens in the years ahead.

If they are ever going to do it you fancy it will have to be this year. They seem to be in very good form although so were St Brigid's until yesterday.
I don't think Dr Crokes have a good record against Dublin clubs however they won't get a better chance to win the All Ireland than 2014.

To be fair, Brigids didn't need to do much to deal with Tourlestrane or St. Mary's, neither would have had a hope of beating any of the top five teams in Roscommon, nevermind the Mayo or Galway champions. It was only their movement against Mary's that suggested things were really clicking, but like Cross Brigids don't really need to be playing at 100% before mid-October/November anyways.
Certainly it wasn't on the level of trashing Salthill or Ballagh in Galway and Castlebar.
Ballymun won their Dublin title since 1985 last year and first ever provincial title, they were given little chance of beating Dr Crokes yet they won pulling up. Crokes are so far ahead of the rest in Kerry,Munster its hard to know if they are better than last year or good enough to beat Castlebar.

St Vincents v Portlaoise
Great game on TV but both teams showing very little tactical nous, i actually thought both teams are better than they actually are, Portlaoise should have closed up shop and not let st Vincents back into it, Both teams very porous at the back and i take Ballinderry or Dr crokes to beat them at the minute
Vincents should take it now, 2 ahead through Connolly. Brilliant game.
Who won ?
St Vincents, 3-12 to 3-9, Mossie Quinn got a late pt to seal it.

delighted with the win. But overall I'd agree. Big improvement needed for the semi.
Vincents should beat Ballinderry if they keep their heads, but that's obviously not a given. Other semi depends on which Crokes team turns up.

Thought Glenswilly were very limited and it was quite easy for them to push Murphy to the margins of the game. Once that happened Glenswilly had no answer and their goals really masked how much of a mis-match it was. Ballinderry obviously have previous but it's not like they've been a power in recent times like Vincents have been.
The fact Vincents won today with some of their stars under-performing is a good indication that the panel is there to make an AI run.

I would argue the opposite. Our panel is nowhere near as good as 2007/2008.
We're totally reliant on the form of 5/6 players at present who actually are getting no credit whatsoever in the match reports anywhere. And I'm not talking about Brennan or Connolly. These guys have dragged us over the line time and again this year.
Nothing between Ballinderry,Vincents that potential semi final could go either way. Dr Crokes look great against the weaker Kerry,Munster sides however all the remaining teams sides are more than a match for them.

Mitchtels have big Barry back and they'll need him, Kirby and King on top form to beat Crokes.
When you get to the AISFs match-up are almost always within the margin of error, all four sides have real shots, but Vincent's and Crokes are rightfully going to be the favoured teams.

I honestly think Balinderry are a good side. they've a lot of guys with senior inter county experience and that counts for a lot at club level. I thought Castlebar were good and Crokes have only beaten poor teams in Munster.
Crokes have a stonger panel then last season, Shane Doolan and Mike Maloney were in London last year. They got it tight enough in the Munster final in the end, and were nearly pipped, but had kicked 10 unanswered points at one stage against Cratloe.

I thought they managed that this year!
Armagh have 4 or 5 fairly good club teams but every time they meet Cross they crap themselves. Still I think they could beat a 13 man Cross team.
Anybody see the booking given to Jamie Clarke in that game today? If the ref had his brain removed and replaced with a brick a doubt if he could have got it any more wrong
Cross players think they can get away with anything. Good to see a referee standing up to their antics for a change.

I know you are on the wind but based on today's match that is complete bull. Of the Cross team playing today I would say Morgan, Finnegan and Hanratty would be regular on the antics you speak of. I am sure Omagh have as many. I know my own club does. The first sending off was for a lazy tackle. Young Comiskey is not a dirty player. Tony Kernan isn't either but can sometimes succumb to a bit of winding. I agree Clarke was lucky not to get sent off for putting his neck in between the Omagh players hand though.

;D does that not prove my point. The senior team saw they were playing Cross and decided they needed their Daddies! :D
Thought the ref was very poor and hadn't a clue about the rules of the game. He blew a cross player up one time for playing the ball on the ground, someone must've had a word with him after this as the next time it happened he played on. Clarke's yellow card was a joke. Fair play to Omagh they battled hard in the second half and deserved their win. Cross weren't at the races in the second half.

You did not see the game? 12 won the ball on the wing midfield area ran down the line off the stick over the bar, up by one in injury time of extra time. Other team won ball after puck out and missed sitter from 20 yards to level it and get replay.
Wrong game.
Oh, I thought it was a Leinster club hurling game. Either way it went to extra time and the winning score was top drawer
Kilcormac Killoughey, not Kilmallock. Kilmallock are from Limerick, and are playing Thurles Sarsfields in the Munster Club next week.
KK are from Offaly, and were in the All Ireland Club final 2 years ago.

Thankfully Kilcormac Killoughey are not from Kilkenny.
Tipperary Final was yesterday.
Thurles Sarsfields 2-22 Loughmore/Castleiney 3-11 - although the match hadn't been decided when Sunday coming's matches were put on the Board.
Sarsfields of Cork play Kilmallock live on TG4 this Sunday.(9th November)
Thurles Sarsfields now play Cratloe of Clare in the other Semi Final this Sunday.

Ken Hogan managed them ? Watson took out that day.
Saw most of the game in Omagh on the box and have to say it was a great game for a neutral.
Watching it towards the end you would never have thought that OSE were the novices and CG the grizzled veterans. The opposite in fact.
OSE players looked like tanks ............ seriously bulked up.

Sorry yes, I forgot Sars won the Cork Championship. I actually knew Cratloe were down to play the Tipp champs, so not sure where I got that they'd be playing Kilmallock from.
I have no idea what that comment about Cork v Offaly Clubs is all about :)
TG4 give a great service to the GAA. I know I enjoy watching the games on Sunday afternoon. Ok some times I am hoping between them and Super Sunday. But I always spent more time with TG4. What's coming up this Sunday? no super Sunday because of International week so no need for me to grab the remote control

Sarsfields shit in the nest again, the biggest underachievers (outside of Tipp) considering the wealth and talent they have

Which game is live on Sunday?
Austin Stacks v The Nire is definitely live unless it is called off. If it does not have a delayed start or there are not loads of injuries during the match or a pitch invasion and if the teams don't take ages and ages at Half Time to come out for the second Half and if the referee doesn't add on all the added time that people often say should be added on in a match and hence the calls for a hooter type thing like in Peil na mBan, then Slaughtneil v Omagh could also well be live. Slaughtneil v Omagh could also be delayed if Warrenpoint draw with Inniskeen in the Intermediate game in the Athletic Grounds beforehand. This happened two years ago when Crossmaglen v Kilcoo was meant to have deferred-ish coverage as their match was due to start at 3-00pm. Warrenpoint and Cookstown started at 1-15pm that day and went to Extra Time resulting in the Crossmaglen v Kilcoo game being live after all. An extra 15 minutes has been allowed this time as Warrenpoint v Inniskeen is due to start at 1-30pm with Slaughtneil v Omagh due to start at 3-30pm as above in original post. An Tearmann v Mourneabbey is definitely deferred.

St Vincents v Rhode
Gort v Portumna
Easy win for vincents today. Rhode were so bad it's not funny. Felt sorry for them as to play that badly on the biggest day of the year has to be soul destroying. Literally looked like a team that had met up before the game.
Vincent's need to start taking their chances. Cant be messing around against Corofin like that. I do think the two best teams left are playing in this semi final.
The GAA needs to start looking at leinster football before it's too late. It's unbelievable how bad the standard has fallen in some of the counties

How bad is club football though in kildare and meath though if rhode can easily beat them. kildare and meath have huge population bases and don't have the same barriers that the likes of Offaly , carlow, longford etc face in that regard.
Corofin are a fine side. Will be little in that . I can't see slaughtneil or stacks winning it however

Only watched first half. Vins midfielder Murphy (guy with beard)was excellent. Surprised not to see him named as motm in the Monday papers.
Would fear a bit for SV against Corofin as they were from what I saw "overegging the pudding "in their forward line which imo will win you nothing. Intricate passing, flicking the ball up into their hands, trying the killer passes etc.
They wil definitely need to improve against Corofin.

Gooch is Dr. Crokes :)
Good. I'd hate for him to be associated with such boors.
Hope Corofin do the business for us Connacht men and women. If Vinnies get back to CP, they will hardly be stopped.
Corofin the better side so far however they could rue the two goal chances missed.
Another goal chance with this pen
3 good goal chances for Corofin now including the penalty and they haven't taken any of them.
Corofin not converting their dominance, even the penalty wouldn't go in!
Then up the field for a Vincent's penalty for an undeserved lead for the Jackeens.
Corofin 1.08 St Vincents 1.06 ht
Serious game, Corofin deservedly ahead.
Corofin much the better side and should be further ahead. Whoever wins this will win the All Ireland and on the basis of the first half you would have to say Corofin deserve it.
Corofin should by leading by about six points at half time. St Vincent's have yet to click when they do it's unlikely they will be as wasteful.
Thought Vins got a soft penalty earlier but they were denied a stonewall one there.
Won't see a more blatant penalty all season. Thought I was watching the rugby the way the full back dived on that ball. Has knocked the stuffing out of vincents
How Padraig Hughes and his umpires managed the miss that, I don't know.
Corofin have gone a bit sloppy since going 5 up. Need a score to settle themselves again.
Corofin need a score gone into their shell
Coffin doin there best to throw this away. Ref is giving Vincent's nothing
Corofin much the better side over the course of the match but both sides are showing no composure in the final ten minutes, woeful shooting by both teams now.
Both teams look knackered.
Where is Connolly?
All over now. Corofin's All-Ireland to lose.
Well done Corofin.
Vincent's had their year, only an exceptional team can win 2 years in a row.
Congrats to Corofin and hard luck Vins. Always a big day for any club to reach an All-Ireland final. 98 the last time they were there. Not a bad aul year.
Kevin Walsh will have to do without them for a while longer.
Better team won, Corofin have been exceptional all season and could be hard to beat over the next few years.
Well done to Corofin full value for five point win and should go on to win All Ireland now.
Having seen the other angle of the incident it's quite possible the ball took a little hop before the Corofin defender took hold of it.
Quote from: armaghniac on February 14, 2015, 03:21:57 PM

Winning three Dublin titles and two AIs in recent years makes any team an exceptional team.
The non award of the penalty to Vins was scandalous really. No idea how the officials missed that. That said Corofin were the better side but a goal then could have swung the game back towards Vins. Lundy really developing into a top player. Great connection between himself and young Ian Burke.
Lundy needs to back himself more though.
He's prone to laying it off too often.

Missed the first half, sounds like from Twitter on ere that Lundy was exceptional. It's been some 12 months from him, developing into a top player.

Didn't see the game but did Agent Paudie sort this out for us? :P
Deserved win for Corofin.
Vincents a pale shadow of the team of Spring 2014. Leaden legged, listless and looked like a bunch of lads sick of football. Big midfielder a huge loss.
Think Diarmuid Connolly should be told/ made to take a complete break from football for a month or so.
Enjoyed that game today. Vincent's looked as if the amount of football they had played had caught up with them. Corofin deserved winners. Both teams should be commended for such a good game. Thought Paudie was having a better than average game until the non penalty, but as Jinksy said from the other angle it looks as if he may have been right. Who would be a referee!
There's no way he the ref thought that balled bounced. It was a monumental refereeing mistake just. Cant understand how 2 linesman and 2 umpires didn't pick up on it. Maybe they did and hadn't the balls to put their hand up. I don't hear believe this crap of umpires not being allowed to interfere with normal play. You do what is right
Well done Corofin.
Their kick passing was a joy to watch.
I think they'll win the final.
You'd imagine their style of play would be suited to Croker

Massive, to concede 2 penos early on and to win by one point in an incredible game of football, it takes some doing.
Slaughtneil will need a lot of luck to win the final however you never know on the day. I don't think St Vincents played a side as good Corofin on route to their All Ireland success last year.
slaughtneil are 7/2
Have to say both semi-finals were excellent games and a pleasure to watch.

If Corofin reach the same leves as they did against Balintubber & Vincent's they'll win comfortably enough but stranger things have happened.
Two good games of football.
Slaughtneil chf may miss the final. He'd be a big miss as he's arguably their best forward. Sounds like he damaged his collar bone in the donaghy challenge. Would be a real shame for the fella as not an opportunity that comes round very often.

3\10 in all Ireland club final for a team that has only been here once before ( 15 years ago) is fuckin crazy odds !!
Nothing against Austin Stacks but was delighted Donaghy was on losing side.
In the first penalty incident he actually fouled McKeigue first. Should have been a free out.
What s the Galway lads' take on Rockford? Top manager or just happens to be in charge of a very good team at the right time?

Yeah, Donaghy get so much leeway from referees that it can infuriate you. Granted he is brilliant at what he does. But he has every trick and when they back fire he is in the referees face. If he wins a ball he either turn you or hes on his arse from any physical contact waving for a free (and usually gets it).

Done a very good job although Corofin were already the dominant side in the county before he got there. Has been fortunate I guess in that he's taken over when they have some very good young players coming through especially up front where they were lacking in the past. Still hard to argue with the job he's done.
Well done Slaughneil, preventing a possible clean sweep of football club titles for the Kerry men.

Ah man. Donaghy started the verbals and goading with McKaigue. Brendan just met fire with fire when he got the same. Anyone who knows the slaughtneil men know how they conduct themselves on the pitch, hard and fair, but wont take any nonsense .
But I don't wanna get in the way of your disgust
Donaghy is a hateful player on the field of play. Don't know (or care) what he's like it off it but he is impossible to like if he's not on your team.
Was it not Kerrymen complaining about Tyrone men slabbering at them all the time,yet they have a prime offender to the opposition and a consistant moaner at refs

I'm trying to play the highlights from Monday on the TG4 player and it doesn't work, although other player stuff works including the full games on Sunday. The previous Monday doesn't work either.
Anyone have this problem?

Good stuff. What's the deferred game do you know?
Surely the Tipp hurling final will be on tg4 this weekend?
I emailed TG4 and they said that the highlights show was geoblocked. The live games from the previous Sunday worked fine, but yesterday's seem not to. This is a very unwelcome development, as there are no club games on Gaago. Whatever about the merits or cost of GaaGo, I don't agree with the GAA blocking games and then not putting them on some other distribution channel.
I'm only away for a couple of months but this is not good for those away in general, especially if highlights programmes remain blocked for all time.
Anyone know anything about this?

Leaving aside the issue of Sky, if I were in an overseas club I'd bring some sort of motion to Congress along the lines of requiring the GAA to put on GAAGo anything they require TV stations to block and have these less popular games included in season ticket type setups on GAAgo. If TG4 have filmed the thing putting it on GaaGo would be a simple job.
Apart from anything else if there is a regular option people will take it, if not than an industry of VPNs and poxy servers springs up.
As an aside some of the initiatives like Armagh TV might be brought under some sort of umbrella for payment and login and so on.
So is GAA BEO unavailable to viewers with saorview and tg4 in the North now?
If you have Saorview then you'll always be fine. Rights are for Ireland so TG4 will still be fine on the mini mux, I imagine. It is those whose ip number is outside Ireland that are kiboshed.

Live outside Ireland also and have a problem getting access.
I love the concept of TG4, but often wondered if the person who designs their website, and or their online access was a former maze architect in his prior life. It is brutal.
I called station once, was punted to someone else, it was like calling motor vehicles. Press 1 for this 2 for that, if you forgot why you called press star.
if you have an android device..download Mobdro...youll be able to get rte tg4 etc etc

True. Not much TV licence money coming from the 6 either.
Free State sell outs do not own TG4 by licence fee.
And yes illdecide - that was very much noted on this thread - of all threads!

Surprised to see Tomas O'Se playing for Nemo. How long has he been with them?
Just this year I think. He's teaching down there I believe.
Is he not a Garda?
Ó Sé was interviewed on radio recently, he is a teacher and had basically retired when Nemo asked him to play for the reserves and it moved on from there.

WTF would we do without TG4's great coverage of the club championships?
It is amazing to think that before they came along, only the AIFs were on the box. Now we can see county finals galore and almost everything from then onwards.
Maith thú (shibh?).
Yeah, was watching the highlights programme last night. And they had cameras at every game. Gone are the days where you had to judge a club team from a report in the paper. Now its coverage is not anything hi tech. But it is adequate and within their budget. And they do a decent job. RTE could spend a Euro or two from the savings they will have from not having the six nations on giving better coverage of Back door games in the Summer. Their coverage and highlights of Back door games have been so skimpy and slapped together for the last couple of years. Some back door games are barely covered. They could learn a lot from TG4 who give a quality product with a smaller budget.

UTV Ireland having a crisis of finding original Irish programming that will gain them viewers. Really think they are missing a beat not showing a raft of club matches. The appetite is definately there and they'd have the resources that TG4 perhaps doesn't.

Great game but I felt there was an inevitability about the result near the end . Dunno why .

just in from Tullamore. PortLaosie left that behind. Not even the free at the end but the goal chance before that hit the post really should have been buried. thought the Portlaoise no 15 was outstanding.

Still many club players around the country that rarely see the inside of a gym never mind on strength and conditioning programmes.
But they are not serious footballers. That's senior club football on view today -that's serious sport

Not many, if any, where I come from. Anyone not prepared to do the work in the gym would be told by fellow players not to bother with the senior panel. And we are not at the level of the two teams today.

You're well out of touch Captain. Top clubs in every county have well kitted out gyms and a strength and conditioning programme for each senior player. If you haven't you'll be left behind.

Think you are wrong there. Imo there is not now a senior football club team in the country that doesn't have gym and s and c programmes. Most intermediate teams also.

An increase in gyms,strength and conditioning programmes was brought into club level on the wishes of county players the last few years. That doesn't mean it's compulsory and judging the body shape of certain non county players or former county players at club level it proves club football is not obsessed with fitness as much as the county game has been.
The Scotstown team beaten in the Ulster Club final were doing 6am Gym sessions throughout the year.

That's for other counties. It certainly doesn't exist in Dublin club football in any serious team. The only nedser on view for Boden today was the goalkeeper
You still have to be able to kick the ball over the bar from the 14 yard line. Winners are not built in gyms. They're built on the football field. There were a few players on show today who were too bulked to move at pace at times.

Main emphasis should be on fitness rather than strength imo.

agreed. Thats why you should ensure kids can kick off both feet before they are 15/16. But you won't win anything either without the gym .
Jamie Clarke would be an immeasurably better player if he committed to the gym. He has all the skills in the world and if he added some power to the frame he'd be in the top 5 forwards in the country
I thought today's match was exciting due to its closeness but, although there were a couple of very good scores towards the end, I felt it was somewhat lacking in quality overall, certainly compared to the Ulster final. Some of the defending was awful. Both teams were frequently wide open.
Boden will have enough to take care of Clonmel but I don't think they'll have enough to beat Crossmaglen or Castlebar.

Well their manager lived in the gym in Jordanstown when I was there and he couldn't turn in a five acre field later on in the summer when playing for Tyrone.
There's a balance to be struck, and I'd always get worried if I hear of U16's off to the gym for strength and conditioning as there's enough balloons out there telling them to bench press this and that. Utter madness some of the stuff you hear going on.

We all say that and all but the reality is that at 13-14 we were doing circuits every winter. We may not have been doing hevay weights programs but we were doing programs, organised by a local PE teacher, that were very similar to the modern day circuit training that you see in every gym and hall in the country. This was over 25 years ago and we did it twice a week in the winter months and then we played basketball for an hour. The whole notion of strength and conditioning is not new, it has just become more 'defined'. We were lifting dumbells and doing chin ups and press ups and burpess and squats and the lot. Just because it was in a gym with mirrors doesn't mean it wasn't conditioning
The problem is young fellas go into the gym and lift weights and they don't know what they're doing, i think a mixture of both is good but we're putting to much emphasis on S&C. Someone mentioned Jamie Clarke there, he's like an eel and so hard to stop if he bulked out i reckon it would take away the most important part of his game. If u bench 120k but can't run or score what good is the Gym.

The main problem I see with the Strength and Conditioning is lads losing sight of what it's there for. It's meant to supplement your football work not substitute it.
Lads start off in the gym as good footballers then the muscles start to come through and the weights start to get heavier then the next thing the goal has shifted from being stronger at football to being some six pack dickhead or some meathead who can deadlift 200kg. . . neither of which are conducive to being a good footballer. (The diet needed to maintain the body fat percentage for a six pack can affect your energy levels/aerobic capacity while being able to lift 200kg needs you to be big so you will lose your speed!)
Most Senior Football teams are getting supervised professional training from an S&C coach twice a week the problem arises when lads have access to the gym themselves and are doing another 2/3/4 gym sessions rather than going out and practicing their kicking!!!

It's not out of any goodness of the heart that TG4 are showing these games - TG4's viewership numbers without the GAA coverage would look abysmal.
These were the top 10 programs on TG4 for August from TAM Ireland
Top 10 August 2016

3) Fleadh TV 2016

6) NUACHT TG4 2016
7) From Paris With Love
8) Fastest Gun Alive
9) Seachtain na Rásaí
10) The Run of the Country
The fact that Fastest Gun Alive - A western from 1954 was the 8th most popular programme says volumes.
This isn't a once off - The GAA coverage is consistently the most popular stuff broadcast and when you get down to the bottom half of the top 10 there's usually a couple woeful utter bottom of the barrel films. You have to wonder how few viewers TG4 really have if this sort of stuff is making the top 10.

Foxrock Cabinteely v Donaghmoyne iarbheo
Form Guide
Foxrock Cabinteely
Affluent, leafy and home to many of the country's top movers and shakers for over a century, Foxrock has a greater variety of house-styles behind its tall hedgerows than any other Dublin suburb. Side by side on the same road are gracious Edwardian mansions, post-war bungalows, Art Deco homes and big solid family houses built in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. They blend curiously well because of the large well-planted gardens attached to most Foxrock properties. Big gardens, often well over an acre, are a special feature of Old Foxrock and add to the rural feel of the area. The old part is west of the dual-carriageway, around the village centre at the junction of Brighton Road and Westminster Road. At the traffic lights here you will see more top-of-the-range cars than anywhere else in Dublin. Because everyone wants a Foxrock address, the boundaries are difficult to define without offending people living on the periphery.
http://www.irishtimes.com/life-and-style/homes-and-property/foxrock-1.258957
Cabinteely (Cabán tSíle in Irish, meaning "Sheila's Cabin") is an Irish village in the suburbs of South Dublin, in the administrative county of Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown and in the Dáil constituency of Dún Laoghaire. Once a rural village in County Dublin, it has in the past 20-30 years become a suburb of the greater Dublin area and is becoming an increasingly popular residential area with several new apartment and housing developments. Cabinteely village and the surrounding area boast a wide range of local shops, services & other amenities, including churches, parks, schools and a shopping centre.
The median property value in Cabinteely is 396,000.

To drop in and say "Hello"
And have a "sup of tae below"
You'll find hot birds there, so tenderly cooked,
If you want more than one, it may have to be booked,
There's rashers and sausages on display
Hot currys and salads on a tray
You can get phone credit at the till,
When you stop to pay your shopping bill.
So when the friendly craic runs out,
You can text your friends from morn till night.
A friendly place, without a doubt,
And they'll even help,

Foxrock Cabinteely v Donaghmoyne iarbheo
Form Guide
Foxrock Cabinteely
Affluent, leafy and home to many of the country's top movers and shakers for over a century, Foxrock has a greater variety of house-styles behind its tall hedgerows than any other Dublin suburb. Side by side on the same road are gracious Edwardian mansions, post-war bungalows, Art Deco homes and big solid family houses built in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. They blend curiously well because of the large well-planted gardens attached to most Foxrock properties. Big gardens, often well over an acre, are a special feature of Old Foxrock and add to the rural feel of the area. The old part is west of the dual-carriageway, around the village centre at the junction of Brighton Road and Westminster Road. At the traffic lights here you will see more top-of-the-range cars than anywhere else in Dublin. Because everyone wants a Foxrock address, the boundaries are difficult to define without offending people living on the periphery.

Cabinteely (Cabán tSíle in Irish, meaning "Sheila's Cabin") is an Irish village in the suburbs of South Dublin, in the administrative county of Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown and in the Dáil constituency of Dún Laoghaire. Once a rural village in County Dublin, it has in the past 20-30 years become a suburb of the greater Dublin area and is becoming an increasingly popular residential area with several new apartment and housing developments. Cabinteely village and the surrounding area boast a wide range of local shops, services & other amenities, including churches, parks, schools and a shopping centre.
The median property value in Cabinteely is 396,000.

Donaghmoyne
At Peter Griffin's Costcutter Shop
When we go that way we have to stop
To drop in and say "Hello"
And have a "sup of tae below"
You'll find hot birds there, so tenderly cooked,
If you want more than one, it may have to be booked,
There's rashers and sausages on display
Hot currys and salads on a tray
You can get phone credit at the till,
When you stop to pay your shopping bill.
So when the friendly craic runs out,
You can text your friends from morn till night.
A friendly place, without a doubt,
And they'll even help,
Take your shopping OUT.........

Rhode v St Vincents beo
2-00pm
You feel that 60 secs will kill Rhode.
They're making too hard work of getting scores. I could see vincents pulling away but hope i'm wrong.
You'd think St. Vincents will go on to win now but Connolly is the only redeeming feature for Vincents who are extremely defensive when Rhode have the ball. Neither team keeping many players up front but Vincents the bigger culprits. Both teams trying manfully to play the game to be fair but full forwards practically non-existent.
Must say I liked the Tommy Conroy interview where he clearly isn't fluent, but does his best as Gaeilge and then just switches to English when necessary. Maith thú!
Enjoyable day out in Portlaoise yesterday. Vinnies ran out comfortable winners in the end but Rhode missing the peno was the turning point and I don't really think they believed they could win it. Connolly had a couple of pieces of genius but the thing that impressed me about them was their work rate and attitude all over the park. Best on the day for me were Burke, Carthy and Varley but the Vins management gave the man of the match award to Savage. Ger said it was an accidental trip for the peno!!

I'm out of the country this weekend and was wondering what would be the best way to watch the Club Semis on TG4.
I know theres an official app but I dont think it offers live coverage internationally. Is TG4 available through KODI or any other platform?

TG4 website/app with a vpn is probably your only option, unless a bar is showing them. Not aware of TG4 being on Kodi.
I have used Tunnelbear vpn on an ipad in the past and it works fairly well, very easy to set up. It basically fools the TV app into thinking your location is in Ireland (or whatever country you choose). You obviously need a pretty quick connection and once you go over a certain amount of data there is a charge, though I think was only around £5 for a month of unlimited data.

Lads, who is the ref for this? I don't recognise him.
Paddy Neilan from Roscommon.
Chrissy McKaigue having some game.
McKaigue giving an exhibition here on Connolly!!
Impressive stuff from the Derry bucks. Chrissy some leader.
McKaigue really has been fantastic so far.
Haha!
This is sensational stuff.
What.
A.
Score.
McGrath should be subbed. Really indisciplined in the tackle and now on a yellow.
Connolly losing the plot as per usual!!
Excellent game plan by Mickey Moran so far will be some result if his side pulls off the win.
Slaughtneil look much the better team but Vincents are playing the same overly defensive rubbish they played against Rhode. They won't get back into the game using the best forward in Ireland as a supplementary defender along with 13 other lads.
Conor McManus plays for Clontibret.
Vincent's sub tried the people's elbow there.
Should that have been a red for the Vincent's number 24?
Slaughtneil badly need the next score.

Didn't even know Quinn was on the pitch..anonymous
Full back for Slaughtneil is class.
Well done Slaughtneil fantastic result built on a superb defence.

Yep he had a great ganme
Well done Slaughtneil!! Mickey Moran had his homework done and their big players stood up unlike Vincent's who went missing!!
Indiana won't be too happy ;D ;D
Well done Slaughtneil. What a club.
Did not expect slaughtneil to win that. Some scalp.
Wonder what colm parkinson thinks of that?
They are one dogged team. That tackle from mckaigue on connolly was fantastic.
What a story though if they make the hurling decider as well.
As a club and community, they represent all that is good in the GAA.
Superb win. Connolly barely touched the ball. No ball going into the Vincents danger men in the second half at all. Not pretty to watch but smart football won out.

Completely agree. Completely outfoxed st Vincent's and they played with no real game plan from what I could see. Have to say I was very lucky surprised that it went the way it did but fair play to slaughtniel. Chrissie Mc Kaigue is some player
Well done Slaughtnei. Better team won. Connolly was never going to get on much ball when 2/3 players marking him. When went to midfield his goalie couldn't even kick out ball. Great performce from Chrissy McKaigue. Dr Crokes were 4/1 to win All Ireland this morning. Should have put the money on. Think they'll beat Corofin.
Excellent performance from Slaughtneill, it was a joy to watch their football. Vincents by comparison were cautious and monotone.
Brilliant by slaughtneil, some achievement. Chrissy mckaigue...what a performance. Patsy bradley and brendan rogers were brillant as well. Some team.
Pullback by Buckley surely a black not a yellow?

Lucky wasn't a red. If someone done to Kerry they be crying about it
This is shaping up to be a very good game.
Should that throw up that was won by Crokes not have been a free to corofin? Third man caught the ball before it was touched
Great stuff from Slaughtneil in the first game
Corofin could be doing with changing the boy marking o'leary.

Not near a red card.
Point in it now and Crokes with wind.
Gonna take a lot more than a fast start for Crokes to win this one. Gooch's kick-passing as beautiful as ever.
Goal for Crokes. Going for a point but mishit it into the far corner of the net.

That's what I thought. Ref made a balls of throwing the ball up and all.
Game over Crokes have this won.
Crokes deservedly in front, like Slaughtneil in the first game they are the only team going out to try and win it. Can't understand why Corofin are dropping so many behind the ball. They've the forwards to compete in a shootout. Cooper cutting Corofin apart.
Quote from: Gael85 on February 11, 2017, 04:33:24 PM
Game over Crokes have this won.
Corofin 2/1
Draw 13/2
Crokes 8/15
HT odds with Paddy Power. Corofin will have kick in them with wind for second period as well.
A stupid goal for Corofin to concede when they were right back in the game. Could be a major turning point in this contest.

In fairness not sure they could do much about it. Just a fluke. Maybe the keeper could have been positioned better but hard to say.

No maybe but definitely.
Lovely score from Wall but 1-2 missed in previous 3 attacks. Still 5 in it. Good game though.
Corofin on top now but Crokes have plenty back in defence holding onto that lead.

Sleacht are an inspirational club
Sin e
Should be game over. Corofin caught with too many up the field. Crokes get goal on the counter attack.
Really awful performance from the referee.
Crokes have used systematic fouling all game and he is has done nothing to tackle it.
Hard to like this Crokes side, their manager running on the pitch to intimidate the referee was fairly disgraceful.
Rogers and McGaigue incredible in 1st game.
No love for the dubs but thought ref a wee bit harsh on them although Slaughtneil deserved and worthy winners

The free Sice missed there a couple of minutes ago, there was a clear as day foul and black card offence when the Crokes player grabbed the Corofin lad by the heel with his hand and brought him down, the ref didn't blow for it and let play go on until the next blatant foul happened.
I think Corofin were badly shafted by him today.

Nonsense. There hasn't been systematic fouling by Crokes at all and they play a lovely brand of football. Yes, there probably was a black card in that incident you mention but besides that there hasn't been anything to complain about. Crokes deserving winners.

Buckley should have been black carded after about 10 minutes.
There was a free Lundy won in the first half, where he was caught with a high tackle as he was bearing in on goal. It was a certain yellow card, the player wasn't even spoken to.
The Crokes manager running on the pitch shouting at the referee when he gave a free against them.
Fitzgerald ripping the jersey off his man and then chucking it in the stand.
Casey going in with a sliding tackle on a lad going down on the ball and breaking into acres of space.
They played the ref like a fiddle, they were as cynical a side as you would come across and they preyed on a weak referee. But the usual see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil when a southern side engages in these tactics.

Buckley could have a got a black alright but it was hardly overly cynical.
You're correct right is right but you're clearly wrong so I'll leave it at that. You can think what you like but I doubt many who watched the game without your chips on both shoulders will agree with you.
Very slow start from Corofin. Left them chasing the game all afternoon. 3 points down after 3 minutes. Lost first 5 of their own kickouts in a row. They were just getting into the game when they conceded a fluky goal which extended the Crokes lead to 5. Corofin had a go after half-time but missed a few chances and Crokes could sit on the lead, get a lot of players behind the ball and play on the counter-attack. Suited them perfectly. Ref definitely didn't do Corofin any favours overall but I thought he was just a bit clueless rather than biased. Kevin Walsh probably quietly happy that he'll get the Corofin players back sooner rather than after Paddy's Day.

The jersey thing was every bit as bad as Barry John Keane booting the ball away on Durcan in the 2014 All Ireland final.
The sliding tackle was a calculated, must foul this guy as he's breaking into acres of space. As cynical in motive as you'll find, you can't slide tackle in the game and you certainly can't slide tackle a guy going down on the ball. It's not a simple foul, it's one you rarely see in the game.
Pat O'Shea ran 10 yards in on the pitch and was barking over at the referee.
The high tackle of Lundy is a yellow card every day of the week.
The black card is a simple and very obvious decision.

He's a similar stature to Danny Cummins and Eamonn Brannigan, he's better than he showed there today, as are most of that Corofin team, they seem startled by the ferocious pace Crokes started the game with and never got to grips with them really. They were coming back well when the 2nd goal went in and they panicked on the line, made lots of changes and the whole lot lost its shape completely. Referee was shocking, so inconsistent and refused to let the game flow. Clueless rather than biased as was said already.

I have to say I am a bit disappointed with the lack of respect shown to Tyrone's most articulate and intelligent poster.
When a Tyrone poster steps out from the morass and demonstrates such courage of honest convictions as the Bomber does, we should encourage him/her/it and perhaps lend a sympathetic ear.

Nonsense. There hasn't been systematic fouling by Crokes at all and they play a lovely brand of football. Yes, there probably was a black card in that incident you mention but besides that there hasn't been anything to complain about. Crokes deserving winners.
Buckley should have been black carded after about 10 minutes.
There was a free Lundy won in the first half, where he was caught with a high tackle as he was bearing in on goal. It was a certain yellow card, the player wasn't even spoken to.
The Crokes manager running on the pitch shouting at the referee when he gave a free against them.
Fitzgerald ripping the jersey off his man and then chucking it in the stand.
Casey going in with a sliding tackle on a lad going down on the ball and breaking into acres of space.
They played the ref like a fiddle, they were as cynical a side as you would come across and they preyed on a weak referee. But the usual see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil when a southern side engages in these tactics.
As extreme as your views are, as someone that was at the game, I largely agree. Crokes deserving winners, but like their county counterparts, highly cynical and versed in the black arts. How many times were Corofin players pulled down, nudged in the back, restrained or impeded when competing for the ball or bearing down on goal? Maybe northern teams are responsible for Kingdom teams adapting these tactics (though Michael Donnellan may still carry Tomas O'Shea's fist imprints to this day) but I'll never support a Kerry team in opposition to any other. Long may Dublin's dominance continue over them.

That is how I saw it, it was systematic stopping of any player on the turn and referee did nothing to stop it. Teams will do what they do to win but the referee allowed Crokes away with it.
I find it extraordinary the apologists who always seem to jump out in blind defence of any justifiable negative press about a Kerry team. They are extremely ungracious losers, when someone beats them, it's never because they are a better team than them - it's a sickening arrogance.
I've hated Crokes since 2007. Hope Slaughtneill do a job on them.
A very poor opening quarter left Corofin chasing the game, Crokes were excellent during that period and Corofin couldn't get out of their own half. That was a poor goal to concede, thought Power was far to slow to move his feet. Ref was poor although he didn't affect the outcome of the match, I've never seen a ref take so long to speak to a player and issue a card, he could have added 4 minutes injury time alone in the last ten minutes for the length of time he wasted speaking too players.

Carlow were to agricultural today!! No cutting edge up front which would have won it for them.. St Mary's on other hand very wristy sharp accurate and able to get decent ball in that generated one on one situations....
Think that may be the case for this game, I hope not though, hopefully with about 10 minutes to go it will be a couple of points in it
Cuala a but too good here.
Cuala far better. Slaughtneil not on the same level. Outclassed.
Cuala and the Clare champions will throw up some final... wide open spaces of Croke might give them the edge on the day.... hard to call but at least we'll have the double header
Can anyone tell me why that fella was sent off?

Scoreline flattered Slaughtneil. Cuala eased off towards the end and Slaughtneil were getting away with fouling a lot as the frustration of being hammered by a superior side started to show.
According to the wireless Cuala have 90 teams across all grades shows what the small parishes are up against too.

Slaughtneil a bit short today, but the trick is to get back to that level quickly to learn from it like Dunloy in the 90's.
Cuala looked handy when thumping the gaels in the Leinster final so no shame on Slaughtneil today. They'll be back.

a hurl to the stomach from the tackler whilst the Cuala player had the ball in his hand.
i thought slaughtneil number 5 could have seen a red for the high tackle on Cuala's 14.
They lost their temper towards the end, ref was very lenient on them presumably because they were getting annihilated.

Ballyea will be disappointed at not turning up but Cuala really responded well after the goal.
They mentioned that Cuala's manager travels from Galway, is that correct?? Seems excessive for a club side to go that far for a manager, or does he have connections with the club??

Slaughtneil badly need runners from deep coming out of defence.
They're too lateral and they're getting pinned in their half back line.
100% a red card.
Incredibly stupid.
There won't be any cows milked in Dalkey tonight.
Cheap shot >:(
what on earth was he thinking? right in front of the linesman.
That one moment of stupidity from Paudie Cassidy could have cost his club All Ireland title.
Definite red. Mind you crokes have committed a huge amount of fouls, including a pull down as mckeigue bite down on goal and haven't got any sort of card for them. Deegan is a shite ref I think
Crokes are physically bigger and faster, but if Slaughtneil can hang in there with the aid of the breeze, I can see Crokes running out of puff towards the end.
Unfortunately, they won't have to work as hard against 14 men.
Serious amount of cynicism from Crokes here and that useless c**t of a referee is letting it all go. All the crokes foreards are not trying to tackle, they are just stopping the runner.
In midfield they are blocking Patsy Bradley from attacking to catch the ball.
In fairness, they are Kerry lads so all is ok - they are purists after all. If it was a Ulster team behaving like this they would have 3/4 yellows plus a black in the first half
Diabolical display from Deegan !!!

It might be worth going back looking at first half before coming to that assessment. I thought Crokes fouled ad nauseum and were not punished. What about incident along sideline when Crokes player took no 11 out of it then stood on him for good measure. Knee to head of midfielder along their own end line with 10 mins to go.
I could be wrong, but today Crokes were very cynical.
Poor game. May have been better if the slaughtniel lad hadn't been sent off. Cynicism won and the worst is that Crokes have been like that all along and for all his undoubted talent the Gooch is an awful yap.

I agree Crokes were very cynical. Tactical fouling, going down easily etc. My point is Slaughtneil have been doing the same for years, so it's a bit rich of them to complain when they get a dose of their own medicine.
Crokes were extremely cynical but Slaugtneil only have themselves to blame. Crazy red card. Crokes were content to get their noses in front and foul after that knowing 14 men wouldn't be able to get enough scores to overtake them.

What is your "i told you so " count at now?
Disappointed in result especially with the way crokes played. Ref let them away with a lot and many more cards should have been dished out. As well as anything cassidy was giving them bother but they had started the cynical fouling on him as well as mckaigue and rodgers anyway so his influence had lessened. Buckley should have saw the line for fouls in first hald and number 11 was at it too but doing enough to slow it down but not give away the foul.
In the end though slaughtneil ran out of steam and just didn't have as much quality in the forwards.
The team with the better footballers won but it was criminal what Crokes got away with, it was a carbon copy of the Kerry senior outfit this last 3 years under Fitzmaurice. The cynical fouling doesnt really bother me too much as most top teams club and county do it but it was the wee cheap dig, kick, boot a split second after the foul, the knee on the back of the head before the deserved red card, the kick whilst bradley was going down etc etc. and it was always when the player was not in a place to protect himself, cheap stuff.
And the other thing is how Dr. Crokes invited Slaughtneil on in the second half instead of using the extra man to dictate possession and chip away at the scoreboard and see it out easier than they did was proof of the fabled Kerry swagger is gone
PS
The Gooch is well and truly done; no legs, get out now at the top lad
Lol
Both teams were at the cynical stuff. Crokes were just better at it than Slaughtneil.
wouldn't begrudge Cooper his club medal though.
Agreed
What a bias disgusting performance by Deegan
Bradley got pulled and dragged and slap on the back of the head and he is the only one that gets red
After the Kerry player goes down like he was shot
Kerry persistant fouling
SN players would have needed a death certificate to get a free
Not crokes fault they got away with it
the ball recycling at the end was pethetic to watch
It wasn't puke football
It was puke refereeing
He can hang his head in shame

You weren't watching the same game. Crokes were incredibly cynical today, all over the field, in and off the ball and were allowed to do it. Buckley must have committed 12 fouls himself before a yellow was produced. The no 11 on McKaigue etc etc. The going to ground at the slightest touch is a real gear grinder. All top club and County teams are cynical, it goes with the territory, but Deegan aided an off the charts 60 mins of it this evening.

Very poor and easy analysis that - are you a journalist by any chance. At least try to highlight where SN were cynical. Several posters have highlighted their views on Crokes, you come out and say SN were st the same but don't back it up.
Patsy Bradley gets blatant elbow in the teeth from Gooch but no foul, gets kicked on the head with blood gushing out of the wound and it is a yellow. I haven't a word of Irish but could still make out that the commentators were discussing the cynical play from Crokes.
As for your last comment - wise up. How does Gooch deserve it over any other club player? Lots of club players have had heartbreak days, gut wrenching defeats, played a long time in their club jersey and won SFA - that is part and parcel of competitive sport.

Both teams were at the cynical stuff. Crokes were just better at it than Slaughtneil.
wouldn't begrudge Cooper his club medal though.
You weren't watching the same game. Crokes were incredibly cynical today, all over the field, in and off the ball and were allowed to do it. Buckley must have committed 12 fouls himself before a yellow was produced. The no 11 on McKaigue etc etc. The going to ground at the slightest touch is a real gear grinder. All top club and County teams are cynical, it goes with the territory, but Deegan aided an off the charts 60 mins of it this evening.
Players will do whatever they can get away with - fault lies entirely with the referee for not dealing with it.
100%
Nonsense. While the referee was poor, players need to take responsibility for their own actions. People make too many excuses for the cynical fouling, diving etc which both teams are guilty of.
I guarantee some on here wouldn't have mentioned cynical play if Slaughtneil had won, because these same people have been making excuses when I have pointed it out before. At least have the consistency to treat cheating the same whether the team you prefer wins or loses. It's frankly pathetic how some people will change their principles when it suits them.

I didn't say I agree with cynical play I said players will do what they can get away with. You wanna stop cynical play... talk to their coaches and managers
At the end of the day Crokes were the better team overall and if they hadn't missed an absolute sitter early in the first half they would have won by more. That particular miss and the missed free by Cooper at the end meant that Slaughtneil could and should have lost by 6 not 2. No fan of Deegan but I didn't think he was too bad. He was certainly better than the ref in the Macrory final who was terrible imo.

Deegan was a disgrace but was sending off cost them and can't argue with that.
Not an enjoyable club final for the neutral. Lots of cynical fouling, players over-reacting to fouls, and the last few mins of keep-ball was utter puke football.
It's seems club football is aping the worst of the intercounty style
And still loads of people tell us there's nothing wrong with football!
Or should I say Throwball.
It's all down to the effn handpass......
Crokes were systematically fouling and TBH it is hard stop that . The black card don't stop that . Slsughtneil can have no complaints on the sending off . The first hard was enjoyable but the second half was utterly ugly .
The handpass is the root of all the ills of garlic football and needs to be limited.
First half had some lovely football. Second half wasn't a great spectacle.
Plenty of cynicism on both sides, Crokes were a bit smarter about it. They fouled in a systematic fashion e.g. consistently preventing McKaigue from getting going. But Slaughtneill were up to plenty themselves. O'Leary's jersey was being pulled constantly. There were multiple incidents of Slaughtneill players running into Crokes off the ball and diving to the ground. O'Doherty backed into Payne and threw himself down claiming an elbow. When Gavin White fell over the ball inside the penalty area, a defender barrelled straight into him from behind with no action from the referee.
Slaughtneill did well against the wind in the first half. Christopher Bradley showed his class. Cassidy had a fine half and a nice goal, then committed an act of stupidity with the richly deserved red card. Embarrassing stuff here from a selector trying to defend it. I would hope he changes his tune after seeing the replay.
http://www.the42.ie/slaughtneil-red-card-3293939-Mar2017/
For Crokes, Payne was a deserving choice for man of the match, and snuffed out the early threat of O'Doherty. Cooper looks a mere shadow of his pre-injury glory, but applied a classy finish for the goal. Looney kicked some beauties. Casey made a couple of crucial plays. The impact of Burns and Kiely off the bench was one of the main differences between the teams.
In the end Crokes had the better footballers, and were also cleverer in their application of the dark arts that now pervade the game. Deegan certainly missed things on both sides, but realistically there is only so much the referee can do under the current rules and with the current attitude of players.
John Joe Kearney is a lucky man.
No one who has ever received a dig in the balls would ever accuse someone who had, of making a 'meal of it'.
Absolute dung talked by Kearney there. Typical of the common malaise within GAA of blaming the ref or opposition rather than admitting the truth.
The worst thing is that they'll all have learned nothing from it, and will be back out later in the year with the same cynical tactics and defending the indefensible.
Excellent football display from Crokes. Play football the right way. No blanket defense or negative football.
There was plenty of negative football from both sides.
Crokes were playing down the clock with plenty of time left ,plus injury time. Very frustrating to watch that. There should be a limit on it.
Have to say they ran down the clock as well as I've seen any team do it, although Slaughtneil were silly in not pushing up, they had to take risks at that stage but their conservative style is so ingrained they were reluctant to do so. As well as the fatigue as a result of playing half the game a man down after the stupid red card they got.
But i agree it's not great to watch.

It's up to the other team to put a limit on it by pushing up. No team can do that for any length if the other team push up and put pressure on the ball.

In the hurling that ff from cuala is some player.
I think in the football some are probably right in that both football teams were at a bit of cynicism but crokes quite hard to like. (Il bomber was right after all!) The ref let far too much go and it killed the game. When so much is let go boys lose the rag a bit and that is what happened when they should know better. (Yeah i think oleary never had hos jersey let go like someone said too)

One of his other posts declares Aidan O'Shea is the greatest midfielder of the past 25 years lol.
It was disappointing to see Dr Crokes playing down the clock the way they did with 10 minutes left, against 14 men. There's no glory in that and i doubt they'll go down in Gaa folklore. Great club teams would have pushed on and won that game pulling up and left a more positive memory. Doubt they will give a stuff though. Slaughtneil, for all the great things that they've done as a club this year and the last few years, they can only have themselves to blame for letting this one slip. That level of indiscipline for the sending off just isn't acceptable for any side in the biggest of games, and usually means curtains.

Uncanny similarities to Tyrone in the All Ireland semi final, where there defensive game was so engrained that they were unable to push out of their defensive shape when they needed to go after the game.

I flagged up Crokes being unbelievably cynical from the semi final game with Corofin but was lambasted for doing so.
Once again it looks like they got with the same tactics once again with Slaughtneil with little comment from the GAA media, just imagine an Ulster side deployed the same cynicism.
You say that Bomber, but I've been pointing out Slaughtneil's cynical tactics for some time and by and large it is swept under the carpet by both media and Ulster GAA folk.
In fact I was criticised for pointing out their cynical play in the past by people who then had the nerve to complain about Crokes doing the same thing. Cognitive dissonance in action.

Good news, clearly looked at the viewing figures tg4 attract for their games.
Mentioned it on the u21 thread that tg4 will show all four provincial finals online over the next few weeks and their accessible to those overseas like me.
We complain often enough about the direction the GAA is heading but I think this is most definitely a positive. You can argue that it is not terrestrial tv that has taken up the rights but I have argued for a long while now that the GAA could do a lot more to promote the club championship and this is a welcome start.

I was at it, only got to watch it back in full this evening having recorded tg4 coverage. As I thought on Sunday he was ok for most of the game, and certainly wasn't all for 1 side. He could/should have given a black card to a player from each side in 2nd half but didn't. He did stop quick free kicks too often though. Seen a lot worse refs that him tho!
As for the game, it was 2 teams terrified to lose instead of going for the win. Even after a 1st min goal the 1st half still was cagey, very good defensive stuff by both sides. Couple of nice points but not much else.
2nd half was a lot better, some great long range points, couple of quality saves and very exciting. Rathvilly 2 points up going into injury time should have killed it. But fair play to Eire Og, and what a point to level it by Mullins.
Replay will bet tight again, still impossible to call a winner.

And they're not wrong ;) but in all fairness the club football is more often than not entertaining enough fare compared to the IC game.
They seem to be alternating with double headers of Football and Hurling every second week, which is fair enough. Could make an argument that 1 football/1 hurling would increase audience a bit, but they know this stuff better than I do.
Assume Sunday week will see 2 good football games: Crokes v Nemo and then Ulster Club final I would hope, but they may go for the Corofin v Castlebar game given TG4 have a strong Galway audience. Rathnew v Moorefield will be interesting too.

Moorefield transfer policy is paying off. Eanna O'Connor the difference between the two sides. Corofin will have handy game against Moorefield in semi final.
sure Lomans have two offaly lads

Kerrry. Offered themselves to few clubs and dont live in Newbridge
Good old atmosphere at this game. Must be the Christmas mulled wine.
Lomans playing some nice football, that goal was well worked.
That 2nd goal should put the game beyond Moorefield.
What's Ronan Sweeney done wrong on this ref? At least 3 blatant fouls on him this second half and didn't get a free for any!
Some finish here!
Life in Moorefield yet. A goal and 2 points just 1 behind with about 3 minutes to play.
Lomans falling apart
Level! some comeback that.
Lomans going to blow this.
What a collapse from Loman's. Spectacular.
Some way to win or lose a provincial final!

That will take a long long time to get over for Loman's.
Who the f**k ran out and threw that free back from Loman's? Number 20? What the hell was he at! Gave the game away.
WTF it was 2-10 to 0-10 to Lomans on 59 mins when i switched it over.
Loman's were so superior in the 2nd half. There wasn't really any signs of Moorefield being able to make a comeback. Until they suddenly did. Helped by some very loose passes by Loman's in defence.
If only the county team had half of the heart that Moorefield have.
Amazing to win it without Tyrrell, Houlihan or Ciarán Kelly.
They will have to build a statue to Roli. Mr Moorefield.
Bizarre finish to that game. How did Loman's lose that..
Well that was a game Lomans lost - 5 up with a couple mins of normal time left. The ball being brought up for last free was the most idiotic in a series of panic decisions, had no idea how to see game out. Disappointed in how quiet Heslin was

Must be the stupidest thing ever seen on a football field; givng away 10 yds further out the field is irrelevant but from there was absurd. And two suicidal passes from defence when Lomans were well in control. Have to hand it to Moorefreld tho; great heart to come back, and that man Sweeney never stopped driving them on. Credit to both teams, great game

Moorefield are a team of committed die hard club men. None moreso than Sweeney. Kildare county lads don't dig deep for their clubs every time and that has affected the county team IMO.
The Moores just know how to win it and the fact that they didn't fold helped to cause a lot of the Lomans panic.
I was fully ecpecting black cards in injury time but Lonans were too nice. Mental game!

The Newbridge rivalry is the making of both clubs. Every other town in the county (with the exception of Leixlip) is a one club town and they are the lesser for it.
True. But i just think that so many more talented teams on paper don't dig in and scrap like them.
Even today Lomans looked like better ballers for most of the match but still couldnt put Moorefield away.
Murray, O'Connor and Sweeney were immense.
Attitude is everything in sport and Moorefield have it in abundance. Probably good for Kildare that Sweeney and O'Neill are both Moors.
Referee was poor yesterday. One Moorefield defender struck two players with his fist and nothing was done about it and he was also about to give their midfielder a yellow card, until he realized he had one already. Poor decision. And to add to all that the five minutes of extra time was up when the last kick out was taken. Eanna O'Connor have blown for time wasting on last free.
Very disappointed for Gerry Grehan of Lomans. His father won a Leinster Club with Ferbane back in 1986, and Gerry transferred to Lomans a few years ago. It would have been a fairly unique achievement, I'd have thought, for father and son to win provincial medals for two different clubs.
Great character by Moorefield of course. Well done to them.

Billy O'Loughlin, new DIT manager, idiot. Ref not issuing reds for strikes has already been commented on but Lomans only have themselves to blame for losing the game. Even enough first half that would have been level pegging if Lomans hadn't insisted on kicking out every ball on top of a tall Moorefield midfield. I felt at half time if they rectified that and went short with the kickouts they would be there or thereabouts. Second half there was only one team in it though, it was a brilliant display by Lomans for nearly 30 minutes. They half rectified the kickouts where they started to go short half the time but once they entered the last 5 minutes they lost all sense of composure, sat back and invited Moorefield onto them and went long with every kickout. Crazy, crazy stuff. Thought Sharry and Ronan O'Toole were outstanding for Lomans, disgrace that Sharry was booked for standing his ground and not accepting the blackguarding that was coming his way.
[Edit] Just remembered the first point of the day that was clearly wide from the stands.

Doesn't even live in Mullingar. Luke Dempsey's nephew. Loman's have better (unused) subs that are not related to him.
That was some entertainment. Both teams have a few gems, I really liked the Lomans 11.
Black card probably helped, in that once the Lomans 13 got one (correctly) it seemed to make others conscious of not committing similar. Although from the replay I thought Sharry's 2nd yellow was extremely harsh.
Apart from all the comments above about how Lomans threw it away, another one was when Heslin made a mark from a kickout when level. Instead of starting an attack, he hit it backwards 15 yards. Who knows what was going through his mind.
Great stuff from Sweeney. I was probably more up for Lomans because of Jack O'Connor, but couldnt help but be delighted for the likes of Sweeney. Never stopped despite numerous things going wrong for him! He said he was part of the Kildare team that came from 6 down to beat the Dubs, I think this even trumped that!

Three point win for Cuala well done to them.
There won;t be a share traded for a week after that.

What a great game. Fair dues to NP for coming back from 6 down. Con was the difference in the last 6/7 minutes. He took all the right options.
Tracey missed some frees today, I fancied Cuala this week as the last couple games they were under par, well based on their previous championship games

Mattie Kenny ain't there for the love of the game, Lar. How much bigger is Cuala's pick than Leitrim's? How much larger is their budget and grant money? How many of their players need to travel more than 30 minutes to training?
There's a context involved in their success that mirrors the Dublin county teams in a lot of ways. You can appreciate they are good at what they do without respecting how they got to that point.

Good to see the Áthimirt box that has been introduced on the screen by TG4 as a result of Limerick goalkeeper Nicky Quaid unintentionally hitting the ball out to Jason Forde of Tipperary in Extra Time in the Hurling League Semi Final whilst the replay of a Tipperary point was being shown.
That stupid reply in the corner of the screen served no purpose yesterday ...As for the camera angle when the ball was pucked out of for some frees....LEave it out boys!!
I loved the camera angle for puckouts and frees.
I wasn't gone on the replay for every score, but the way the ball moves in hurling makes it hard to fit in replays without missing something else.

it's hard to credit that I'll be able to watch this encounter live from very distant parts. I was on the phone to my brother last year as the semi final between these two clubs went into the third minute of added on time with Ballybay 8 points ahead. I intended to make preparations to get to the final, which would have been a foregone conclusion against (the thugs of) Magheracloone. As soon as he answered the phone , Scotstown scored a goal, then another goal followed 2 points and the game was drawn at the death. In the replay, Rory Beggan saved two penalties and Scotstown went on to the final. This year Scotstown beat Ballybay by a point in the championship with the last kick of the game. Nevertheless, undaunted I feel the omens are with Ballybay Pearse Bros.
For Ballybay, Paul Finlay, retired from the county set up, rules the midfield and still oozes class and vintage, other notables are the Wylie clann - 3 of them, there's one from the latest generations of Kerrs, Dessie Ward and Chris McGuinness. Scotstown have that Beggan cxnt in goals, the Hughes bros and Conor McCarthy.

Not a great game. Ballybay not clinical enough. Scotstown always seemed to have enough. Not sure if they will threaten many in Ulster.

On the contrary most counties would be proud to have a county final of that calibre, I thought it was a very good game a tenacious battle, given the occasion and the blustery wet conditions. Ballybay missed their open goal chances were well behid on the scoreboard at one stage but fought back well despite misisng chance after chance to close the gap. Scotstown were deserving winners but Ballybay gave it their all right to the end.

Suppose they have plenty of money so don't need to charge

Bit odd that the Ulster Council wouldn't push back the throw-in for 5/10 minutes so that the first half of the Gweedore v Cross game could be shown fully live. Not exactly ideal.

What a pity that RTE/TG4 don't have the technology to show 2 games at the same time on a digital platform. Don't even have every channel available with HD.
Crossmaglen match is throwing in at 3:30, but tg4 are showing it from 3:35 , five minutes behind ?
Surely they will catch up live for second half

No, TG4 not effected, it looks like it's a reallocation of the Eir rights which doesn't involve games on a Sunday.
I hope the TG4 coverage will not be affected, is there any definite news about that?
So far this is what has come out of the GAA's sealed lips.

I read a reference to TG4's club coverage continuing, not the NFl games.
RTE are selecting 2 club games from the TG4 rota.
"RTÉ's live club championship matches will consist of two matches each weekend, from September through November. Running alongside TG4's existing coverage, RTÉ will select their own two matches separate from the Irish language broadcaster's choices."RTE's 4 NFL games are selected from Eir sports Friday night schedule.
With the extra coverage it would be great if we got some Division 2 games. Some tasty fixtures in that Division. And some Division 3 and Division 4 games when those divisions are getting to the business end.

Ah ok, you didn't specify that to be fair.
It seems like RTÉ have 2 separate club games from TG4 from what I can gather.

An Spidéal v Saint Endas beo
2-00pm
HALFTIME
Endas 3-4
An Spidéal 0-7
Glengormley were 9 or 10 up with Galway bucks getting last 3/4 points before halftime. Last free in front of posts retaken luckily enough for An Spidéal as Endas defender too close to Cormac Ó Laoi the free taker as he barely hit first man.
Galway team have recovered from 8 points down v Belmullet and have had similar comebacks in Galway championship. Endas look the superior and more physical team. Endas scored a goal from An Spidéal keeper losing possession out the field and was hit from 35/40 meters into an empty net.
40 mins gone. Endas have hit upright and crossbar in matter of seconds apart, end up a fisted point. An Spidéal in serious bother, no Finnian Ó Laoi yet, a sub as suffering with a back complaint. His brother Antoine being well watched.
An Spideal are an unusually small side. I thought it would catch up with them at some point but they got away with some close calls a few times. Naomh Eanna just been too physically big and athletic for them even though they look a young enough bunch themselves.
Endas a fine side, seemed to have more time on the ball and stronger in the tackle. Probably better footballers also. Were Belmullet favourites for all Ireland after beating Burrishoole in Mayo final?

I would doubt it.
The Kerry champs are generally favoured in the junior and intermediate grades at AI level.

Because of their structure, Kerry Intermediate and Junior champions are really relabeled Senior B and Intermediate B Champions.

Yes i see on the TG4 website now that the live games on Saturday will be two Hurling Quarter finals.
Galway v Wexford – 1.30pm
Clare v Waterford – 3.00pm
Some whitewash that Hurling club final was hopefully the football final coming up is a bit more competitive.
Great team goal there for Corofin. Looking good so far and leading 2-4 to 0-5
It's like a different sport corofin play to some of the drivel you see in football these days. A joy to watch.
(Though still may not win but probably will...)
That tackle on Liam Silke earlier in the half was disgraceful.
Elbow straight into the jaw could easily have broken his jaw.
Hope Corofin keep going now and win it.

the tackle on silke was dangerous. Could have been badly hurt and should have been a red
I would give that defender , full back, some benefit of doubt in that it was a hospital ball and then silke shows balls and left himself quite open. Still wasn't great though.
Number 2 had to go. Stupid.
This game going way of hurling.

Moloney should got red for that. He pulled down Molloy a few minutes later and should have been booked for that.
Game over by half time. Dr Crokes all over the shop in defence and more goals are there for Corofin if they want them 2nd half. Red card was the correct call real stupid from the Crokes defender.

Jason Leonard is a very tidy player and he's not even one of the big names on the Corofin team. They have so many good footballers for a club side.

cooper shamed the ref into that 2nd yellow
Don't like taking away from Corofin who were yet again outstanding but Crokes was useless today. Woeful in defence and was lucky they did not to concede about 4-20 and Crokes kicked a number of bad wides that they would normally put over in their sleep. Whatever was their game plan it didn't work.
Congrats to Corofin first team to defend the All Ireland club title since Crossmaglen 7 years ago and will be hard stopped next year also.
Daithi Burke gets man of the match.
That's his football done for a while. Back to the hurling now.
Well done Corofin. Did Liam Silke play the second half?
Corofin were brilliant, a superb team, their football is a joy to watch.

Corofin are the Crossmaglen of Connacht.
Yes its a pure football academy. Defenders know how to defend and forwards can score.

One title in 22 years! Kerry intermediate and Junior Champions win Club All Irelands nearly every year! Surely when they have different clubs at such a high level winning AI's at the lower grades their Senior teams should be unbeatable. It's a mystery? What's going on?

How come?
Did they not win it as recently as a couple of years ago?
One title in 22 years! Kerry intermediate and Junior Champions win Club All Irelands nearly every year! Surely when they have different clubs at such a high level winning AI's at the lower grades their Senior teams should be unbeatable. It's a mystery? What's going on?
Their junior and intermediate representatives from kerry aren't actually junior or intermediate clubs?
How could that be? Did they not win their respective titles in Kerry?

Fun facts for 2019 Club Championship in Kerry...
Na Gaeil club in Tralee are junior, but are in Div 1 of the Kerry County League;
Senior club Kenmare Shamrocks are in Div 2;
4 intermediate clubs in Div 1 - St. Mary's Cahersiveen, Templenoe, An Ghaeltacht and Spa;
2 intermediate clubs in Div 4 - Laune Rangers and Waterville

And remarkably they're the last Kerry club other than Crokes to win the senior club All Ireland. Fallen a long way since.
Have Waterville fallen badly in recent years? I remember Micko giving a talk at our club centenary a few years back and he was talking about Waterville being senior and division 1 yet made up of only three families.
Kenmare Division 2? Fairly big place with some Kerry seniors
Kerry being allowed to enter the club's they do into the all Ireland is a joke. How many genuine, small hard working parishes have been denied a once in a lifetime all Ireland win by clubs that should never have been there in the first place.
How many more years will that farce be allowed continue and the media keep lauding the achievement as if it were honestly earned.

But did these teams not win the Junior and intermediate Championships in Kerry. What rule did they break? They produce phenomenal teams at these grades year in year out, proving that Kerry club football is the strongest and best in the country.

It's not easy for the GAA to step in as every county sets up their club championships in their own way. Kerry only have 8 senior clubs so their intermediate/junior winners will always have an advantage over Mayo, Galway, Dublin etc. However other counties also have only 8 senior clubs and it's not doing them any good.
With the playing numbers and tradition in Kerry, they should really have 16 senior clubs.

This would disrupt the Kerry Championship which is made up of 8 clubs and 8 Divisional sides.
There's more clubs in Cork and Dublin, at what level does there junior and intermediate grades start. How can most counties have a 12_16 senior division with fewer teams than Kerry yet they can manage on 8.Why is Kerry and Cork the only counties who play the divisional and systems. A team playing division 1 league should not be allowed to entry a championship a level below

I wouldn't have a problem with that. League position shouldn't have a bearing on what championship grade you are. You see it in mayo regularly where intermediate clubs get up to division one and compete strongly, mainly because the county players aren't playing. Once all county players are back later in the year, the same club is unable to win the intermediate championship.

Every County Board can have any type of League or Championship they want.
With 37 Sams the Kerryhoors might just be getting it right ;)

Every county can organise their own club c'ships whatever way they see fit.
Just because other counties might have 16 senior clubs doesn't make their system automatically better than Kerry's.
Some would argue that the fewer teams means higher standards.

It's obvious from results that the club's coming from Kerry's intermediate and junior championship are not of a similar standard to other counties. They're essentially taking what should be a mid table senior club and forwarding them to the all Ireland series. It's more of a shock that they haven't won it every year than the actual number of times they've won it is.

I agree. But there should be a rule that if you have only 8 Senior teams. Your Junior Champions enter the Intermediate Championship and your Novice Champions enter the Junior Championship. This years Junior AI Final was a disgrace to let happen!
What if you have 9 Senior?

Was listening to it on Radio 1 yesterday - ref started to shake hands with players straightway after the whistle.
I thought it'd go straight to pens. Draw, draw in reply and then extra-time. Would next step not have been penalties?
Seems to be different rules in different counties.
Both clubs agreed not to go to penalties.
That was from Martin McHugh who was doing the match commentary for the first time on Highland Radio with Brendan Kilcoyne.
Jaysus, he was near for bouncing out of his commentary position such was his enthusiasm. Enjoyed his commentary though.

But is penalties not the rules? Or do clubs just decide themselves? GAA needs to be stricter on this re; Antrim semi-final.

Exactly my point!
I didn't think there was a hard and fast rule on this. Look at the state of the free kick competitions last year sure.
I think it's up to each county board (or provincial council for provincial games) to decide how games are finished.

You'd think Donegal Board would have said, if another draw, we'll have extra-time. If still a draw, we'll have penalties.
Donegal Board should say as winners are out in a week, the repaly needs to be finished on the day as to give 'their' champions a decent chance against the Cavan champions.
Is a penalty shoot out a fair way to find a county winner? i think not.

Yeah, after extra-time in a replay. Now both teams have to play again Wed night - then the winners are out again 4 days later in Ulster Club.
Why does TG4 keep flashing the message "Ta ait dúinn uilig ann" every few seconds during periods of live play? I find it extremely distracting and annoying, to put it mildly, and apart from that, it makes no sense whatever.
Anyone know what the reason for this is?

Why do we not just make up the rules as we go along so?
For example, a game is 30mins each way - sure if both teams are happy, they can play 45mins a half.

I have absolutely no problem with any of that! But my original question remains answered. What's the point in flashing a slogan across the screen every 10 seconds or so?

Making Nemo look like a pub team atm
That was a serious save by the Corofin goalie
Seen about 4 balls picked straight up from the ground. I wouldn't mind but they've been very obvious ones.
9 steps for the corofin goal. Safer changing this rule. Very hard to police
What a miss by Lundy. It was harder to put it wide.

Thought Corofin were actually quite sloppy by their own standards today and still won handy. They kicked 3 of the worst wides you'll ever see.

Corofin very comfortable during the entirety of that game despite some of their poor wides. I expected more from Nemo but they were never allowed to get going at all. Corofins game management is just so impressive. It may sound a bit daft but they are a bit off their best of the previous 2 years - will be very hard to beat in the final regardless. Best of luck to them.
The shot selection by Nemo was atrocious, basic handling errors throughout, poor passes I hope this game provides better quality.
Corofin on the other hand played at a tempo that got them over the line without much effort, I'd say they'll have more in their tank if required.

Couple of soft frees for Ballyboden in injury time there. Kilcoo unfortunate not to be more ahead.

Kilcoo very defensive despite playing with a strong wind behind them.
The last free was either for touching the ball on the ground and/or lying on the ball. Thought it was an easy decision for the ref.

Check replay. He let go of ball. Was then pushed in back and fell again. Got up and lifted ball with foot. Ref gave free. Easy decision was free out. And I wouldn't be very fond of Kilcoo.

Some eccentric refereeing in this one.
To be fair to him it's got a bit messy.
This must be how Kerry felt in 03.
Kilo o were strong before Moran took them over but he has taken them to a new level.
Then he gets a black card for being so awkward. Couldn't kick a ball to save himself.

So it's ok to just run around and push people to the ground off the ball, it was no tackle and he used his body (arms) to bring a player to the ground
Surely by the book though it isn't a black??

Yeah its some Dublin side that can carry him.
That was a serious Kilcoo performance against physically stronger opposition who benefited from a series of tight decisions. It took the referee quite a while to realise that Ballyboden were consistantly taking out Kilcoo players as they released the ball, but McAuley's foul was probably the third in the same sequence of play and he had to go. While there seemed to be plenty of verbals from both sides, Kilcoo kept their overall discipline better throughout. Their defence was outstanding, with Ryan McEvoy doing an unbelieveable job for a teenage full back, and Laverty proved again that, regardless of your size and age, a football brain will take you a long way.

Can dry his tears on the brown envelope.
Kilcoo got their tactics spot on today. Defend in numbers and then break quickly from defence. They made life hell for the Ballyboden forwards despite a series of soft free. Kicks going against them. They created 3 clear goal chances with some very good interplay. It's a great achievement from a small rural club just to make the final. Corofin will be worthy favourites and although they are a better footballing side, if Kilcoo can bring the same level of manic aggression to the final then they will have a chance.

Yes, years after his involvement with Mayo he called to a local man in his late 50's from our area to see him before he died from terminal Cancer. A round trip probably 6 hours to see a low profile man he knew that used to open the dressing rooms and give them access to a local pitch back when he was involved with Mayo.

I didn't see it but pushing someone to ground off the ball surely counts as a deliberate body collide and therefore is a black card.

YEEEEEOOOOOO!! 🤣🤣
Don't think the rules are open for interpretation though, think it defines the actual acts that warrant a black card and pushing isn't one. Therefore by the letter of the law he shouldn't be black carded, but I have no sympathy for him as it was a cynical act.

A superb, athlete, footballer and leader who probably has more medals in his locker than Mayo all ireland final defeats.
MDMA won't ever kick the ball over the bar from the 45m line, but then again how many current inter county fooballers obsessed with fitness/stamina could?
Aidan O'Shea is adored by Mayo fans but he has never scored in an All Ireland final despite being selected at centre forward for the majority of those finals
He is a former footballer of the year who in his prime could cover more ground than the energizer bunnny. When dublin beat kerry in the 2013 semi final it was MDMA fighting to win a ball he never should have won that set up Kevin Mac for the key goal.
Whatever outsiders think of MDMA he can rest assured no one in Dublin will ever question his abilities

I would have thought a racist taunt would carry a bigger penalty than a black card.
I realise the irony of that sentence.
I'd have thought calling someone a w4nker or something would be enough for a black card under that rule.
I don't think at the time there was a specific rule on a racist taunt, I'd have no problem giving a ref if I heard it
Getting a black card for pushing a player coming in front of him, monaghan got 4 yellow card in 12mins last week, 3 of which were drag down which should been black cards but ref didn't apply the rules, and this week the ref giving a black card for very little.

Change in format this year for anybody going out to watch the games:
As you approach the bar/Club, the crowd will not be coming out the windees. There may well not be a statutory wee folk group playing in the corner with the sound drowned out by the cacophony of revellers. Good chance that there will not be an Irish Dancing display at the break. No green beer on sale. No free reinforced paper bowl of Irish stew and a bit of wheaten.
A large percentage of the crowd could possibly not be half tore by the time the 2nd match commences.

These Games should be on rte aswell they are the club finals like you could say the all Ireland club final is the 2nd biggest game in gaelic football i would rate and all Ireland club title bigger than a inter country provincial title.

The earliest mention of a football team in the parish of Skryne relates to a twenty-one-a-side team known as The Kilanna Shamrocks, centred on Grange and functioning around 1900 but unfortunately no record exists of any of the games played by this team. Players mentioned were Dick and Tom Corcoran of Trevitt, Jack Dillon of Oberstown and brothers Paddy, Peter and Mick O'Bnen of Marshalistown. The latter was grandfather of Paddy and Miceal of '49/'54 fame. Around 1906/'07 a Skryne team reached the final of a tournament in Mullafin v. Ardcath. A great footballer named Jack McCarthy, together with the late Dan Killeen of The Naul and Jack Hand (father of Tommy, Ja and Christo) were on the Ardcath team that day. This was practically the same Skryne team as in photograph taken in 1910 . They wore green jerseys with a gold diagonal sash similar to the jerseys worn by Meath county teams up to the thirties. The greatest achievement by this team was to reach the Meath Junior Foot- ball Championship final in 1912 in which they were beaten by Carnaross. This entitled Carnaross to select the county team with four players from the rest of the county. Paddy Callaghan was the only Skryne player chosen and he thus became the first player from the club to play on a Meath football selection. For the record Meath beat Louth and then Westmeath but lost by 1 point to Carlow in the final of the 1913 Leinster J.F.C. The Great War of l914-'18 and the Troubles in Ireland in the 'twenties left a void which was filled when a team was formed in Oberstown in 1922 by Paddy Dolan, Mickey O'Brien and Christie McBride. Players included Ben Smith (captain); T. Halligan, P. Halligan, Jim Tancred, Martin Dolan, Bill Logan, Bob Douglas, and Johnnie O'Brien. There is a suggestion that their colours were black. and amber (Kilkenny style).
This team only existed for two years. On one occasion in 1922 the Oberstown team was rounded up by the Black and Tans while practising. They were all brought down to Oberstown Crossroads and made to wipe out an "Up the I.R.A." sign which had been daubed on Charles's wall and instead paint in its place: "God save the King". Bill Logan and Martin Dolan were taken to Dunshaughlin Barracks that evening but were not detained. In or about 1926/'27 Paddy Callagahan was instrumental in reforming the Skryne team with the assistance of Martin Moore who was then a steward in Corbalton and Brian Smith who had arrived in Skryne as a National Teacher.

Clonakilty. They built that superb new complex around 8/9 years ago. Should be more games there. National League games even. Great venue.

Cheers ciarrai_thuaidh - it looks like some setup. I don't think I've ever seen a ground with so many sponsorship banners round the side of it either. The more the camera panned out the more you could see of the complex - it's huge.
Kildare GAA are streaming three championship games on Saturday. €5 per game or €10 for all three.
All proceeds are going towards Barretstown. A fantastic gesture.
Well done KCB.
Ros CB doing 2 games per weekend €5 per game. The 2 last weekend were value for money anyway - Clann/Brids and Boyle/Pearses.
Meanwhile very disappointing to see a well known Cork GAA club with the English version of their name emblazoned on the back of the Jersey.
Obviously never read the first 2 leathanaigh of an T.O.

People in border areas have no problem as they receive from 26 county transmitters.
Do they block out games from NI transmitters?
They do block internet transmission to IP numbers which aren't clearly on the island of Ireland because the GAA have sold those rights to someone else, so talk to your club about this.
Just on the internet I thought. Just ip addresses

Despite all the rule changes, watching Kilcoo/Mayobridge tonight, still 15 men behind the ball. Even when Mayobridge were 3 pts down in injury time, they were still playing defensive tactics, allowing Kilcoo to whittle down the clock by passing to each other on the 45 meter line. Get a new coach....

If the format works for them and their coach, then what odds? Possession is key in any ball team sport. Teams are put out to win games at that level.. Kilcoo won't be about at the top table so make hay as the sun shines!

QuoteSaturday GAA Live
Mayo Club Football Quarter-Finals
Coverage of a double bill of quarter-finals from the Mayo Club Football Championship (Throw-ins 5.30pm and 7.30pm). Ballintubber won this title for the fifth time last season when they overcame Ballaghaderreen in the final and their group stage victories over Belmullet and Garrymore suggested they would be a force once again, while Knockmore also impressed in the early stages of the competition. Extra Time and penalties may apply.

RTÉ2 has automatically extended in the past though wouldn't take a chance on it if going out and leaving it to run when it comes to matches that finish on the day. However for County matches RTÉ has loads of post match talk after the game which would cover the time for Extra Time anyway. Remember reading advice on the Premier Sports channel to record the next programme for all live sport that they show so it may be Channel related rather than who is providing the service. On Friday night Austin Stacks and Doctor Crokes finished exactly at Half Time in Extra Time on the original recording. The rest of the game was in 4 minutes or so of An Aimsir and then finished in what would have been the start of the Friday night Western.

Kilkenny game rules state - Finish on the day.
Most likely an extra five minutes from the original starting time in Roscommon to make sure the Kilkenny game has finished so the Roscommon match can go ahead live at the time set by TG4.

A lot of good players coming through for Brigids they won 2 of the last 3 Connacht club minor titles. Two of their key players today Fallon and O'Carroll are apparently only 17.
Both on last years Co Minor team. Ruairi F was on the poorly prepared U20 this year.
In fact they both turn 18 next month.
Lads born in 2002 playing in a County Senior Final....... talk about making one feel old :-\
Clann Pearses 0-6 each at half time in the Roscommon senior semi final two well matched sides. Would be a huge boost to the county team if Ultan Harney was kept injury free.
Pearses won by the narrowest of margins. 1-11 to 1-10 with the winner coming in the 4th minute of injury time. Poor goalkeeping on both goals

Agreed a great game. And, barring that incident, an easy one to ref, but the ref made an horrendous amount of mistakes!
The melee was a big letdown for Ballymun, given they were in control and the last thing they needed. But sometimes they just can't help themselves! When you think of the sitter Pat Burke missed a couple of minutes before the one he scored, it could really have cost them.
But Ballymun the better team. Don't think the suspensions will hinder them, and would expect they'll beat Boden. Though if MDMA and Basquel get back fit, it could be a cracker.

Just a fiver. I ended up watching the Mid-Kerry - Crokes game based on Imtommygunn's comment. After 6 minutes, it doesn't look much, but by God it is some game, and worth the money. Very well recorded stream, too.
Cheers weareros - might consider that. I know things can get a bit hyperbolic at times with social media but a few sources saying it looked pretty legit so I thought it would be worth it.
There are some great club games going on.
Yesterday's Armagh County final between Maghery and Crossmaglen. A cracking game it was too.
https://youtu.be/x-BJL1eRWGw
The crowd was badly missed at Parnell Pk especially when Crokes were trying a comeback.
How many would have attended a Dublin semi final between those 2 teams under normal circumstances?
Is it possible to watch previous live games which were shown by TG4, ie the Dublin semi final from last weekend?
The TG4 player doesn't seem to have these. Surely it should be possible to watch the full game somehow?
Match starts at 17:35.
(There is a give away of the score at 34:50 though before you can start watching it)

Paid £22.60 to watch all 4 Galway quarter finals last weekend, any other of the Galway posters watch any of the games? ~Barna & Tuam was very entertaining whilst I thought Paul Conroy was the standout performer from those 4 games.
Watched the 2 games on Saturday, great value for €10 in fairness. Hard to see past Corofin again this year, with nothing else to focus on this year I don't think that chance Tuam and MM had to catch them the last couple of years will be there this year. They're just unreal, one point between them and Salthill at half time but then all of a sudden they're 12 up and it's game over. The way they can put teams away over the course of a few minutes is scary! Barna and Tuam was hugely entertaining, even though Tuam seem to have gone back a little compared to last year, I think they'll have a huge battle to beat Moycullen in the semifinal.
Thanks for those links drici

People on the Belfast cable historically had a clear Belfast location but phone line services didn't, since UTVInternet closed down.

Is the Mayo game no longer on TG4 today?
Is it not the second game?
According to the schedule on Sky the Tour de France live is on all afternoon.
Maybe it's just a mistake on the EPG?
Yeah according to mine it is currently on and the tipp match is on so guide wrong.
Are they sticking with this match for ET or switching to the knockmore game?
Extra Time was bound to happen some Sunday with these finish on the day matches.

Credit where credit is due , but TG4 fucked up big time yesterday. 1st of labelling the program Tour de france and then assuming people had access to and know how to use youtube, other than on a phone esp. and the abandoning the you tube feed so it was impossible to watch the game in full ithout access to both. A poo show all round
thwy have the extra time problem for some time and don't seem to be willing to address it.
on good thing was the ability to watch the you tube clip from the start before the game was over.
I see Gary Rice has been recalled to the Galway panel at 36. He retired from County 3 years ago, but was persuaded back by Joyce after good club form.

Bit of a bizzare move when you consider all the good young forwards in Galway waiting for their chance to impress.
With a condensed season, there's a good chance older players will be drafted in. There's no way some players could commit to a whole year training, so that's one good thing to come from this condensed season.

Best thing for everyone this season was:
Playing games week after week.
None of this pre-season training of 4 months, then a game every 2 weeks. Lads getting fed up of training and training 3 or 4 times a week.
Lads should be playing a league - 15 games week after week then finish league and straight into championship.
Lads, whether they are U8 or senior, just want to play games.
The Moclair cup is looking well.

All too easy so far in this Dublin final for Ballymun.
This Ballymun team should have won a load of Dublin championships and at least one All-Ireland won by now instead of the one Dublin title they've won to date, but their county players have too often flopped after winning the All-Ireland with Dublin
That's not the case this year
Different class altogether to their opponents who in truth are a limited team who wrung every possible drop of success out of themselves over the last four or five years
The Ballymun supporters cheering every miss by BB is a bit much, even during the frees!
BB are woeful though
Small on Keaney
Boom
Totally fair as well
The Northside boys are sending the southside softies back across the Liffey with their tails between their legs
Corofin in big trouble
Corofin have nearly been caught several times in Galway over the last few years, but I'd say their motivation is lacking this year with no All-Ireland
They are six points down and it's into injury time, they're surely beaten
Galway semi final result. Mountbellew/Moylough 2-13 Corofin 0-12. Corofin first county club defeat for 8 years. Famous victory for Mountbellew/Moylough who was 6/1 to win that game.

Worrying about an All Ireland isn't on teams minds while still trying to win your county title.
I think that's the first time I have ever seen md Macauley kick the ball.
Some hammering for a fI also and ballyboden would beat most teams about.

Corofin's currency is All-Irelands, not county titles, it's like Kerry winning Munster, Dublin winning Leinster or PSG winning the French league
Different story for other teams
Especially Ballymun because Dublin is always a hard title to win
But Ballymun will also have a lingering sense of unfulfilment from this title because there's no All-Ireland - and on that form they would have been very strong favourites to win it out
So if there's no All Ireland in your head then your county title is your all Ireland surely?
That's one of the biggest shocks, by your reckoning Ballyhale should have just rolled over today, as their current currency is All Ireland's

I doubt Corofin will lose that much sleep over it to be honest
If the only prize you really want is not on offer, it must be a bit of an appetite killer
If there was an All-Ireland after this I very much doubt they'd have been beaten today
Whereas for Mountbellew to beat Corofin is an end in itself, a bit like that team who beat Crossmaglen a few years ago, Cullyhanna I think

Ballyhale were excellent today. Eoin Reid hurling very well at centre half-back. They have some talent coming through. When you think they've lost Mick Fennelly and Adrian Mullan, yet, after a slow start, they've routed Dicksboro.
Like everyone saying, it's a great pity there's no provincial competition.
Colin fennelly is just the worst fullforward you'd ever want to meet, wins ball and just wants to turn and go towards goal!
But had they lost today they wouldn't have lost any sleep over it ;D

I highly doubt they would have
There are plenty of defending All-Ireland inter-county champions who haven't looked that bothered after losing their title
A facile win in a county final with that being the end of the road for the year is hardly going to down as one of the more memorable wins in Ballyhale's history
Reminds me a bit of Kilkenny teams picking up facile Leinster titles in empty stadiums with their supporters already gone home to beat the traffic

Won any county titles yourself? And said to yourself, feck that I'm waiting on Croke Park!
Corofin just didn't have it today. They were actually well beaten in the end even though you always think they will come back from any situation. You couldn't say it was coming either as they were hammering everyone this year up to today. Even in the first half they looked comfortable enough without pulling up any trees.
Makes for a novel final anyway. Mountbellew haven't won it since 86 and Moycullen have never won it.

No disrespect to Corofin but that type of stat is good for Galway club football.

I remember last year that Derrygonnelly nearly came a cropper to Belnaleck at the semi-final stage, taking a replay to overcome them.
Would have been some craic if the 'leckers had beat Derrygonnelly then as they would have been in the SFC final having won the IFC in 2018 and the JFC in 2017.
Fair play to Ederney for toppling DG, mind. The last bit does beg a question though - has any club in football or hurling ever won their county Junior Championship, Intermediate Championship and then Senior Championship in three consecutive seasons? A GAA "Roy of the Rovers" story if there ever was one.
Ederney got to a championship final 2 years ago and a league final last year so not really that big a shock. Would they not be considered next best after derrygonnelly. Nice to see mcgrath get his just rewards. Poor form from the derrygonnelly 13 at the end hopping the ball of the player well after the whistle.

Had this discussion with my dad last night, I knew the CB would follow the money; Can't really blame them.
Aren't TG4 running the Galway club streaming service?
Nemeton TV (who produce the TG4 GAA coverage) are involved and I have to say that the quality of the Galway streaming service has been excellent, I've got the weekend football pass every weekend and bar maybe a couple of minutes in one or two matches where the picture was temporarily scrambled it was rock solid, a great move to just use the GBFM radio commentary teams for the games as well. Wouldn't have purchased any of the hurling packages but I believe the hurling streaming and coverage was of the same level.
Seen a lot of complaints about other counties streaming services over the past few months but the Galway service has been top notch, whatever else can be said about the Galway County Board they absolutely knocked this one out of the park.
This Corofin team I think will rightly be regarded the greatest football club team of all time and have represented Galway as our club champions with real style and class as well as playing a beautiful brand of football which brought success on the biggest days.
All due respect to Corofin given, I was roaring on MM yesterday, this is a great result for Galway football, on the day MM were the better team, Corofin can have no complaints. Their most difficult matches have been in the Galway championship over the past few years and they have made all the other top Senior teams raise their standard to try and overcome the Everest that beating Corofin had become.
Corofin were totally dominated at midfield and Eoin Finnerty took Liam Silke to the cleaners, Corofin had no one who could control him and he was a very deserving MOTM - Kieran Fitzgerald proved to be a huge loss yesterday. Ian Burke played his best game in ages and to be fair Corofin still looked pretty good going forward but MM dominated possession and did not give them any handy frees to keep them ticking over. For MM to pull this one out without John Daly says a lot for the rest of the squad, I've been critical of Michael Daly's inconsistency for the Galway team but he had a good performance yesterday controlling things in the middle of the park, ably assisted by Barrett who along with Patrick Kelly had a fine game.
Given that Moycullen have never won the Frank Fox and that MM are waiting since 1986 to get back to the pinnacle of Galway football it's a novel final pairing, hope it's a great match.

Why did the Tyrone championship get so much coverage last year and there seems to be very little this year

Put the pitchfork away
Two Tipp hurling games this weekend I believe.
Decent quality Leitrim final. Mohill 0-10 Ballinamore 0-9 at half time. The TG4 camera mant has a big focus on Andy Moran in the crowd.

Yes a very good contest, TG4 correct in their decision to cover it.
Ballinamore Leitrim champs for the first time since 1990. 1-16 to 0-17.
Most enjoyable game esp when you didn't care who won.

I cared, I got behind Bigtown, were they not denied a penalty for that ball handled on the ground inside the square? The ref was so far away he would have needed a telescope to see the incident.
That was a ballsy county final, the real stuff.
Quite a lot of kicking in it too which was good to see.

Same got behind them bigtime. Every ball mattered, class match and some real quality. Beirne was lethal .
McKeons old school long passing was out of this world (never see proper kick passing anymore), dummy solos, outside of the boot scores etc...a real unexpected treat to see
Maith sibh
The no 15 was a flyer too, like a Mark Little or Eamon Maguire back in the day. If those boys all got in shape and they all rowed in there's no reason Leitrim couldn't progress up the leagues
Mighty entertainment for a Sunday afternoon-and no small amount of skill on show from both sides.
Kudos to TG4.
Number 7 for the losers was a hard nut, just wouldn't mess with him
I thought Ballinamore should have had a penalty in the 1st half too, when the ff was through and pushed in the back.
Gareth isn't big into keeping up with the play.
Mohill 7 was Dan Beck.
15 for Ballinamore is Tom Prior.
Keith Bournemouth Centre forward for Mohill a quality player

Keith Beirne.
Is he the same Tom Prior that gave our u20 FB a hard time of it back in July?

I watched it a few times on replay and it looked like the ball was off the ground when he played with his arm. Good call in my view.
Superb entertainment, both teams going at it
It was about as off the ground as the pick up was for Peter Canavan's point in 95...
Very enjoyable game.
It might have been entertaining but the quality was lacking. Wouldn't have been an intermediate final in many counties.

That's a bit like someone incorrectly assuming Tyrone club football isn't up to much because their winners rarely if ever, do anything in the Ulster Club.

Some mount of shite in the rule book too
1.2 When the ball is on the ground, it may be played by any part of the body except the hand(s). It may be lifted off the ground with the feet.
Exceptions
(i) The goalkeeper may play the ball on the ground with his hand(s) inside his own small rectangle.
(ii) Any player who falls or is knocked to the ground while in possession of the ball may fist or palm the ball away on the ground, and may score by so doing.
(iii) The ball may not be lifted off the ground with the knees.

That rule is daft, you could argue that a player is knocked to the ground is fouled, or if you 'fall' you can legally palm the ball away!! Nuts

Although Tyrone teams, especially at intermediate and junior, are often very good. The senior teams in tyrone are very good too but just not at the level off the top clubs in the province

Or perhaps it is because the lack of challenges other clubs have in their county (Kilcoo/Crossmaglen) means they are fresher coming into the Ulster Club while the Tyrone champions will have likely had to plough through quality opposition to get there.

Horse manure.
In Tyrone, it is a brilliant championship because it is straight knockout and there are maybe 8 teams with a genuine shout of winning it in any given year.
But to try to argue that after 4 competitive games to win the county, that they are somehow disadvantaged when it comes to Ulster.....that's just delusional. Maybe after 25 years of no success the conclusion just might be that they are not good enough?
Would agree however, that the Standard in junior and intermediate in Tyrone is broadly higher than the rest of Ulster.
Such is the challenge, winning Tyrone means more to the clubs involved than winning Ulster, its bonus territory, not overly arsed
Whereas Cross and others flipped that paradigm due to their local dominance, Armagh meant nothing, only a starter for the main course
In Tyrone the main course in the Senior champ, Ulster is desert, take it or leave it
When no team has done any damage in Ulster for 25 odd years, I suppose that's the easy way to justify it; as in, we're so exhausted and have put so much into it, we're not really that bothered about it......until Trillick or errigal actually do win it and then the narrative will change.
For Cross in their hey day, Ulster was just a mile marker along the way to AI champions.

The Mohill player wasn't in possession so a penalty should have been called? Have regularly seen play waved on when players picks the ball off the ground with their knees. The lack of consistency remains

Not just in 25 years, Errigal Ciaran were the exception rather than the rule in Ulster. They had a great group players, with Canavan at his peak. The worst thing we ever did was beat them in the Kildress Gold Watch tournament as they got a bee in their bonnet about us ;D
Tyrone clubs have never counted at senior level in Ulster and that's a simple fact. They are all around the same level of quality, which is generally just a bit above Intermediate level, and that's why they never push on.

2 other Armagh clubs have won Ulster historically, Mullaghbawn and Clan na Gael. Neither Cavan nor Fermanagh clubs have won it therefore they haven't made any impression. That's not to say there haven't been good teams, Enniskillen Gaels were very strong and probably should have won at least 1, but they didn't. Mullahorn, Gowna, Cavan Gaels all decent but not top level. Simple facts.
@tiempo Omagh didn't rank us but I'm sure they're proud of their Beating Cross in the Championship Cup....

Not true. Mullaghbawn won the county championship in 1995, but they were hardly dominating the club scene in Armagh. It was their first title in 30 odd years.
Cross won the county 1996, but hadn't been in a final for 10 years, and then won Ulster dnd the All Ireland at the first attempt. But they werent exactly dominating armagh before 1996.

That Cross and that Mullaghbawn team were both something else, serious, serious teams. Even at their peak Cross rarely breezed through Armagh, Mullaghbawn, Dromintee Pearse Og's etc always gave them tough games. (I know they did blitz a few finals especially against the Harps and the Nab within the last 10 years)

The first was a red, the second was another red, the ref gave him a second yellow!! Wtf
I didn't see the first but for the second it was a blatant red and was shocking discipline. Could have wrecked the kilmallock guy who will be sore for a few days.
There should have been at least 5 goals in the match but due to cynical fouling in front of goal there was only one and the the number 2 did hid best to prevent that one too. Its time to bring in the sinbin and penalty for these fouls in the club game as we have at IC.

The first red was in the same tackle when he blattered him running in on goal, pure dirt
It was shocking tbh. Those top level games you see down south are usually "manly" it's the odd dirty stroke here and there but that was orchestrated and real malicious- he could have just pulled him down but went do do damage.
Sure the ref would be accused of ruining the game if he blew for the fouls.

It's not that hard to understand, numerous players were dropping the ball even when they were in yards of space. It's understandable for players to drop the ball if they're being tackled or under pressure. Both teams had some really good footballers but there were quite a few really average players on view also.

Enforced errors are a blight on the game. Need a rule change to eliminate players enforcing errors.

Tyrone club championship the way to go for RTE. Unsurpassed
great match
I'd agree it was entertaining and fairly open but I thought the standard was poor enough. In the first half in particular there were so many unenforced handling errors. Still a good watch though but the other semifinalists won't be quaking in their boots.

It's not that hard to understand, numerous players were dropping the ball even when they were in yards of space. It's understandable for players to drop the ball if they're being tackled or under pressure. Both teams had some really good footballers but there were quite a few really average players on view also.
Nothing here to be understood, just somewhat amused and bemused by the neologism you've just created, ie,
unforced errors, and
not unENforced, d'oh! :P
Tyrone has the best championship in Ulster hands down. The eventual winners might not progress far in Ulster but this myth of Derry being strongest has surely ran its course. In how many other counties would you get a cricket score in a semi final?

Fair enough, point taken. Not sure why I said unenforced. The point remains though that the match was very entertaining but there were lots of unforced, quite basic mistakes which surprised me. Some really well taken scores also.

Tyrone has the most competitive championship and that's a fact. The questions are will the eventual winners push on for once this year as I think Ulster will be quite open with a few potential 'new' teams in in. Definitely new Antrim champions, strong 'new' candidates in Armagh and maybe Derry. Other counties not guaranteed big favourites apart from maybe Scotstown in Monaghan. Ulster could be ripe for a team going on a run

probably exictment because its open draw straight knockout which i think all county championships should be if they have the numbers county leagues are there to provide teams with multi game format like donegal should be straight knockout how many counties actually do a straight knockout format.

I would agree with this. Straight knock out is much better. Armagh reverted to straight knock out due to COVID and the past two seasons have been much more exciting and there's always the potential for underdogs to provide a shock
Totally agree on the straight knockout. Round robin style championships just end up ensuring the better sides get through, as they can afford a slip-up yet still recover. So the element of jeopardy is removed somewhat. A winner takes all knockout is just so much more intense and exciting.
Unfortunately it doesn't bring in as much money which I suspect is part of the reason it isn't used more. I know the argument for giving players more games but do that through leagues, players don't want dead rubber championship matches either.

Totally agree. The difference in atmosphere between a straight knock out match and a League based round robin match is very noticeable. Both the players and the crowd have an added edge that simply isn't there when you know that a defeat isn't fatal.

Why train all year for two or three one-sided group games and then go out anyway? No system is perfect, but straight knockout is my preference as a spectator.

There's no excitement for players or supporters when they have to play 3 group games before they even get near a quarter final.
There's no one size fits all solution as every county is different but in Armagh both junior and intermediate has seen the underdogs win - in fact neither finalists were really fancied and now one of them will be playing senior football next year Crossmaglen near got caught in the long grass in the senior and Maghery reigning champions were de-throned.

I still genuinely think we're strongest at the top. And I do think Glen on their day would give a trimming to a good few Semi finalists in other counties too.

Well in Tyrone its nearly more emphasis on the league then championship. I read before Trillick were beaten in the Intermediate final but got promoted in the league and won the Senior Championship the following year.
Is that not devaluing the Intermediate championship?

Glen are a decent side, but nothing more than that imo. I honestly don't think if you plonked them into a Derry Championship from the late 80s to the mid 2000s they'd win a single one of them.
They're the best of a bad bunch in that county at the minute.

Ah that old argument of teams were better years ago 8). The same clowns said the same about Slaughtneil when they won the first of their more recent titles!
Slaughtneil again were a decent but limited side. Shown up badly a couple of times against really good sides once they got out of Ulster if I recall correctly. The same applies to them as Glen, albeit Slaughtneil probably a bit better at their peak.

Lol, I'd say most clubs would take a few Ulster titles and All Ireland final appearances. Slaughtneil weren't overly defensive at all and certainly weren't cynical under Moran but they seem to have become much more defensive and cynical recently, probably as a result of Devlin as coach.

I have no doubt you're correct that most clubs would take that success. But they were defensive and cynical. And sadly most clubs in Derry have followed their lead, making football in the county largely unwatchable these days. Magherafelt won a Championship with some of the worst football I've ever seen by taking it to an extreme.

As a player my personal preference would always be get as many league games played as possible, as competitive as possible, but get the league wrapped up before championship. Then championship should be straight knock out- peak for that one game and if you're good enough you go through and focus on the next one- if you're beat that's it for another year tough luck.
Clubs can be missing players in the league for various reasons, County, some can be on holidays. Its a bit old fashioned with the knockout, its alright if its a U20 championship played in December. But lots of time in the summer to fit in group games which would still have edge.

No they weren't, that is bullshit. They were admittedly well beaten by Corofin in 2014 but probably would have beaten Dr. Crokes in their second all Ireland final in 2016 but for an early red card.
In 2014 they beat Cavan Gaels, Clontibret and Omagh in Ulster and Austin Stacks in AISF.
In 2015 they lost to Scotstown by 3 points in Ulster.
In 2016 they beat Derrygonnelly, Killyclogher, Kilcoo in Ulster and St Vincents in AISF.
In 2017 they beat Kilcoo, Omagh, Kilcar and Cavan Gaels before losing to Nemo after extra time in AISF.
So, in those 4 years, the only teams to beat Slaughtneil were Corofin, Scotstown, Dr. Crokes and Nemo Rangers, and only Corofin beat them by more the 3 points. Hardly describe that as being 'shown up badly'.
Slaughtneil were probably the second best team in Ireland, after Corofin, in this period. They're probably past their peak now but still a very strong outfit.

The facts are they were totally destroyed by Corofin and hammered by Nemo Rangers by 8 points, because the Conservative gameplan they adopt relied totally on edging ahead and then spoiling the game. The attacking limitations of the side were plain to see.

We've been waiting what seems like an age for this team to develop into the potential that they have shown with the Ulster minor teams of the past..
Have they just found the key to winning the senior championship?

Glen are definitely the best side in Derry(although that's not saying much these days), but this will be a victory for O'Rourke more than anything. Glen have been perennial mental midgets, but they have a very good manager who should get them over the line this time.

They've definitely got potential but they're up against a team who've been there and delivered several times. If this game is tight then slaughtneil have a team proven under pressure and I'd expect them to come through. They have a great record in finals and often seem to get stronger as the competition goes on. I'd expect this game to be very tense and tight. If Glen can get a 3 or 4 point lead they might just hold on. If it gets tighter than that I fancy Slaughtneil to come through by a point or 2.
Slaughtneil have one truly great footballer in McGuigan, but that shouldn't be enough to beat a better all round team in Glen. You would have to ask serious questions of Glen if they can't overcome an ageing defensive side when Glen are in their prime and have a proven quality manager.
I expect Glen to win comfortably, Slaughtneil have too many miles on the clock and are on the decline.

Lol you must be a slaughtneil man trying to get stuff for the manager to say in the changing room. He'll post up your comments on the wall lol. Slaughtneil have won 5 of the last 7 so it would take a complete fool to write them off.
The big concern from a Glen perspective is that there seems to be an ingrained "loser" mentality in the club, understandably given their decades of underachievement.
The key for Glen is to get a point up early on. Slaughtneil don't like chasing a game as they don't have the quality to do it tlagainst good sides these days. They prefer to go a point up and drag the game down and rely on frees.
I fancy Glen by at least 3 or 4 points.

In fairness to Armagh county board, their fixture scheduling is easily the best anywhere in Ulster. Teams are playing in the correct grade based on League football, players have a League program and the dates are rigidly stuck to as near as possible. No postponing of fixtures due to county players and a good mixture of Friday night and Sunday games. League finished up before championship begins and 4- 6 months of an off season unless you happen to win or go deep into the championship.
I've heard that Tyrone club players now have to go back into a League programme on Sundays which could run right up until near Christmas which no player wants after a championship exit.

Most counties outside Ulster operate a group stage
They got leagues for more than one game i thought county leagues were serious
Can you recall when teams celebrate winning the league div 1? The league is for playing in, the championship is for winning. Maybe that has changed in some counties :-\

As a player my personal preference would always be get as many league games played as possible, as competitive as possible, but get the league wrapped up before championship. Then championship should be straight knock out- peak for that one game and if you're good enough you go through and focus on the next one- if you're beat that's it for another year tough luck.
In fairness to Armagh county board, their fixture scheduling is easily the best anywhere in Ulster. Teams are playing in the correct grade based on League football, players have a League program and the dates are rigidly stuck to as near as possible. No postponing of fixtures due to county players and a good mixture of Friday night and Sunday games. League finished up before championship begins and 4- 6 months of an off season unless you happen to win or go deep into the championship.
I've heard that Tyrone club players now have to go back into a League programme on Sundays which could run right up until near Christmas which no player wants after a championship exit.
It won't be 2 days before someone on here says the players want more fitbaw

More football.during the summer months. Maybe you prefer to train.for.months on.end with no games
Conor glass probably a big factor I imagine. Also they have won nothing yet but would be good to see a new name in Derry for a while.
Meanwhile in the other 31 Counties.....
What did ye think of the Ros Co Final that was on TG4 an Dómhnach seo caite?
Glen will give Ulster a fair rattle this year, though they're on the same side as Kilcoo so that won't be easy navigated. An Ulster final between Glen and Clann Eireann will be a ding dong battle. 2 up and coming under age set ups finally making the break through. A new name on the Seamus McFerran cup this year methinks....

Yeah Cross have no chance and their underage set up is useless too.... The younger lads only all have 2 or 3 county minors and most of them have county u21 medals, couple of Ulster minor medals there as well. Not to mention the wheelbarrows full of senior county, Ulster and All Irelands the older lads have.
Comfortable wins in the Dublin semi finals for St Judes and Kilmacud (over Lucan and Ballyboden respectively).
Crokes will be favs for the final, but Judes have a genuine chance.
Mannion man of the match for Crokes and looked very sharp. Still non-commital on whether he'll go back with the Dubs next year.
Man of the match for Judes was their big number 9, Pat Spillane Junior. Yes, the son! Dominant display at midfield and kicked 3 long range points to boot. Never represented Kerry at underage, and was usually a sub for Templenoe. Played for Judes second team last year, but progressed to the first team during the course of this year. One swallow doesn't make a summer, but he looked a proper player and it will be very interesting to see how gets on in the final. (He came across very well in the after match interview).
Big Spillane looked a tidy player alright, maybe a late developer. That said I found both semi-finals extremely boring, one-sided affairs which is a shame.
Ulster could be wide open, potential new winners in Derry & Antrim, one of the big hitters will be gone in the first round (Donegal v Derry) along with Down & Monaghan winners on that side of the draw, this is primed for a Crossmaglen assault from the long grass. Clann Éireann have every chance in the Armagh final but they just won't have the know how, experience or cuteness (and sobriety) to cut it at this level in November. The fact Bcb is talking the opposition up in a thread about Ulster means Cross have one eye on it already
Donegal County final today, should be plenty of scores in that ::)
That semi final was grim.
I assume these are picked well in advance. Surely the derry county final would have been a better pick today

More Gaeltacht in Donegal, and they usually look after that cohort which is fair enough
It must be easy being a ref in these big hurling matches. Do not blow the whistle unless for a push on the back or near decapitation ;D
TG4 done the other 31 counties in Ireland a service by not showing the Derry final, brutal stuff glen are a great side but slaughtneil are brutal, zero interest in attacking just trying to contain glen and letting them have the ball even when 6/7 points behind.
The Donegal final at this stage is every bit as boring as Donegal people in general.... ;D

Corofin weren't really even favourites for today's game locally so I think that's lazy on behalf of those who decide those odds! MM much the better team today and in fact reminded me of the way Corofin won many of their games in previous years. Fair play to them, they're a long time waiting for this one and have come close many times. This corofin team is definitely in transition, no Gary
Sice, Ian Burke today and Mike Farragher didn't get much game time. No doubt they made hay while they had the players but still will be there or thereabouts with the young talent they have coming through.

M/M worth every point of their winning margin and more, dominated the match for long periods. Corofin midfield which has been such a huge part of their incredible run was destroyed and Power had nowhere to go with kickouts in the first half, excellent game planning and execution from M/M.
Interesting to see how many of the winning team will be involved with the county, I'm a huge fan of John Daly, unless he's injured again it will be inexplicable if he's not CHB for Galway next year. Awful shame his brother hasn't a bit more pace, it's clearly held him back making it at IC level, he's fantastic at club level though.

I thought Corofin looked like a team with little to no hunger about them especially in the first half.
The key period was the first 20 minutes when MM went 7 points to 1 up. This 6 point difference ended up being the winning margin.
Around this stage TG4 put up the scoring opportunities stats and MM were 7 from 9 while Corofin were 1 from 1.
Later on in the second half Corofin were 4 from 4 in terms of scoring opportunities.
Pretty much all of the Corofin players were 2nd best on the day - was there any Corofin player who did better than his opponent?
Corofin were below par today but MM did a very good job of taking advantage of it.
If anyone was due to get a win over Corofin it was surely them.

Unreal win considering their display in the first half
Dreadful game. Crokes especially seemed to have a policy that players weren't allowed to shoot unless they were Paul Mannion or they were inside 20 metres. Very lucky to get away with that.
Not as bad as the daylight robbery Crokes inflicted on Na Fianna in the hurling final, but Judes will be very sore about letting this one slip away.

Thought I heard that..
Crokes have some set up in fairness to them, to have as many senior teams at both codes with virtually no crossovers is brilliant, for a manager and players not dealing with dual players makes preparation so much easier. not saying the lads only hurl, they may play at other levels within the club.

Two cracking games, Ballygunner are going for sometime now at this level, I don't think Ballyea without Tony Kelly will be able for them.
The other game is a coin toss, just when you thought Thurles were winning Loughmore came again.
What is up with Kelly? Long time missing. Gary Brennan handy hurler too.
I hope the McGraths do their double.

Tony got operation on ankle week before county semi final. Won't be back until next year.
Ah right thanks. Some achievement for a small club to win a county championship without a player of his quality. I suspect ballygunner will be too much though.
What exactly does constitute a foul in hurling these days ;D
(Definitely not throwing the ball anyway)
Don't know what the GAA bother with filling up the TO with playing rules for hurling ::)
As for having Refs.... they are just timekeepers/scorekeepers.
Both games were a million times better that the pish that was put up lately on the football!!
As for the the rules, the ref is consistent with applying them to both teams, so I wouldn't worry too much.
Fantastic result in Tipp which shows the best qualities of our games.
We grow up play both codes of our traditional games and this is the pinnacle!!!

So many games on today!! Looking forward to both these games, fancy Ballygunner, they seem to be on a mission and for me Ballyhale have used up so many of their lives during this year's campaign, but they have it in their locker to click.
Kilcoo should, should win today, though I didn't fancy Kilmacud to get to the final they have a punchers chance, maybe another draw and win in extra time for Kilcoo but I feel it's their year
I'm not going to say I told you so!!
Kilcoo to win by 4 or more points 9/4 is a great bet. The dubs crowd are missing Padraig Mannion and have no other forwards.
Kilcoo have shit the bed here
I don't know how Laverty messed up the goal chance. Some other very bad wides for Kilcoo.
That defensive crap only get you so far, how about coming out and try to play fball.
Dirty play already from Kilcoo here
Kicoo with a lot of chances here.
I'll call it now.. Game over for Kilcoo
2 points in 30mins that style of fball work OK when u ahead, you need change your game plan when u trailing by 6pts.
A very controlled display by Kilmacud Crokes much the side at defending and attacking and good value for their 6 point lead.
Kilcoo have had a mare in that 1st half.
Kilcoo have been shockin in front of goals. Should have at the very least 1-6 on the board.
That's shocking poor from Kilcoo. The short passing shite giving Kilmacud all the time in the world to get back (after pressing the kick out) and choke up the defence. Kilmacud will have expended serious energy there but hard to see a huge turnaround.
The game getting away from Kilcoo alot of scorable chances missed. Kilmacud happy to invite them up the field and wait to turn them over and hit them quickly on the counter attack.
Kilmacud are patiently building and taking their chances, Kilcoo are missing their final shits.
Kilmacud Crokes have been strong defensively on route to this final, they force the opposition to shoot under pressure or from areas they wouldn't normally. Kilcoo need to keep the heads and improve their decision making and shot selection 2nd half.
Nightmare 1st half for Kilcoo, game looks gone already
A quick goal for Kilcoo could turn the tide. They definitely have the players to get back into this game. Crokes have been excellent so far.
Great goal line clearance that looked like it was going to be a certain goal fot Kilmacud.
Should've been game over there. Great defending.
2nd half similar pattern to the first half.
It is quite surprising how far off the pace kilo are. Kilmacaud in front for every ball and just look fitter, stronger and faster all over.
This is without mannion too.
That will make it interesting!!
Goal for Kilcoo from a mis hit 45. Game on 0-9 to 1-4 Kilmacud lead 46 minutes played.
Will that go down as an own goal or for the Kilcoo goalkeeper?
Since when have Gaa refs done the thing soccer refs do to indicate the player got the ball??
Kilcoo have it. 4/1 at HT. Stuck 20 on it.
Crokes no score in 20 minutes. No forwards.
Never ever see. The goal, jumping bck and forth with the rubgy
2 minutes to play Kilmacud 0-10 Kilcoo 1-6
The sides are level. 4 minutes of injury time to play.
FT 1-7 to Kilcoo. Like Kilcoo last AI final they have extra time.
Very poor standard for a club final

Crokes give away a awful goal along with missing a sitter if a goal. Kilcoo looked alot better 2nd half. Playing 2 previous extra time games may benefit them.If Mannion had been playing the game been long over.
That goal save by Kilcoo number 5 was incredible piece of defensive work.
Kilcoo have momentum. Tom Fox going off has taken a bit of sting out of Kilmacud I think.
All Ireland's so hard to win.
The hurling was fantastic

It's not like Crokes missed a load of chances that Mannion would have scored. It was great defending to keep that Crokes goal out.
Why dafuq were Crokes fans booing Kilcoo for keep ball when their own team was at exact same....
First time a head 10 minutes into extra time that's a 7 point turn around for Kilcoo it didn't last long though.

Half time in extra time Kilmacud Crokes 0-11 Kilcoo 1-8.
Two point lead for Kilmacud. 2 mins to play.
Kilcoo spent about 5/6 minutes holding possession, going nowhere, one misplaced pass and Crokes attack and score from a free
Goal for Kilcoo in injury time. Amazingly they lead by 1.
FT Kilcoo 2-8 Kilmacud Crokes 0-13. Congrats to Kilcoo, without stating the obvious the goals was huge in that victory
Eugene Branagan is some player.
Poorest team to win an All Ireland club in a long time.
Congrats to Kilccoo and Mickey Moran. Well deserved.
Unbelievable, incredible never seen anything like it in my life boys.
Well done Kilcoo. Can't help but feel that was an undeserving victory, but maybe they just won playing really poorly.
Smash and grab! Best team lost but only themselves to blame for the way they let that last goal in. Kilmacud have done their fair share of robbing games in the recent past, so bound to go the other way eventually!
Congrats Kilcoo
Best team lost but kilcoo always kept themselves in it and gave themselves that chance. Kilcoo just looked to be having one of those days with even laverty giving the ball away. Still a dogged dogged team and you always have a chance with that attitude.

Dunno about them being the best team, half way through ET they had scored 2pts I think since HT.
Great ball in for the goal whoever it was. Fair play to them. Turgid stuff but they wont give a jot. Great ending
Winning the All Ireland final without playing that well offensively and hoynevalley trying his best to jinx Kilcoo is good going. A badly needed boost for Down football.
That will be hard to stomach for Kilmacud but personally I am so delighted for Mickey Moran ,
Kilcoo have been in some photo finishes the whole Championship. Was there ever a team to win an All Ireland with so many draws and extras times I'd love to know.
They should have been a few points up early on but had some bad missis but over the course of the game they clawed their way back.
So impressive to see small parishes winning the All Ireland a great day for the neutrals.
Quote from: clarshack on February 12, 2022, 07:08:13 PM
Incredible from Kilcoo and they deserved it.
With their shot selection / execution for large periods and a few of their bigger hitters not showing up, the fluke goal, they definitely didn't deserve it, but deserve has nothing to do with it. They won and that's the main thing.
Great win; dug out the victory despite not playing well. Well-deserved
Very poor quality contest, Kilmacud dominated until a freak Kilcoo goal then they went into their shell and Kilcoo grew in belief. They then lost the game for a second time by overplaying the ball in their own defence and Kilcoo capitalised in dramatic fashion. The ultimate smash and grab but Kilcoo won't care one jot. It's a great achievement for a small rural club, they have dominated Down football for a decade and more recently Ulster club football. Now they have finally reached the pinnacle and it was well deserved on their cumulative efforts even if it was a poor display on the day
Well done Kilcoo. A never give up attitude - and perhaps the difference was the managers.
So many games on today!! Looking forward to both these games, fancy Ballygunner, they seem to be on a mission and for me Ballyhale have used up so many of their lives during this year's campaign, but they have it in their locker to click.
Kilcoo should, should win today, though I didn't fancy Kilmacud to get to the final they have a punchers chance, maybe another draw and win in extra time for Kilcoo but I feel it's their year
I'm not going to say I told you so!!
Unbelievable finishes to both finals today!
Frantic end to both full and extra time. Kilcoo played really poorly but still managed to get over the line.
For their part, Kilmacud definitely had their homework done on Kilcoo and were able to mostly nullify some of Kilcoo's key attackers.They should have won.
Kilcoo won't give a sh#te what anyone thinks of them. They've been aiming for this for a long time and personally, i thought with the all Ireland club champiinship being cancelled last year, that their chance had gone.
No way. They are hard bate.
Kilcoo missed so much stuff in the first 15 minutes. They shouldn't have needed the flukey goal to keep them in it. Fair play to them for their never say die attitude. When Kilmacud went two points ahead I was so sure it was over.
Well done to Kilcoo. Far from their best but even when other teams would have folded they kept at it. Everything seemed to be going wrong for them in the first half and up until the goal - lucky yes but you make your own luck. Kilmacud didn't turn the screw and feel a bit for their goalie.
Kilamacud needed to remain calm when 2 points ahead in the second half of extra time, but the goalie booted the ball upfield to nobody in particular and Kilcoo came back down for the goal.
It is possible to imagine that Mannion might have got Kilamacud another point, had he been available.
The more you play/train the luckier you get, have it recorded will watch second half, but first half thought they were dead and buried
Well done to Kilcoo.

Thought the same myself. Must have been because it went to extra time and they were already over the scheduled time? Not sure how many would have preferred coverage to continue vs watch the next scheduled show
Well Done Kilcoo.....didn't play to full potential today....but you's kept going and got over the line. Eugene Brannigan had a great game once again!!

what a load of crap.
Name one as poor.
Poor teams don't win their county championship never mind provincial or all Ireland.
Labelling them as the poorest team to win an AI is only someone's opinion but it means nothing. It's not easy winning county championships never mind provincial or All Ireland's and Kilcoo have been remarkably consistent for the last decade. They didn't play well today but still found a way to win and they have earned the right to call themselves the best club team in Ireland.
I'll be honest in saying that I've never liked their style of football as I'm not a fan of the running, defend in numbers, low risk possession based game. Most of their matches have been a grind to watch but in terms of making the most of the resources available they have squeezed every last drop out of themselves. The team is superbly conditioned and is greater than the sum of its parts and they have now created a legacy for the next generation.
Bollox. Fair play to Kilcoo.

Was it 9-2 at one point ?
Kilmacud were definitely the better team today. The turning point was when they butchered a goal chance to go 9 ahead in the second half. Kilcoo showed great resilience though but the first goal was pure luck.You kind of had a feeling their name was on the cup at that stage. Kilcoo are a very good side but I have to confess that I really felt for the Kilmacud lads as they'd played so well and overall IMO were a much better team.

They missed a world of chances in the first half. They are an excellent team that can play anyway no matter what tactics the opposition use. They got to another final recently too so shows it's no fluke.

The better team sees out a 7 point lead con football, a poor team allows a team to claw that back.

That worst team ever shit grinds my gears. Theyre tough to watch at times but them 3 johnstons and laverty as good a unit as youd want to meet at club level with 2 branigans in particular never stop

So in conclusion, the All Ireland senior club final was played between two poor teams. There's a hell of alot of clubs wish they were as poor as Crokes and Kilcoo!

At the end of the 'game' it was level. Kilmacud ' the best team' allowed the worst team to ever win the all Ireland club final to get back to draw the game, then the best team won out

Kilcoo should, should win today, though I didn't fancy Kilmacud to get to the final they have a punchers chance, maybe another draw and win in extra time for Kilcoo but I feel it's their year
I'm not going to say I told you so!!

13/2 for the draw.... Backed Ballygunner and Kilcoo for a win but on bet365 they allow extra time😂
Enthralling game. To say kilmacud were the best team yet they only scored 4 pts I think from ht to end of et. Kilcoo yes a fortunate goal from a 45 but they got the win playing as poor as I've ever seen and they are fitting all Ireland champions. A section of kilmacud fans booing frees and cheering misses was uncalled for. But they were quiet when the cup was being lifted. Congrats Kilcoo, All Ireland champions
Very little between the 2 teams. Kilcoo really struggled to get into the game and were matched by Kilmacuds work rate. They were lucky to stay in the game during normal time but I genuinely felt that they would step on in extra time. Fair play to Kilmacud they continued to match them and were a better 'football' team.
The difference between the teams was decision making at key moments. The keeper should never have been out there. He had notions about what he could do but he's no Beggan or Morgan. He should have stayed on the 21 to be an outlet to play the ball back to. By going out to take the ball and then try to burst through where it had just come from he limited his options hence why he hoofed it. Even then Kilmacud had options. I was shouting at the telly for someone to take a card and pull the Kilcoo man down. It would have made no odds in the general run of the game but would have won them an AI. They didn't have the mindset or composure. Once Kilcoo got the goal there was never going to be another real chance for Kilmacud. Kilcoo closed the game out, masters of it.
As for them being the worst team to win it that's a pile of nonsense. They were lucky yesterday to win it but you don't get to an AI final if you're not good. It's actually an insult to the teams they have beaten. They won it on merit and congratulations to them.

I think its very unfair to say Kilmacud butchered a goal chance to go 9 ahead. Instead, I thought it was remarkable piece of defending from Rooney, 100% committed and possibly the biggest turning point of the game, bar the last minute goal obviously.

And who knows what might have happened had Laverty took his goal chance early In 1st half.
IF.....
A great day for dramatic finishes yesterday.
Congrats to both winners, nice to see AIs going to Waterford and to a small rural Club.

I agree it was brilliant defending. It's easy in hindsight but that last pass probably wasn't needed as it was a bit 50/50. Kilmacud were so much on top at that stage and if the goal had gone in I don't think kilcoo could've come back. You're right to say it was a turning point as it gave kilcoo a great lift.

Probably should have used the 'pass' as a decoy and left himself with an open goal. Faked the pass and the keeper and defender would have followed for a split second then buried into an open net. Hindsight is 20/20. I'd say if Kilmacud had gone 9 up at that stage it would have been game over but they didn't and it wasn't

Congratulations to Kilcoo. They've put in a serious effort over the years and they've got their reward. Especially pleased for Mickey Moran. He's been the bridesmaid in a few finals. The handpass game plays to their strengths - they're not packed with big men up front. I haven't seen much of them this year, but personally I find the constant recycling of the ball and determination not to kick it hard to watch.There was a passage of play yesterday where they were 2 down I think in extra time, chasing the game and they played the ball along their backline, side to side and back, going nowhere, for about 2 minutes. They'll argue that it's better to keep the ball, but surely a bit more positivity to play the forward pass was needed. They got the goal in the end, so it's neither here nor there I suppose, but on another day it would have been a very frustrating way to go out.

I'm not Tony Ferron ! He was deadly for predictions after the game! Backed the draw on its own, backed the win double but Bet365 pay put on a result 'push' whatever that means. 13/2 the draw paid £60 for £8
Sure who'd have predicted that amount of draws last weekend? Crazy results
Well done Kilcoo, well deserved although that's as poor as I've ever seen them play, the midfielder Ward missed 2 handy enough shots and Laverty missed plenty as well, plus the goal chance.
You'd be sick if you were a Kilmacud man, but absolutely criminal defending being 2 up like that and conceding a soft goal, foul the man out the pitch and the games over.
Kilcoo are far from the poorest team to ever win it, took Corofin who many rate as one of the best ever to extra time 2 years ago and have only gotten better. They'll be there or thereabouts next year as well.
Kieran Donaghy in a recent podcast said that there was a swirling wind at the canal end of Croke Park.it was harder to judge your shot, as opposed to the hill 16 end.
Eugene Branigan said that Croke Park is not just another field and that it felt very different. That might explain a little why both teams only scored two points into the canal end yesterday. Kilcoo missed alot of scorable chances in the first 15 minutes or so. The scoreboard didn't reflect the run of play at that point.
Croke Park factor really is a thing. Kilmacud had loads of experience playing there, so it makes Kilcoos victory a lot more admirable.
All the stick Cavanagh got a few years back for 'that' tackle on McManus, he ended up on the winning side that day because of it. I can't for the life of me understand why Shealin Johnstone wasn't fouled in that last play on Saturday. If ever there was a stage to 'win at all costs'
In saying that, the run and kick pass from Johnstone was brilliant to create the goal. Just can't believe he was allowed to.

Agreed. You could guarantee if the shoe was on the other foot Kilcoo would have made the foul.

The shoe actually was on the other foot a minute later. Kilmacud won the kick out and the Kilcoo sub and another basically wrapped the Kilmacud man up in a tackle. Then when Brannigan won the ball that came in and got it out to the sub, 23 I think, the sub ran with the ball, checked where the Crokes man was, ran across him on the solo and got his heel clipped. Free kick, time wasted, game over. Game intelligence, awareness and winning mentality. A microcosm of the difference between winning an losing.
Yes there is honesty in the game and we all give off about cynical fouling, but there is always a point when it has to be brought in to win something like this.
You'd hate to be on the end of it or in this case not carrying it out as a player, a bit like Giggs running through and winning v Arsenal lol ;)

I think they would have if they could have, but For me that's what distinguishes Kilcoo and won them the All-ireland - high level of skill , pace , evasion , they've been avoiding tackles all year. That coupled with several kilmacud players cramping because they couldn't live with kilcoo's relentless intensity to the end. A fresher , faster, more skilful Johnston , did the damage when it counted most. People talk about Kilcoo's never say die attitude on the day, and that's important , but equally their decades' long commitment to developing top quality skills and athleticism , means that not only have they the attitude, they've the tools to do the business when it counts. A bit like Ballygunner earlier in the day, blood and thunder only gets you so far, you've got to have the tools to finish the job. What a brilliant day's sport .

Yes, it is a win at all costs attitude that Kilcoo have not just picked up overnight, it is a learned practice over years. I think they may have actually been a lot worse for it before Mickey Moran came in. Another example of that 'cuteness' was the free which Laverty bought when they were 5 or 6 points down when he grabbed the Kilmacud man by the arm and pulled himself down. Anybody that has watched Laverty over the years would have seen that coming but it still worked for him on the biggest day in the club calendar and they got a score from it. Its difficult to be puritanical about it when it's your own team involved but it's not what you want to see as a neutral.
I remember the Dubs systematically grabbing the Mayo players to the ground to win an AI title a few years back when they were a point up with a minute to go. The winners write the script.

And yet, without the fluke goal / Mannion..... Kilmacud's pace, skill etc was the deciding factor. Ulster winners at club intermediate, senior, County minor and senior. Some going!

I think they would have if they could have, but For me that's what distinguishes Kilcoo and won them the All-ireland - high level of skill , pace , evasion , they've been avoiding tackles all year. That coupled with several kilmacud players cramping because they couldn't live with kilcoo's relentless intensity to the end. A fresher , faster, more skilful Johnston , did the damage when it counted most. People talk about Kilcoo's never say die attitude on the day, and that's important , but equally their decades long commitment to developing top quality skills and athleticism , means that not only have they the attitude, they've the tools to do the business when it counts. A bit like Ballygunner earlier in the day, blood and thunder only gets you so far, you've got to have the tools to finish the job. What a brilliant day's sport .
And yet, without the fluke goal / Mannion..... Kilmacud's pace, skill etc was the deciding factor. Ulster winners at club intermediate, senior, County minor and senior. Some going!
Not county minor

Go to 1min 45secs of that video and tell me if the roles were reversed would a Crokes player have got through Kilcoo like that on the last attack? Would Philly McMahon/Cooper/John Small let a man through like that, would Tyrone last year have conceded that goal? Not a mission - winners exhaust all avenues to find a way.

I remember the Dubs systematically grabbing the Mayo players to the ground to win an AI title a few years back when they were a point up with a minute to go. The winners write the script.
You might remember hearing that YC, and is repeated often by different analysts in the media, but it didn't happen!
There was a free for Dublin, and every Dublin player knew who they were to pick up for the ensuing kickout and that they had to be touch tight.
Kilkenny was the only man who dragged a man to the ground, because he'd been looking at Keegan and saw him throw the GPS.
Kilkenny was rightly black-carded an the ref added on more time than was wasted.
So the myth that Dublin won because they systematically brought Mayo players to the ground is just that, a myth. The Kilkenny black card made it easier for Mayo to get the equaliser, not harder. They got an extra man out of it and were going to be given enough time to get up the field. Yet this basic analysis is washed over all the time.
David Clarke blasting the goal kick over the sideline was the final decisive moment, not the touch tight Dublin forwards!

Yep the no.5 attempts to win the ball fairly. Then when he realises he's not going to do it and is risking a foul he actually holds back and puts his arms in the air to ensure the ref knows he's not fouling.
Of course, the other key factor in the goal was the two Kilcoo men completely free in the box!
The previous passage of play also showed how hard it is to play keep-ball if the opposition don't want you to keep the ball. Kilmacud always had a free man, but usually just one and a Kilcoo man was never far away, and the passer was coming under some pressure each time, so I thought a mistake was inevitable.

On the Dublin systematic fouling (or lack of), I will take your word for it. I do, however, remember a general uproar in the media after the match and Paul Kimmage (not a renowned GAA journalist) even wrote an article lambasting Dublin's 'cheating'. But if you say that it was just Kilkenny then I stand corrected.
I agree on the naivety of the Kilmacud defending. The number five could quite easily have fouled the Kilcoo number twelve 25 metres from goal which would have let them get organised and made it almost impossible for Kilcoo to breach their goal. Leaving 2 free men in loads of space just outside the small square at that stage of the game was terrible defending not to mention game management. Kilmacud will have nightmares about that for years to come but in fairness to Kilcoo they pushed right up on their opponents at that stage of the game and forced the initial mistake from the goalkeeper which ultimately led to that winning goal.

That's absolutely hilarious Tubberman. Despite being there and seeing it with your own eyes, the Mayo aftermath hype has convinced you a lie is the truth.
There were two men on the ground when the ref blew the whistle. Kilkenny and Keegan.
This position can be seen as absolute fact at 1.42.10 in the video linked below. Clarke kicks the ball out, it's been contested in the middle of the field, ref blows the whistle. I make it 18 players are picked up in the picture. Only CK and LK on the ground.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYBFoI-fznE
This was bugging me so I watched it back. You are 100% right Hound, only Keegan and Kilkenny on the ground, every other Mayo man had a touch tight marker or being held, no issues with that. The kickout was the final nail
It really was an incredible bit of keep ball by Dublin at the end there. Serious pressure from Mayo, but they just couldnt force the turnover.
Watched the club final today, christ, that last goal was a real body blow at that stage, there's no coming back from that, was a thrilling match, not the most scoring of games but with so much at stake it really was a rollercoaster of a game.
That match saving block by the Kilcoo lad at the start of the second half was amazing, that was a cert goal and would have finished Kilcoo
The goal from the 45 was a series of mistakes, miss hit, not collected by a defender and keeper lost flight of the ball, still a lot to do for Kilcoo but they never gave up.
Kilcoo missed some scores and could not deal with the wind at Croke, whereas Crokes were able to adapt quicker to the elements and their scores came a lot easier
Kilcoo have been coming for a while. They brought Corofin to a replay 2 years ago. You need a bit of luck to.win the all Ireland but you need to be good to get there

It just seems to be a design fault at some grounds. I suspect they like to have the camera on the terrace facing the stand because the pictures look better. For example the scaffolding is up in Omagh to face across the pitch towards the stand/crowd. But they should have incorporated a gantry on the stand side as well for cameras on a bad day. I assume they haven't, otherwise they would use them. You'd think it could be sorted. It's very amateur coverage compared to other sports.

Don't think so Silver. Plenty of area at the halfway line to fit a camera or two even if the stats men are setup recording the game. TG4 were using their own trailer generators by the looks of it, unless the cabling might be an issue?

Dubs TV will probably be showing games on Friday or Saturday.
NOt TV as such
but is your county doing Club Championships streaming?
if so how much for how many games?
MAyo are charging €90 for 20 games or a tenner a game 15 for the weekend pass
how does this compare?

Derry are doing a season pass for £35.
It covers a minimum of 10 games. Live matches from the Derry Senior Football Championship include: three group games, two last 16 matches, two quarter-finals, both semi-finals and the final. In addition, the final of the county's Senior Hurling Championship will also be streamed live.
You can also watch any game on deferred overage. Basically, you can watch any Derry championship match (10 of them being live) for £35 - serious value.

we are being well ripped off in mayo so .
one thing to say just attend the dames but when you live away its not so easy.
even thing it would eb nice to see more than one game in a round
€90 for the season pass is ripped off surely. Up €30 from last year I believe.
Does anyone of the 1,450,000 attend club matches in Dublin?
Is the crowd on the other side of the TV cameras, horrible crowd at a game where the team was in the club final and has a massive catchment area.

Don't think so
Sounds more like an AGM
Dublin must have 80% County supporters who are members of Club teams but just there for tickets and 20% club supporters who actually attend games.
My kids are in templegoue synge Street. No notification to get out and support the club against kilmacud. I'm a blow in so I've no motivation to head to parnell pk for a hiding.

Agreed, I'm guessing Jarlath pulled a few strings to get that one shown? Also is it just me or do Cross always seem to get Silverbridge in the championship?
They do seem to cross paths like Ulster teams in the qualifiers alrite. I doubt any Silverbridge person would have been knocking on TG4's door to cover a potential massacre tho. I suppose it could galvanise the 'bridge and all does not appear to be well in the Cross camp, so you never know
Cross are still living on reputation and I suppose TG4 may see an opportunity for a shock result. I don't see that happening this weekend but neither do I think Cross are shoe ins to win this years Armagh championship. It might be a closer game than many people expect since it has the local derby element but Silverbridge don't have a great championship record.

A bit of name recognition is helpful for TG4 for people in distant counties and there is an All Star nominee on each side and if a Kernan or Clarke shows up from the past then many people will remember these and sure the camera may pick out Big Joe, Oisin or a McEntee in the crowd. Clann Eireann or Armagh Harps would not ring a bell for people throughout the country. Add to that, Jarlath Burns is a well used commentator who actually knows something about the teams.
A few supporters will go and I'd say that BCB will be in a minority in waiting for an Ulster campaign this year.

The whole Clarke stuff is confusing though. If there is no truth in the rumour that the Committee told management to stand him down then there is some unrest around the club giving rise to competing versions

Yeah they should have seen that game out, but when you've players as good as Rian and Cian you'll have a great chance. What is it now 4 years in a row Cross have beat the bridge? Yesterday was by far the closest they've came. Must be sick looking at yous! I agree that winning mentality or experience or belief or whatever you want to call it thats bred into Cross lads from no age always gives them that edge when games are tight. Dromintee will give yous your fill of it the next day out and if Maghery had been playing Cross they'd have hammered them playing like that.

The complexity of having dual clubs, both in action at senior and intermediate this week in crunch games, with a lot of players playing both. If we'd have looked at the weather forecast it could have been played under lights on the Monday night as a backup but wouldn't be privy to match arrangements, under foot I'd have thought the ground was hard and possibly why there was so much surface water, as I was on that pitch the day before and it was in great condition.
There was a load of championship games that did go ahead and had no such issues even though it was raining the whole time, I was drenched on the Sunday, I don't think players were hurt in fairness because of the conditions but have to agree that as a neutral this game was going to be a goodin, conditions were the same for both one team faired better on the day

Hearing that, which is awful, whether the conditions did that or not I'm not sure, couldnda helped
According to yesterday's Irish News Jamie Clarke couldn't play last weekend due to Cross having a "7 day rule", which presumably prevents you from being selected for Cross if you play another sport (?) within 7 days.
If that is the case I imagine won't be much chance of seeing him play for Cross this year given his is contracted on the soccer. So you'd wonder why he was listed in the Cross squad that was given to Armagh County Board. All very strange.

It depends on what exactly he agreed with the soccer, perhaps he would skip some games with them. Are midweek games usual in the IFA?
Naomh Conaill far the better side. Michael Murphy did his best to keep his team in contention but needed more support.

Or so the story goes, Rhode defeats Tullamore on September 10th 1911. Tullamore officials object because 2 players from Rhode also played with Tyrrellspass the same year, the objection was unsuccessful, however the Tullamore officials also noticed that the pitch on the day looked a bit short, the following day an engineer from the County Council measured the the length of the pitch, He found it to be short by two feet. In this case the match was replayed where Tullamore were the winners.

There will be new Champions in Ros and Connacht this year.
Ros Gaels bt Pearses 1-11 to 0-6. PP hit 1-2 in opening 5 minutes.
Brigids bet Clan by a goal in the other game. They'd led by 8 or 9 at one stage.

That's a surprise. Roscommon Gaels managed by former county player and Brigids All Ireland club winner Frankie Dolan. Would he be an option for the Roscommon senior football team?

This Donegal final is brutal
Glenties are as cynical a team as I've seen, hope they're beat - unlikely tho.
Getting a bit livelier here,
Sorry Ulster.

Only saw the second half, so not sure why Shane O'Donnell got the line, but Eunans looked clueless. Flukey goal kept them in it.

That was a good game, earlier Armagh game Silverbridge v Cross was good too. Derry club fball can't be watched, all the fball been trained out of them to play overly defensive. Derry have about 3/4 strong club teams and then a fair drop to the rest though they all contain a few good players.

I see St Vincents are playing sylvesters in the background of the tg4 coverage, and after a quick search, I see this is the Senior 2 final. What is senior 2? Its not intermediate is it?
no, it's not inter. it is a 2nd senior championship...
It's the second tier. Which in most counties is called Intermediate. It's two up two down, so the loser today is already promoted.

Are Dublin not doing themselves then when it comes to the provincial IFC and JFC club championships?
Not really, do you know how many divisions there is in Dublin, more than any county.
More lying down in the Dublin championship, we not mention the kick to the face on Walsh.
should they not have a 32 team open draw senior championship instead of two seniors
Yip a 32no open draw give the good teams same no of games, Walsh making Hay here in the Dublin final.
Shane Walsh transfer won the Dublin County title for Kilmacud Crokes.
They were strong enough without him, but with Mannion out, they wouldn't have won today without Walsh. I say if Mannion played against Kilcoo last Yr they have won, if both himself and Walsh were fit, they been raging hot favourites for the club all-Ireland.

Pretty sure it's not allowed any more. Didn't Croke Park set a maximum number of clubs per tier? I live in Dublin and go to as many club games as I can. There are not 32 senior quality teams. Certainly more than 16 , but with 32 the gap from top to bottom is too big.
Regarding "doing themselves" when it comes to Leinster intermediate and junior. I'm not sure they care.
Isn't it 16 Senior max allowed from here on.
Cork and HQ at odds as Cork have 12 Premier Senior and 12 Senior A teams in both hurling and football.
The Premier and A are separate competitions.
There are around 250 Clubs in Cork.

https://www.kilruane.com/club-history/
Kilruane MacDonaghs Hurling club is named after Thomas MacDonagh, one of the leaders of the 1916 rising.
There is a tradition in the parish that a great team of hurlers flourished in the area long before the G.A.A.was founded in 1884. We are told that during the 1798 rebellion there was much activity among the local people and when the cause was finally lost those hurlers called themselves the 98's to commerate their heroes of 1798. This team is reputed to have lasted up to about 1890.
A meeting was held in late 1900 in Balinamurra; its not certain in whose home it was held, where the name Lahorna De Wets was chosen in memory of the South African general De Wet, who had given the British forces such a rough time in the Boer war.
End of the De Wets – 1908 to 1912
Once again De Wets came out on top in the North Tipp. championship. The county semi-final was fixed for Roscrea, and the opponents were, once again, Thurles. For some unknown reason the De Wets were very late onto the Roscrea field. They looked like men in a trance and played as such. The second half was nearly over and Thurles were leading by 5-13 to 1-4 when Lahorna De Wets walked off the field. It was surely their darkest hour and one from which they never recovered.
Kilruane MacDonaghs
In 1935 and 1936 a serious effort got underway to unite all the junior teams in Cloughjordan parish, to form a worthwhile senior club. A number of meetings were arranged, many ending in widescale disagreement between the parties involved.
Finally the name Thomas MacDonagh was used as the unifying force. By 1937 most of the teams in Cloughjordan parish came in under the banner of the 1916 leader, and are known today as Kilruane MacDonaghs.
https://kiladangangaa.com/history
The game of hurling was played in the Nenagh District long before the foundation of the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1884. A landed gentleman named George Stoney of Borrisokane recorded in his diary on 9 September 1765 that he " went to the hurling at Carney ". Unfortunately he did not elaborate any further on the event. The English writer Arthur Young described " a very ancient custom " still popular in the Portroe area in the year 1777. When a young girl was of marriagable age, the neighbours came together and organised a hurling match for which she was " the prize of the victor ". After Mass on the appointed Sunday the people first visited the girl's home, where she was expected to entertain them with cider and whiskey. The hurling then commenced and the winning captain carried off the young woman as his bride. Yong noted that these matches often extended over two or three Sunday's and that sometimes one barony hurled against another.He described the game of hurling " as a sort of cricket, but instead of throwing the ball in order to knock down the wicket, tha aim is to pass it through a bent stick, the ends stuck in the ground".
There is a newspaper report of an intended match between a Clare selection and a team from " the parishes of Kilbarron and Mountsea in the county Tipperary " in a field near Whitegate on the Clare side of Lough Derg on 22 September 1825. The local magistrate, rev. Mr. Huleatt, arrived with ten of the Whitegate police to halt the proceedings, but the five hundred local people assembled for the match refused to go home. At about six o' clock a large crowd arrived by boat from Tipperary and were apprised of the situation by the Clare people. " Both immediately formed one body, armed themselves on the beach with stones, and advanced furiously on the police". The newspaper reported that " the Rev. Gentleman himself had his arm and his side desperately battered, and the police were wounded in every direction".
The Nenagh Guardian gave lengthy coverage to " the disgraceful and unseemly proceedings" at a match at Ballyanny on a Sunday in 1856. The match - described as " a game of hurling between townspeople and country people" - had been fixed for Annbrook, Nenagh, the previous week, but the police had intervened and dispersed the gathering. Foiled in their attempt, the parties met the following Sunday in a field in Ballyanny. The newspaper reported that " the contest for superiority was carried out with the utmost vigour and in the best spirt till a country man shouted in triumph for his party". This infuriated the Nenagh players and " soon the hurlbats on both sides were converted in skull crackers and limb breakers". A general brawl ensued and many of the players were carried from the field in " a state of insensibility ". The melee ended when the outnumbered townsmen " beat a speedy retreat " from the field. Their country opponents were so eager to continue the fight that they pursued them part of the road home.
The Lahorna De Wets dominated North Tipperary during the opening decade of the twentieth century. The club fielded not only a senior team but a successful junior side also. For instance, in the 1904 junior final at Borrisokane, De Wets defeated Toomevara by a score of 6-9 to 0-0. The name "De Wet" came from the famous Boer War general and reflected the strong anti-British sentiment prevelant in Ireland at the time. Lahorna ( or Loughourna ) is, of course, the name of a townland in the parish. Most of the De Wets hailed from the neighbouring parish of Kilruane, but Mick Moloughney and Dan Ryan were both prominent members of the senior team during its decade of success.
Killadangan,now the parish club, was formed at a meeting in Puckane school on Thursday 18 November 1915. The attendance was divided on the name for the new club : some favoured Carney; others wanted Ballycommon; a few wished to revive the old name, Knigh. Finally, John Blake, the Puckane publican, put a pound subscription on the table, suggested Killadangan, and this was agreed to.

Au contraire, it's the last chance to see both of these teams in action so it's great to see the footballer of the year, man of the match in the All-Ireland final and the man of the match in the league final in the county final of the All-Ireland champions.

They need to restructure so that the winner of their intermediate championship is the 17th best team in the county. I really like the idea of divisional sides though.
Ah just give over the moaning about competitions that only 7% of Clubs play in and half them only get 1 game.
Sean Kelly himself a Kerry man said the system wasn't right with 8 Clubs at Senior
Croke Park let's a maximum 16 teams in the championship. Kerry have 8 divisional teams and 8 Senior clubs. Maybe have 2 less Divisional teams but that would problematic too

Policy this year for games streamed on Tyrone GAA's online TV service was for the price to be £1 higher than adult admission for the relevant game, if there was a double header then the streaming was also a double-header package.
While a few people might raise eyebrows at the price compared to what some other counties charge for PPV streaming of their club games, every SFC, IFC & JFC game in the county this year along with the SHC, JHC & ACFL Division 1 league finals has been available on the platform this year. Rumour has it that one particular double-header was moved to a different venue as the original one couldn't facilitate live streaming (thought to be a lack of decent 4G signal from any network with no adequate landline backup available).
The only thing missing IMO was either some sort of season ticket or weekend streaming bundle where appropriate.
Starlink will solve this "lack of 4G" problem.
I see that performa take a starlink dish around to their live streamed events for uploading. Very smart.
Really think they're missing a trick by not having some sort of season ticket. Not sure how much one costs in other counties

Potentially, yes along with any other LEO satellite broadband provider. However you'd want to have business level SLA agreements if you're going to do it properly, otherwise you could be in a world of hurt (that goes for any provider) especially as there's been reports of the average down/up speeds of Starlink customers starting to shrink. And it won't be cheap & probably not worth it for the few venues you'd require it. As it is, the venue in question is due to be covered by Fibrus early next year according to their address checker - given that there is a community center at the club, that's perhaps a reasonable enough reason to get something like that installed as they can make use of it throught the year and not just during a small window to accommodate streaming championship games.
Just done a speed check on my Starlink connection; 167 mbps d/l and 23 u/l
I haven't seen any issues with speeds shrinking.

Just done a speed check on my Starlink connection; 167 mbps d/l and 23 u/l
I haven't seen any issues with speeds shrinking.
Uplink is the key speed barometer here - 23Mb/s is good for feeding 1080p to the streaming server, but little room to go any better. In my experience it's no better than EE 4G in most cases in d'north
Reports concerning shrinking speeds have come from here (https://www.ispreview.co.uk/index.php/2022/09/ookla-q2-2022-study-sees-fall-in-uk-starlink-broadband-speeds.html) based on tests done with Ookla - but of course individual experiences can vary.
The likes of Starlink and other potential LEO satellite services (e.g. OneWeb) definitely have a place in areas where it is unlikely FTTP or a fast enough wireless terrestrial network (mobile or FWA) will likely reach, but while LEO satellite internet removes some of the bottlenecks that are inherent in Geostationary satellite internet, there's still a ceiling in the potential available - it's fine for now for most current customers, but as/if more customers come on stream, either more satellites are required (and there is realistically a finite number here - there's enough junk metal orbiting earth as it is!) and/or the available bandwidth has to be spread among more users. There's nothing unusual about this - as newer internet service technologies have come on over the years, new adopters often get great speeds for the technology of the time, but they get gradually slower as more users get on board with it, happened with ADSL, FTTC/VDSL2, 4G LTE and its starting to happen with 5G NR too. Even happened in the 80's & 90's with dial-up connections.
23Mbps is loads for 1080p - enough for 4k with modern encoders.
HEVC encoders on the market specced at 20Mbps max BW for 4k.
Professional broadcasters using HEVC at 6Mbps for news feeds and live with bonded sim and Satellite broadband at 1080i these days - might want to push it for sport content to 8Mbps with the extra motion.

You could certainly try running 4K video with HEVC at an 8Mb/s lossy bitrate as an uplink to a CDN server to TV studio, but the end results to the viewer will likely be sub-optimal. This is because even if that original stream looked fine, it will have been recompressed at least once by a further encoding to the end viewer (either via broadcast or IP delivery) as well as possible production use.
For linking purposes where only a lossy compression for video is practical (e.g. satellite, 4G or 5G mobile), consideration for what is intended to being filmed is required - if it's an OB only featuring interviewees there is little movement in pictures & most movements are generally predictable which isn't demanding on live encoding. However where there is lots of moving objects, where the camera is often moving and where there is quite a bit of detail in the images - like a lot of field sports - to prevent artifacting (before the picture even reaches the studio) the video encoders need a lot more elbow room to allow more frame difference pixels to be properly encoded for the same objective video quality compared to a couple of talking heads against a static background.
It's been a while since I was viewing satellite feeds, but I do recall that the live feeds for TG4's GAA Beo's OB broadcasts that were on Astra 3B at 23.5 East had their MPEG4 1080i video encoded at around 16-18 Mb/s alongside their main audio commentary track and a "no commentator" track that gave a crowd-only sound presumably so that footage could be reused without commentators as Gaelige on news reports and/or have dubbed commentary after the event. As these are live broadcasts and the feeds are SCPC, the video will be at a (mostly) fixed bitrates and in setting up will want to keep as much headspace as possible for when the encoders need to work their hardest.
Satellite use for non-critical OB use has markedly dropped in recent years, especially if the feed to the studio isn't live - if some amount of editing is done at the OB location then this can be pre-compressed using adjustable bitrates that usually is set of a perceived quality marker before being sent over an IP delivery system, be that mobile, LEO or geostationary satellies, landline xDSL or optical fibre links etc. which in essence isn't much different to uploading a video on YouTube. I've not a lot of experience myself of satellite broadband, but I'd imagine that since contention rates can be very variable and that it has only limited control over, it likely has issues with bursts & clogs of bandwidth both on downlink and uplink speeds similar to that with mobile internet, where doing a speed test can often see speeds vary wildly during the testing period due to what other users are themselves doing connected at either a specific cell site, or at another cell site that provides the bandwidth to a neigbhouring cell (usually a microwave link).
For what it's worth, as far as I'm aware there are no primary satellite based links to broadcasters covering the current soccer World Cup - instead, all of them are being delivered via private optical fibre connections to broadcasters. There are some satellite links in place (most of them encrypted) as a backup but I don't think anything's been required to need them so far.
You took the words right out of my mouth.

Those are the rules
In the 70s Divisional Teams won Munster but it was deemed unfair so the practice was stopped.
Kerry build their county championship around the needs of the county team. Most other counties do not
As far as I remember watching what kerry County championship games on TV they only made quarterfinal?
They've two championships though. Did they win the other one? I had heard , not sure how accurate this is, they were in danger of being relegated.
Austin Stacks were relegated to Intermediate.
The real strength in the county championship, how many in the club championship, 12? Who put them out of the county championship and at what stage?
KO'R didn't qualify from the Group stages as far as I recall.

They won the other championship that is purely for senior clubs (I.e without any divisional sides).
That's the reason they're representing Kerry in Munster.
If a divisional team wins the "county" championship then Kerry are represented in Munster by whoever wins the senior "club" championship.

I think it's standard procedure to relay the surface after each concert. Looks like they didn't give the new surface the opportunity to bed in right this time.
Let's put this in perspective. CP from the Leinster Club semi Finals until tomorrow 21 matches plus four days of CNB will have been played on it in 9 weeks. That's a nine month Premiership season of matches in the winter where growth and recovery are minimal. Yes they have resources that many other grounds do not have such as undersoil heating, grow lights, frost fleeces and irrigation but even with these the pitch is not getting a chance to recover. What would Club pitches look like if they were getting that sort of use? They would be in bits no doubt about it. Another down side of the split season?
Usually the first fixtures in CP are the Intermediate and Junior Club Finals which traditionally took place mid February with the Senior Club semis fixed for a provincial venues around the same weekend. This saved the surface of CP for Spring fixtures. The surface is/was usually excellent for these matches when held in February but the CP pitch is being overused to the extent of being abused. The surface was totally re-laid after Garth Brooks with a hybrid carpet which retains the structure of the surface better than a non reinforced surface. I would not like to see the condition of the pitch if it had been of a non reinforced construction. Putting fixtures on in CP will with the utmost certainty see them not being postponed especially with the tight schedule as is, but with the possibility of a poor pitch surface quality being compounded further when the competitions are run off in the same calendar year. Dublin footballers are not helping the situation either with them nominating CP as their home venue for the NFL with their first match next weekend. It will be interesting to see what the attendance figures are for the their fixtures and could Parnell Park have been a more suitable venue.
Rest assured the groundstaff at CP and at all other grounds both club and county around the country will have them pristine again all it requires is a bit of patience and understanding from supporters and not expect August pitch presentation in January
Firstly fair play to all pitch staff at Croker- can't be an easy task at this time of year. Totally agree, firstly Dublin footballers should be told where to go until at least the Lenister final.
What about proper investment in another decent pitch for big games in winter football, all the bells and whistles and care that the croke park surface gets but obviously a smaller stadium. Play club semi finals etc there and keep Croker for finals only.
I can understand wanting to give everyone their day in the sun, camogie, junior, intermediate etc but the two flagship club games are going to be played at the end of this cycle of games on what looks like a poor surface, especially for hurling.
There has to be a better solution. Finals only maybe in CP

Definitely wouldn't deny any code/level their day in Croker for an AI final but no call to cut it up with earlier rounds. And no way should Dublin be in it for the league for various reasons

There is scope for smaller stadium with an inflatable roof or the like to be used at this time of year. Perhaps somewhere central like Newbridge could be developed in that way.
The Prentybubble?
IMO proper investment as you describe regarding resources to ensure that games have the highest possibility of being played as fixtured needs to happen at not just one venue but at a venue in each province given the number of fixtures there are across the four codes or we are back to square one.
Granted Connacht have the Dome but the spectator capacity is limited. just look at the number of Sigerson fixtures postponed during the week and pitch inspections today at the AG and Pairc Esler for the McKenna Cup Final. Due to Climate Change is there a possibility that this could be the normal where waterlogged and frozen pitches are just to be expected on a more regular basis. I would have thought that currently the AG in Ulster, O'Moore Park in Leinster, Semple in Munster and McHale Park in Connacht would be candidates for winter proofing. Could/should be included in the Casement build. If there isn't a strategy in place for this there should most definitely be.
is it not kinda of a disgrace that rte are not showing senior club championship finals they are one of this biggest games in GAA and its probably harder to win a club all ireland than an inter county.

The Prentybubble shows that the technology is getting there. A roof that connected to stands would be the business.
Such a thing would make Casement a different proposition also. I know these things have been in use in N. AMerica for 50 years and have had some problems, usually with snow, but technology must be improving.

Why? Tg4 show games all year. It would be more of a disgrace if they did show them. I would suspect it's a contract thing anyway.
i appreciate tg4 showing them and tg4 have been great for club gaa and all gaa but if you want to promote the club game it might be better on rte but i suppose if you want to watch you know where to find it.
Rte done little for the club game outside of Dublin club games just recently and the odd Leinster if a Dublin team involved. Tg4, run the thing for yrs when no-one else would touch it.

Both teams won't make much impact whoever comes out on top!

Will hardly prepare teams right for provincial knock out championship.
Not much time for teams still playing to have friendlies either. Bit of a mess working it like that tbh.

Ah sure then, they'll just head to the pub!
Let's take Antrim county as an example, every week you'll have football one week hurling the next, single code teams would take a challenge game (I've ref'd these in the past) the week they aren't playing.
I don't think any teams that win will be sitting doing nowt.
the master fixtures need looked at, for sure but that county final today the county clubs obviously agreed to it.
Wexford had the same system last year. Played the Hurling championship first and then football.
As far as I recall the Wexford clubs were presented with a choice between the current system or alternative weeks and they made the choice

When was the last time a Wexford hurling club made a fist of the Leinster club championship? Only Oulart the Ballagh spring to mind and that was quite a few years ago.
Yes, a lot of clubs are genuine dual clubs but how is finishing you club championship in late July and then not lifting a hurl in anger for a few months any way to prepare for a tilt at a Leinster club championship?

You would think that having the football first would make more sense in terms of giving the best overall chance for both winners in Leinster as hurling touch/sharpness seems to drop much quicker than football touch if you stop playing from a few weeks.
Maybe no one in Wexford gives a hoot about Leinster Club hurling Championships.
Only 3 Clubs get to play in them.

Wexford club hurling has great tradition in the club series Buffer's winning one and St Anne's Rathure losing 5!! So I'd say they are well focused on Leinster but its so hard to win them.
Though could say The Rossies don't give a hoot about the club football either ;D

Clann was a timing issue. No Connacht team won until 98 and Corofin. Aftwerwards the way was lit and loads of clubs won. Clann will always be remembered. I was there for the 88 finals. We lost the hurling and Clann lost the football. We thought it would always be like that but club can change fast.

See they are due to show an Armagh SFC game next weekend, very slim pickings about in the last round of the group games. Hopefully they'll not go for the name recognition game - Cross v Mullaghbawn which is pretty much a dead rubber. Killeavey v Maghery probably the best game available Imo (with Madden v Harps maybe 2nd, probably a hard watch but something to play for at least).
I see Cahair O Kane tweeting that Tyrone is the only county in the Country that has knockout on the club championship this year

Whoops they did, meant Killeavey v Ballymacnab
what's derry format now it was four groups of four with all teams qualifying which kind of pointless if all teams qualifying group stages were basically for seeding.

Ok, I'll do it.
Kilcummin finished 3rd in Division 1 are one of the big favourites for the Intermediate Championship.
Ballymacelligott finished 4th in Division 1 are the favourites for the Premier Junior Championship.
A joke, but maybe if they put the winners of the actual Junior Championship into the Provincial Junior Championship it would be more fair.

Over covid Armagh went to straight knock out. Reverted back to group stages this season. Personally prefer straight knock out but the current set up has its merits.

Harps v Madden will be a borefest. They should go with Ballymacnab v Killeavy, be more football on show.
Mullaghbawn are out so their game with Cross will be a farce.

The backdoor format is best, at least everyone gets two competitive games.
The Down Format.
people say teams getting one championship game is bad but leagues are there for teams to have multiple games maybe they could give league winners a spot in provincial championships but that might take the shine off winning a county championship and it would have to be run like soccer with league weeks and then some championship weeks then back to league then championship again Because if a league winner got into provincial championship they might not try hard in county championship unless they motivated to win county double.
Punctuation me boy!!
Leagues are in the main now played without Co players so should be left to themselves.

In theory yes but few if any teams have their first choice teams in league matches and championship results is where they are judged on especially management

A lot of counties haven't really added more championship games though. Just fcukin about sessions before the knockout football starts.
This is it. The group stage added nothing to the AI this year. I'd keep the straight knockout 100% for Tyrone and can't see it changing. Each to their own tho for what they want to do.

Not sure why Madden would want to give up home advantage on this one though? If every other team in the group gets a minimum of 1 game at home not sure why they should be treated any different. Madden v Harps would be a more appealing game for the neutral though derby game and 2 teams that have done well in 1a over last couple years.

Could they not have waited another week or two? At least then it would have been straight knock out.
It's hard for TG4 at the minute as almost every counties championship is group stages
Cork hurling had their final group games this weekend.
I'd have thought one of them might have been shown as there were a few close shaves involved.
Irish Examiner has rights to stream Cork championship and it's included in their subscription so I guess that muddies the waters
the Clifford goal from yesterday:

I see they play Austin Stacks in the semis now and that should be an interesting game.
on a side point have the provincial club championship draws been made ? Cant find Connacht anywhere. Wont affect my home club from being County Champions to playing relegation playoff is some rollercoaster !

Crossmaglen v Silverbridge making a live TV game this time of year is insanity.
It's a 1st round game and Cross aren't even county champions this year.
They are currently 1/14 with Paddy Power to win the game.
Of all the important games up and down the country this weekend, some of them quarter finals, outrageous this game is on Live when we are only getting x2 per week.
This was me last year. Now I was wrong as this ended up a clinking game but Silverbridge making TV back to back years when they're a middle of the pack Armagh club is definitely an outlier

It makes no logical sense for that game to be on outside of Burns influencing the decision. Silverbridge were in the 2nd tier of football in Armagh(they gained promotion) and shane o'neills were relegated back to intermediate football. I dare say there was more appealing games throughout Ireland on Sunday, there was in Armagh never mind the rest of ireland.

Maybe they heard the president-elect was gonna be up a ladder fixing gutterin, or in a cherry-picker re-stitching the tri-colour. Maybe the Silverbridge nets needed repaired or quite possibly the posts needed a lick of paint. All valid reasons to get the cameras to south armagh on sunday for a celebration of
Jarlath football.
Oh, and there was a dead-rubber game on too that proved to be riveting entertainment.
Silverbridge do not ha e the pick to be a top team. But they have an admirable volunteer ethos and they do not need TG4 to get a job done.
They were poor matches on Sunday, have they no knowledge of what could be good games? Throw on the Tyrone championship, do us a favour of not showing the Donegal one.
there was a preliminary tyrone junior championship game on but they probably only can show senior championships
Sure Tyrone won't let them cover games, keeping it for Tyrone TV to give their loyal supporters a good rogering.
Looking at the schedule for Tyrone first round games none will be on TG4.
Supporters would be out around £400 or £500 if they were looking to stream every senior, inter & junior championship game from Tyrone TV. A season ticket would be the job there but has never been an option.
It's a racket, Armagh TV season pass is £90 (decent value tbf, which I bought) and I've been to 3 matches already as well ffs, and Ulster TV are waiting in the wings for the various Ulster Club games, then there's County football League, championship, GAAGO. The amount of money a GAA fan shells out these days is scandalous.
Nobody is forced to go to games, stream games etc .
It's an individuals choice.

TG4 should launch a spinoff station for Tyrone club matches . They could call it TGTE.
Teilifís Gaeilge Thír Eoghain.
This would hit 2 birds with one stone
- it would meet the insatiable need for Tyrone club matches on TV
The level of Gaeilge in the county would also improve.
It's still a money gouge. Last year Tyrone literally denied free coverage to TG4 to maximise income (£16 to attend or the same price to watch on Tyrone TV I think). The same type of boys (the length & breadth of Ireland) will be crying looking volunteers in the next breath.
Am just saying Tyrone got 8 senior clubs of near level footing, so a champiobship game there be a decent pairing compared to say a Kilcoo, Glen, Scotstown mismatch in other counties. Or our old Favourite, Kilmacud kicking the crap out of somebody in a early round Dublin Championship game.
The amount of 10+ pt defeats in the Armagh SFC is shocking. I count 8 games in the round robin stage that finished with one team getting beat by at least 10 points.

How much did people have to shell out to attend the games before streaming was widely available?
The bit that people forget about the Tyrone model and the lack of a streaming season pass is that all adult championship games, at all levels, are shown, unlike other counties that cherry-pick which games get the streaming treatment. The first round of the Tyrone JFC this weekend won't turn a profit on any of the games, but they're all available live and the associated production costs for each of them will be the same as for Errigal Ciaran v Killyclogher in a fortnight, which will make money. The rates TG4 offer are a fraction of what a big Tyrone game might pull in, but there are plenty of counties that haven't as strong a streaming audience are glad to get the rates.
That's a big undertaking (& commendable)but likely unsustainable longterm - unless revenue generation isn't a primary concern; how much per streamed game?
wasnt there a few tyrone games on rte past few seasons maybe they were paid by rte.

I read/heard somewhere a few months back that TG4 had upped what they were paying for the rights to matches because of the competition from streaming after COVID.
That's a good point about all the games being available not just cherrypicking some.
Is there any other county offering that level of coverage?
Cherrypicking (done well) is a better option overall imo. A lot of the Tyrone Junior matches recently were Turkey shoots and that is repeated throughout the 32 counties. The streaming figures were no doubt abysmal, the other bigger games will pick up some of the overall slack but is it a goer in the long run? - It is a sustainable model if your aim is to provide a great service to your county and aren't really worried about costs nor interested in generating a profit, but that doesn't sound like any GAA county board that I know of.
They are all great services btw.
Anyone use Clubber.ie?
Apparently contracted in a fair few counties...Louth, Longford, Tipp, Waterford, Kerry to name some.

Swings and roundabouts.
Tyrone would take a hit on a fair few games but would come out with a profit overall due to the higher per game cost.
The choice is cherry pick your games and turn a smaller profit on them all or show them all and provide a service to the Urney & Castlederg supporters, not just the Carrickmore and Dromores.

Is it a foul on any other part of the pitch? If you're saying yes then it's a penalty.. haven't seen this particular one but for me as a ref, if there is clear gap between saving with his feet and no follow through contact, then no foul.

Are you sure he can't save it with his foot? I thought it was only if he came out and blocked the kick with his foot that it was a foul?

Time for some rule changes methinks - top level club football is probably the worst example of Gaelic football on display.
Teams good enough to implement the defensive strategies, but not quite good enough to add the attacking piece. It really has to change.
Crokes v Boden venue could as easily be Bray or Newbridge far handier.

Would agree with this, I have watched a number of senior championship games in Armagh this year and very few teams go after the opponents kickout basically drop off and meet the team at half way. Clann Eireann Clan na Gael game was lauded by many, was a good game once Soupy Campbell got up and running and Clan Na Gael began to chase the game but for 40 minutes it was very unwatchable.
That's the way the county game is too sure. Kerry and Dublin particularly in the semis didn't push the kickout until the last 15ish minutes then it just becomes a different game when they do.

Physically it's not possible to do that on a sustained basis, you have to pick your moments, usually after an attacking set play when your players are already mostly in position.
Probably helped that both teams had far superior benches to their opponents, so later in the game was going to yield more for them.

Or you can go with the revolutionary tactic of everyone marking their own man. My under 8's coaches were ahead of the curve with that one back in the day!
does any county have senior county finals on saturdays.
is there much of a following to these divisional teams in kerry do people have a identity to them would they have people that would be going to their separate club games going to them

There's been some fine scores so far in the Dublin Senior Final.
Some mighty points on show in the Dublin county final. Maybe Derry Club football could learn to be less defensive and play more attacking football! Men with ability here, who not afraid to take the 60/70% shot. Judging by the crowd, club football in Dublin doesn't sell out.
Dublin club football seems a standard above most other counties club football, Hard to know who has the other strong championships, Derry and Donegal you couldn't watch it, Tyrone good, but a standard below Dublin. Kerry destroyed by Divisional teams, Galway maybe woukd have a strong championship.
looks decent crowd to me for a club match
Did Cian O'Sullivan quit club football same time as he did county football?
Some goal from Shane Walsh
Dare I say it but Kilmacud look better than last season. Mannion is back to full fitness and Walsh has settled in well. Craig Dias isn't even playing today which shows how strong a squad they have. Is he injured?
Kilmacud very impressive, some great scores
Kilmacud win 1-14 to 0-9. Hard to see anyone stopping them playing like that tbh.

Re attendance, that's as big a crowd as I've seen at a Dublin club game, in my experience, a few hundred would he a healthy attendance at club championship and for club league, it's man and a dog stuff.
It should be remembered that both clubs have reportedly got about 5,000 members each.
Re the standard of Dublin club football and attacking flair - can be as hit and miss as anywhere - I've seen loads of atrocious ultra defensive crap and a sprinkling of decent attacking games. Much the same as anywhere else.

I'm not sure Derry county board would allow it to be on TG4 as it is being streamed.
Their streaming has been an absolute disaster though.

I didn't see the semi, but apparently Crokes were blessed to beat Raheny. And there's not a chance Raheny would have gone on to win Leinster (never mind AI) so Crokes can have off days, but will be the team to beat.
No doubt that club football/hurling is a minority sport in the capital, but Dublin county final always gets a good crowd. If there was a northside team in it, it would be jam packed.
But similar to the game at a national level, there is zero promotion. Absolutely no effort made to let the casual Dublin fan or the non-Dub GAA fan living in Dublin know that the likes of Mannion, Walsh, Basquel are playing in a county final and it might be worth a look.

The different parts of the GAA do not join up, the likes of Dublin has a large number of season ticket holders at county level. Now some of these have a county+club season ticket, but the remainder would never receive an email with a list of club fixtures or any encouragement to attend. Obviously, people are mostly interested in their own club, but the likes of a final should attract some neutrals.
Often wonder does the GAA not want people turning up for games?
Promotion of games almost non existent which is baffling for an organisation who gets most of its money from gate receipts.
seems like they only really care about inter county as thats the big money maker.
They're even terrible at it in the league. The last day of the league should be getting major coverage round grounds etc with different permutations live but nothing.

+1.
D2 and D4 on Saturday at 4pm and 2pm.
D1 and D3 on Sundays.
The Sam and TC Round Robins had virtually zero promotion and overpriced tickets.
The Provincial club championship should be promoted better but with County finals still being played it doesn't take the spotlight.
2 Leinster club games last weekend.
Dublin won the All Ireland and had the final last weekend, but other counties should have it wrapped up a while. Tyrone final still to be played and they were knocked out early

Slaughtniel will not be sitting about watching Netflix, they will be gearing up for an tough Ulster final and possibly preparing for an All Ireland semi final. they have just finished their football where many of that team will have been going hammer and tongs, so the rest, reset and build up wouldn't be doing them too much harm, great prep for a manager to have them all ready and raring to go.

It would be unfair on dual players to be in laying championship game's every week in 2 codes when opponents could be getting a weeks rest between games.
wasnt there a county final in august somewhere
Kerry hurling county final played start of August. None of teams involved impacted by the Kerry senior footballers and the county hurlers did not make it out of their Joe McDonagh group. It suits Kerry to have it played early and quickly so that the football club and county championship can run smoothly without disruption.
Kilkenny county football final played off by end of May most years. The advantages of not having an intercounty team.

But building a calendar around dual players is unfair on the vast majority of players who don't play both games.
Was a cracking game, some players on show but think Lynch and Aaron looked injured, NP doing enough and big Shane can puck a ball!!
They'll give Ballygunner their fill of it
Byrnes was a bit off too. It was a strange reffing performance- if lynch got a sniff off the ball (apart from the last patrickswell play) he got a free whereas Casey was permanently fouling the life out of Gillane and getting away with it.
Np are some team. David Dempsey has consistently been doing damage for years then you have Boylan, two Casey's and o'donoghue and Ronan lynch would walk onto most county teams about too.

I did think lynch was given a couple handy ones but his combative style draws frees, Gillane was for most parts physically held up, and that's some feat.
The ref was, at very least, 85 years old ;D
Think they went for goal a bit early, coulda tagged on at least 3 points to possibly steal it at the end.
Best team won
Yeah best team won and yes the ref maybe looked a bit older than the average ;D
Patrickswell just weren't good enough to win it really. Not convinced when it came down to it that the belief was there.

It's been on the app from the start. Sure that's where we had to watch the ulster hurling final!
What makes the difference when being able to stream matches on the app, blocked from the munster final but able to use it for the Ulster final, is it if its a match in the 6 counties I can view it or if its involving a team from the 6 counties?

There was only 7 minutes until half time in Armagh, there was no need for ads at that time they could have waited 7 minutes. The GAA contract should prohibit ads during play.
Lot to compliment tg4 on but that was a disgraceful decision. They already had a break before penalties and was no reason to miss 2/3 minutes of an ulster final to show ads. Especially so close to half time.
