Muineachán v An Dún - 24/06/12, Ard Mhacha

[Orchardman]

not sure if anyone has mentioned it already, but surely the winning point at the death was a throw ball? he tried to fist it over the bar but the speed and height that he had his hands at when the ball left him was the kind of pass outlawed a few years ago.

Down also got a nice peno and a few handy frees in the last lock of mins to get back in the game, ref wasn't too bad on them

[Onlooker]

Down to nice and not ruthless enough at this level.saying that they done well to hold in there all the second half even when things went against them they kept plugging away.referee was awful and I guess that will be his last inter county game this year

I completely agree that the referee was terrible, but you can be sure that he will get plenty games for the rest of the year.  Incompetent referees seem to have no problem getting appointed to do games, just so long as they throw out plenty yellow cards whether they are justified or not.

I agree. All this guff about the ref is OTT.

What would we be listening to if a Monaghan player stamped on a Down players head?

Saffron Sam would have a fatal heart attack after an appropriate (Monaghan thug outrage) sized apoplectic fit.
RIP

Silver linings do offer some consolation.

If you were right about me, which you aren't, you've been too keen to talk to children in internet chatrooms....

Control yourself.
