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

Have the O'H's been sent home for good or is it just the off season?

can't imagine the lads that have been training all year would be too happy to see any o the lads starting against nemo. Does sean og play with the big ball?
-

Just the AFL off-season.
-
Are any of the club championship matches that tg4 get shown on setanta? living in england and wouldn't mind seeing some club football
-
The Armagh final is on on sunday. Crossmaglen Rangers an Pearse Ogs
-
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.

I would assume Setanta have a bigger budget than TG4. Bit unfair longball - maybe you would rather check the results on Aertel or even get updates on the radio :o

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?
-
I still thought it was a poor crowd for a county final.
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.

Gaa Beo.
Tg4 has been a godsend to all GAA followers.
Your coverage of football and hurling throughout the year has been terrific and continues to improve.
The introduction of the "deferred game" was a great idea.
Looking forward to the 'Blayney / Clontibret game as we play the winners.
Congratulations.

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.

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.

The goal was on the RTE news on sunday night.
On another note, why do TG4 ignore Ulster?

Because they learned their lesson after the Armagh final this year.

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?
-
I know drici, you either work for McGranaghans or TG4. You can't do both!
-
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

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.

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...
-
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.
Who is live this weekend?
-
Who is live this weekend?
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.
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.

Only because there was feck all else on at that stage and they didn't want to have to try and justify showing the galway quarter finals at the expense of finals on elsewhere.

They only showed the Galway county football final this year. They didn't show the hurling final. In fact I can never remember them showing anything other than the finals in Galway. Unless they did years ago.

Its just cause she got to watch the first episode of Corrie in the nice warm living room and then you arr probably packing her off to a cold kitchen to watch the second episode while you watch the GA, admit it ;)

They seem to show it every year though

The fact that they are based in the Galway Gaeltacht might explain that IMO.

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.
-
The fact that they are based in the Galway Gaeltacht might explain that IMO.
That i've worked out - I just wish someone would have a highlights programme with a bit from each provincial championship game each week.

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.
-

TG4's programme probably shows more of the games despite that.

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???

whilst i enjoy your coverage i didnt see many glenullin shirts on tg4 this year
-
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.

No chance of deferred transmission of the Moorefield v Tyrellspass game??? It is a Leinster semi-final in fairness and when was the last time a Westmeath club was on the telly???

Its a pity alright, the Moorefield/Dromard saga has added interest to it too
-
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!
-
HeHeHe
-
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:
A 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. >:(
-
Ref got a dig in the tunnel.
-
Really, where did you hear that? are you sure it didn't happen in the Moorefield game?
-
9 o'clock news. RTE.
May be one of hardstation's dreams/reality mix ups but yes, that's what it said.

Reality is beating the dung out of dreams at the minute.
Here we are:

-
Really, where did you hear that? are you sure it didn't happen in the Moorefield game?
Oh right, it did.
-
Yeah that makes more sense, you could see at the end of the match that the Moorefield lads were less than impressed with him.
-
Sorry for the confusion there.

-
Does anyone know, is it just ladies football that they are showing tommorrow night??
-
Fair play to you Drici, we rarely get featured!
-
Why?
-
One of the mates was saying that he read somewhere that TG4 are showing a Cartoon instead of the Galway Senior Football Final on Sunday.
Good one drici!!
-
Surprised nobody twigged that until now.
-
Well it's not that hard in all fairness for a follower of football.
-
Is it the Donegal or Galway final that's live though?
-
Galway.
-
Lads, its Cortoon Shamrocks. Some of ye nordies seem to be having awful trouble with this. ???
-
No need to get so animated, Jinxy.
-
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?
-
Turn or torn?
'Tis on now though I enjoyed the country and western stuff that was on before it.
-
No 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.
-
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?
Works for me in wales.
-
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....

Thanks for that.

Anyone know if it's possible to listen to BBC Radio Ulster MW online?
-
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....
Oh yeah, I had forgotten about that!! It'd be cold there today with no stand up!

Wish TG4 would switch off their sideline Mics, the Language and vile comments which were clearly picked up during todays coverage of Kildare football final , are unfit for broadcasting on a National Station. Then we wonder where the kids get it from

TG4 need to get rid of the Irish language for these games. It's just not fair. They should have the GAA games in English and the rest of their programmes in Irish.

That's nonsense, its an Irish language station, showing our national sport, can't see any reason to not have it in Irish

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!
-

sounds logical to me
anybody know what game(s) are confirmed for the weekend yet? Nothing on tg4 website but I expect KK Hurling final live and Tyrone footie deferred?

Time to abolish all this Irish nonsense eh?
What the hell are Bogball and th'other eejit doing following Gaelic games then when one of the aims of th GAA is furthering the Gaeilge.

It has been a long time since it was an aim of the GAA. It's a dead language. Let go. Move forward without bringing unnecessary baggage with you.

It's very much alive and if you want to be considered a proper Irishman you should learn a bit of it instead of the oul Seóinín/Unionist attitude of get rid of all that oul Irishness. >:(

You're a sad act. Move on with the times.

Aw god, me too. It makes them boring. The Tyrone - Mayo match would have been an even better game, had it been in English.

I concur

Do you have commentary when you are at a game? No. Then why not just turn the commentary down if it annoys you so much? I'm no gaelgor but find the commentary in Irish useful just for the players names.

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 -:
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.

Without getting into an arguement about the language, that qoute above is probably the last thing I would expect to hear from any Irishman worth his salt.
That the sort of bullshit talk the brits tell 16 year olds in order to get them to shoot Iraqis.

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.

I would have been glad to understand what Conal Martin was saying? Can you help?
Did you see the incident involving Rambo yet?
-
He said,"What the f**k is thon **** playing at? Look, there he goes, headbutting. Jaysus, look at the speed of him running there. Why's he not playing? Dromore could use that pace in their forwards. Good man, Teague. Ah pish, he's got up again. Great pace once more. This is deadly craic. Up the Rahilly's."
I did see Rambo's high tackle/dig. Could have walked alright. 1.9999/10 - Red card. 8/10 - Yellow. 0.1111/10 - Nothing 'cause the 3 blind mice missed it.

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.

Sure we always have to be on. Half the Gaeltacht in the country is in Galway. Plus they are only out the road from Salthill.

If they are going to Salthill, I don't know what they will be showing from there. ;)

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:

I was told it was the Galway Hurling Final on Sunday but it has been postponed. Those 2 games are a poor substitute.

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.

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.
Would St Galls be the favorites in the north?
-

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.

0-05 0-03 alright, John Donaldson type of day. Had to swim across a large moat to get onto the pitch afterwards.

aye, was aware of the stats, there were great grants available if people could pass themselves as 'irish speaking'.
There still are and at least half of Belfast 'Irish speakers' are creaming it.
-
Seems TG4 have dropped the Ulster SFC final in favour of the Connaght football final as the deffered match.
their anti-ulster bias gets worse and worse, there's probably more irish speakers in the belfast than there are in galway, but it wouldn't be as handy for the crew to get to
Galway gaeltacht compromises nearly 50% of the entire gaeltacht population.
The Galway Gaeltacht has a population of 40,052 and represents 47% of total Gaeltacht population. The Galway Gaeltacht encompasses a geographical area of 1,225 km2 (473 sq mi). This represents 26% of total Gaeltacht land area. The largest settlement areas are Spiddal and Carraroe. Carraroe is located 48 km (30 mi) west of Galway City, Spiddal is located 19 km (12 mi) west of Galway City
aye, was aware of the stats, there were great grants available if people could pass themselves as 'irish speaking'.
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.

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.

Aw he just got carried away with a few f**ks here and there. Thought he'd have been better behaved though with all the cameras about. Suppose the head was flying after only the second time the clubs has lifted the Dr Maguire cup.

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.
What time is throw in? 3.30?
-
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.
-
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.
Crokes full whack would beat Cross by 7-8 points.
Without them I'd expect Cross to win by 1-2 points.
Great win for Crokes today. Doubtful anybody else would ship those losses and win.

There won't be a cow milked in Stillorgan tonight.

but then how many other clubs have the pick of a local community the size of the Crokes? If divisional sides aren't allowed, is there a case to be made stopping superclubs from entering?

I think its utterly amazing how a GAA club in the absolute heartbeat of Leinster Rugby can be so successful. Yes there is an issue to their size but other clubs like Cuala out there are getting strong as well. But they do an incredible job in a previous GAA wasteground.

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.

Definitely. What would anyone's guess be as to the smallest club (population wise) to win the AI senior club? Ballinderry?

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.
-
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.

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.

The Crossmaglen v St. Gall's match will be televised live at 2:30pm (transmission starts at 2pm), and will be followed by the Tipperary hurling final.
Ar Aer 2:00
2:30 i.n. Raonaithe na Croise v Naomh Gall (Cluiche Ceathrú Ceannais Peile Uladh - Craobh Club AIB)
4:10 i.n. Na Sairséalaigh Dúrlas Éile v Cluain Abhla/An Ros Mór (Cluiche Ceannais Iomána Thiobraid Árann)
This happened on the Friday before the match.
A repeat would be good.
-
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.
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

it aint even on the highlights show tomorrow night. Previous 2 AI Club champions - it was an obvious decision IMO. Instead they have some divisional team on.

TG4 dont like coming to the black north. People giving off about BBC & UTV's GAA coverage - NI mustn't exist in the Devaleran hallways of TG4, they should be made to answer why they are such a partionist shower.

TG4- the 26 county broadcaster.

Any idea what games are on next weekend? I'm horribly biased but I hope they show the Dublin Football.

At the end of the show yesterday they said the live game next week was Oulart The Ballagh v James Stephens in the Leinster Club Hurling. The deffered game was listed as St Brigids vs Tourlestrane in the Connacht Club Football.
-
Why wasn't the bloody Cross St. Galls game on TV today? >:(
They did show Cross v St Galls live last year. It wasn't competitive then and it wasn't yesterday so they probably made the right decision.
-
I just hope they show the Ballinderry and Cross game on the 13th :)

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.

So what games are live/deferred this weekend?

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.
Munster Senior Football Final
Dr Crokes v UCC still live

Crusheen(Clare) v Na Piarsaigh(Limerick) deferred

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".
It was a good battle last Sunday.

Big respect to TG4 for showing the games today, 2 very entertaining tight games enjoyed from the comfort of the armchair. God forbid if we were waiting on Ryle Nugent at RTE to get to watch our games.

Someone on here posted a long time ago, that TG4 should do a Laochra Gael episode on themselves.
They have transformed Gaelic Games viewing over the last 10 years.

+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,

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

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?

Will destination Newry be showing the Cross game?

Disgrace how the AI Clubs champions and a club of the AI County winners's match wasnt shown today!

Why?
-
Eunans were on last week, Cross are on next week. Seems fair enough.
-
Disgrace how the AI Clubs champions and a club of the AI County winners's match wasnt shown today!
Not really, think TG4 spread the coverage very well. Didt see much of the football game but the hurling match today was first class. TG4 have to be commended in bringing these matches to the wider public. Maith sibh.
-
Disgrace how the AI Clubs champions and a club of the AI County winners's match wasnt shown today!
They're many things but they're not stupid. The world and his wife knew it was a mismatch .
Suspect the Rangers might get it a wee bit tougher next week.

Cheers for that HS,(as you've gathered I've no Irish :-[) now, what time approx will it be shown?
-
Probably about half 3.
-
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.

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.
TG4 reckon it is going to be shite. They are probably right so I'll read a book instead.

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

Tactical preview of the Munster club SFC final now up http://action81.com/blog/?p=6481
-
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.

Is it fair that the London champions have to wait from 14th October util now to play their next game??? thats 2 months without a competitive game.

English team gave Castleknock a right good battle earlier today in AIJFC 1/4 final. Went to extra time according to Res Dubs with Castleknock winning.
Iirc some of the most recent such games have been closer and not hidings .

Exactly, all the more reason that they could go straight into the Connacht championship.

I'd have no problem with that. It would be a logical progression form their participation in the Connacht county championship.

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.

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.
-
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.

TG4 are an excellent broadcaster who show live club matches from every corner of the country. I love TG4 and won't hear a bad word said about them.

Yes, i watch it every night here in Derry. You can get it through Sky or Saorview in Derry City. GAA coverage is first rate. Passage V Na Piarsaigh last week was fantastic. GAA Beo on a Monday night is a must see for me.

A little surprised that Kilcoo v Ballinderry is not on the programme this week, especially since no other Ulster matches have been shown yet this year, but we can't really complain. TG4 are an excellent broadcaster who show live club matches from every corner of the country. I love TG4 and won't hear a bad word said about them.
To be fair, the whole Irish language thing is a bit of a draw back.
Ohh for fcuk sake.
To think that you are from the same County as the great Dúbhghlas De hÍde ...... sadly shakes head....
Sure I visited the Little Branch's grave-site only a few months ago. When was your last visit?

And Basil Mannion too, Brigids man and selector on our recent U21 county teams under Nige.
Benny's the manager, K-Mac was stationed to the Curragh last winter so that forced him to step aside after the AI final.

Not a single Ulster game covered this year, despite the fact that the games attract crowds of around 10k.
Is there any chance TG4 will showUlsterclub final?

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.

With an understrength Cross, this year's Ulster championship has been rendered pointless.
And rightly so. Ballinderry & Glenswilly ffs......a bad year.

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.

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.

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.

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.

who is on this weekend?. It has to be the Ulster final surely. They have to do at least one Ulster game.

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.

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.

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.

Thurles Sarsfields now play Cratloe of Clare in the other Semi Final this Sunday.
-
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.
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.
-
Kilmallock are actually pjaying against sars from cork in kilmallock next Sunday !

Yes, watched the highlights of Kilcormac Killoughey.
Should be some match though Cork v Offaly clubs live on Sunday.
TG4 do a great job.
Kilcormac Killoughey and Thurles Sarsfields.
Hope nobody gets the names mixed 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

Which game is live on Sunday?
-
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.

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

Vincents probably defeated better sides Garrycastle,Portlaoise on route to the Leinster final. Its St Vincents All Ireland to lose.

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
Vincents probably defeated better sides Garrycastle,Portlaoise on route to the Leinster final. Its St Vincents All Ireland to lose.

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.
-
Well done Corofin.
Vincent's had their year, only an exceptional team can win 2 years in a row.
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.
-
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.
Looked like that to me too although mot sure the umpires knew that.
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.
-
Well done Corofin.
Vincent's had their year, only an exceptional team can win 2 years in a row.
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
-
All over now. Corofin's All-Ireland to lose.
I wouldn't write Slaughtneil off just yet. They've got some spirit.
-

Thought St Vincents were gonna walk it this year ;-)

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.

Corofin are 3/10 so it's not just the men from the west.
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.

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?

Club games are on GAA Go, aren't they?

Surely the Tipp hurling final will be on tg4 this weekend?
It is. Deferrred

Looks like your right armaghniac, I bought the bloody thing thinking I'd get all the club games too but it seems I'm not. Are the games geo-blocked on TG4 now? Disaster if so.

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.

Clough/Ballacolla v Oulart the Ballagh beo
Scotstown v Slaughtneil iarbheo
Earlier start this Sunday as sunset will be at 4-56pm in Áth na gCoire.

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

Whose on today?

Someone give co-commentator in Oulart v Clough Ballacolla match a coffee, hoor is talking in his sleep.

Clann na nGael v Castlebar Mitchels beo
Na Piarsaigh v Thurles Sarsfields iarbheo
Show begins at 1-30pm.
-
That Thurles game is not on this weekend. It's been pushed back a week due to the sad accident which killed one of their backroom team over the weekend.
-
RIP
Any word on what they are showing instead?

Clann na nGael v Castlebar Mitchels beo
Ballygunner v Glen Rovers iarbheo

Cuala v Clara beo
Nemo Rangers v Killarney Legion or Daingean Uí Chúis iarbheo
Nemo in with another chance to play a Club that have won their County Championship on the previous day.

is them the games for next weekend? no cross v kilcoo?

Tg4 does a great job but coverage of ulster club games does seem down the pecking order at times :-(

No licensing issues anyway, they don't show many games as they're afraid that the childers will get ascared watching all the mad northerners trying to kill other. As bad as the Picts we are!

True. Not much TV licence money coming from the 6 either.

Free State sell outs do not own TG4 by licence fee.

What games are on TG4 today??

Cuala v Clara.Live
Nemo v legion deferred
-
Cheers tippabu
-
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.
-

Paídí was a Garda for a while, Tomás (and Marc I think) are teachers.

Corofin v Castlebar Mitchels beo
Na Piarsaigh v Ballygunner iarbheo

On another note after a weekend with a host of Provincial semi finals at Junior, Intermediate and Senior level The Independents lead GAA story online is about violence in a Meath Division 4 game.

Said his young lad was playing with them - might see an O'Se lining out for Cork down the line ???
Been living in Cork for a good while I think.
O Se also said 2 Cork clubs offered him cash to play from them :(
-
Oulart the Ballagh v Cuala beo
Crossmaglen Rangers v Scotstown iarbheo
Nemo Rangers v Clonmel Commercials iarbheo
Crossmaglen v Scotstown should be starting at Half Time in the Crossmaglen v Scotstown match and should catch up further as TG4 advertisements do not last as long as Half Time does.

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.

Will the cross v scotstown game be shown live saying it's now a 3.30pm throw in? Or are they shown nemo game first after hurling?

That hurling game isn't the Leinster find and is the Munster final of last year I think. If it's unrestricted then I can't get it anyway.

There needs to be a principle that if the GAA require a game to be blocked that it then be on GaaGo.
Even the Radio Ulster commentary doesn't work for me, I have to resort to Northern Sound!

Oh jaysus what a miss.

That is brutal..missing a free like that 14 yds out dead straight in front of the posts..

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.

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.

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.

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!!!

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!!!

You don't need a transfer to play for a middle eastern club.

Aye, it's more the other way round.
A native of Offaly, Kirwan played hurling and football with Ballyskenagh but has been living in Cork for a number of years where he has played hurling at junior and intermediate levels with Erin's Own in Ovens.

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
1) GAA BEO 2015 - 2016
2) GAA BEO 2015 - 2016 - 79 Mionúir - Cluiche Leath C
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.

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,

Rhode v St Vincents beo
2-00pm
-
St Vincent's Niall Curran has a rare accent. Where's he from?
-
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.
-
Should that have been a red for the Vincent's number 24?
Injured his elbow ;D
-
Big miss by Mossy.
Come on Slaughtneil!

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.

Fair play to Slaughtneil, great result. Hopefully they can finish the job on Paddy's day.

Full back for Slaughtneil is class.
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.
-
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
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?
-
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.
-
Pullback by Buckley surely a black not a yellow?
Lucky wasn't a red. If someone done to Kerry they be crying about it
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.
-
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
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.
-
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.

-
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.

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
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
Sime run by Casey there for Crokes goal
-
Really awful performance from the referee.
Yeah he's been pretty poor I feel.
-

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.

Hardly likely, when would you see a Tyrone side in an All Ireland club semi final?
-
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.

I would use word brutal. Seems in over his head. The amount of time he wasted giving yellows and not letting Corifin get on with the game was just wrong.

There clearly was.
The double standards with Kerry football is there for all to see.
Sweep, sweep.
Any views of Fitzgerald pulling the jersey off the Corofin player and chucking it into the stand?

When pretty much everyone is disagreeing with you and none of them are Kerry men you know you're wrong. The jersey coming off was two lads grappling and a shirt came off and was thrown away, not a particularly sporting incident but nothing that hasn't happened thousands of times before.

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.

Spouting populist nonsense has absolutely zero relevance to the actuality of events.

Way more cynicism in first game than second game and it wasn'teven that bad.

Good competitive club game, no systematic sledging, diving, goading a player after a score, spitting, dropping knees into a man's back...so, not near Tyrones level. Anyhoo, the Tyrone club were relevant in this thread months ago

I'm just highlighting double standards and you're happy to out yourself as a hypocrite.
Kerry teams have plenty of previous for most of the above and other additional indiscretions too but you'd probably deny the holocaust too.

Again, nonsense with a hefty sprinkling of the put upon ulster paranoia. The jersey thing was nothing, the slide tackle was a simple foul that happens in games (nothing cynical about it), didn't see Pat O'Shea run on the field and most of the time the camera caught him giving out it appeared to be at his players, the high tackle on lundy was only a free and he would have only got a shot at a point anyway. 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.

You are some propagandist. It's incredulous that you have the nerve to label me paranoid when you come out with that.
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.

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.

Ballyhea have Tony Kelly, no better hurler in Ireland at the minute.
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.

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??

Tough conditions today this will be low scoring I thinks
-
Decent scores kicked so far...
-
Crokes player made a mark and threw the ball to someone else to hit the kick. The lad threw it back as in "You have to kick it, ya clown".
Is it not a foul that he threw it to someone in the 1st place?
-
He doesn't miss those.
-
Rogers shouldn't have left cooper there were 2 men there already

How long more will pathetic Deegan let Crokes cynically foul
-
Enjoyable game so far however two teams known for good defense can't be happy with how loose their are in defence today. Looks like most of the hurling supporters have gone home already.
-
How long more will pathetic Deegan let Crokes cynically foul
I will say it again five minutes on. Horrible Ref
-
How long more will pathetic Deegan let Crokes cynically foul
yeah - sneaky kick there to the lad over the sideline

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.

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 was a free, defender was on wrong side and reached over the shoulder pulling him down. However if ref gives free where was his card?

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.
20 years on from football being reinvented and this is where we are at😉

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.
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

Yiz are good crack lads...giving off about Kerry football after the muck Ulster teams have inflicted on the nation since 2002.

Hypocrisy at it's finest. It's ok as long as their preferred team is winning.

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.

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.
Bottom line is that Deegan was a disgrace !

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.
-

;D
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)

-
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.

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.

-
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.

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.
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!

Lomans should have fouled the Moorefield player who carried the ball through for the goal

Three point win for Cuala well done to them.

There won;t be a share traded for a week after that.

Some going for a Dublin team to win two hurling in a row!
-
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

Another victory for the Dublin money machine. One step closer to the edge. Yay.

Why do you say that Syf?
I don't take that much interest in hurling but I like the cut of Cuala throughout the championships. Good clean hurling and quite a few classy players. Money talks in football alright but I felt the more skillful side won today and won on merit.
-
City clubs winning club championships is good! The myth of its country teams winning is a thing TG4 made up

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.

He did. I wouldn't mind but he was very quiet in the first game and quiet in the replay until the last 10 minutes or so. Came alive at the right time for Cuala though.

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.
-

I could see the replay and not miss the live action either. What more purpose do you want. Great Idea. Fair play TG4.
-
Great idea. Too many kickouts/puckouts being missed with continuous replays. Such an important part of both games now, you really can't afford to be missing them.

Ballybay Pearse Brothers v Scotstown beo
3-30pm
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.
