My reading of it is,

When one man lays off a pass to a team mate. He makes a run to either receive a pass back or join the attack, and is taken out off it by someone from the opposing team.  I suppose when a player is tackled when he doesn't have the ball, but is making a run.

i couldnt have put it better myself. we were toaght that in school, but then it was quickly frowned upon, it seems to have cleaned up a bit now, and it does get punished. although, if you do it in a subtle manner it can often go unnoticed! ;) after all you dont have to take a man out, just a litttle 'push' to stop his momentum does the job just as well.

T O'Hare - take this thread down. i'm sure the lad wouldn't thank you for it

Agree

no call for ohare to take it down. thats what the threads are for.its his opinion.and he obviously isnt the only one who thinks hes a good player. i agree for one. he was brilliant last night.dominated, scored some cracking solo run points for a big man.

i would also question this desicion of the new mayobridge manager. Surely they could have got a man with a better rep than than carroll? Especially when i heard some of the names that were in for that job.. Ill admit i dont know much about him, but on very first impressions, it seems its a huge step up.. From managing whitecross and apparently carrickcruppin (???), to manage the bridge...hard to know i suppose..makes it interesting for the rest of us though!
