It's really quite simple actually. If there is no clear advantage after 5 seconds you go back to the free?

I'm still not convinced these refs know the advantage rule. They all apply it differently. The referee ran about most of the game last night with his hand in the air then said advantage when the team in possession had clearly gained NO advantage.

I see the McNulty's have been appointed at Bredagh. Any other management comings or goings?

LMFAO

The u19 finals are upon us; tonight at Dunsilly Naomh Brid v Cargin in the 'A', hope the weather holds and we get a good game. B final on Sunday, LD v Glenravel, also Dunsilly.

Hoping for a good game too Brendan. Your boys will be strong favourites with no distractions of players being tied with seniors. Hopefully we cans still make it competitive.
Suprised Glenravel in the B, their u17s had been strong in previous two seasons.

Tomas in there too.

Can Mick McCann now be declared as the greatest Antrim footballer ever?

They could win another 5 or 6 championships in a row. Who's going to compete with them? I did say 'possibly'.

No jealousy. I was just correcting Country Bumpkin - maybe he didn't know just.  There is no denying it. Cargin are the most complete team possibly in the history of Antrim GAA. And it doesn't look like anyone is going to compete with them in the next 7 or 8 years given the younger talent coming through and learning the tricks of the trade from the more experienced lads. CJ is a sight to behold in all honesty. Big Pat had a serious say in the result when introduced also, and hes still only a lad. Sean O'Neill, Gribben, Eunan Quinn etc all only lads. Good luck in Ulster 

To consider Cargin as "the most complete team possibly in the history of Antrim GAA" is laughable.  They've won 1 Ulster Championship game...

I do. I was at Corrigan yesterday and just for the record I thought Colm had an excellent game. All I was asking is what is the actual ruling? Can the advantage continue after 5 seconds and then a 'new' free be given? Would it be worth the referee shouting advantage over like in rugby for clarity? Then if a free is given in a more advantageous position there wouldn't be all the confusion? I appreciate some fouls are down to referees interpretation but sometimes the rules are just the rules and they should be followed?

If 3 different refs give 3 different calls then 2 of them don't know the rules?

Maybe MR2 could clear up the ruling on the advantage for us?

And if you coax him from a rival local club when he's still young it doesn't count.

Pretty sure I read somewhere that Benan Kelly played for Moneyglass?

As I have said before, Cargin are the best team in the county without any doubt.
They have, by far the most talented squad without transfers and look likely to dominate for a while.

The commentators weren't very complimentary of the Referee yesterday. Said he couldn't keep up with the play on numerous occasions. Some very harsh calls and some ridiculous calls were their exact words. Have to say, Ciaran McGourty is excellent.

Completely obsessed with St Brigids Country Bumpkin

Having lost out in the finals of back to back minor championships to Cargin in the past few years  does anybody know how many St Brigid's lads from that era have stepped up to their senior team.
I would guess that Cargin have in the region of 70/80% included in the senior panel now.
