Regards theft of oil it wouldn't cost a fortune to protect your tank with a locked shed as any difficulty put in front of thieves will persuade them to look for a softer target.
Tractors and other machinery can be protected with locating equipment if one has a mind to do it. Personal responsibility is not to be sneezed at and the police cannot be everywhere and protect everything 

Surely the position a player is selected in is influenced as much by what the team needs as much as his personal best position.
This is particularly the position at club level where talented wing/corner men are often deployed in central positions. The history of football is full of players who changed position, often radically, at various times throughout their careers.

Rest up boys and keep yer powder dry until we see how it works out.
The Sean Cavanagh type tackle may be relatively rare in being the most blatant of the year but there are lots other less obvious fouls which still help to destroy good footballers. What will be necessary is that linesmen in particular will need to be much more proactive in bringing the refs attention to fouls taking place outside his line of vision. Many of these are the type which gets the player offended sent off for retaliation. Also it makes no sense to have a ref stop an attacking movement to administer a black card as happened in Saturdays Longford - Mayo Hastings Cup game. [Longford player seemed to have shouted something at the ref]. I think I also heard of a black card being issued for foot block which is completely outside the rules.
