Courtney skelped donnelly by the looks of things

Who in their right mind put that clown Hughes in charge of an important Sigerson match like this?
Respect !!!! He's one of the top refs in the country at the moment. And it does look they boxed in front of him - so what else was he supposed to do ?.
You must be joking. Sigerson football had always been played on edge and rarely ruled with cards like this. It may not be right but has helped make Sigerson what it is.
I couldn't agree more but the powers that be don't want this sort of football anymore - they want non contact, a pile of scores, good behaviour - a wee bit like basketball I suppose. So you can't really blame the referees.
Not sure if you were at the match Orangeman but Hughes cannot be absconded simply because of 'the powers that be' ........... I'm not even talking about the sendings off (though Courtney's looked highly dubious from my view,) but all a player had to do whilst in possession was run in to an opposing player/s (preferably a group) and they were given a free. Irritated me all game long and I'm sure many people would share a similar sentiment? Agree with you about how they seem to want football to evolve though.
