[option]

All talk about frees and handing ball back is irrelevant when what is certain is the ref only brought the free up 40 yards. Go to the video and count the refs steps 32 steps, he also ran straight from where he was so it should've been a free from inside the arc and closer to sideline.

A draw would've been a fair result and it's not surprising Dingle haven't offered a replay when every other team in the country would have. That's the Kerry lads for ya!

Also, were Barrs better off having another protest at the ref before the free was taken? Would the rule then have been a 14 yard free in front of posts?

Hindsight but if that is the rule it'd have been a guaranteed draw and another day out for them at least.

The rule for 50m for infringement, if the free is outside the 40m arc the the ref can bring it in as far as the 14 if that is within the 50m.. but the player has the option to take the free from outside the arc if he chooses to have a go at a two pointer.

If a free or infringement happens inside the arc it cannot be brought outside the arc, it can be from where the free is or if an infringement inside the arc brought to in front of the goals on the 14.

If we don't know the rules at this stage I don't know what to say!!

I think you've picked him up wrong.. If the ref had taken the ball in closer, say to the 20m, the Player would have most likely tapped it over and taken the draw, rather than risk the 2 pointer and lose

Correct, Conor Geaney didn't have the option of a one point free from where the ref brought the ball up to.

Some finish. Ref was totally right to bring it up. Happened against Tyrone in the league a few times so guessing it doesn't matter that the player is trying his best to give it back since I've seen refs call frees exactly like that all year? Anyway it's a rule that a majority of people wanted apparently. Was never in favour of it myself but rules are rules! Harsh on Sherlock

How was he right to bring it up?

It wasn't right, it was an error by the ref.

Two pointer for Dingle wins it. Poor discipline by St Finbarrs to concede that free. St Finbarrs 0-20 Dingle 1-18.

No free for catching a man in the face? Don't think it should matter if intentional or not. And I thought we wanted the game to be faster so why not let Tom Osullivans point stand?

Was minimal and unintentional tbf.

Once the whistle is blown ya can't play on and the second one was ya can't have 16 men on the pitch

What about that? Is that a footblock?

Not close to a foot block.

Good two pointer for Dingle. 1 point in it heading into added time.

Five minutes to play St Finbarrs 0-20 Dingle 1-14

Good defending to prevent a Paul Geaney goal right now.

Dirtbag behaviour from Salah. So unprofessional and lacking in any degree of self awareness or humility.  If really he can't see why he's been dropped then he's quite dumb.

If the team and the management don't have enough fires to put out at the minute, they didn't need Salah torching the building.  I don't want to see him play again. Sell in January.

Be unhappy all you want. But keep it behind doors

Doesn't appear to be a player that wants to keep it behind doors as I recall a few spats he had with Klopp on the sideline.
