Quote from: Main Street on February 17, 2025, 12:15:20 AMThere was a bit of a strange one at Ros v Mon. The ref awarded a penalty to Monaghan after the Mon player had pointed. The decision was baffling because the defender's contact was minimal and didn't affect the Mon player in any way.The penalty was saved. Naturally the ref is not going to award Monaghan the point that he denied them but all came right with the world when in the immediate aftermath Monaghan managed to turn the ball over to regain possession and score a point. Natural order was restored to the game despite the ref's disruptive intervention.
Yeah didn't see that one as a penalty tbh. Had 2 incidents in Cavan vs Louth. First one was likely a penalty alright, ball went into the net just after (no advantage at play with penalties?). ref gave it, and it was missed. Then the 2nd one was later in 2nd half, and was the most outright penalty you'd ever see. Man literally chopped down in the box, but ref waved play on. Maybe didn't want to give a 2nd one? Weird anyway

;D  ;D by all accounts very entertaining games.  Cabana win was a surprise to me , vey happy with how Meath went. And while Roscommon will be out biggest game so far I'm a slight bit optimistic that we can edge out a result. We do and then promotion is definitely on the cards
Copa Cabana did very well. I hope the cocktails were as good as the fuball.
ahh gotta love the auld autocorrect getting missed sometimes.

Meath vs Roscommon - Meath massively improved but might be a step too far this week; Rassies by 3

Westmeath vs Cavan - One of the lesser known local derbies - unless your from Finnea - Cavan by 7

Louth vs Down - Another local Derby of Sorts - Down by 3

Monaghan vs Cork - Definitely not a local derby - Monaghan by 2

Meath are 5/2 and I can't help thinking that is a bit of value.

Was thinking the same that was a huge win for Meath against Down I would have thought at outset Monaghan, Cork and Down would have been competing for second spot behind the Rossies.  They seem to have lost a few years under the O'Rourke regime.

Our local newspaper Ros Herald is tipping Meath in this one. Much of that thinking is down to the loss of Enda Smith, Brian Stack (captain), Daire Cregg (Vice Captain) - and a few others likely to be out, Colm Neary who was outstanding in first two games, and Ronan Daly (went off injured against Monaghan). That said we have better strength in-depth than usual but that's a lot of top players out with two away games coming up to promotion contenders Meath and Cork. Meath impressed against Down, look a strong physical side and putting up big scores. Conceding plenty too so could be another high scoring Div 2 game. Odds should be closer.

Monaghan v Cork moved to Saturday for weather reasons apparently.
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

Bit of forward thinking at last.

Could be a few games under pressure with rain sunday

Weather will hardly be much better in Westmeath, Meath, Louth
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

A bit late to be rescheduling a game, doesn't give traveling supporters much time to change plans if attending via public transport or have accommodation booked, then again it's Cork who don't travel to away matches in big numbers.   
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

There was a decent Cork contingent in Newry a few weeks back.
Would many supporters travel much distances like that regular. Outside the few counties going well in div 1.

Honest question.

Which is better rescheduling the game for the day earlier or calling it off when the pitch is going to be unplayable.
