All Ireland Championship 2025.

[Main Street]

Lol wtf. Monaghan player knocks it out of the man's hands and it's brought forward for a 2 pointer. Bit of a joke

He was protesting the free and didn't hand the ball back.

Correct call from the ref

By the time he looked up to see what way the free was awarded the ball was slapped out of his hands. Should players hand the ball straight to the opposition and wait to see what way the free goes and if they do get awarded the free then they'd have a case of the ball being brought up 50m?

That 50m penalty was extremely harsh, Coldrick is fanatical about applying the 50m rule with minimal and even no offence being committed.

Breathless 1st half there. Down very threatening every time they go direct, Monaghan need to tighten up in defence. Badly needed that 2 pointer from Beggan at the end, shooting was getting poor just before that. Likes of O'Hanlon and Mooney being very tightly watched, will need big impact off the bench from the likes of McCarron and Garland. Mohan a very noticeable loss around the middle

Cracking game again!

Level game 2-18 to 1-21.  53 mins played.

Some clearance off the line to prevent a 3rd Monaghan goal there. Down lead by two points with 15 minutes to play.

Any defenders playing here??

[Wildweasel74]

Watching watching all these games, am starting to wonder if there's a proper man marking defender in the country!

[Cunny Funt]

Any defenders playing here??

Like a lot of the Div 2 games this year all attack little interest in defending. Whoever finishes 2nd in the table after this game are going to be wrecked for next weekend.

[Wildweasel74]

Gonna have to change that breach rule to just a free on the halfway line, it's a ridiculous punishment!

[trileacman]

This game has turned to muck at the end here. For such a great game it's really been spoiled by the last 10.

[Blowitupref]

A costly breach for Down there.  Monaghan score the two pointer free to now lead by 4 points with 5 minutes to play.

[Schkite]

Jesus Christ, of all the times for Down to breach that rule. Massively costly, can't believe teams are still making that mistake at this stage

[thewobbler]

Gonna have to change that breach rule to just a free on the halfway line, it's a ridiculous punishment!

It's the entire key to the new rules which is producing much better football to watch.

It's also undebatable. If you can't count to 3 then don't blame anyone else let alone the rules

[Wildweasel74]

Why should such a infraction have a heavy punishment. Look how hard it is to work a goal for a measly 3pts, then u get that for 2, ridiculous! Teams tend to be chasing bck in a  line, haven't time to stop and look round them.

[thewobbler]

Coldrick's unwillingness to show cards for off the ball tackles is a regressive step for football.

Hard football good. Holding and dragging men off the ball. No f**k that.

[Nanderson]

Downs energy has gone here. McCarron has been the difference in this half.
