Quote from: Truthsayer on June 29, 2025, 03:28:33 PMHope Tyrone get Meath. Don't rate them at all. Galway very poor..

Be careful what you wish for! Galway got theirs.

No easy games from here on in.

Tyrone have always struggled with Meath. Even when Meath were rubbish Tyrone could only beat them narrowly on 3 occasions between 2013-2018. The 2018 game went to ET and we were very lucky to come away from Navan that evening still in the championship.
The 2021 Minor final as well, Tyrone should have won that game easily but kicked themselves out of it and Meath won by a point.

Clear body check on Kerry defender there by Grimley I think.

Right in front of referee.

There's alot of minor fouls been let go here, it's either a foul or its not.

It's pure daft and introduces a needless flaw that's so easily avoided: If the clock is stopped while a player addresses a free, it should only go back on the moment he kicks the ball.

Don't understand the refs anymore. You're allowed to push people in the back and push them when they're bending their back but some fair challenges to win the ball are called as fouls?

Quote from: thebigfullforward on June 29, 2025, 04:11:04 PMNot fair on the players playing on a surface like that

Is it the surface or their boots?

All week-end players have been slipping and sliding.

Armagh not playing well so far

The shots that were coming off for Armagh last year not coming off today.

Has to be surface. No way players watched the games yesterday and didn't change the boots as McGinley said

O'Shea running  riot for Kerry and Conaty for Armagh, Again another bad goalkeeper mistake for the goal.

Quote from: rodney trotter on June 29, 2025, 03:29:10 PMGalway are getting like Mayo. The nearly men. Good win for Meath.

Mayo got to finals, very rarely lost earlier than that until the terminal decline of that team started in 2018.
Galway aren't a comparable team.

Mayo got beat in 2016 and 2017

How is that contradictory to what I said?

I didn't say it was contradictory.

You Mayo men easily triggered should you not be on the beer celebrating Galway getting knocked out.

I am 😀
its a great relief, can enjoy the rest of the championship now!

Goal for Armagh,  Great finish after a poor kick out, Kerry respond with a point and two pointer from O'Shea .  30 mins played Kerry 0-12 Armagh 1-8
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

I'd blame the defender more for that. He'd turned away from the ball.

Agreed

Decent first half. Best of the weekend so far.

Armagh forcing things too much, Rian in particular.
