Referees , the malicious and the genuine physical contact

[samwin08]

Frank Farragher writing in the Connacht Tribune sums up the Refereeing decisions  being made at the minute  "Referees really have to be able to distinguish between the malicious and the genuine physical contact that is a central part of the game of Gaelic football. As refereeing models go, Monaghan's Pat McEnaney seems to have the best 'handle' on what to let go in the physical cut and thrust that is the essence Gaelic football".

A very good point. Most haven't got the foggiest in this regard.

I'd be interested to know/see how McEnaney gets on in his assessments. I bet he does badly compared to the likes of Marty Duffy.
