The why do Kerry players get away with Blue Murder thread

[ross matt]

Personnally I feel they will target Gooch and Donaghy for bans if by some miracle we win the next day.

At least you're not getting paranoid about the whole thing anyway Superdoopercooper...

[omagh_gael]

SuperDooper, now you know how us 'paranoid nordie's' feel in Tyrone

[Fear ón Srath Bán]

As if not having a great selection of players, top manager and great hunger wasn't enough now Kerry have enough ammo to build up a siege mentality with the singling out of Galvin and O'Se.

Not at all. Sure if it isn't the rest of the country giving them a hard time they're knocking lumps out of each other in training. They'll just go a bit easier on the skelps on the training pitch now 

[Frank Casey]

With apologies to Kevin Barry........................

Another martyr for the Kingdom,
Another murder for the Sunday Game,
Whose brutal replays may kill old Ciarrai,
But can't keep their spirit lame.
Lads like Tomas are no cowards,
From the foe they will not fly;
Lads like Tomas will wn the All Ireland,
For its sake they'll live and die.

[AZOffaly]

Or...

A great crowd had gathered beyond in Killarney,
their heads all uncovered, they listened for news.
When the word came from Dublin,
Four Weeks - plus the 'quarter'
They banished poor Tomás,
The Ventry rebel.

He poured scorn on his fate like a true son of Kerry
With a shrug of his shoulders, like Galvin before
When auld Tohill proclaimed there'd be trouble for elbows
An Riocht just said we'll be soon back for more.

God's curse on you Cooney, you lackey for Brolly
No decision is taken without RTE's say
But while the Kerry supporters will cry out for justice
They all know that, yerra, there'll be other days

[ardmhachaabu]

AZ, WTF?

[AZOffaly]

It's my wife's fault

No Tomas and Galvin now for a 1/4 final huge loses but we will get on with it no one will doubt they deserve the suspensions but again if the system was fair I ask what about the likes of

O'Hara, the galway corner back, Tommy Walsh, eddie Brennan, the tipp & wexford guys!!

and others from every game all summer, Nope not a mention, and the worst sinner Derek Kavanagh before that all off scot free.... there is a smell off the whole system

Darren O'Sullivan will step in for Galvin and Aidan O'Mahony is a useful replacement for Tomas and O'Mahony will have a few doubters to prove wrong, training will be cracking for the next few weeks. Not that we need a cause every year to make an assault on Sam but it helps.

Anyone in the mood to answer a few questions:

Who is in the CCCC ? Is Frank Murphy somehow involved?.

Where/ When do they meet? Is it normally a meeting or a phone conf or video conf like what happened this week, do all the delegates review the same information.

What games do they review? What is the reviewing process, full games or only selected incidents and are these selected incidents those which are highlighted in the media.

Who was the last player exonerated by the CCCC.

Why are hearing results not published on GAA.ie or through official GAA media press releases, RTE.ie got the leak about Tomas off the KerryGAA website today

Can the minutes or recordings of CCCC meetings be published, should be an easy thing to do in this age of technology?

Mickey Harte raised all these questions regarding the transparency of the CCC ages ago and was called a moaner. Many on here said it didn't matter that his players were treated differently to others, that they should take their punishment. Personally I think the use of video evidence is a joke and unfair.

I take your point re the unbalance of highllighting the instances Mike but the Galway corner back incident bears no comparison to any of the others mentioned.

[Hardy]

KM, I've been blathering here for at least three years about how the CCCC seems to be operated remotely by the Sunday Game and about the need for a properly organised and transparent citing system.

So welcome aboard the campaign.

What a stupid thread. Are you brain-dead or have you been living on different planet? Only Kerry players are being punished this summer. What about Eamon O Hara's stamp on a Galway player last weekend. What about the incidents in the Wexford/Tipp hurling match. Pull your head out!

[Kerry Mike]

So welcome aboard the campaign.

When is the first meeting of the Anti-CCCC taking place ?
