Gym Monkeys and Screen- Discuss.

perhaps, but now isn't the time to be settling scores

I can't believe people have missed this Mike being magnanimous!!!!  You're right though the sign of greatness is to be humble in victory and and gracious in defeat.  Indiana is neither.  I think Dublin are worthy winners but it is easy to be turned off by the behaviour of some people.

they were very lucky and should enjoy that luck.

Will you get away outta that - Gilroy even said we got the breaks and in a tight game that can make the difference - To say very lucky is taking away from a fantastic win.

We'll enjoy it alright

Calling them Gym Monkeys is bananas,

That struck me as well, nearly fell off me seat when I read it.  Agree with the rest of the post as well.

Jaysus you're their number one fan now. It was't that long ago since you were having a cut off them yourself.

People are missing the point about the gym monkies 'v' coaching

Any intercounty footballer should have the basic skills, so does he need to be coached in the traditional sense on the skills. He shouldn't.

But at intercounty level, he will need to be able to execute the skills under a high intensty pressure from other players etc. The fitter, stronger they are, the more capable they will be to carry out the drills.

I had the pleasure to watch the All Blacks and Aussies in training a number of years ago, and the physically intensity in there drills was alarming. There was no physical work, just high intensity drills

We asked you of their trainers regarding the absence of fitness work, he stated that the have already run the sh@t out of them for two months, so the have the fitness levels to complete the drills and bring it into the game.

In my opinion, Dublin training schedule fitted into this mind set. They were now fit enough to execute their skills for a full 72 minutes.

Sense at last. Lend it some of the others. A team with likes of Kevin Nolan, ROC and the Brogans would only be classified as gym monkeys by an idiot.

Biggest gym monkeys in the country by a mile this year were kildare and their complete gym freak mcgeeney, hes a squat freak

Nonsense.

Kildare are still sticking to Dwyer's tried and tested method of galloping lads into the ground during the cold winter's on the Curragh. For a bit of variety they're brought to Punchestown and popped over a few fences. Our lads don't see an O'Neills until it's thrown in by a referee.

Incorrect again. I think you'll find he lives by the Liffey up the road in the big smoke.
