O Leary gets the all clear

[Tankie]

What gives you the right to call Noel O'Leary a sc**bag? I'd reckon he's a grand fella.

If some of the Dubs did that to Geraghty you'd be cheering or in a very silent minority so save us the feigned outrage.

first of all only a sc**bag would just punch a man in the face when he isn't expecting it.

And secondly you don't see dublin players do this type of stuff!

I'll repeat me earlier question Tankie, here's the clip: http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=NV_c1zd88vs

"So by that logic Ciaran Whelan is a sc**bag for elbowing David Mitchell in the face when he wasn't expecting it? Agree or disagree???"

sure the ref was standing right beside him and he saw nothing wrong with it, and obviously the CCC saw nothing wrong with it what so what do you want me to say. Sure whelo was rugby tackled to the ground so under GAA thinking its ok to retaliate. it wasnt even an elbow more of a shoulder.

Sure my point of this whole thing was thistype of carry on sould be cut out by the GAA handing out bans, can any disagree that O'Leary should not be banned?

FFS - Should have gone to specsavers

Ur "point" was that O'Leary was a "sc**bag" for punching "a man in the face when he isn't expecting it". My question to you (and it's a yes or no answer) is " Ciaran Whelan is a sc**bag for elbowing David Mitchell in the face when he wasn't expecting it?"

The difference is that O'Leary punched Geraghty to gain an advantage when there wasn't any apparent provocation.

Mitchell was acting the bollox for the ten minutes he was on the pitch leading up to that and had taken Whelan out of it late again - Whelan deserved to go for it, but he wasn't a sc**bag for retaliating.

Thats the difference

Im a little perplexed....

The other night Tankie said he wished the player who punched Brian O'Driscoll would die in a car crash because he was a sc**bag for punching a fellow player..
Then he comes on here and defends Ciaran Whelan who is clearly seen elbowing a Westmeath player in the face,an action which could have caused serious damage to the Westmeath player...

Double standards or just a gobshite who can't take off his Blue and Navy coloured glasses

Question not aimed at you heffo, to the best of my knowledge you haven't been running about the place calling people scumbags and claiming that u wouldn't find the Dubs doing similar. Although you have been mixing the sublime with the ridiculous with one or two factual posts thrown in.

TV didn't show us what transpired before the punch or were u sitting beside Pillar and his young lad in the Hogan Stand???

No, I wasn't at the Cork v Meath game and I didn't see what happened off-camera, hence my 'apparent' preface to my comment. I don't know what happened between them, but O'Leary has form in this regard (GG does as well, but I think he get's a lot of bad press and for every punch he's thrown, he's probably been on the receiving end of three or four, same as Ciaran Whelan)

i retracted that statement as you know LL as it was posted in a rage as i thought our world cup hopes had been flushed down the toilet.

and i didnt defend ciaran whealan, i think he should have been banned, but you  could say so should the westmeath player for his shocking late tackles. any player who strike another player should be banned the way they are in every other sport except GAA. it makes a joke of the whole organisation.
