Dublin Vs Meath

[Over the Bar]

It was a game between the 2 teams most associated with being happy to get violent if thats whats required to get a reult.   Meath have cleaned their act up since Boylan's departure but under Caffery, violence almost seems to be condoned/encouraged from the manager & backroom team.  Helpfully the media seem to ignore/accept it as being part of the Dublin/Pillar psyche.

scandalous comments agorm. If you're condoning crowd violence towards players which you seem to be - then we may as well fold the tents up and pack it up. I'd advise you to re-read the post and edit where appropriate. Whelan may be  a clown at times but a sc**bag is stretching it- he deserved to walk- no complaints but my definition of a sc**bag is a coward in the crowd throwing stuff from a distance at a player. should be fecked out of the association- he was escorted out by the guards- good enough for him.
i agree with some fo the above- i'm tired of all this shite surrounding the dublin team- it's time for caffrey to start acting like a manager and rein things in - because this is not going to land us the big one.

I am not condoning violence and I didnt say that, I just said that I felt the same way myself though I didnt mean hot tea!!- that isnt condoning it. Obviously it is wrong to throw anything - hot liquids much more so and I think that people sholuld not be allowed bring hot liquids out into the stands in future.

Louth Exile, thats a good point about our reliance on GG. In the first half he seemed to be the only one that could get on the ball around midfield and pick out a teammate or drive forward into attack. I couldn't understand why he was being played so deep in defence especially when we had a spare man. Bray ended up around the 40 when he should have been much closer to goal. It's easy to be a hurler on the ditch but when you have a spare man you don't negate this advantage by driving balls from your half back line. You carry it forward to draw men in and create overlaps in order to get a man into space to shoot. When Meath actually did this towards the end of the 1st half and the end of the 2nd half, thats when we got all our scores.

The book needs to be thrown at Dublin. No point pontificating about the Aussies when the Dubs are at it on a regular basis, especially in the NFL.

Hot dinks should be banned from the stands full stop.

FFS, Tyrone were a lot of things, diving b4stards etc etc, but they very rarely relied on dirt to win

course not ryan mc menamin was a paradigm of virtue. isn't delusion awonderful a thing.
As regards dublin v louth - i just don't think louth have enough to beat dublin. dublin have a few more options than last year. Connolly as i've said before is the most naturally talented dublin player since keaveney- if he keeps hte head right and that's a big if. Fennell has really come good as well. I don;t think there is much in leinster dublin will fear. i just think kerry are on adifferent level to everyone else and ultimately it's thiers to lose.

Define dirt ?

In my opinion of the entire league campaign, Vaughan's second tackle V Monaghan was the only dirty tackle , Whelan was border line. Missed what brogan did up in Armagh. Today was an all in where Russell had flash backs of Omagh 05 and over reacted

What about Tyrone V Armagh battles during 03,04,05 they wouldn't pass the a Daz challenge .

Oh, would that be the game where all red cards were overturned?

So, where was the dirt in the Canavan/McKeever game?
