Quote from: gallsman on February 04, 2024, 04:23:44 PMThis is an absolutely brutal watch.

Try being at it. Can't believe there weren't at least 5 mins added time given Morgan's antics.

That's a 7/8 point breeze Tyrone should win handy from here. Derry far too passive with Tyrone's attacks trying to let the wind do the work rather than engaging pay the 45.

Ref has let a lot of nailed on frees go for both sides so can't complain much about that.

It's brutal but it would be hard to play decent football in these conditions.
This isn't aging well.... and if the umpire wasn't blind it would be worse for tyrone

Quote from: square_ball on January 28, 2024, 05:05:52 PMThis is pretty pathetic from Roscommon so far. Extra man and offering absolutely nothing.
They've been terrible. Early favorites for relegation on this showing

Quote from: SouthDublinBro on January 27, 2024, 11:13:29 PMFor as seriously as Monaghan seem to take this league, it's incredible that they have only ever won it once before back in the 80s. No Sams in that county either.
That ride you didn't get in Monaghan is still haunting you I see

Quote from: SouthOfThe Bann on January 21, 2024, 04:58:03 PMGlen didn't deserve that but that Conor Glass goal worthy of winning any game.

You'd nearly feel sorry for the Rossies.... Nearly.
dont know about that. They had a lot of ball but kept butchering the chances. Bridgets were super efficient but just didnt have enough

Quote from: Wildweasel74 on December 13, 2023, 01:27:50 AMMight be used as a punter and kick offs, but he too slow to be the goalkicker, I watched Nfl for 30+yrs and your kick time is literally 2 secs.
Apparently he is seen as a potential FG kicker and kick off kicker and not a punter (read that somewhwere). I get what you're saying about him being slow but its all about timing. If they get all the timing stuff worked out properly there's no reason why he can't kick the ball a split second after it is set by the holder

Quote from: SaffronSports on December 12, 2023, 03:04:51 PMIf one of these lads make it to the NFL they're earning a minimum of $660,000 a year under the league rules. Best of luck to them.
The starters on the top teams are getting $4 to $5 million a year so its a fantastic opportunity for these lads.

in NFL you have 1 job - kick the ball over the bar. A snapper will throw the ball backwards to the holder who positions the ball and then the kicker kicks it over the bar. This all has to happen really quickly as there's 11 250lb monsters charging toward the kicker trying to kill him. You'd have to think Beggan's leg is strong enough. I'll follow whoever he signs for.

A combine is basically an open training audition where all the prospects go through their plays while scouts from all 32 NFL teams are watching.

Scotstown went for a goal when a point would have levelled it. Not sure Glen were much better to be honest. Fine margins
