It's on the latter only, hence all the controversy.
Thanks. Not based in Ireland, so only aware of the controversy in an overall sense, not specific games

I really don't understand where this "penalties have no place in the GAA" nonsense comes from. Name me any sport that doesn't have a tie breaker. It comes across as typical anti- soccer rubbish.
Yes, but a tie breaker could be kicking 45s or throwing the ball up between two players, it does not have to be penalties.
They had this and people complained.
What's the difference in taking 45s and taking penalties, besides the fact that those terrible soccer hooligans have penalty shootouts? That's what this is really all about.

"The current drink-driving limit is a BAC of 50mg. This means 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100 millilitres of blood. For professional, learner and novice drivers the limit is a BAC of 20mg. Most people will have a BAC of 20 to 50mg after 1 standard drink."
From the HSE website. No one should be driving after 6 alcoholic drinks.
according to Drinkaware.ie the limits for a blood test and a urine test are slightly different
it 67 milligrammes of alcohol per 100ml of urine
This was urine sample of 414mg of alcohol per 100ml .. so a rough calculation is just over 3 pints would get you there .. not quite 'an enormous amount of alcohol' as the article states.. but i'm sure time & body size etc all affect this.
No one should be driving after half a pint if they want to stay within the law

6 times over.
If accurate, thankfully nobody was hurt or worse.

Hannon is now media savvy so well able to throw out a statement showing his embarrassment at such a tweet when he was young and stupid and easily led, people develop and learn all the time and change their views regardless of what age they are.
This boxer on reflection at some point may change hers and that's a good thing too. As for her actually having a PR person are you sure she has?
Quotebut surely her agent/PR person/someone in her backroom team would have discussed this with her since October

Interesting topic and something I've read up on before. I recall there being 12 protestants who have clubs named after them, and that isn't including Douglas Hyde who has Roscommon's stadium named after him. The 12 are Henry Gratten, Wolfe Tone, Charles Stewart Parnell, Roger Casement, Henry Joy McCracken, John Mitchell, Watty Graham, Lord Edward Fitzgerald, Robert Emmett, Thomas Davis, William Smyth O'Brien, and Thomas Russell. Mitchell in there would a contentious one now though.
Closer to home for me, Cavan has some lovely names too. Drung Dalcassians, Drumlane Sons of O'Connell, Mullahoran Dreadnoughts, Maghera MacFinns, Killeshandra Leaguers. A lot of others went by the wayside when you had multiple clubs in a parish and they end up dissolving or amalgamated. Loughduff Millesians, Loughduff Volunteers, Finea Knights of Freedom, Killeshandra Fontenoys, Doogarry Raparees are some who don't exist anymore. Ballyconnell First Ulsters (initially Ballyconnell Joe Biggars) are now called Kildallan too.
Cavan oddly has a few names which are more associated with soccer. Ramor United (which was a uniting of 3 clubs in the same parish), and Laragh United. Lacken Celtic and Cootehill Celtic too. Cootehill also wear green and white hoops, as the club was founded by emigrants returning from Glasgow, and founded the GAA club with a nod to Glasgow Celtic with the name and club colours

The knee injury sustained by Finlay Bealham in the first half in Rome has ruled him out of the remainder of the tournament. The Connacht prop had started every match in the Six Nations to date in Tadhg Furlong's absence.

McGeeney made an interesting suggestion a few weeks ago ref. the league being a great competition, said he'd love to see it in a home and away format with 14 games. That would be some league in fairness, though the calendar couldn't accommodate it as it currently stands.
If it was a 14 game League ,what type of Championship would it be? Teams are guaranteed to play 5 games in the Championship this year with the new system. Split season won't be changed.
The AFl is played as home and away 22 games March to September. But that is their focus. Gaa players have club games too.
