Quote from: quit yo jibbajabba on June 10, 2026, 02:18:34 PMYes I'd say yesterday was nearly the worst day for our Jeffrey as some of the wife's comments were quite damaging I thought. But wasn't headline news he will have been happy with that

I've been following it on this podcast.

Some of the stuff alleged is quite sick TBH..

Hurling Discussion / Re: Rule changes for hurling

Quote from: DuffGael on June 10, 2026, 11:46:43 PMHurling is in a good place but needs a few tweaks imo, enforce the handpass rule, the ball travels too far, 65s were designed to restart the game not be an easy score-hit it like a sideline cut, still scorable but difficult and finally the free hand grab of opponents needs clamped down on

Which James Owens did on Sunday and is being castigated by all and sundry barring the odd exception like Daithi Regan and a few others.

Simpleton comment.

Speaking of simpletons, here's Bin Lorry on this very subject:

In a two horse race if both are bought off by APAIC and supported by the Zionist media moguls then that 60% don't really have a choice.

Step out of APAIC control, openly voice resistance to Israel's genocide and you will get the full wrath of that establishment.

Quote from: DaleCooper on June 09, 2026, 04:09:18 PM"For the first time in two decades of polling, more Americans sympathize with Palestinians (41%) than Israelis (36%), a reversal from 55% to 26% in Israel's favor before to the October 7th attacks. Even 57% of Republicans aged 18 to 49 now disfavor Israel"

God bless Bibi?

Won't matter.

AIPAC will grease the palms of their politicians to keep spending US tax dollars to fund Israels wars.

Just as Thomas Massie.

Something like 6 grand if you do it without swaps

You'd be cheaper flying over and taking pictures of them all.

Maybe not...

Probably too big to fit on a wall planner like we had as young fellas!

Do Paninininini still do the sticker albums and the packs of stickers for each team.

It'd be like a small encyclopedia for this one.

"Between 1st January and 31st December 2024 there were 979 persons arrested and processed through custody for at least one sexual offence.185 custody records were for persons with a nationality other than UK.

794 custody records were for persons with a UK nationality. Sexual offences include rape, sexual assault, sexual activity, sexual grooming/sexual communication with a child, voyeurism and indecent exposure."


I suppose the conference from that data is that approximately 20% of these types of crimes are carried out by foreign nationals, but that 20% does include Irish and lots of other European countries if you dig further down.

There's a good chance the Sir and former leader of the DUP is one of those statistics.



What happened in North Belfast is shocking and yes, I'd like to know that anyone let onto this island isn't escaping justice elsewhere, but we'll wait and see who this lad is and his criminal background.

Will Hamas support the resistance in the North?

Dibs on the paraglider!

fúck paragliders those Shahed drones are what you want.

Irish Army should be cancelling the orders for those fighter jets and get onto Tehran and get some in place for a fraction of the price.

Galway looked impressive enough on Saturday evening, pacey and accurate from play.

Dublin, Dublin, Dublin!!! They don't seem to be able to string two good performances together.
Granted the injuries beforehand, Rushe patently wasn't fully fit and then Crommie and McKenna all going off in the first half didn't help.

But, they were caught out by Galway to a man traipsing down the park to leave Rabbitte all on his own with Paddy Smyth only for company. I found that staggeringly nieve at this level, not one Dub had a wee think to himself that maybe they should stay back and sweep in front of Paddy or offer some resistance when Galway broke right up the middle for their goal with not a blue jersey within 40 metres of them..


They will still fancy a good crack at Clare though and if they do manage to clear up some of those injuries, who knows.


Galway will either be facing Clare or Cork, who you'd think will have too much for Offaly and will have four weeks to get Rory Burke back and Daithi's knee to heal up..

If Dublin beat Clare I'd presume there'll be no semi-final draw needed and the Dubs would be facing Limerick.

Quote from: Saffrongael on June 07, 2026, 03:40:02 PMOwens ruined that

By applying the rules?


Common sense incoming.

He did make mistakes but blowing for the spare arm tackles wasn't one of them.


Fair play to Ben O'Connor he didn't go at Owens after the final whistle.

Collins didn't fancy the long range shot.  Injury time was was well over when that free was awarded.

He'll be castigated for it.

Technically correct but game isn't flowing
He's blowing things that aren't frees also. Too fond of the whistle today.

Players are buying frees alright.
