The red card was harsh but Kilpatrick gave the red a decision to make
No square ball.

Yes, he did. The decision should have been yellow

[LeoMc]

It's difficult to tell, player never would have got the ball In The first place if he didn't come across the square then out he didn't receive it on the square.

There is no prohibition on being in the square, only on receiving the ball in the square if certain conditions are met.

Tbh I don't understand how anyone thinks that's a red card. Clumsy and a yellow at best / worst.

The square ball was wrong too. League Sunday showed it up well.

We often hear this trotted out.
A tug on the jersey gives the ref a decision to make.
The wrong decision would be to issue a red card. Just as it is here.

IMO, The tackle was careless, he made contact with the players head, albeit with his chest, and there didn't appear to be any attempt to play the ball. In real time that give the Ref a decision to make.

In rugby it would not even be in doubt as there is an onus on the tackler that is not in our game.

Somebody tell Leo this isn't rugby. Hope Leo isn't a ref. How anyone could justify that as red is beyond me, outside of having done something in the pushing shoving afterwards.

If Kilpatrick had have been wearing a Dublin or Kerry jersey he would never have been sent off. He probably wouldn't even have received a yellow card. This is the problem with referring. Tyrone never ever get the same decisions as other counties even from the same referees. Croke park absolutely need to step in and fix this two tier refereeing.

looks like he struck out in the pushing and shoving afterwards. Nothing in it tho and f the red was that it would have been soft

It was a yellow all day long, very harsh sending off and will in all likelihood be overturned

Didn't think it was a red but it was totally unnecessary for him to go flying in like that. Conn is an excellent player but Tyrone have been undermined by these red cards from daft challenges too often the last couple of years. Needs to be stamped out by management.

Good win for Tyrone with so many new faces. Tougher tests to come but great to have two points on the board at this stage.

[time ticking away]

Was the red card not for a punch thrown in the scuffle after the tackle ?

[Armagh18]

As much as it pains me to defend Tyrone that was definitely not a red card tackle

Where did I say it was rugby? I said the red was harsh and the tackle was careless but the Ref makes the call in real time and if you are clumsy you run a risk.

[Taylor]

Absolutely no way in hell it was a red for the initial tackle/hot.

Could the red have been for the jab to the face when there was some handbags afterwards?

[seafoid]

Does any team actually wanrt to win the League under the new system?
Does winning the League benefit anyone ?

And why are Derry 5/2?
