Galway shafted there.

Punishment didn't fit the crime for that penalty and black card.

Fair enough if it was cynical foul.

Brendan

Naw lads as good a football championship its been, I'll look back on it with bitterness since it'll be Kerry or Dublin winning it yet again. Dodgy reffing decisions helping both of them this weekend to

Is there nobody better in Galway than Gleeson? Surely.

Galway can rightly feel a bit shafted here

Sean Guidera is a class player off the bench. He should get at least 20+ mins.

All Dublin needs was their manager it seems. They had 5/6 men bck not playing in the league or early championship rounds. Whoever was on O'Callaghan got roasted. Think that be the end of Joyce, maybe Comer and Walsh.

Black card is a fair enough call. Penalty wasn't.

Especially when you see what happened the other end.

What for? It wasn't a pulldown.

Doesn't have to be. The refrence to pull down is no longer in rules.

Stop making shit up!


Black Card InfractionsThe sanction targets intentional and cynical fouls. Specific offenses include:Deliberate pull-down or trip: Intentionally pulling or tripping an opponent to the ground.Deliberate body collide: Taking an opponent out of the play after they have offloaded the ball.Holding up an opponent: Cynically holding an opponent to disrupt an attacking play (without necessarily dragging them to the ground).Contributing to a melee: Joining a scuffle as the third or subsequent player to escalate the situation.Abuse of officials: Using threatening or aggressive language/gestures towards a match official.

You can see why Galway have lost 2 AI finals in recent years.

Yup though Kerry have the best team. What a misser opportunity for Tyrone...imagine having Dubs in a final GAHHH

Wildweasel74

Tyrone dont seem any better than Dublin. It be Donegal kicking themselves this year.

Main Street

The Dubs closed out that game imperiously, the dubs are back. Other highlights from the weekend, Mayo tackling intensity in the 2nd half and Tyrone taking it to the wire with some brilliant point scoring.

Rossfan

Walsh a disaster, Comer was as well left on the bench.

Media can start creaming themselves now.
