Ball went directly into net so not a square ball.

That doesn't matter.

Ball went directly into net so not a square ball.

That's not the rule.
Rule states that from set play an attacking player cannot enter the square before the ball.
There is nothing in the rules about touching the ball.
Correct decision.

It didn't and is actually irrelevant if it did or not. The Kerry forward was attempting to get to the ball and was in the square before the ball. Square ball.

A player can be in the square distracting a player or contesting the ball, doesnt have to touch it, to be a square ball, least that the way it was when i played. Not the day or yesterday right enough.

Ignorance of the rules here

Kerry corner forward standing in the square before the ball kicked in, silly, ball ended up in the net too. When Galway win it last?

Goal probably should have stood.

It doesn't matter whether she was inside when the ball was kicked or not.Its whether she was in the square before the ball arrived into the square that matters.
And she clearly was so it was a correct decision.

Said it many times, square ball is impossible to adjudicate when it's tight and should be got rid of.  Causes more rows than it solves.  That said, today's was straight forward.
Well done to Antrim, thought they were going to kick themselves out of it.  Entertaining open game.

Showing the replay there a few times. She still looks in the square,but hard to argue with a screenshot.

TG4 showed it but the ball had left the girl's foot by about 5ft and the girl moved into suare.

But when kicked, she was outside.

This is irrelevant. From a free, attacking players cannot enter the square before the ball.

So if a free in a game have everyone on top of keeper? That's messy. The amount of comments I see online of people saying why can't there be one square ball rule like men's football. It's the exact same.

Adjudication is only half the issue. The bigger problem, as repeatedly evidenced on this board, is that many, many people are proudly and completely ignorant of the actual rule.

Our ladies jersey far nicer than current senior mens.

They sure are but would easy to be better than that abomination of hoopery.
Great win today and lovely to see a Ros captain lifting an All Ireland Cup in HQ.
Mens teams please copy.

What's so special about the keeper?
