Antrim Hurling

[Last Man]

Was that not very harsh of you MR2 as to quote yourself ..."Owen did a fine job, christ if he were to blow for every infringement we wouldn't have any players on he pitch FFS. It wasnt on purpose, it could be the angle the referee is seeing it and before you say anything, he can't be at every angle and see everything.

Hilarious...nothing like shooting yourself in the foot...

I can still have a view on things and so can Owen if he were watching a game. If my view doesn't sit well with someone then fine. I'm just giving my point. Who's right? Haven't seen too many posters post something here that they thought was wrong, self included.

By me saying he did a fine job doesn't mean that I'll agree with all his calls, it's about what he sees that counts, try it sometime

Yes, try it sometime!!!!! then see what you think

It seems you're right as always MR2 because all i did, like yourself, was post what i thought was right , my opinion, giving my point. My view was that he was inconsistent but silly me for saying such...Its all about the angles...i get it now.I bow to your knowledge.

Whether or not to allow a quick puc out/free/penalty/slideline is up to the referees discretion. There is no rule that players must wait for the whistle to restart the game there for it was at his discretion that the penalty was retaken. It was entirely his choice to have the penalty retaken. Dodgy penalty in last years final, dodgy penalty against St. Galls which, at his discretion, was taken twice. Maybe he'll hit the next one himself??

He'd miss

I thought last years penalty at the time where I watched it was very soft, but when I watched it on tv it was a clear penalty JJ

What referee would you like JJ?

Sure I think we all know you're the best MR2....never wrong and you know your angles better than anyone. We'll just call you the protractor from now on.

What does it say about other players encroaching within the D when a penalty is taken?

If it is a defender, can it be retaken and if an encroaching forward scores on a rebound, is it a free out?

2.3 A penalty puck shall be taken at the centre
point of the 20m line and the semi-circular arc,
and only three defending players may stand
on the goal-line. All other players, with the
exception of the player taking the puck, shall
be outside the 20m line, and shall not cross
the 20m line or the arc until the ball has been
struck. If a defending player(s) fouls before
the ball is struck and a goal does not result,
the referee shall allow the penalty puck to be retaken

can't see anythin about a defender attacker but this link will get you the guide on the right side its part 2 you want

I don't remember any dodgy penalties awarded in last years final, I remember the one stonewall penalty that was awarded.

[Milltown Row2]

I am not saying it wasn't a penalty but it was certainly closer to 'dodgy' than it was to 'stonewall'.

I thought that at the time and for me was the turning point in the game, as it looked like going away for Loughgiel and the Dall's tails were up. But after watching in on TV later it was a penalty, I'm sure the Loughgiel boys can, well lets say, get it up on youtube or somewhere

[Jesusjones]

SIE lets tell the truth here, Benny Mc Carry could have got a 9.8 for that effort if he'd been at the side of a pool rather than at Casement. You couldn't argue that Loughgiel have brought hurling in Antrim to a new level but the penalty in the final last year was the single biggest factor in the game and it was a dodgy, hotly disputed call. Don't worry MR2 its been watched over and over again in Cushendall, still isn't a penalty!!

[Megaman]

jeez lads, cant believe we are going back to a decision last year, i have my opinion on the decision but i will keep to myself at this stage.

fact is, it was a penalty cause the ref gave it. end off

with regards this year, 
Loughgiel will stuff St John by 10 -15 points
Cushendall should win a tight game against Dunloy

cushendall havent improved since last year IMO so Loughgiel to win final
