Down Club Hurling & Football

I don't think it's Kilcoo bashing, that makes it sound like it's not justified. Unsavoury incident, not in the spirit of the game but not the only team who has someone in their squad that's capable of doing the same thing. We all have at least one. How we remove it is the key and I don't have the solution here.
Not sure there can be retrospective action either?

Agree every team has them. Kilcoo are just high profile team at the minute and any incident gets a lot of attention. The carryduff kilcoo wasnt a dirty game. A good game by 2 good teams.

In the last 12 months, 3 clear videos have been shared of their t***pish antics... Burren, Carryduff with Brannagans cheapshot (and ran away), and now next example on Monday night.

Carryduff were the aggressors on Monday night and when Kilcoo upped it they couldn't live with them, Burren and Kilcoo were both guilty in last years match but we won't talk about Burren

Poor Kilcoo, every club they ever play against from about U16 up instigates stuff against them.

Why is all the talk about this incident? Was there not a few sent off in the Glenn v saval match. I dont see any threads on this.....

Kilcoo wasn't involved so it gets overlooked, seen the video of incident in saval game on twitter but it has been took down now

The county champions up to their usual dirty tricks at the weekend there, nothing less than we have come to expect from them.

You land the wrong way on someone's head or neck, you can drastically and even potentially permanently alter someone's life. The day that is deemed to be acceptable in the pursuit of 'success' then its a game I'd no longer want to be associated with.

That kind of shit is really bad. I don't understand how that boy got away with it - it should be a lengthy ban too. That club do seem to have their fair share of incidents like that from the outside looking in. Doing what it takes to win is fine when you're slowing games down, doing cynical fouls which aren't hurting people etc but when you are putting peoples personal safety at risk it's gone too far and tbh it is what a referee should be there to prevent.

Not much intelligence on display with that reply. Attempting to injure other players in order to win a football match is quite pathetic. And kneeling on a man's head is nothing but cowardly. Doesn't take a brave man to do that.

you can play dirty and hard within rules of game kneeing someone in the neck is assault

Has anyone watched a Down GAA TV game using the browser on a firestick? Or is the only way to get it on a TV to cast or attach a HDMI cable to a laptop?
