NFL Division 1 2024

Dublin will be heading home wondering how the hell they lost that game. Lucky enough goal and soft free at the end got mayo the 2pts. The refereeing decisions in games are so inconsistent as O'Shea was fouled 5-10 mins before that and got nothing, then got a soft free immediately afterwards like he was making up for his mistake. Still a decent game for start of February with 2 good teams who will be there or thereabouts when the medals are handed out👏

It was a free, very clever one and he played for it.Minute the man put his hands out on his back, Mayo lad went down.

You could see the free coming before the players even reached the ball. Any county player in that position is going to bend over the ball, slow up a second to try and invite contact, and go down as soon as they feel it. And get the free every time, because you can't push a player as they're bending over the ball.

A small bit of trivia in the Match program for tonight's game.

Dessie Farrell and Seamus Coleman are 1st cousins (their mothers are sisters).

[sans pessimism]

How on earth did Dublin not get a point out of that attack

probably cos they didn't get the same total as Mayo

Didn't know that.

I think it's well known that Dessie's mother is from the Glencolumbkille/Carrick area.

Re: Tyrone v Derry

Does anyone know of a radio station / radio stream that'll likely have this on? Will be at match and want to pick up a commentary.  Not sure if it'll be on  BBC Radio Ulster or not.   Radio Kerry practically seems to have every Kerry game on, and it's a grand job.    I long for the days of Q101.2 and Paddy Hunter!! That was some set up while it lasted .     TIA

Mayo got away with a 45 at the end, clear last touch by a Mayo player

Hard to believe it wasn't given as a 45. Pure dive by Ryan O'Donoghue for the last free.

Doesn't matter, he was in front of defender, dipped was touched and went over... easiest free you'll win. We teach our kids dip the ball you'll win a free!

The free didn't win it either, Dublin fell asleep and it was a clever pass that won it.

You're a ref, is that actually in the rulebook or is it some secret referee union rule that you've brought in?

Tell me, contact on player dipping a ball isn't given? He came from behind, he dipped the ball and there was contact on his back..

You played before?

No never played before. So any contact on a player, no matter how light is a free? Or is it just when you're "dipping".

I was always taught you can't touch a man when he's bending down to pick up the ball. Any contact and its a foul. Silly free to give away and even sillier to go asleep and leave a free man to put it over.

Tell me again how referees don't discriminate against Tyrone.

Start another thread on it sure!

Derry butchering this breeze Tyrone will be much happier so far. Not engaging Tyrone attacks far enough out.

The Junta won't allow it
I must conform.

[Milltown Row2]

Heard that the ref's have a WhatsApp group to discuss ways of discriminate against Tyrone...

The diving gene obviously doesn't skip a generation then...
