That game has ended Jarlath's "Save Gaelic Football" committee before it has even met.

Fair play to all involved.

Except Conor Lane. He was shocking.

Off the ball and raised forearm. Clear red.

Very, very unlike him but there's no getting away from it, regardless of whether he was provoked or the Derry man made a meal of it.

As for Small, I have absolutely no idea what he did, but he definitely deserved to see red. Family tradition. Johnny Cooper should have walked as well.

Derryman forever

What more do the critics want.
That game had everything.

Quote from: Milltown Row2 on March 31, 2024, 06:19:03 PMNot sure how Derry lost that.

Dublin have a keeper who's done well for shot stopping so far in this game.

They didn't.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Seems a load of Tyrone people want frees not to be awarded against teams playing Derry because at some point, possibly not even in the same game, a Derry man might have got away with a foul.

Quote from: imtommygunn on March 31, 2024, 06:48:35 PMYeah felt bad for Fenton. He has lost it twice that I have ever seen - twice against Derry this year too.

Don't think it was a red card and I know it's a cliche but he isn't that type of player.

Raised hands though.

It's not about the handful of the best teams playing good games though. It's the rest.

Never a red card, but a foul and a yellow. Play should have been stopped and Derry given a free. The goal should never have happened.

gallsman

Lads would you ever give over. Fenton charged at him off the ball and hit him with a raised forearm in the neck. No other option than red.

No, not for me. Very soft. The issue is why play wasn't stopped as soon as it happened.

imtommygunn

Textbook red. Still feel sorry for him but rules are rules.

Caught him high and off the ball, stupid enough but yer man made a meal of it too. Presume Lane was ahead of the incident following the play and the linesman seen it.

The ref didn't see it, so play continued till a break in play, informed by his linesman's dished out the card.

This is why armchair ref's need to read the rules every now and then
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

Quote from: Truthsayer on March 31, 2024, 05:14:55 PMCan we assume Dublin defence be much tighter in the championship? Derry could/should have 5 goals..

Can imagine so as they won't be retaining the All Ireland be defending in the manner they have done today. 

Unless there are retirements, the defensive line has McCaffrey, McCarthy, Gannon, Fitzsimons and Cluxton all to return.

Dublin are missing the old guard. In the build up the media said this team would wipe the floor with everyone. Now they are beat they are missing x y or z. McCaffrey isn't a starter now. McCarthy, cluxton and Fitzsimmons maybe but they are old and will they be an improvement and they haven't played a tap all year.

Fenton silly but Derry man made a meal of it - some Derry lads loved pointing these things out in the past though they'll be quiet about this one I'm sure.

Fair play to Derry - great game and they deserved the victory in the end. Look forward to seeing them play a full strength Dublin in the Summer.
