Four points in second half for Derry not win any games in croke park.

What do you mean, sure he hit him shoulder to shoulder.

Clearly not when the ref gave a free

I wasn't being serious.

To endure 70 mins of this and not even get a tight finish seems unfair.

Very poor game. Armagh will fancy their chances. Limp finish by derry.

Mickeys excellent record against kerry continues

Quote from: Mourne Red on June 30, 2024, 04:51:36 PMThis isn't me saying he should he in charge as I was very vocal when it all came out about him.

But if Gallagher was still in charge you'd think Derry probably beat Kerry today. Do the Derry natives think Harte gets another year?

Should have been gone before the westmeath game, got some reprieve because of very luckily overcoming Mayo but really doesn't deserve another year especially with the money he is on

An absolute sh*tshow from Derry after all the hype after beating Mayo by penalties. Embarrassing championship from them, 4 defeats, and woeful from Harte... is it performance related or does he collect that big wage?

Derry are 3 forwards short plus 3 of the bench. Gonna have to dip into the last 2/3 U20 teams, they plenty to offer.

Absolutely brutal. Maybe last week caught up with Derry a bit but they were terrible there. Kerry hardly much more and obviously have more in them than that performance, but play like that again and any of them other 3 would beat them.

Overall another poor spectacle in what was a bad weekend for Gaelic football in terms of entertainment. These new rule changes can't come quick enough as the game is in need of something drastic. Hurling is streets ahead.

The RTE pundits won't call it out though.
You mustn't watch RTE pundits often, they often do nothing but moan about the games. First two rounds of the round robin the only analysis was about the system being wrong. Then we'd a really good last round of games and there wasn't a word about it was the system that ensured there was so much riding on the last round!

There's actually been more poor games in the hurling championship this year than in a long time. That's one thing you'll never hear from RTE pundits. But it's not a competition between the codes, although Donal Og and a few others seem to think it is.

Last nights minor match has been better than most senior football games this year..

Jesus Christ I must have missed the champagne football on offer elsewhere over the weekend 😂😂😂

Never seen as much girnin in here, and that really is saying something

I think the win in Mayo granted Mickey Harte a reprieve for another year. But as a manager I think he is a busted flush, I think they need something new and fresh ideas.

Galway the easiest on the eye for the neutral. I hope they go on and win it now.

Dropping knees, sneaky digs and boring as fcuk.  Lost a bit of respect for Derry today.

I watch the pundits regularly even if it's getting more and more difficult. I'm not talking about the system, I'm talking about Gaelic football as a spectacle.

I've seen the atmosphere at matches now being described like being at a cricket match and I'd agree with that. Contrast that to the atmosphere at a hurling match and there is no comparison. I accept people might like the way the game is played at the moment but it's not for me. Take away the tribalism and local rivalries and it's not a great sport to watch the way it's being played at the minute. The FRC was set up to try and fix the problems, if all was well with the sport there would be no need for it.

Don't let a win over the Dubs fool you. They are every bit as defensive. Galway v Donegal will be another arm wrestle of a match.
