Jesus we are killing ourselves in the last two games. Nowhere near clinical enough given the chances we create. Costing us severely. kildare73 (Kildare) - Posts: 854 - 11/02/2018 16:23:24 2075837 Link 1 |
couldn't agree more, Kildare73. i'm blue in the face saying we need a decent free taker - as you'll win sweet FA without one. feeley a very good player but it shouldn't be his job to slot those frees under pressure. division 1 is the level we need to be operating at - it is where you are shown up for your lack of execution - pity we'll be back down in Div 2 next year, where you can get away with those errors (to a certain degree) and that benefits nobody - particularly when it comes to the crunch of championship!!

Wasn't at the game today but sounded like we were a bit unlucky to come away with nothing. Great fighting spirit from the lads to keep coming back. Sending off sounded ridiculous. kildare73 (Kildare) - Posts: 854 - 25/02/2018 16:07:48 2080022 Link 1 |
donegal far better team second half... sending off was a bit mad although one of yer other players was lucky not to be at least black carded after an awful challenge on jamie Brennan

Shoulder to shoulder isn't an awful challenge. Some interesting decisions by the ref but he got that one right.

Got very little luck. Still some silly mistakes and poor decision making, particularly Ben on the goal chance. Harsh call on the gum shield but he still should have had it in. A few positives in that we created a lot of goal chances, a lot less lateral and back passing and fought to the bitter end. Going down to 14 men with a huge wind against them in the second half was always a big ask. Great debut for Kevin Flynn and great to see Sherry coming on after nearly 2 years. Peter Kelly back to his best! St.Conleth (Kildare) - Posts: 1700 - 25/02/2018 17:15:58 2080080 Link 0 |
What was Eoin Doyle at? Madness. Relegation is almost a certainty now. daytona11 (Kildare) - Posts: 4012 - 25/02/2018 17:29:06 2080096 Link 0 |

I have to agree re challenge on Brennan it was shoulder to shoulder. Cannot say the same about the cynical and malicious knee into the back of Ryan McHugh received in the first half. The mouth piece incident was bizzare but there does seem to an order from the top to crack down on the wearing of mouthpieces. I was at the Trench Cup semi finals last weekend and numerous players were ordered off the field and not to return until the mouth piece was in. Similarly in the Mckenna Cup final also last weekend. Kildare should have had at least 5 goals today. They botched a walk in goal with the unnecessary square ball incident. Plus somehow missed a relatively open chance in the second half after the 2 goals they had already scored. panamasam (Australia) - Posts: 2782 - 25/02/2018 19:10:16 2080160 Link 0 |
His ginshield was knocked out of his mouth in a tackle. Was on his way to sideline to get new one when he caught a kick out. He was yellow carded for this. A joke

No. Eoin would have been warned to get a gum shield before he was booked. Fact.

Their in lies the problem. A big learning curve against the 3 northern teams and to be honest their is heart to be taken. In reality making the right decisions a little more often amd we may have beaten all 3. Examples are conways black v monaghan. And doyles red today. We have a lot to build on. A very good young team coming through still. daytona11 (Kildare) - Posts: 4012 - 25/02/2018 20:36:14 2080213 Link 0 |
Looking at ye I thought plenty of ur players had alot of conditioning on them. In terms of the goal chances it has to be said that alot of it came from shambolic Donegal defending where after breaking a tackle Kildare got through far far too easily.

Still think the sending off was harsh. Don't know if he never had one in or whether he lost his original one. When you see what some players get away with it looks like a bit too officious. Still a very good performance in the circumstances, lost last three games by an accumlative 4 points. Lots to build on going forward. kildare73 (Kildare) - Posts: 854 - 26/02/2018 00:52:43 2080306 Link 1 |
can someone clear this up.....how was Kildare goal disallowed in the first half? Dr.Watson (Kildare) - Posts: 208 - 26/02/2018 12:32:52 2080436 Link 0 |
I didn't like the fact that the four umpires were relatives of the ref, his father, his brother, his uncle and his cousin. How was he to get an independent opinion on the disallowed goal? OntheWhiteSide (Kildare) - Posts: 452 - 26/02/2018 18:56:11 2080693 Link 0 |
Eh because they are from neither kildare or donegal.

The attacker is not allowed to enter the square before the last deliberate play of the ball. I believe he had entered before this.

Daytona - I don't believe that's the case anymore. That used to be the old rule. But that square ball rule was done away with about 2 years ago. It is still the case for "dead ball" situations, but not open play. Dr.Watson (Kildare) - Posts: 208 - 26/02/2018 22:03:32 2080764 Link 0 |
Page 76. Technical rule 4.9 part a. You are not allowed enter the square before the final play of the ball. daytona11 (Kildare) - Posts: 4012 - 26/02/2018 22:35:11 2080777 Link 0 |
