No bias, so from the outside looking in, - - I suppose at the end of the day there may be little or no logic to it but, - if Corofin can keep Enna O'Connor quiet, or redundant so to speak it simply means that the Moorefield engine is not firing on all cylinders and Corofin have their home work done, but, if O'Connor is given the space or the opportunity to score 5/6 points it means Moorefield are somewhat in control of the game to the finish, Enna has scored on average 0-08 a game to date, all that said, I think Enna is good for that all important 5/6 points. Let's not forget Roly Sweeney, a great servent to club and county in what is probably his last year as a player, what a time to "call time" PPS, I'm a near neighbour of Kildare, and I see a similarity, somewhere, between Moorefield and my beloved Carlow's GREAT Eire Og team of yesteryear, in that they don't know how to lose. Great credit to Corofin and Moorefield. -------------May the best team win. supersub15 (Carlow) - Posts: 2907 - 16/02/2018 21:36:22 2077510 Link 0 |
Exactly KildareKelly and certainly no one from Kildare has predicted a Moorefield win. The opposite is true of us as regards building up our teams. We have had to many defeats and disappointments in big games to do that. The media do seem to do that at times for whatever reason.

I didnt think moorefield would win kildare never mind leinster so not sure what to expect today. There not the best team in kildare in terms of football but by god they are hard to beat. They gave a fantastic club down there on the curragh, really well run in terms of facilities structures fundraising etc and are an example to many other clubs. Everyone in kildare will be cheering them on today apart from Sarsfields of course.. 11jm11 (Kildare) - Posts: 365 - 17/02/2018 08:54:37 2077562 Link 0 |
Mis-match of a game. Moorefield are very average at best and corofin could win this by 10+ Jonnycee (Longford) - Posts: 185 - 17/02/2018 12:52:49 2077625 Link 0 |
Ridiculous decision to send the Corofin fella off. It was a yellow card and no more. Ulsterman (Antrim) - Posts: 9702 - 17/02/2018 14:03:07 2077639 Link 0 |
Terrible decision for the red card. There has been 3 or 4 far worse tackles totally ignored since AHP (Dublin) - Posts: 323 - 17/02/2018 14:05:00 2077641 Link 2 |
Harsh red card on the Corofin player, on first viewing i dont think he touched him. KY4SAM2015 (Kerry) - Posts: 898 - 17/02/2018 14:19:27 2077648 Link 1 |
Just turned on the game on TG4 to see disgraceful antics of Corofin number nine trying to get opponent sent off , amateur dramatics are missing a diva , 26 minuets gone 2 points to 1 says it all really very poor game so far Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 17/02/2018 14:26:28 2077651 Link 0 |
It has been awful. Moorefield look terrified of doing anything and Corofin still look the more likely to win even with 14 men. Moorfield need a good boot up the **** at half time. Ulsterman (Antrim) - Posts: 9702 - 17/02/2018 14:32:06 2077654 Link 0 |

Kildare full back did the acting, cccc should suspend him, one sided ref in first half, I think Corofin have it in their own hands yet, could do it. suckvalleypaddy (Galway) - Posts: 1669 - 17/02/2018 14:38:40 2077658 Link 0 |
Might be the worst red card I've ever seen. Disgraceful playacting by the Moorefield 3 conned the referee. Marooned (Galway) - Posts: 2215 - 17/02/2018 14:39:41 2077660 Link 1 |
Yes he did. Pity though you didn't see the "disgraceful antics" that led to the Corofin No.14 being sent off. The Moorefield No. 5 pushed the Corofin player into the Moorefield player who was on the ground. What contact there was was minimal but the Moorefield player started holding his head and the ref fell for it.

Honestly didn't see it as turned on game and first sending off had allready happened, I'm a neutral watching hoping to see a good game , disappointed in the game so far and the antics of some players , hate that cheating no matter who's doing it

Correct there was zero contact, conned the ref. is there any retrospective punishment for such actions in these circumstances for the moorefield full back? Watching it live it seemed not much happened and certainly didnt expect to see the red, the ref made a major blunder even though was influenced by the antics of the player. Moorefield still very poor with the ball even with the extra man but will be a major turning point in the game if Moorefield do go on to win.

Hon corofin! Hate to see them lose this over a a ridiculous red card. Ian Burke to get a goal galwayfball (Galway) - Posts: 1678 - 17/02/2018 14:51:15 2077665 Link 0 |
How on earth did that Moorefield defender continue playing? It looked like he was dead, or at least in a coma for a while there. I was expecting a hearse or an ambulance to come onto the pitch for him. And he got up and played on?!?!? Either Easter Sunday has arrived early or he should have been at the IFTA awards.

I'm not a Corofin man but naturally would like to see them win and agree that the No. 9 for Corofin was play acting. But the antics of the Moorefield No.3 were something else. I couldn't agree more, cheating should be called out whoever's doing it.

I doubt there'll be any retrospective sanction. Players play acting aren't making it easy for the ref though. It could be a major turning point alright if Corofin lose. That said, so could Lundy's failure to pass to a team mate when a goal was there for the taking just before half time.
