raise his hand in the dying stages of the Tyrone Monaghan game as if to signal a free in to Monaghan only to then allow a play on situation? Triple H (Meath) - Posts: 551 - 12/08/2018 17:43:56 2132319 Link 6 |

give a close in free to Tyrone late in the game when it was Colm Kavanagh who shoulder-charged into the chest of a Monaghan player ? THE_SNAPPER (Louth) - Posts: 2019 - 12/08/2018 17:49:48 2132322 Link 5 |

Maybe he realized Kieran Hughes was trying to hoodwink him and he just caught himself on in time. He'd already let himself be hoodwinked by Conor Mc Carthy latching on to,I think Ronan Mc Namee,and pulling Mc Namee to the ground and winning himself and Monaghan a free and getting the Tyrone player yellow carded. Although I often wonder the same thing about past incidents. I keep waking up at night because of Maurice Deegans laughing devilish face appearing to me in my sleep. It's always preceded by visions of big Padraig Mc Nulty being brought down in the Kerry goal mouth and being yellow carded for it in the 2015 semi final. Swings and roundabouts lads. seanie_boy (Tyrone) - Posts: 4235 - 12/08/2018 18:05:29 2132341 Link 0 |

He was telling Hughes to get up I thought. It certainly didn't look like a free to me. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13718 - 12/08/2018 18:32:35 2132356 Link 1 |

Nah, McNamee dragged him down, very lucky not to see black. Ref was poor today, zero consistency Gavvygavgav (Dublin) - Posts: 383 - 12/08/2018 19:37:28 2132377 Link 5 |

That was my view of it also.

Until referees are told to apply the rules and not interpret them as they see fit there will never be consistency. ulsterrules (Donegal) - Posts: 259 - 12/08/2018 19:58:10 2132388 Link 1 |

The question is was there actually a foul committed which merited a free in? tyroneed (Tyrone) - Posts: 753 - 12/08/2018 20:07:10 2132393 Link 0 |

It was a foul alright by mc Namee and maybe it was even yellow card level offense but you could clearly seeMc Carthy latching on and taking him down with him. He clearly closes his arm in around mc names wrist. It was a free and yellow might suffice but you could see it was an attempt to make the most of it and possibly get player a black card.

Really shocking standard of refereeing yet again today. Somebody needs to sit him down and explain the black card rule. It's not good enough to have incompetence like that at this level. Daith (Kildare) - Posts: 1171 - 12/08/2018 20:16:32 2132401 Link 2 |

Same ref that relegated Donegal by allowing 124 steps for the equaliser in the last minute v Mayo! Tir Conaill Abu (Donegal) - Posts: 1671 - 12/08/2018 20:25:51 2132409 Link 3 |

First five minutes Colm Cavanagh plays a ball over Ryan Mcanespie's head. Cool Cavanagh grabs Ryan and pulls him down on top of him. (It's showing clearly in the Montague at the start of the Sunday game). Referee then yellow cards Mcanespie. shaggylegend (Monaghan) - Posts: 1928 - 12/08/2018 22:08:14 2132445 Link 2 |

Ref was very poor, some bad calls and no calls, trips, balls being played on the ground, and his positioning for some crucial calls was very poor. And typical for most GAA ref's the third man tackle just seems to be beyond the ability of officials to grasp. Probably best to scrap some of the rules as most ref's don't apply them. And the advantage rule is meant to be just that - an advantage not an excuse for dodging a call. The question is was he inconsistent for both sides? I think over the game his calls/no calls favoured Tyrone. But sure who cares now anyway? arock (Dublin) - Posts: 4898 - 12/08/2018 22:12:01 2132447 Link 0 |

i'd forgotten the fake free he gave against kelly that led to a free in the first half too. The more i see of it the more monaghan were robbed. You could see it in Hughes interview. He was bitterly dissappointed and rightly so. Its one thing to be beaten fair and square but to be robbed like that must be really hard to stomack

The rules of Gaelic football do not get applied in All Ireland semi finals or finals. bennybunny (Cork) - Posts: 3917 - 12/08/2018 22:32:52 2132458 Link 0 |

There were two frees given to Tyrone when players clearly charged monaghan defenders (colm cavanagh and mc cann) and the free award to Peter harte in the first half. None of these were frees and plain to see and all of them were obvious mistakes by the ref. All theses free were scored and that was the difference in a tight game. It's difficult for players/teams to accept this and even more so when the referees performance is beyond reproach. Jonnycee (Longford) - Posts: 185 - 12/08/2018 22:33:38 2132460 Link 0 |

The thing with that one is, Cavanagh gets a black card for deliberate pull down and Tyrone lose their main man. It's so hard to stomach as a Monaghan supporter, but worse for them players who give up their life to dedicate themselves to play for Monaghan. 26 players working in Dublin and one in Belfast their commitment is savage and for Nolan to that is horrific.

8 mins gone and mcmanus lies down and fouls the ball...subsequently monaghan allowed to retain posession and work a score from what should have been a free out to tyrone mayotyroneman (Tyrone) - Posts: 1821 - 13/08/2018 01:06:17 2132495 Link 0 |

I would have thought that a ref first interprets the rule and then applies the rule in that order.
