Replying To westkerry: "Its on OTB , all over twitter." Cheers - not on Twitter and couldn't locate via Google earlier but seen it there on OTB. I presume the red was given for the dig in the rib before they went down? Offside_Rule (Antrim) - Posts: 4058 - 01/03/2019 17:24:59 2169219 Link

It's obviously not just Crokes/Buckley that have benefited from such appeals, but this incident highlights the issue again. Does there have to be any public explanation as to why the suspension was overturned? I.e. Did he get off on a technicality or was the evidence inconclusive? I just feel it calls the credibility of the whole process into question if there's no detail provided. WanPintWin (Galway) - Posts: 2030 - 01/03/2019 19:20:55 2169243 Link
Replying To clondalkindub: "It was pathetic and I don't want anyone missing missing a club final and it's great he's not BUT Tv pictures from behind the goal clearly show him punching the Longford player. I don't get how he got off? Everyone on here two years ago after the Connolly incident told me a million times "rules are rules" ????? So basically like we all knew at the time Connolly was witch hunted from the get go and nothing was going to stop them getting their man." Didn't Connolly get off with an even worse incident in the allireland semifinal in 2011 clon? So I don't know where you're getting the Connolly witch hunt from. If you want to see what a witch hunt looks like look what happened to Paul Galvin back in the day . KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 02/03/2019 10:19:53 2169354 Link
As a Corofin fan I'm glad he was reinstated as it's always best when two teams have their full compliment of players. May the best team win. Trump2020 (Galway) - Posts: 2111 - 05/03/2019 12:10:29 2170363 Link
Just thinking and this maybe a bit harsh but imo Crokes weakest forward is the only Kerry player they have right now up front in Burns, that's how strong Crokes forwards are and Burns is a good player. This is going to be some final hopefully the weather is good. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 11/03/2019 11:02:10 2171581 Link

Weather for Croke Park on Sunday: WNW to NW wind around 20mph with gusts of 35mph Temperature 5-6 degrees C but to feel colder with the wind (0-2 degrees) Senior Final will start with a mix of sun and clouds and the chance of a shower but should be sunny and clearer skys by time the game is finishing.

Replying To clondalkindub: "Ah when is it not on Paddies Day? Am I harsh on Burns or would you agree?" That's true, and ya I agree with you about burns, if his form doesn't improve drastically he won't get on the Kerry starting 15 as his cousin Dara Moynihan hasn't put a foot wrong yet with the seniors and had the number 10 spot sewn up at the minute.

Thanks offsiderule , I knew it was going to be bad down here in the south west but wasn't sure what it would be like over in the Middle East.

Replying To clondalkindub: "Ah when is it not on Paddies Day? Am I harsh on Burns or would you agree?" Clondalkin id say hes a good player who can win a lot of ball but he needs to improve his shooting. He is in great shape and will give kerry and crokes a lot of energy around the middle. westkerry (Kerry) - Posts: 1250 - 11/03/2019 14:31:24 2171654 Link

Yeah its early enough to be getting an accurate picture of next Sunday but that's from a site I use in general for longer term forecasts as I find it usually is pretty good. Will check it again closer to the time but heres the link: link Offside_Rule (Antrim) - Posts: 4058 - 11/03/2019 14:44:02 2171659 Link

That's how strong Kerry are upfront. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 11/03/2019 16:09:41 2171679 Link

It's not that his form is bad I just think the 5 other Crokes forwards are better which tells you how strong a team they are. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 11/03/2019 16:18:54 2171681 Link

The crokes are strong up front alright clon, when you think gooch can only get on for the final 10 mins in games. Looney O'Leary Shaw and Brosnan are excellent and I'd have gooch and Jordan kiely ahead of him from the dubs but I'd have an on form burns ahead of Gavin O'Shea . Jays they have a seriously strong forward line alright but corrofin are excellent at the back as well. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 11/03/2019 18:30:11 2171709 Link
