3 of my examples were of goals in allireland finals 2 of which we lost by 1 point in the end. We conceded 18 goals in 17 games last year, now some will say that's just bad defending, other top teams wouldn't allow that to happen as they will put a stop to your gallop out around 65. If anything I'd say we're a bit naive when it comes to cynical play really. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 14/02/2020 09:42:13 2267617 Link 0 |
some will say that's just bad defending Some will say " you would say that ". Some will say " you must think we're all naive enough to believe that ". If anything I'd say you're not coding anybody. catch22 (USA) - Posts: 2148 - 14/02/2020 10:11:21 2267623 Link 7 |
The first part of your paragraph which you state as fact, isn't fact at all. It's opinion, unless you have a recording of Mickey Harte's instructions. He might well have told McDonnell to wrestle with Clifford and try to get him booked, but players have done this plenty times of their own volition. Clifford is very unlucky to have been booked based on the amount of footage we have seen. But we haven't seen the full incident. Only the umpire can tell us what he saw. We all want an end to the two yellows cop out, in scenarios where there's clearly one instigator. This is where refs need their umpires and linesmen to be very vigiliant for the whole game.

Something like, the Sean O Shea's pull down in the last minute of the first game in the final this year to give away an unscorable free as the Dubs were working the ball into a scoring position is an example of cynical play. To be fair though, id have no complaints in the same context if the Dubs had done it as well. As one of the lads was saying every county does it, Kerry increasingly so and they would be mad not to, given the joy you can get out of their back line in open play.

Multi username, I wouldn't say it was an unscorable free that Seánie gave away, it was probably unscorable for Dean rock.

SOS has been getting away with a lot of cynical play the last couple years. Was shy to drag Peter harte off the ball last week.

Did Fergie Kelly mention Clifford incident with umpires in his report? Was a lot of verbals when left the pitch. hamsterdean (Limerick) - Posts: 223 - 14/02/2020 18:12:58 2267727 Link 4 |

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.

Not much of a comic book fan myself, but you being one explains a lot :D

Tyrone played, and beat Kerry last weekend. Game over, and move on. thelongridge (Offaly) - Posts: 1706 - 15/02/2020 13:49:53 2267817 Link 7 |
Offaly approve of this carry on of targeting the oppositions top forward going by your comment and it was seen at first hand today in Drogheda . Sam Mulroy of Louth was the victim of much off the ball attention today from an offaly player in Drogheda but when he gave a little back offaly man falls to ground as if shot multiple times and gets the bold Sam a red card at a crucial stage late in the game . Another example of a forward not protected by officials with the underhand tactics of the offaly backs been rewarded . hurler32 (Limerick) - Posts: 867 - 16/02/2020 16:26:56 2267966 Link 2 |
