It's farcical stuff and you have to feel for the Dublin team jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20600 - 26/09/2016 15:16:03 1919299 Link 0 |
Yes its unfair - yes its unfortunate but to me it is a case of hard luck and a case of a poor decision by an official ruanua (Donegal) - Posts: 4966 - 26/09/2016 15:39:23 1919311 Link 0 |
To be honest if hawkeye was even in use would it have been referred to??? One umpire waved it wide, the other didn't argue and the referee agreed so. A horrendous umpiring decision but how often have we seen that before. The LGFA's reasoning for not employing hawkeye at their games is rubbish though, if they want their games played in the country's best stadium then they should employ the best facilities therein Richieq (Meath) - Posts: 3734 - 26/09/2016 15:45:02 1919314 Link 1 |
I think you would have more grounds for this game to be replayed than the laois v Armagh qualifier this year. In that game the official doing fourth official was to blame for allowing an extra substitution take place, the substitution had no impact on the course of the game but the game was ordered to be replayed. hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 26/09/2016 16:16:21 1919330 Link 0 |
You are 100% correct. The chances and possession Dublin had are irrelevant. Dublin scored a point and it was waved wide and lost a low scoring game by 1 point. There should be a replay. If there is no replay there should be an asterix beside the 2016 All Ireland Ladies Title *Both teams scores equal but Cork awarded the title due to umpire error. It will be similar to 2010 Leinster Championship.

In Laois Armagh, the Laois management have to take a huge slice of the blame. They were the guys who put on the extra sub. We had this discussion at the time and I remember finding out that keeping track of a teams substitions was not part of the officials duties.

And the 1928 All-Ireland Final

Unfortunately there is no provision in the rule book for what happened yesterday. There is a provision for using too many subs therefore I replay could be granted during the summer. It's unfair on the Dublin team, as well as the Cork team who'll forever have a question mark after 2016's win, but often life is not fair.

Dublin's misses after the fact are irrelevant to the argument. The only thing that is relevant is that the point wasn't given. It was the wrong call but the decision was made and the rest of the game was played knowing that no score had been given. There should be no replay. It'd be a terrible precedent to be set. Imagine a team playing a game knowing that there'd been a contentious score. They wouldn't know if they need to win by 1 point or 2. Decisions have to be made at the time and stuck to. The real issue is why was Hawkeye not used, did the LGFA decide not to pay for the technology to be calibrated for a ladies ball and if so does that mean they sold their players short?

Kildare keeper came off her line in saving the penalty. Kildare should give a Clare a replay Superglue (Kerry) - Posts: 1283 - 26/09/2016 16:53:00 1919354 Link 0 |
Thats like saying if a player committs a foul and the ref sees it but waves play the player has to take responsibility for the free not being given not the ref. the officials are responsible for officiating the game not players and management so who do you reckon is responsible for the substitutes process taking place if not the sideline official? And what is the sideline official responsible for then during the game ? hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 26/09/2016 17:46:43 1919385 Link 0 |
The real issue is not Hawkeye The real issue is the umpire There was no need to go to Hawkeye for that it wasn't even contentious whatever about the guy on the post the ball went inside the guy the cusack stand side had the best view in the house the camera angle was far worse than his view and it clearly showed it over the bar, he was bang at the bottom corner of the net looking at directly in his vision, the officials involved in the game seem to always get a pardon from critism and immediately it's the gaa the lgfa the Dublin manager the cork manager croke park instead of focusing on the real problem that was did the umpire deliberately not give the point or is he incapable of doing the job correctly when a decision as clear as that he could not get right. hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 26/09/2016 17:55:17 1919393 Link 0 |
Agree the umpire should have got it. The other umpire and ref should also have questioned him but mistakes happen. They'd happen less with Hawkeye. As for Laois footballers their management was definitely to blame. They put on an extra sub, how do they not know how many subs they'd already used. The official probably didn't question it at the time because you know I'd guess he's assume that the team's management would maybe have put some thought into their substitions.

Your book book doesn't really matter. I don't know why some many people feel the onus is on Cork to offer a replay. You think the result was unfair on the Dublin team, but you don't see anything unfair in that! The LGFA are the ones with that power. Let them exercise it.

I think there's some serious blue tint on his glasses. Decisions need to be made at the time of the incident. Those decisions have to be final. I wouldn't consider Cork's win tainted either. They played to the official score and won the game. Bad calls happen all the time and have already happened on the biggest occasions. Saw an old thread there about the 1995 final and Dublin fans calling Tyrone whingers and moaners for the Charlie Redmond incident. So I assume the Dublin posters won't be wanting to lower themselves to that level. Whammo86 (Antrim) - Posts: 4226 - 26/09/2016 21:18:47 1919458 Link 0 |
The referee would actually get a signal from Hawkeye itself to review. It happened in a hurling match this year, a point was given and wasn't contested but the referee went to Hawkeye himself as he got a signal and it turned out to be wide.

I don't think anyone feels cork should offer anything. I don't anyway the same as i don't think Dublin should have to appeal. if something is going to be done the lgfa should come out and say so instead of having both camps in this position hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 26/09/2016 22:05:02 1919477 Link 1 |
This has happened time and again umpires making mistakes when do we have to say I'm kets do something about making umpires improve their performance. Its one thing a sliotar but a football that low you don't need Hawkeye human error is blamed for everything an official does only so much human error before somebody gets dropped or suspended I think has to start happeneing officials. What is the sideline official job id not to regulate subs? hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 26/09/2016 22:11:06 1919479 Link 0 |
So what happens should there be another controversial issue of the same magnitude or the same injustice dished out, allowing the cup to be presented to a county while the de facto all Ireland champions look on, would the Dublin co. board and Jim Gavin or the Mayo co. board and Stephen Rochford accept it as lightly if their county was hoodwinked out of an all Ireland final, I think not. supersub15 (Carlow) - Posts: 2907 - 26/09/2016 23:35:23 1919498 Link 2 |
Im really angry over all this. Its one of the great injustices. I dont blame the umpires . Human error. But its very simple to have a clause called EXCEPTIONAL CIRCUMSTANCES OF INJUSTICE where the injustice is one of FACT not subjective opinion , and order a replay immediately under such a clause. This has been a massive own goal by ladies gaa and cork and their management have not covered themselves in glory either. Malonemagic (Laois) - Posts: 766 - 26/09/2016 23:41:42 1919499 Link 2 |
