The game was filthy AND cynical back in my day. There was a lot more 50/50 situations and the 3rd man tackle was thriving. realdub (Dublin) - Posts: 8571 - 02/10/2017 23:56:14 2052593 Link 0 |

I agree it would be open to abuse but its certainly worth a try.It would mean that a competent ref would be essential.

This is all cause a few Dublin players pulled down Mayo players right? What's the big problem the ref stop the play then black carded Kilkenny so we had 13 players on the field and play resumed with Clarke kicking the ball out, what's the actual problem here I don't get it the ref allowed another 3 minutes of added on time it was just unlucky for Mayo that Clarke kicked the ball out of play and Mayo couldn't get it back. I don't see what the big issue is with what happened? It was dealt with and the game resumed. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 04/10/2017 11:22:47 2052940 Link 1 |
I wanted Dublin to win so I don't really care about mayo. The issue is that every team now do it when they are winning. It is awful as a neutral, even worse as an opposition supporter but worst of all is the opposition players. Its not nice and yet we see it in the majority of games. Forget about Dublin. Its something that needs to be stopped somehow. I don't have any proper ideas but the black card isn't the answer. If the repercussions we more serious then I don't see it happening, atleast not to the same extent. dstuction (Donegal) - Posts: 1209 - 04/10/2017 12:02:38 2052958 Link 0 |
I agree with certain situations but with the Dublin one the ball was not in play so I don't see the big deal, the ref took action and the game went on. Clarke messing up the kick out had nothing to do with what happened just before that
