Two-Point Winners After The Hooter - 1 Like(s)
Replying To Fionn: "This should revert back to the way it was.
Moving a free up 50m for not handing a ball back needs to be looked at also.
Attacking players are acting the maggot in some instances to trick the ref.
Also, a 2 point score from a free that is brought back outside the 40m arc.
1 point for a 45 versus this, just dont make sense imo." I think there's more subtleties to this that one way or the other. If the hooter goes a team should be able to finish their attack - but I don't think they should be allowed to play keep ball for a few minutes. Id like a rule where if an attacking team has the ball inside the 45 when the hooter goes they can finish their attack. If they lose possession or send the ball back outside the 45 it's game over.
The rule as it is now is going to cause trouble - unless there is a time keeper who is given a few seconds latitude for common sense.
As for the 50m move - some refs are applying this wrong. Often the 50m penalty is given against a player after overcarrying - who probably thinks he has been given a free in for a hand on the back or something like that. The 50m move should only be for obvious play acting.

Replying To BarneyGrant: "Probably should have gotten at least a draw in Ennis. Badly defended goals killed them in the end.
A good performance but they count for nothing in a league if you don't get the points.
Need to win every other match now which is doable. Can't see Clare dropping a point. Dublin v Wexford headcto head for second place." We would have a very good league record against Clare. We won in Ennis last year.
I'm genuinely more worried about Kildare than Dublin and Clare. We will bring a performance for those fixtures but we're so prone to getting caught out when we're expected to win.

National Football League 2026 - 1 Like(s)
Replying To legendzxix: "Division One:
Armagh v Galway
Mayo v Dublin
Donegal v Kerry
Roscommon v Monaghan
D1. Three top 7 clashes. Tough away day to Donegal. All four games could go either way.
Division Two:
Kildare v Offaly
Derry v Tyrone
Louth v Cork
Cavan v Meath
D2. Three top 14 clashes. Can Kildare follow up their draw away to Tyrone and break into the top 14? Offaly need to bounce back with a win, as do all who lost on the opening day. All four D2 games can also go either way." The League is definitely the best competition in Football.

Replying To TopDrawer: "Any Wicklow players in the Sigerson?" There are some. Not sure of them all but at least 2 were on the TUD team beaten by Queens Wednesday night - Prendergast from Greystones and Fee from Roundwood.

Replying To TopDrawer: "Any Wicklow players in the Sigerson?" Conor Fee and Joe Prendergast started for TUD the other night, Jack Hardy on the bench for Maynooth. That was it as far as I could see

Great to see Carrabine back in the squad. Hopefully he's fit in next couple of games. Harte back also and will surely start on Sunday. Need a big performance on Sunday to get the league up and running. Keaney didn't make the squad that's a pity as looks a very good player. Apart from that very strong squad.
