So John Small drags Murphy to the ground (again) and both men get sent off? Same Craic as Clifford a few weeks ago. A joke. Donegal_abroad (Donegal) - Posts: 1319 - 22/02/2020 20:42:44 2269073 Link

Replying To Donegal_abroad: "So John Small drags Murphy to the ground (again) and both men get sent off? Same Craic as Clifford a few weeks ago. A joke." Why are you surprised? He had earlier conned the ref by going down "injured" after taking Ryan McHugh out of the game. We've seen this before. midlands (Westmeath) - Posts: 541 - 22/02/2020 20:52:49 2269080 Link

Small should have been off already at that stage as a few minutes earlier he took out Ryan McHugh off the ball before comically going down in a heap clutching his head as if he had been taken out. That sort of stuff spoils what was a great game from both teams. conordee (Galway) - Posts: 440 - 22/02/2020 20:53:01 2269081 Link

Of course he did....Small had form with this type of thing. Watch him off the ball for a few mins in any game. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11227 - 22/02/2020 20:56:29 2269084 Link

The less said about a certain Dublin footballer the better, but he is the most cynical player in the country. It was a disgrace the way Murphy got treated this evening and people wonder why our better players are opting for Australia. Referees, linesmen and umpires need to get their act together quickly and hammer cynical players. Shane Walsh will need Jujutsu lessons before the Dubs come to Salthill, he will be targeted in a dimilar fashion to Clifford. GDL (Galway) - Posts: 719 - 22/02/2020 21:11:35 2269092 Link
This is going to be hilarious..... Whisper......it's not the big bad boys from Tyrone who "get players sent off." Even though Petey Harte was sent of just the same as golden child David The_Fridge (Tyrone) - Posts: 2088 - 22/02/2020 21:13:56 2269095 Link
Replying To yew_tree: "Of course he did....Small had form with this type of thing. Watch him off the ball for a few mins in any game." So does Mayo players, Keegan been worst for it. Got Sean C sent off a few years ago. People in glass houses lad. The_Fridge (Tyrone) - Posts: 2088 - 22/02/2020 21:20:52 2269098 Link

Replying To The_Fridge: "So does Mayo players, Keegan been worst for it. Got Sean C sent off a few years ago. People in glass houses lad." Did Keegan make Cavanagh tackle Aidan O'Shea around the neck? MayoDan (Mayo) - Posts: 414 - 22/02/2020 21:27:09 2269105 Link

Small did what Small had to do. I would have him in my team everyday. Didnt lose us that game. Every team needs a few John Smalls. DLlegends (Donegal) - Posts: 503 - 22/02/2020 21:28:01 2269107 Link
Every team has a bollx or two in amongst them, it's bloody frustrating being on the end of it but we left that behind us there. Need to sort out our chance conversion because we're doing more than enough to win these games but leaving big scores behind JoeSoap (Donegal)* - Posts: 1432 - 22/02/2020 21:29:16 2269108 Link

Replying To yew_tree: "Of course he did....Small had form with this type of thing. Watch him off the ball for a few mins in any game." Yes the way he went down against Mayo having been clothes lined was a disgrace. Joxer (Dublin) - Posts: 4700 - 22/02/2020 21:41:27 2269111 Link
Replying To Donegal_abroad: "So John Small drags Murphy to the ground (again) and both men get sent off? Same Craic as Clifford a few weeks ago. A joke." It is a joke but it has been that way for years. If two players tangle then regardless of who the instigator is both get yellow. It's a nonsense and always has been. It's the default setting for every referee. Joxer (Dublin) - Posts: 4700 - 22/02/2020 21:44:00 2269113 Link
Certainly agree it didn't lose us the game and fair dues to Dublin for showing yet again why they're the best in Ireland, simply relentless. Another very narrow defeat for us. Still happy personally that we are doing a lot of things well but lots of things we can be better at too. Giving cheap ball away and forwards not physical enough on opposition kickouts need improving. Donegal_abroad (Donegal) - Posts: 1319 - 22/02/2020 21:55:13 2269116 Link
Replying To DLlegends: "Small did what Small had to do. I would have him in my team everyday. Didnt lose us that game. Every team needs a few John Smalls." Every team has a hard man or two. What is annoying is a so-called "hard man" who has a habit of feigning injury trying to get opponents sent off. Give me a Jonny Cooper or a Philly McMahon any day - Small isn't fit to lace their boots. midlands (Westmeath) - Posts: 541 - 22/02/2020 21:55:29 2269117 Link
Small does what he does, Murphy roasted him generally though but then that's what Murphy does. A joy to watch. Donegal missed 3 excellent goal chances tonight and Dublin jammed a goal. That was the difference in the end. Hard luck on Donegal but they could've been out of sight. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13705 - 22/02/2020 21:56:50 2269118 Link
