This is it. Should everyone now try to have 16 men defending in the dying minutes of a game when they are narrowly winning? If officials notice it good and well but at least try to have the extra man in there.

The GAA have no problem reviewing other incidents and taking action against a player ? Not surprised though. They couldn't make or apply rules for a game of hide and go seek. The Aidan McCarthy fiasko that was never applied the same again and a whole slue of rules started, drooped, never enforced or laced with loop holes that could be exploited by a six year old.

garlic football is a terrible game alright...gaelic football on the other hand is enjoyable and watched by millions... It's a terrible end to a great competition. Whatever happens, it's going to be unsatisfactory. rcarragh (Dublin) - Posts: 305 - 24/01/2023 15:58:23 2454010 Link 3 |

I know a steward in Parnell Park who was thinking it was a time wasting tactic which backfired completely. ExiledInWex (Dublin) - Posts: 1136 - 24/01/2023 16:07:38 2454014 Link 2 |
I dont understand how the GAA can revisit an incident highlighted by the sunday game (a bad tackle for example) yet they dont revisit something like this. Pure cop out. tiobraid (Tipperary) - Posts: 4119 - 24/01/2023 16:11:19 2454015 Link 1 |
He probably doesnt even know who was playing. Worst appointment of all time.

Another clown who thinks hurling is the only game on earth. Stick to your hurling so. I think we are blessed to have two great games that are of great sporting and social value to this country and to Irish people living abroad. Keep your antipathy to Gaelic football to yourself.

Ah sure that's Mayo, the media's wee darlings, journalists couldn't say a bad word about them having 16 men on the pitch and gaining an advantage from it by having that 45 retaken, you couldn't make it up, they had a fella throwing his Gps at a free taker kicking a free to win the 2017 All Ireland and not a word about it?? if that had been a player from any Ulster county I'd say they'd still be talking about it and not making him a Sunday game pundit and interviewing him on the Late Late, On this subject though teams in soccer or Gaelic often refer to their supporters as their '12th man' or in Gaelic sports their '16th man' Seems in this case Kilmacud had their '16th man on the pitch!!

Viking 66 - Is there no rule saying that Football is a 15 a side game? And what is the penalty if that rule is broken? Pikeman96 (Wexford) - Posts: 2251 - 24/01/2023 16:46:16 2454026 Link 2 |
Still waiting for clarification on this Pikeman. I wasnt asking about the rules pertaining to "An objection to the award of a game". But rather what is the exact rule pertaining to how many players should a football team have and what are the penalties for breaking that rule?

If Brolly had any balls he would be onto his fellow Derry men guiding them through this mess. If it was a suspended player himself or Logan would be at the forefront.

The referee had his hand up stopping the 45 from been taken which the Mayo goalie didn't see. Therefore the referee had no choice but to have it retaken. Of course we all see where this whine is coming from and understand.

2 days is hardly dragging on. They have until tomorrow to make a decision anyway. Croke Park officials and Kilmacud makes the mistake . It shouldn't have all the ones on Glenn appealing. Gas should have just made right call and replay FoolsGold (Cavan) - Posts: 2763 - 24/01/2023 17:21:53 2454038 Link 1 |
That's revisionism regarding the 45, the ref had just directed the Dublin defenders to move back and then waved play on, it was after consulting with the linesman who had his flag raised that the ref called for a second chance for Hennelly.

Thanks Pikeman! I posted the other post only a few minutes ago!!! So basically any team could sneak 16 or 17 or however many players onto the pitch without sanction once the officials don't report it and the opponents don't appeal?

If the integrity of all GAA competitive games is to be preserved then a replay is necessary. This is not the first time Croke Park have reneged on their duty to show leadership and uphold the rules of the Association. It's a disgrace that Watty Grahams are being put in this position.

They will revisit it. If Glen appeal there will be a replay. The difference between them revisiting someone getting a sly dig and this, is that the first concerns a disciplinary issue missed by officials. There is no procedure for the lad who ships the sly dig making any sort of appeal to GAA, Some of course have gone to the civil courts but that's another issue. Sunday concerns a breach of a rule that specifically refers to the team at the sharp end having the right to appeal, It's not rocket science, I assume they will, and that there will be a replay. There may well be a case for changing the rule at Congress to allow for action to be taken regardless of whether there is an objection.
