If they can allow Galway Footballers train on the pitch they can allow the County Senior Hurlers to play championship on the pitch. This is as bad a call out of this bunch as I've seen and that takes some doing!!!!

I’ll fix this for you. “The split season hasn’t done much for the GAA national media and needs to be revisited. The long term damage it will do to our bank balance might never be repaired. The line “it’s all about the club” is true but I’m going to say it’s horseshit”.

Thats false. It’s about 9K per acre here and there are 20 million acres. The land alone would cost him 180 billion. That’s not taking into account all the property on that land so you could probably times that total by 20+ so he’d need 3-4 trillion. He doesn’t earn that much.

James McCarthy is arguably the greatest Dublin player of this last ridiculous 12-13 year period and in my opinion easily top 5 of my all time. Before people lose it that would be early 90’s to now.

Mayo completely overwhelming Kerry in the middle third and as a consequence creating a lot of 1v1s further up the pitch which is showing up Kerry’s man to man defending. Full forward line flying. Brilliant stuff. Great half of football.

If

had a shred of sense they would distribute all tickets for every championship game through clubs. Putting a dent in the decrease in volunteerism and at the very least increasing club membership revenue which is badly needed. Too easy for people not to get involved

I think you’ll find John that Armagh lost 3 championship games on penalties because they didn’t score as many penalties as their opponents. It’s perfectly fair. Might not be the nicest way to do it but it is fair.
Three times in the last year Armagh have lost football championship games on penalties because of an overly condensed calendar for the inter-county championship. One would have to question the fairness of that. To me it just doesn’t feel right.

Met Austin for the first time nearly 23 years ago when he was involved with the minors and crossed his path many times over the years usually at the Ballagh games he covered. Always had a broad smile and the hand out to greet you for a chat after the match. A total gentleman. RIP
Mayo GAA wish to express our sympathy to the family of Austin Garvin (RIP) Claremorris.
Austin most notably managed the Mayo Minors throughout the 1970's to Connacht and All Ireland success.

Regardless of a person’s opinion around the severity of Covid-19 and there are plenty of differing views on that I think one thing that would be universally agreed upon is that there isn’t a person on this island who wants to go backwards in terms of phases.

Laughable suspension. This shouldn’t even be a discussion. Lifetime ban.

Absolutely Barry. Should have total ownership of their own prep outside of their group responsibilities in relation to training as long as it doesn’t affect performance. The drink bans have always been optics driven in my opinion. 2/3 pints on a Tuesday absolutely no issue.
