have to blame someone jinxie..its not good to see a possible justification for it already being suggested..laughable and shows how desperate some fans are in terms of how far their bias goes fabio8 (USA) - Posts: 2182 - 20/07/2014 21:36:18 1622423 Link 0 |
Looked at the incident again and there is no angle from the TV to show what happened, what is clear is that MOD was clearly carrying on with EOG when there was no need, he had pulled him off Reilly (who you could say started the whole thing) and then had another go at him. From what I could see of the camera angle he then put his arm around EOG's neck and was pulling him as he was on the ground, it was after this MOD complained of been bitten. As I said you cannot see if there was a bit or not but what is clear is that by this stage MOD is the clear aggressor. From what I saw on the TV I would have no sympathy with MOD, he got a yellow (which should have been a red -not the argument here) so he should have just kept his mouth shut and moved on. zinny (Wexford) - Posts: 1806 - 21/07/2014 08:45:54 1622484 Link 0 |
After seeing it on Sunday game - ridiculous. As usual Dublin win strolling blindfolded and everything from the size of the county, to home advantage, to partisan crowd, biased media, gouging, biting, unfair ref's gets trotted out, all this to just paper over that Meath are actually not very good. arock (Dublin) - Posts: 4898 - 21/07/2014 08:49:26 1622485 Link 0 |

Yawn....how it this even news? I would think the Meath player may be embarrassed by all this today. He stuck his finger in his mouth. I would do the same thing. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11237 - 21/07/2014 10:39:55 1622584 Link 0 |

thats the thing there must have been 7 or 8 punches thrown in the incident and nobody seems to have a problem with hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 21/07/2014 10:51:28 1622609 Link 0 |
I couldn't believe the attitude of The Sunday Game panel. If the finger is there, bite it. Mickey Burke tries to separate EOG and Kevin Reilly while they are on the ground. Thats when EOG bites him and that's why he is subsequently thrown around by Meath players. I think EOG broke the skin with his bite and Mickey Burke was in a cast after the game.

Micky Burke wasn't dealt with at the time by the referee I think. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13718 - 21/07/2014 11:28:45 1622660 Link 0 |
Meath got hammered by the better Team and thats all that counts here. Meath football players and management have bigger things to worry about than a swollen finger. chriscart580 (Meath) - Posts: 376 - 21/07/2014 11:32:12 1622667 Link 0 |

I honestly can't believe Meath have went crying about this it's not there style I'd say the players are very annoyed with MOD for bringing this up with the media. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 21/07/2014 11:39:08 1622683 Link 0 |

I have to admit I haven't been O'Garas biggest fan over the years due to the way he went about playing the game. The guy frustrated me as he obviously had talent and I never seen why he needed to try and be the hard man of the team with his sleekit actions and not only did it affect his game but also the team suffered when he got the line. Then last season and this he seemed to have changed his ways, grew the hair and seemed to be concentrating more on the football side of the game which I thought made him a better player and I was actually impressed with him and he had gone up in my estimation (for what thats worth :-) ).

The title of this thread really needs to be changed. It is giving a very biased viewpoint and is extremely unfair on Eoghan O'Gara. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13718 - 21/07/2014 11:47:47 1622695 Link 0 |
