Agree with your post and as you say Brolly did elude to it at halftime and he got short thrift - however that's not like Joe Brolly - if it were Tyrone or Donegal doing the same as Kerry did he would be shouting down Lyster and ORourke - so it was the tick in the box from Joe to show he is even handed with his fellow Ulster Gaels but little more than that - the hypocracy and double standards is a joke but you won't change it with those bunch on SG.

Thought Coldrick was decent enough today to be fair. Of all the championship games I've been at this year, Coldrick today adn Deegan yesterday were both good, all others very poor (including Deegan on the line for Cavan v Armagh)

Considering I play football and have been on the end of those calls I know all too well how it feels. The ref was good today as well as Gough the week before.....let the game flow as how as possible and kept the cards in the pockets. They can't get every decision right.....the same as players, they make mistakes. As I said if you think you can do better become a ref. Also refs get accessed by Pat McEnaney, probably the best ref there was. I'm sure he criticises the mistakes they make and I'm sure they try to improve. So you are wrong in what you are saying The_Fridge (Tyrone) - Posts: 2088 - 03/07/2016 21:51:10 1875685 Link 0 |
I have been shouting about kerry cynical play for this past 6 years. It's like the secrets of Fatima. It's not spoken on our national media or allowed to be talked about. It appears to be the same in the referees organisation. They're not advised to check them for it. It will be a miracle if it's discussed tonight on the Sunday Game.

Hats off to David Golderick today. He had a great game and let the game flow. He was very fair and balanced. border Gael (Monaghan) - Posts: 894 - 03/07/2016 22:01:42 1875696 Link 0 |
I thought that Tipp players got very little protection from the ref today. Tipp can, and perhaps need to, learnt a lot about cynical play from today's game.

I didn't say the ref was bad today just that it was clear he got a few calls wrong. How can I be wrong when you can clearly see the fouls on TV??? Your argument makes no sense. Thought the ref in the first tyrone v cavan game was fantastic. Can't remember his name now. I take it you would have no issue in going out in a championship game in future based on a poor ref decision? Standard of football has greatly increased and the margin between winning and losing is very small that's all in saying. kevin03 (Tyrone) - Posts: 276 - 03/07/2016 22:18:54 1875714 Link 0 |
I referred to the ref of the pervious game....David Gough. Please refer to my first point....I play football, I have lost championship games to refs decisions, and won them the same way as well. The_Fridge (Tyrone) - Posts: 2088 - 03/07/2016 23:26:06 1875744 Link 0 |
Correct my friend. Not even mentioned on The Sunday Game tonight. Brolly highlighted Kerry's cynicism today but was brushed away by Lyster and O'Rourke. Des, Tomas and Ciaran followed suit and didn't annoy 'de Kinggggdommmm'. Didn't you know that Tieran McCann's hair and Tyrone are more of a threat to 26 county National Security?

Until today, I would have considered Cavan to be one of the most defensive sides in Ulster, if not Ireland. But today they were an absolute mess defensively, and Tyrone punished them in a ruthless manner. Now in fairness to Cavan, I think they only became a mess defensively once Tyrone got a goal and opened up some daylight and forced Cavan to attack more, which was going to leave more gaps.
