well i suppose this will open up a can of worms with my galway friends but its not meant to. Adrian Touhy was highlighted on the sunday game for the helmet related incident with bonnar yesterday. im really not sure if many people saw it at the time? there was no mention of it by the commentators...but i did see it and i rewound it again and again and i posted it on other social media. juniorjudge (Waterford) - Posts: 383 - 07/08/2017 10:17:38 2030110 Link 0 |
How can someone intentionally rip off a helmet during frantic play when they are looking in the opposite direction and haven't a clue who or what is behind them. It was ridiculous by the Sunday game to even highlight it. 890202 (Wexford) - Posts: 1278 - 07/08/2017 11:27:30 2030139 Link 3 |
Agree. I think there is enough evidence that there was no intent. How many of us have tried to parry a man behind off us and not really known what the story was? If he had even looked around you could say there was intent.

What isnhappeis happening Tadhg de Burca is wrong. It should not be happening. It's a pity RTE did not have a camera in that side of the field. Despite what is happening Tadhg de Burca Adrian Tuohy should be left alone. Two wrongs do not make a right.

The rule is a joke. I think the only reason The Sunday Game highlighted it was because they received messages from Waterford fans about it. So the Sunday Game doesn't know what to show. Killarney.87 (Tipperary) - Posts: 2513 - 07/08/2017 13:47:59 2030221 Link 3 |
The DeBurca one if different. He was looking at Kehoe, put his hand up and obviously pulled Kehoes face guard and it was seen by the linesman and judged to have been deliberate. Perhaps it was provoked by Kehoe blocking his run but provocation is irrelevant really 890202 (Wexford) - Posts: 1278 - 07/08/2017 13:52:24 2030223 Link 2 |
good synopsis as usual. i think adrian will get banned though, rightly or wrongly.

All the Waterford/Cork pundits I presume. None of the SG lads last night were baying for blood.
