The only one who knows is Murphy himself, the RTE commentator hasn't a clue one way other the other. MuckrossHead (Donegal) - Posts: 5028 - 30/03/2015 18:45:58 1708586 Link 0 |

I thought it was soft enough. Technically it probably was a black card but there were lots of other little niggly cynical fouls throughout the game that could have warranted blacks as well. The consistency in the application of the rules is probably what angers players most. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9073 - 30/03/2015 18:47:12 1708589 Link 0 |
Was barely a black card, McQuillan was not good on Sunday. A number of Tyrone tackles were dead cert black cards if you wanted to be technical about it, but nothing other than a foul was given. Donegal_abroad (Donegal) - Posts: 1317 - 30/03/2015 19:31:09 1708607 Link 0 |

But if there is reasonable doubt muckross, then action can be taken. Plenty of people have been found guilty without them admitting the charge. Id see that as unsporting behaviour, and the gaa should bring in a rule of adding a further match ban for cases like that. TheMaster (Mayo) - Posts: 16187 - 31/03/2015 09:56:38 1708735 Link 0 |
Dangerous territory that though TheMaster. Certainly I'm sure that it does go on, but to start the "reasonable doubt" campaign you're calling into question the integrity of players. I think it would open up a can of unwanted worms and the CCCC would never be out of session! Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9073 - 31/03/2015 10:48:20 1708760 Link 0 |

According to Rory Gallagher Michael Murphy is now the victim despite his nuumerous black/red cards. What do ye think lads? HughHunt24 (Cork) - Posts: 841 - 19/05/2015 12:54:41 1725446 Link 0 |
I can't agree with Gallagher. MuckrossHead (Donegal) - Posts: 5028 - 19/05/2015 13:29:33 1725476 Link 0 |
