We are absolutely blessed to be still in it. Are they looking at Boyle's GPS data saying he's tiring to decide when to take him off? Was playing very well, made no sense to me to bring Donie on for him. GreenandRed (Mayo) - Posts: 7337 - 30/07/2017 18:02:08 2026049 Link 0 |

Black card has to go The refs have no idea when to use it Roscommon should have 2 in the first half and 1 in the second AOS had a bad game compounded by the refs refusal to give him frees when he's been mugged But wouldn't expect anything else from McQuillan Any idea on the replay date and venue cluichethar (Mayo) - Posts: 454 - 30/07/2017 18:10:15 2026054 Link 1 |
They have good reason to boo the ref He done everything but score for Roscommon 2 Rosie's should have got black cards in the 1st AOS was mugged all game and nothing But we never expect a neutral ref pidge (Cork) - Posts: 543 - 30/07/2017 18:16:42 2026058 Link 2 |
What decision did he make aginst Cork The only bad call he made was the black card to Keegan The Cork player pulled him back the ref seen it and chose to do nothing Out from that he was pretty fair

Some miles in the Mayo legs this year is that their third or fourth draw this year, week in week out and again probably next week. TheUsername (Dublin) - Posts: 4445 - 30/07/2017 18:42:02 2026079 Link 0 |

An exciting and engrossing game alright but the standard of football was poor and not a good ad. for Connacht football.

my point here is we are all biased towards our teams and you with your green and red glasses and me with my red and white glasses will see each and every decision made for or against our team in our own biased views,,,for eg i believe keegans black card the last day was clear as day and justified,,,you clearly don't however..complete opposite beliefs whys that?? im a cork man you are a mayo man..simple as that the point tho is a ref who is acting on his own good conscience on every decision has a hard enough job as it is without supporters and players who are obviously biased to their own teams fortunes abusing him for every decision made,,to accuse a ref of not being neutral as you were alluding to in your post is just out of order and disrespectful and advocating booing these decisions are just poor form too..todays result and all other results are purely the correct result as in all my time watching GAA games ive yet to see a ref pop the ball over the bar for any team and scores win games...not referees pidge (Cork) - Posts: 543 - 30/07/2017 19:08:05 2026103 Link 1 |
Aidan O'Shea was poor. Cillian O'Connor yet again, lucky to see the game out. Clearly elbowed the Rossie lad in the head. No need for that kinda wreckless hit. JayP (Dublin) - Posts: 1772 - 30/07/2017 19:11:19 2026109 Link 0 |
Same here. I thought they'd blown it after about 15mins but they dug in. What can you say about Mayo. They're some team to follow I'd say! They're still standing and I'd expect them to get the job done next week. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13705 - 30/07/2017 19:15:41 2026114 Link 0 |
Very entertaining and exciting game. I hear the armchair boys in the studio were very critical of the standard, Since there was no malice or big incident in the game they were lost for something to criticise. Looking at the game through 'primrose and blue spectacles', I was over the moon with the start and started to dream. I expected a Mayo comeback of course as they don't panic, but we helped them big-time with some wayward shooting in the second quarter. I was amazed that we allowed such a fine player as Keegan the freedom of the park in the first half. Fair play to McStay he did sort out the problem at half-time and Keegan was much less influential in the second half, but he had done the damage to us in the first half. neverright (Roscommon) - Posts: 1648 - 30/07/2017 19:22:47 2026121 Link 1 |
They booed him when COC got a yellow. Everything the ref done against Mayo got booed.

Doesnt do ye much harm coming through leinster with a 10 points minimium handicap when ye reach the quarter finals each year. Mayo are still the same group of players to come within a kick of the ball to beat ye last year so less of the waffle.

Agree with you Mr neverright. What it lacked in quality it made up for in passion and commitment. Unreal start for the Rossies but credit Mayo for getting back into it and eventually taking the lead. But the Rossies showed great spirit to get it level - what a free by Donie Smith! And both Rossie goals were excellent. We will again be underdogs in the replay but I think we can play a lot better. Our forwards are better than what we showed today. We will have learned more from this than Mayo. Expect another close one!

2 clear black card offenses by Roscommon in the first half One f which was on a Mayo player going clean through on goal and he refused to give any card at all I'm not the one making bad decisions on the field Fair enough if you say let the game flow But let it flow both ways If a ref gives a particular free one way then give it the other way as well What does AOS have to get a free Again today he was pulled and dragged all over the place Kieran Donaghy for Kerry gets them frees all the time So what's the difference And I'll praise a ref if he deserves it but I'll also have a go at him if I think he was bad as McQuillan was today
