Disgraceful Scenes At Half Time - 8 Like(s)
The Lee Keegan incident canno't be compared to what a Kerry player did to Nicholas Murphy of Cork in the first seconds of an All-Ireland final. The same player even bragged about it in his book. To say that the Keegan incident was one of the worst incidents in recent years is a wind-up.

Having 3 qualify from a group of 4 is a joke, a bit like children's sports day where everyone gets a medal.

Replying To royaldunne: "Well if sf got into power they'd run out of here very quickly. Thankfully that's not gonna happen anytime soon. It seems that also is the main concern of reunification, a sf gov, probably propped up by dup.
Majority in south would much prefer to have sdlp and moderate unionists in ascendency in north when unity happens. The fear of both extremists is real." Why bring SF into the conversation.Do you assume that because I am from the six counties and support Irish unity that I vote SF?

Replying To Tirchonaill1: "Cillian O'Connor isn't in the same class as McCaffrey or Mannion, he's a tap over merchant, Mayo are better off without him same as big Aidan O'Shea, them young boys Mayo have are far better players." Cillian O Conmor is one of the top forwards in the game and has been for a good few years, the stats don't tell lies.

Replying To AfricanGael: "Hang on a minute Wexico15, yesterday you told everyone 45% of the population were vaccinated and now you are saying it's 45% of the ADULT population ?
I'm glad to see the you have realized you were wrong but accept you made a genuine mistake.
Apart from myself, there were only two other people who posted factual information re. vaccinations Greengrass or CiarraiMick.
Even thought Wexico15 did make a genuine mistake and I would hope he is able to acknowledge that, it's clear he wasn't the only one fooled by it.
You see I know the figure of 20% which I posted is absolutely correct and I can prove it, and I also know why the figure of 45% is being banded about in the media.
It's time most of you started reading beyond the headlines and started waking up to what's going on around you, instead of vilifying someone who is explaining what's really happening to you.
Seeing that you all seem to believe everything you read on a headline, the following quote is from the RTE website recently:
Currently, 4 in 10 people in the Republic of Ireland have received one dose of a vaccine, while 2 in 10 are fully vaccinated.
Now as far as I know 2 out of 10 is still 20%, unless in Ireland it can mean whatever you want it to be.
Case rested (for now)" You sound like the little boy who ran home with the ball when he was losing the match.

Admirable." Why are you finding this so difficult to understand, 45% of the eligible population are fully vaccinated. No vaccine has yet been approved for under 18s.

Replying To galwayford: "Oliver Cromwell is a hero to the English. The same way as Michael Collins is here. I would respect that." Don't think Michael Collins took part in wide scale slaughter of men women and children. Most of the atrocities committed by Cromwell was after the Irish forces were defeated. If that makes him a hero to the English that says a lot. Even Germany forbids any reference to Adolf Hitler, another mass murdeter.

Replying To BarneyGrant: "How would the proposed changes have made it different?
I thought it was entertaining game. Fault on both sides was poor kicking. Don't see how that be improved by bonus for points outside 40!
Worst case scenario for changes be those AFL games where better teams win by 40 points. Anyway, we will get some idea with Railway Cup trials. Hopefully, they are predictable dog's dinner and that be end of it. Unfortunately, I suspect they are committed to the new game their committee has invented." Are you serious when you say last night's game was entertaining? By the way I would much prefer if no rule changes were necessary but Gaelic football is becoming unwatchable. Jim Gavin, Eamon Fitzmaurice and the rest of the review committee are genuine gaa people and have the good of the association at heart. I have a feeling both men will be delighted that the game was shown live last night as changes are now almost guaranteed.
You could argue that Jim Mc Guinnness invented a new game back in 2011-12 and we are paying the price for it ever since,

Replying To DUALSUPPORT: "Thanks very much for taking the time to reply to my questions SaffronDon. I watched the documentaries and read books about the troubles but I feel the best way to find out is to ask people who lived through it, I also did the taxi tours in Belfast and Derry. From the outside I do think it's important for more Catholics to be involved with the PSNI for fairness between the communities.
Those were terrible incidents you told about it, something nobody should have to go through. I hope your cousin made a full recovery. I always felt myself when I was younger those loyalist up north were just bitter bigots, until I was at mass 1 Sunday a few years back and our Priest was giving a sermon on forgiveness and he spoke about Gordon Wilson and his campaign for peace in Northern Ireland after his daughter was killed in Enniskillen. I looked him up and read about him and I was in awe of The Wilson's story and what incredible people they were and are.
Anyway while I would love to see an United Ireland and the 6 counties will always be Ireland to me but the most important thing is a peaceful and good quality of life for the citizens in the North." As someone from the 6 counties your comments are welcome and appreciated. You would be amazed how many people in the republic look on people from the 6 counties as being from a different country.

Replying To Byanthon: "From reading different reports ideas etc on Northern Ireland I do think people are badly out of touch.
There is no chance of unionist/loyalists ever wanting to join an United Ireland. That is their choice and no amount of discussions /border poles will change that.
The GAA in the north have done an unbelievable job in surviving during the troubles and you would be surprised how much the GAA would be looked down and mistrusted by unionist/loyalists." On the contrary I believe people on this forum have a very good understanding of the situation. The days of "Ulster says no" are no more, this will be a slow process but the re-unification of our country is inevitable.

Replying To supersub15: "CTGAA10 (Limerick) You say you watch rugby, full stop, You are correct when you say you are not an expert, in fact I would guess you know nothing about the game, an anonymous key board warrior. As for togoutlads (Galway) I wont go into his bla bla bla utterance I wouldn't waste ink on his type of elevated rubbish. you know as much about the game as a gold fish knows about roller skates.
We are very proud of this squad who put themselves out ther not only to entertain but to give people who know nothing about the game a opportunity to reticule them.
The same critics were saying we were depending on 3 or more non Irish born men to strengthen the team.
For the benefit of the uneducated Population of Ireland 4,88 million
Population of France 67.3 million.
The game was not as one sided as the score suggest, and Sam wont loose any sleep over nonsensical comments" "For the benefit of the uneducated" the population of Ireland is 6.9million, I see the partitionist mindset is alive and well down Carlow way.

If you were to look at this forum as a vox pop, then god help Ireland.
There's evil on the way, and you're wasting your time looking for an inquiry into how modelling is produced when the reality is most of you would be as well looking into a pot of spuds boiling." There has been 5,000 covid related deaths over 16 months, 3,100 of those in care home settings.
Now with 67% of the population getting at least 1 vaccine dose, 45% fully vaccinated NPHET are projecting a worst case scenario of 2,170 deaths in a 3 month period, variants or not I think its pretty reasonable to think that's crazy.
Now without resorting to childish insults can you try explain this madness. People aren't demanding 80k in croke park or a packed copper face Jack's any reasonable thinking person understands it baby steps when reopening but the lack of ambition from government and NPHET is quite galling at this stage."]There is not 45 % fully vaccinated , this is the sort of bull that's peddled around here .
Lies ."]Paul Reid just announced on the RTE news that 45% are fully vaccinated. Obviously understanding data and statistics is not your strong point.

Replying To oneoff: "Funny to see Ulster posters crying over this. Had it been the other way around they would be very quick to accuse others of being sore losers." I think the response has been very measured to be fair and most of the criticism has come from non Ulster posters. In light of the sad and tragic events most people I know we're happy to see Crossmolina get the victory even though the ending was controversial.
I though the Ballinderry manager was very gracious and respectful in his comments Please do not try to create division where none exists,, there is more to life than football.
