Replying To ballydalane: "I think there is absolutely no way Liam Sheedy sends his teams out with a deliberate tactic to get players sent off. He just doesn't come across as that type of manager, I just can't picture a scenario where he's instructing players to try get lads sent off. Other managers, it wouldn't be that big a leap to imagine it, but not him. That's not to say Tipp players (and players on most if not all teams) don't partake in playacting of their own accord, but I seriously doubt it's coming from the top." A deliberate tactic is too strong but they are told to make the most of any illegal stroke or clash. No way would Paudi Maher do what he did against Laois and Barrett make such a meal of the contact last Sunday. He went down in a very unnatural way. Liam Sheedy wants to win as much as the next man. I'm sure he's a fine man but exaggerating contact brings results. Why wouldn't simulation creep into hurling?Tipp were sluggish against Laois and it made for an easy 2nd half once Laois lost the man. Tommy Walsh (2009) and RIchie Hogan (2019 v Cork) wanted to get up as quickly as possible after the hits they took, as if it was a sign of their toughness. Totally different mindset to Paidi Maher (especially) and Barrett. Now where does this come from? Seems to be management driven as under O'Shea and Ryan this culture wasn't there.

You are making a show of yourself. Even the KK lads are starting to leave this go. If you were sitting near the front row where Paudie got the belt on the shin you might have a different view or if you seen his leg the following Saturday you wouldn't be saying he went down to easy. therealtmo (Tipperary) - Posts: 1292 - 25/08/2019 10:25:15 2229110 Link

People from a few counties i've spoken to have said the same. They mightn't argue it on a forum like this. Would you give over with your examination of Paudie's shin! A lot of players legs after a game of hurling have lumps and bruising on their shins. Also on their hands, wrists, fingers. He's a fairly soft one for all the gym work if he'd go down for a little flick like that. BliainanÁir (Laois) - Posts: 598 - 25/08/2019 12:08:23 2229136 Link

This is ridiculous and embarrassing for you. Every team makes the most of any stroke/clash If you watched him go down you wouldnt say it was unnatural.

Replying To KillingFields: "This is ridiculous and embarrassing for you. Every team makes the most of any stroke/clash If you watched him go down you wouldnt say it was unnatural." They don't to the extent Tipperary did this year. Why is it embarassing? Since when has stating your opininion being embarassing? By the way my posts about Tipp going down soft are receiving more thumbs up than down which would indicate a silent majority agrees. Everyone goes down for every little tip according to the ironically named Killing Fields. BliainanÁir (Laois) - Posts: 598 - 25/08/2019 13:36:03 2229158 Link

Best to stop with your daft aul notions at that hour of the morning. Making out like you'd know that lads are lying down handy. Have a lye down yourself outta that like a good boy. catch22 (USA) - Posts: 2148 - 25/08/2019 14:03:55 2229167 Link

Plenty players for every county every year go down in similar challenges as those that tipp players did. to say it was a tactic is a nonsense. and if you have to resort to potshots about my name you're losing the discussion!

Cheers I was thinking you are a Corkonian based on your own username. I specifically chose Killarney 87 because that game was the start of the renaissance of Tipperary hurling and it reminds of how bad the 70s and 80s were for us. Delighted to get the win last night. The early goal rush was the difference. Cork will get 4 or 5 top class inter county hurlers off that team and that's the main thing.

A week on and nobody wants to discuss the match, amazing!! I finally got a chance to watch it back and I can see why Donnelly got so much plaudits from the media. He had a fine game, I think he scored 0-3 points from play and worked his ass off for the team. I thought Seamus Kennedy had a stormer of a game and better than I thought initially. I can see why so many people thought Ronan Maher was man of the match, he was immense. The wrists of Noel McGrath and Bubbles are insane, you could only dream about doing some of the things they do. 14 men aside, Kilkenny were very poor and one dimensional in the second half. Yes they fought to the bitter end. I think Cody applauding and stressing his players efforts is nearly a subconscious way of telling himself that he let them down tactically. If I was a Kilkenny fan i'd be beyond frustration with how predictable the ball sent in was. It either went straight to Barrett or was mopped up by Tipp backs in close vicinity to Fennelly. James Owens is without a doubt the best referee at the minute. In real time watching from the stand I thought he gave Kilkenny a load of soft frees but watching back it was very hard to argue against most of them. In an era of average referees we are very lucky to have him. Killarney.87 (Tipperary) - Posts: 2513 - 25/08/2019 18:32:47 2229212 Link
Replying To Killarney.87: "So basically what you are saying is you are an attention seeker who is looking for likes :)" Strawmen argument. What I'm saying is the notion that Tipp are going doing soft is well supported. It seems to be coached. BliainanÁir (Laois) - Posts: 598 - 25/08/2019 21:38:13 2229244 Link
