The title of this topic is Non-Gaa Forum. Any chance you could take your GAA arguments somewhere else? Cockney_Cat (UK) - Posts: 2753 - 30/04/2025 20:07:44 2605844 Link 0 |

That's a very valid point. I think these guys just enjoy baiting each other.

I don't. It's the man from Cavan repeating the same points on multiple threads. Constant. I won't argue back anymore.

Yeah i have. It's hardly managing Dublin to 6 in a row. I was making a point that this lad who has no interest in the GAA is telling us what's what and we are eejits for doing what we do.

They mustn't have got the memo that it's changed to the American politics thread

Leinster surpass Mayo and the Irish rugby team as the biggest bottlers in Irish sport. peiledoir20 (Donegal) - Posts: 1188 - 03/05/2025 21:04:13 2606513 Link 3 |

Unfair to Mayo. GAA won't have to worry about moving our matches to accommodate them now. BarneyGrant (Dublin) - Posts: 3508 - 03/05/2025 22:42:19 2606538 Link 1 |

Mayo were underdogs in all of their recent finals except the Tyrone match, so I wouldn't call them bottlers at all. They kept coming back to reach finals, when they weren't expected to do so. The fact is they were able to consistently challenge Dublin at that time, when no other team could. That's very different to Leinster rugby, who have been favourites in pretty much every final and semi-final that they've lost over the past 6 or 7 years. Leinster are very well resourced, benefit from a large pool coming through the schools system, have a large number of centrally contracted players and can bring in world class forieng talent. They were also playing at home today against a team who are closer to the bottom than the top of the English premiership, who were also missing some key players. Yet they still couldn't get the job done and made some really poor decisions at the end of the game. They have underachieved significantly for many years now given everything at their disposal.

Sickening in that Leinster were heavy favorites, the home team, and had a 1 or 2 man advantage. Unreal.

You picked the wrong username for this one of your multiple accounts Flaker. Walter Mitty would fit you much better.

Careful now, you'll upset certain types here with comments like that :)

Good post. If they were a GAA county, heads would roll. Something seriously wrong, whether that be with players, management or both. Silver lining is that we won't have to listen to them for a while and can concentrate on who will win Sam and McCarthy. Good, committed athletes who will leave their all on the pitch and won't be wandering around the pitch after a game scratching their heads as to what went wrong.

This is the new Rory mcilroy debate he was also stuck on 4 majors as Leinster are on 4 EC This is as major malfunction as I've seen pre and during a game. At least last few years lost to the best teams in LAR and Toulouse. This was a Northampton side minus two of their best players. To leave out Barrett what was he signed for?? The complete absence of leadership and decision making when 3 down and had penalty nearly right in front with 5 minutes left. The elevation of Sam P is odd a fine passer and kicker when given time but their is a complete lack of defensive game the video of his ankle tap attempt was embarrassing and was obvious wouldn't lay a hand on pollock His running game isn't up to scratch yet either Farrell does seem to have a few favourites OConnell keeps failing upwards, sexton getting a role with no experience over likes of Sam vesty and Sam P will still prob go on lions tour as will look good behind likely dominant packs. jm25 (Galway) - Posts: 1509 - 04/05/2025 13:07:14 2606594 Link 0 |

Come on Belclare, change the record man, you need to get out a bit more. Read your fellow Galwaymans comment, wanpointwin. He obviously knows a bit more about sport. Thumbs up Cumann1 (Mayo) - Posts: 48 - 04/05/2025 13:59:56 2606601 Link 0 |

Sam P didn't even go for an ankle tap which was embarrassing, he made it look as if he was going to tackle at the hips and got outpaced. His place kicking alone costs a game. I cannot see him on the lions, he is not good enough, the two Smiths and Russel will be the choices. Leinsters problems are Irelands problems and Cullen needs to go. You don't start with your best team? One other thing is they need a 15, Keenan is not good enough but both Leinster and Ireland stick with him. Too many favourites that are not performing.

I'm not from Galway, but I wish I was tonight. Oh to be out celebrating 4 in a row in Castlebar, without their two best players as well. Bravo Gallimh.

I was at the game and I watched it again today and I didn't see any ankle tap possibilities with great clarity. You are correct he won't make the cut, his opposite number Fin Smith will, for sure, it was always going to be that way, don't forget Sam is only a few months playing Rugby at the highest level and barely 22. You choose to Blame him saying, "His place kicking alone costs a game" - - - are you for real ?. You say, - - - One other thing is they need a 15, Keenan is not good enough but both Leinster and Ireland stick with him. I don't understand, I have never read a post from you here on HS giving a pre match opinion on a Leinster or Ireland Rugby game or player so how can you expect anyone with a grain of honesty to believe your post match comments. PS. Eleven months ago the same two teams met in the same semi final, Leinster had to fight all the way for a 3 point win, as a result they were all house hold names and heroes. Sadly, yesterday they fell short by the same margin of 3 points to the same opposition, suddenly they are now all losers and Leinster is now past tense. I sincerely that is not your definition of sport, I'm glad it's not mine. supersub15 (Carlow) - Posts: 3178 - 04/05/2025 21:53:00 2606700 Link 3 |
