Fitzgibbon Cup

Stopped reading after this. Connolly 1000% a red card, and Finn while not as bad deserved red for what it was after seeing a colleague get red for similar less than 5 mins previous.
I'm glad you took initiative and stopped reading my post after that line! It saved you the bother. ?

I've seen no videos yet but my view from the stand in Mallow was that Connolly ran in and caught the UL No. 4 awkwardly into the chest. I didn't think the malous and intention was there in the tackle to take the head off him. It was a rush of blood and Connolly should have been more careful in his approach to that tackle. In the context of it, a yellow would suffice. Mikey Finn and Brian O Sullivan incident warranted 2 yellows too, in my opinion.
 
Lads, those were two blatant red cards. We give out enough about other counties players tackling like that...we can't have it both ways. It's very dangerous.

It's not like the UL players ran into an elbow/shoulder...they were hit coming up/or down picking the ball.

Connolly and Finn are fine players and great lads I'm sure but they deserved to walk tonight I'm afraid. Hopefully they can learn from it.

Have a look back at it later, you'll change your mind. To be fair it might look different live at the game, but we had the benefit of seeing it back on replay.
 
Jack Leahy with 4 points from play looked a better player than Jack Cahalane tonight altough I understand hard game to judge with the red cards.

Also Ethan Twomey had a nightmare for UCC. Brian O Sullivan 3 points from midfield for UL. Shocked tbh both Leahy and O Sullivan aren't in Cork squad.

Brian O Sullivan walked away from the panel, that's his own problem, not Pat Ryans. If I was PR, I wouldn't be asking him back, I'd prefer players who stayed and fought for a place
