The Hurling Thread

[Happyhonkaman]

Suprised Tynans was upheld. I know intent was there but ultimately he didn't touch him.
Didn't think it would stand up to scrutiny.

Tynan never touched him! It was a 10 point dive FFS

Out on my own limb here
But if you watch the video, his head moved at the
Exact same time TYNAN hit
I doubt any hurler could fake that

I’ve watched it a few times, he sees him coming and makes the most of a slight brush IMO. Surely we are not heading down the soccer route with this stuff?

Will some GAA commentator come out with the ‘he was entitled to go down’ line? If it ever happens it’s finished.. let that shite for across the water.

No im not saying he is entitled to go down
I’m saying I don’t think a hurler could fake the head turn at the
Exact moment of contact

If we are talking about lads diving in that game, we must include Darragh McCarthy for the Mikey Carey red…

Cathal oneill wasn't allowed play that final and I think there was some controversy in the match itself, I can't remember but limerick were quite exercised about it afterwards. That result probably flattered KK and so it has panned out since.

Kk won by a point but there were was a point given in second half where umpire judged goalie (Conor Hanley Clarke ) had caught the ball over the cross bar. Replays showed it hadn’t.
For what it’s worth I think the cats were value for their win. Drennan was very good in the final. A few lads like Shane o brien didn’t fire on the day. We were better team on Paper (and cork probably the best team we had beaten ) but on the day didn’t play to form.
Worth remembering the 2014 minor team with all the current stars failed to win their all Ireland beaten in perhaps controversial circumstances with a Barry Nash point not given. Conor Whelan unplayable that day. Winning underage is importance but not everything. You can learn from a defeat.
There’s a big gap from u20s now to senior.

Limerick not bothered about a league final anyway

Does anyone know who the co-commentator (not the main fella) on TG4 is? I've noticed the last few matches he's permanently calling for frees every time there's a bit of contact. He's wrecking my head....

Sounds like Cathal Moore from Galway

KK are impressive here. What happened Limerick?
