This medical card thing is BS

Look, there is a MAXIMUM anyone has to spend on meds per month (€132)


even someone on the dole could afford €132 if their life depended on it

if they were stuck for cash they could hit up the Community Welfare Officer

Quit the BS Joe

dispense this information.

Doesn't the drug payment scheme only cover people who are paying PRSI? Or am I mistaken?

It is a part of the game, its a physical adrenaline fuelled game, different to Soccer. Watch Rugby and Ice Hockey and there id plenty of handbags in it as well. A 30 second fight does not mean a total breakdown in a sport.

Bill McLaren the great Rugby commentator had a great expression for it: "The argy bargy of the beefy citizens".

Seriously its blown out of all proportion.

I was watching a hockey game a few nights a go, and these two players start really going at it and while I was watching it I was thinking it was amazing how long it took the refs to get there to break it up. The rink is small, and they have skates but the two lads were knocking chunks off each other for over a minute before they were stopped.

I do agree with you to a point - but if you have a free for all like that eventually someone is going to get a serious injury. I was a U16 game before and saw some big fat f**ker of an aul lad thumping a 15 year old.
Taking the physicality out of the game is a different argument to taking the thuggery out of it.

Ban the players that started it and anyone who gave kicks to the head and leave the rest, but you cant ban a whole team in that case. Both teams are guilty of fighting and retaliation.

Either way I hope the GAA dont get involved with Liveline and use their own disciplinary procedures.

the problem with GAA matches is that as a team progress through a championship the bandwagon grows to include softies and innocents, people who dont know anything about norms within the sport, these newbies become hysterical upon witnessing a shoulder etc

they add to the frenzied atmosphere and are generally the first to cry and call the whineline

Good job he is not doing PR for the film.

The Oscars are a joke and have been for years.

The voters go for the same conservative films, and the same actors every year.
