    I doubt if it would be legal, they can’t prevent whatever county from receiving XXXXXX euros from a company that wants to give it directly to them. If Dublin were to be forced to handover 30% revenue from AIG, then Galway should have to hand over 30% from Supermacs. You want a level playing field, that’s how it works.
    They set the rules they can structure it whatever way they like. National deal for all shirts or stadium rights.
    I mean they already have national TV rights instead of allowing teams to negotiate those individually.

    Why haven't the hurlers taken over if it's all about population and money?

    What way do super 8 fixtures work?

    Is it,

    Game 1, provincial winners at home v qualifier.
    Game 2, provincial winners away v qualifier.
    Game 3, provincial winners and qualifiers play each other in CP?

    Game 2 provincial winners vs each other in Croke park

    From the wallchart on gaa.ie, just switch game 2 and 3 around. So provincial winners will be away in final game on August bank holiday

    Sound. Didnt see that on the GAA website but didnt look too hard.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,559 ✭✭✭Mahony0509


    Thought the forward picked the ball straight off the ground there for the first Armagh goal.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,149 ✭✭✭threeball


    Down seemed to leave alot of scores behind them in the Mayo game plus coughed up a silly goal. A bit more craft and mayo were gone.

    Looked like it could have been a foul by Beggan in any case.

    Think he just got the toe under it before the hands went on it.

    O’Rourke will be sought after.

    Dublin did well today. But they’ll have to play two games outside of their home venue now just like everyone else. Oh, wait.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,559 ✭✭✭Mahony0509


    Still can't get over Meath's scoring today. So so poor.

    Just slightly better than Galway's second half performance last week.

    Nothing learnt over the weekend I think.
    Mayo got the result so happy enough there.
    Cork possibly better than expected or Kerry still leaky in defense.
    Leinster championship is a waste of energy.
    Ulster final gone to a Donegal team who seem to be dominating more than has been noticed.

    Armagh probably best performers of the weekend.

    But the football is a borefest and possibly will be for until semi final 2 or 3 games aside

    RTE summing today up - Meath afraid to win.

    Looked like that to me too.I know it's highlights we have seen tonight,but it was a very entertaining.

    Why did Derry not play in Celtic Park?

    Jaysus, what's that supposed to mean?

    Meath were poor in the final third but in all seriousness, if they put most of those chances away Dublin would have stepped it up a gear and still run riot

    Sunday Game panel said they looked as if they only had the intention of keeping up.

    It's all they were ever capable of doing, I was surprised they managed to keep it 'close' for so long.

    Christ Clifford absolutely destroyed Flahive last night. Some player.

    That bounce and flick over the head at the end line was sensational.

    Malachy a shoe in for the Meath job surely?

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.



  • Registered Users Posts: 18,758 ✭✭✭✭gormdubhgorm


    The way they are talking about Kerry reminds me of the way Dublin were in the 00's, no defenders who wanted to defend.
    All just wanted to bomb on.

    Not a hope they'll be challenging with that full back line. I'm Paul Kerrigan's biggest critic and even he managed to get over the top of them.

    Did you see Donegal?
    That keeper is a joy to Watch.

    No handy All Stars for Clarke now Yop!!!

    How do you like them apples??

    Seriously though, he's destroyed Tyrone and now Cavan, and they can score from distance too.

    Lots of handy things for them to improve on too and that was no where near a 4 point game.

    Its becoming the saying of the championship, but genuinely they are building very nicely there, the management them seem to be doing well too. Was saying it last year too, they've the footballers in the right places, they just need the stars to align to avoid injuries and Murphy to avoid a red card in a big game.
