Plenty speculation as to how that would work We won’t know fully unless they trial it “ the high density of players inside the 45 would result in plenty shots and yes plenty turnovers Arseing around the middle would produce no scores
Turnovers would encourage rapid kick passing to beat the defenders back two kick passes and then a score at other end with defenders trying to scramble back You’d have more long range shooting and More through the hands in close action with possibly more goals

id say the biggest rule that needs to change is ensuring that we have at least 3 players from each team, inside their 45 always.
pick 3 lads, inside forward, and put armbands on them and that should sort the overcrowding a little anyway. id say there will be some forwards delighted if that comes in.
do any of ye remember back in late 90s, only 2 handpasses were allowed in Kerry underage and then you had to kick it?

Would 12 a side with the full freedom of the field give us the same thing There's still limited number of plays at underage, more intended to promote development of all the players, middle and late maturing children, as opposed to just the early maturing boys. It's removed at adult level as all have reached maturity.

To the best of my knowledge serving Gardai cannot be members of the Dáil nor can members of the judiciary.

To be eligible for membership of the Dáil, you must be:
An Irish citizen At least 21 You also cannot be both a member of the Dáil and:
A member of a local authority (until 2003, it was possible to be an elected Councillor and a TD) A member of the European Parliament (an MEP), or another senior official in an institution of the European Union
A member of the Garda Síochána or a full-time member of the Defence Forces
A civil servant, unless your contract specifically allows it
Serving a prison sentence of greater than 6 months
The President, a Senator, the Comptroller and Auditor General or a judge
The Electoral Act 1992 also says that you cannot be a TD if you are ‘of unsound mind’.
It doesn't say you can't stand for Election, but if elected you could not take up your seat unless you resigned your position.

Any thoughts on replacing the handpass with a fist pass altogether. It takes away the ambiguity of a Throw. It is also more difficult to execute IMO.

They don't seem to implement that one. Looking at past winners Leo is likely talking about one of 2, Aidan O'Mahony or Nina Carberry. Is it the General or European election?

22 points kicked (16 from play) for Dublin, playing in about 3rd gear in awful dirty wet conditions. I'm just surprised they didn't ruthlessly go for goals but they could have, if they wanted to. Dublin have assembled a huge panel built for a condensed season that no other county has the resources to compete with. They already have every advantage going but the condensed season is a bridge too far for other counties to keep pace with in all seriousness.
In truth, Dublin can play this game any way you want it, but it’s undeniable they are now again the best attacking team in Ireland by a distance. The skill set, support play, and kicking including from distance, one has to admire it. Dublin just have too much quality and it's ominous for everyone else. Will they sweep the boards in 2024? I won’t be betting against it.

Dublin just hammering everything in sight Not their fault but making a mockery of this competition Gaa might have to look at offering home advantage to higher placed teams in the league or some such incentive Many teams now saying they don’t want to be in the final what kind of a competition is that. ?? I have a suspicion that Dublin may be doing their winter training on a synthetic pitch which plays much faster s and livelier that the Slower natural grass fields this time of the year I’m at loss otherwise to figure out how they seems to be so much faster fitter than everyone else As the season moves on the other teams will sharpen up but jeez Way off at present The other thing that annoyed me about Galway today was the never took on Dublin in the first half They had a tall 14 FF but they never played him in I don’t recall him touching the ball once This cagey lateral stuff is soul destroying never going to beat Dublin that way but second half Galway played a better brand too little too late

I never whinged about Dublin and their wins.
I never whinged about Croke Park home advantages or money.
I did believe it was a generational team.
But it's now very clear that it wasn't a generational team.
The narrative last year was it was the last dance.
Far far from a last dance.
The way I see it is a Kerry, Tyrone or ANO may Pick up an a ireland here or there however Dublin will clean up.
The GAA need to step in now.

Derry are nowhere near a full strength Dublin’s level and that’ll be shown in a league final if they get there, and only doubled down I suspect should they meet come championship. I wonder if the wily old fox Mickey Harte might be a sorry man yet that his Derry team won in Tralee. Derry may have to be content with winning a third Ulster title in a row, and that will be no easy task in itself.
On another note, the more I see prime Brian Fenton, the more he reminds me of until now the peerless Jack O’Shea. Fenton is clearly player of the league, and already a front runner for the player of the year. Dublin’s gain was our loss when his parents left our county bounds for the capital. What a footballer!

Good to see struggling clubs like Kilmacud getting a boost in numbers. Groundsman won't have to tog out this weekend.

He played underage hurling with Kerry as well.

Very sensible attitude from Na Gaeil. Fingers crossed he ends up back with them sooner rather than later. Obviously a big loss to the club but the working hours of a Guard in Dublin are not really conducive to football in Kerry. I remember Tadgh Morley mentioning in some interview that he felt that being invovled with Kerry became far more workable when he moved from Dublin back to Kerry (and he had the more footballer friendly hours of a teacher)
