This has no place in our society. There was a lot of talk about racism about a year ago on the Twitter with lots of people getting vile abuse after talking about how proud they are to be Irish. I loved this tweet by one lad:
"Nicholas Óg @nioclasn
Lots of talk about Irishness on the #weareirish but how many of the trolls played county?
Cause I did 😉"
Personally I absolutely love to see the "new Irish" playing GAA. Playing GAA has a lot more to do with being Irish than what you look like... if Irishness can be reduced down to how you look then that isn't much to be proud about at all.
Any racist *e should be stamped out at every level. Indeed in the dressing room.

This is a very serious allegation. So until it is dealt with by the CCCC we should be very careful about discussing the actual incident. Let the authorities deal with it.
What we can absolutely say here that it is reprehensible for any player to racially abuse another on or off the field of play. Its really hard to believe we're dealing with allegations of this sort in this day and age. But sure then again I am aware of two young players I know that have had to listen to abuse from opponents. Not racist in the very obvious way but more sneaky and just as nasty.
Like Annascaul I am so proud and happy to see the "new Irish" playing our games whether hurling or football. Lee Chin had to put up with dogs abuse from idiots in Wexford as did a Crossmaglen player whose name escapes me at this moment from Kilcoo players and supporters. Both of them bravely called it out and the idiots were dealt with. Proper order.

Can't look past Beaufort against Churchill.
Na Gaeil, if Stefan Okunbar is cleared to play, look to be equipped to reduce Clifford's influence enough to get over the line by a couple of points.

Papers and everyone else writing churchill off but I wouldn’t be so quick To judge and them coming in as underdogs will suit them down to the ground. Carey the danger man for Beaufort but if they can contain him I think they’d fancy there chances. People saying it will be done before half time but I think this game will come down to the wire. In the na Gaeil and fossa game I think if both Clifford’s play well I think they will go through but no doubt about it that na Gaeil have some plan in place for them. I think it will be very close in both games and it will be interesting so see who emerge as winners

They also have the likes of Mike breen and Ronan murphy who can step up and ciaran Kennedy in the full forward line is also a handful on his day . You cannot rule out churchill though as anything can happen this late in the competition. Churchill are having a "fairytale season" so far and are going very well but this may be a step too far. As regards the na gaeil game I think you are spot on if they can put the shackles on the Clifford brothers fossa don't seem to have much more and I think if that happens na gaeil should prevail and make another junior final Prediction would be a na gaeil and beaufort final

Even here in Dublin at underage there are not that many considering the percentage of population. Soccer is probably the sport most would associate with and of course my other love, Cricket, which has benefited hugely from the influx. My youngfella was named on a Leinster team from his division and was getting slagged by his pals that he was the token white man on the team. The more people who play our games the better.

What a year churchill are having. I know they are out now but it must have been an unbelievable performance by the DIVISION 5 side... going from winning by a last minute goal two weeks ago to bringing the highest ranked team left in the competition to extra time and I believe they had a free to level it yet again in the final moments of the game. Churchill seem to be a young side and there is no reason why they can't rocket up the divisions in the coming years. Hopefully now their year does not fall apart now that they are out of championship. They are well capable of getting promotion this year off the back of such a fantastic championship run.
As far as I know churchill were down to 14 for most of extra time also that information may be incorrect though open too correction?

Plenty of stirring it too, stoking up fear and playing on cultural contrast, diversity, etc. We are welcome where we emigrate and also where we export to. West Africa is but one lifeline for the outfall from Brexit and that benefits the heartland of the GAA that is most exposed, specifically the less intensive farming areas of rural Ireland that are most reliant on milk byproduct, say in contrast to Kerry Group where dairy is 2% of the turnover.

They did have Cillian Fitzgerald sent off in the first period of extra time. The linesman drew the refs attention to Cillian raising his elbow to an opponent off the ball. Churchill were the better team in most departments and will feel very unlucky not to at least draw the game having had 2 frees to level it from about 40 yards. Beaufort were beaten midfield and this gave Churchill a good platform to score with their inside line doing well. Good game of football and that old saying of divisions go out the window in championship certainly was validated by this game. Must give credit to referee aswell who reffed it well.

Just goes to show that divisions mean nothing once it comes to championship and Churchill will be kicking themselves that they didn’t come away from that game with at least a draw. Have been saying all year that this Churchill side is one to watch and they proved how good they were yesterday. If it wasn’t for the sending Off I’d have fancied Churchill to win it but this experience will stand to them and there priority is now to get out of division 5. Churchill dominated midfield but were wasteful in front of goal which proved to be a deciding factor. In the na Gaeil and fossa game na Gaeil were comprehensive winners which surprised me as I thought it would have been a closer game. They did a great job on the Clifford brothers and dominated the whole game. It should be a very good final but I fancy beufort to win marginally

Final predictions?
On the basis of the semi final results na gaeil look to be going well and made light work of a promising fossa side and although beaufort clearly making hard work of their semi final and maybe were lucky to come out of it with a win. That being said they still have plenty of talent to win this competition if they turn up on the day
My prediction would be na gaeil to win by 2 or 3 points

Three goals in extra time by Beaufort!

One of the best games I've ever seen today.
Na Gaeil will be wondering just how they managed to lose.
They went 0-4 to no score up. Beaufort lost one of their most influential players to a black card. Na Gaeil went 5 points up early in extra time. And they still lost.
Beaufort showed great heart to stay in the game when it looked like going away from them a few times and scored what could only be described as some unorthodox goals.
Na Gaeil might complain about the way the ref blew full time but they should acknowledge that a point for Beaufort was waved wide a few minutes before.
Ronan Murphy was immense for the winners and got the best of his duel with Jack Barry in the second half. Fergal Hallissey and Liam Carey were good up front with Niall O'Connor being a willing outlet in the inside line all game.
Na Gaeil played in spurts and starts and Jack Barry epitomised this. The 3 Barrys, Diarmuid O'Connor and Stefan Okunbar were their most influential players.

Why did the ref blow it up at that point? Announcer said at least 2 minutes additional time. At the time Na Gaeil were standing over a free and were held up for 30-40 seconds. Ref blew at 12:04! Na Gaeil will feel very aggrieved, they were harshly done by on a number of occasions. On another occasion They were on the attack with men over at a crucial time and a ball was being passed to Andrew Barry, instead of stepping out of the way they ref decided to hunch down, literally to his knees, ball hits him on the back, hop ball. Counter attack chance gone. They’ll be kicking themselves over not finishing the game themselves, but they came out on the wrong end of the a number of decisions

Think your a bit harsh blaming ref for losing great game played by two good sides with your selective analysis you failed to mention Beaufort had a clear point marked wide that would have put them two up maybe you should be wondering why no na gael player would take a shot on in that last play that would have earned them a draw

Yeah I’d have to agree that there’s enough internal errors for Na G to concentrate on before they start to consider external factors.
The goals being one

They have no one to blame other than themselves. Over the last few years they've shown they just don't have the bottle in big games. Yesterday was another prime example of that

Absolutely they should have closed out the game themselves. It was an unbelievably entertaining game, huge scoring. The game didn’t deserve to end on that note. If it was Beaufort in that same position 1 point down with the clock ticking they’d have deserved a chance too. I don’t think anyone in the ground expected the ref to blow it at that time. Na Gaeil he ample chances to win the game. They passed the ball around the 45 for no longer than 30 seconds at the end, a shot was coming. A lot of neutrals like me at the game couldn’t believe he blew. There were stoppages in that additional 2 mins so to go only 4 seconds over was a bit strange. If he had played anothother 30 seconds Beaufort wouldn’t have batted an eyelid

For the record, the shot could have went wide, short, got blocked etc. not saying they’d have scored. But the game deserved a final shot and in my opinion there was time for one provided they didn’t retain the ball for too long

This was the case for the semi final so I presume it was the same for the final
