when does Ronan McCarthy's suspension end? 13th of May 2021. In related Cork GAA COVID news. www.irishexaminer.com/sport/gaa/arid-40254995.htmlWill be interesting to see how Cork County Board handle this one. Could potentially cost the club in question a county championship.

Are the Dubs in a bit of bother. They will lose home advantage for all their games and have to play in Croke Park instead of Parnell Park

Can someone clarify for me. The Dublin Gaa have suspended Dessie Farrell. Not the central body, as in the CCCC.... this is an internal suspension so yes? As opposed to an official gaa disciplinary sanction.
Can the CCCC load another suspension on the Dublin man like was was dished out to Cork’s Ronan McCarthy or are Dublin basically allowed deal with this internally.
The “Dublin Gaa” as opposed to CCCC is throwing me....

I am an avid Kerry supporter and what Dublin did was wrong but they are not alone and I include our own Kerry players. One player regularly has posts on his social media of him training at his local field On my daily commute to\from work, I pass a club that has two players in the senior panel and they are regularly in there and sometimes with one or two more In essence, can we please stop this charade to have Dublin hung drawn and quartered

Board has acted very quickly trying to attribute blame and punish Dessie Farrell trying to send the message that this has been dealt with now. According to Marty Morrissey Croke Park has made it clear that they will not be influenced by the Dub Co. Bd trying to take control of the matter. They may see the players involved as being people capable of making adult decisions. Croke Park can definitely dish out more suspensions after the charade by D. Co Bd. On a broader note it adds to the evidence that Dublin are a professional out

Going down to the club pitch is totally acceptable in my opinion, sure what difference does it make if it’s some field or park or his club pitch? Also 2 players doing a bit of running or whatever is far removed from 9 players and a coach. I wouldn’t be giving out too much about Dublin but our own Senior Football players and management are acting in a very responsible manner.

There is bigger " covid indiscretions " happening in this country than what the Dublin team have done Let's not throw this Dublin team to the lions because we jealous of their success

I’m certainly not throwing Dublin to the lions, I think IC training should be allowed from now but why are you trying to criticise Kerry players for doing nothing wrong in my opinion?

The dubs were just silly , very bad optics here especially using a gaa club to do it very stupid really. Farrell should get the 12 weeks starting from the same day as training resumes which i think is what mcarthy and tally got.i know tally got 8 as diff rules up north. Lose a home national league game and move on. As a gaa man I'm annoyed though a lot of embarrassing stuff in the last year 3 ic teams training when they shouldn't. Club teams celebrating etc it's juvenile and pig headed stuff whether you believe in these restrictions or not. I have been struggling to get enthusiasm for the ic stuff last year and this, doesn't feel real somehow and the utter dominance by Dublin makes it hard to care really im with dinny Allen on that it's getting harder and harder to get my excitement up for this keep ball stuff !

I sensed Des was genuinely remorseful while Derek personalised a recent bereavement and in the context that he had broken rules in his day, but this was a line nobody should cross, while he also 'commended' Dublin GAA of how smart they acted, i.e. took wind out of GAA HQ sails. Then riddler tell us we are envious - next the Lion will accuse the lamb, nil to do with Dublin but I have seen tyrants trip up the lamb while they get away with murder. This is a line nobody can cross and I am no stickler, like others on here if truth be told, I acknowledge everyone's contribution and that includes the vulnerable as well as the great, and in that order in this instance.

Did Des Cahills colleagues in RTE get a 12 week suspension when they attended a retirement party last year? On the topic, I am surprised how stupid Dublin were. Maybe its just another sign of just how invincible they believe they are. Also am surprised that their benefactor in chief, Bertie Ahern, hadn't stuck his head above the parapet and try and used his political brain to move the blame game onto somebody else.

Kerry Group and Kerry Co-op are having talks about rationalising their relationship. If a deal is struck it is suggested that a new joint venture company between Kerry Group and Kerry Co-op could buy the whole dairy business outright from Kerry Group. It is further suggested the name “ Kerry” would not go with the joint venture company.
I have no great understanding of these affairs but I wonder would this venture have any implications for our sponsorship? Something to worry about?

Not sure to be honest However I have always been surprised that Kerry group have stuck with us as usually when a company grows to their size they more or less forget about the small guys

i read somewhere recently that there is now no non dublin player currently playing that has a leinster medal. with Peter and Shane stepping away by my count we have 5 lads remaining from 2014. Murphy,Moran o brien,geaney, o donoghue and t.walsh from 09. Two of whom we didn't see post lockdown last year.
It's a small number I wonder how many Donegal lads are left ? Going on last year its Murphy,Neil mcgee, mcbrearty and mcgrath thats 4. Ciaran Sheehan from cork is the only other player I believe. That's 11 overall and i wouldnt be surprised if its lower by the time championship throws in. Christ its a low number and put in perspective by the likes of cluxton and mcarthy going for 9 this year!

I believe there was once the holders some 50+ minor medals in Tyrone who though eligible weren't on the senior team/panel - ah not the same point but was this Mickey sticking with the old? An interesting year it will be in Ulster, very, believe you me!

The ladies played Meath last Sunday in Navan and the Kerryman had photographs from the game showing that awful , scour coloured garment in full display.

So looking at the news this morning, the geniuses in charge on the country have come up with the following arrangements for the summer.
From July 5th you can have indoor dining (and drinking).
From August 2nd people are allowed to go to outdoor events such as a match or a concert - max 500 in venues of less than 5000 or 25% of capacity in venues that hold more than that.
The Munster Final, I think it is scheduled for July 24/25 and hopefully involving Kerry and Cork, would see nobody only the teams, County board officials etc allowed into Fitzgerald Stadium. A place where 80% of it is in the open air. And remember the risk of catching covid in the open air is extremely, extremely low.
While below in the town every bar, restaurant, hotel would be full of people watching the match on TV.
There must not have been a module in Cop On in the doctorates that Tony and his colleagues received, that's for sure.

Consider some of the nonsense: masks no masks, vaccines safe not safe, intervals between vaccines altered from week to week, two metres to one metre, safe to go into restaurant but not to outdoor activity, virus originated in food market in Wuhan now it seems it was a leak from lab in Wuhan (keep an eye on this development). must continue to wear mask even if vaccinated, oh I could go on and on. Taking advice from hucksters is a frustrating business. I would take advice from my grandchildren before some of these charlatans.

Now that the Championship will shortly resume, the question now being asked is whether vaccination could form the basis of a ‘Green Pass’ to potentially allow that section of the population to access some areas, like restaurants, air and sea travel, some sporting events, etc. I'm neither a pessimist, nor a negative person, but I like to think that I am a pragmatist and a realist. There are serious reasons why splitting society along the lines of vaccinated and not-vaccinated people might not be a good idea. It’s not hard to imagine how the split might generate resentment; imagine being locked indoors while your vaccinated neighbours gallivant around the world. Social cohesion would suffer hugely, putting it mildly. But people will know the reduced risks and are likely to become less compliant with lockdown restrictions if they believe themselves to be immune anyway.
At this stage, it seems likely that vaccine certification will play a role in international travel for months and years to come. For years, you cannot go into a lot of countries unless you can prove that you are vaccinated against certain diseases, yellow fever for instance, and nobody cries foul. When airlines will tell you that either you show up with proof of vaccination or stay at home, you don’t have much wriggle- room.
Lockdown measures considerably curtail people's freedom. Vaccination passports would potentially allow some proportion of the population to access more freedoms during lockdown periods. It’s already working well in Israel. The UK and the EU are making similar noise. It is unethical to restrict people’s freedom unless there is a real risk to themselves or others. If we have the technology to decide who is not a risk, should we use it?
There is a universal law called Karma. In this case, it may well be superior in its effects to any form of coercive governance. Doubting the experts is an amusing pass-time, but does it beat partying in the Canaries or watching Kerry play Cork or Dublin, live?

What people misinterpret is, it isn’t the venue, the open space or the time frame of the event. It is the location and the surrounding amenities.
Croke Park could hold 15,000 odd with social distancing. The issues isn’t the stadium, it is the access, entrance and exit and the journey to/from. It’s 15 thousand on the same road, the same Luas stops, the same eating houses and the same shops on route.
Similar with Fitzgerald Stadium and for other sports venues, it’s the journey not the destination that is dictating the restrictions
The solution is a vaccination type ID Card – this eradicates all reservations with regard to transmission.
