Ah lads, who really cares what Brolly says, ye have given him plenty air time, maybe it is aimed at keeping in the news, or just simply his view, either way let’s park it, let’s look forward to the league. On a side note KC got over the line, just about, congrats. I agree with you. I saw the headline on Twitter today, knew straight away it had to be Brolly. I just ignore him and don’t read his articles. I suggest we all do the same. Brolly doesn’t care he’s wrong, just as long as he can stick it to Kerry. |

Was watching the Munster game so didn't see the club football final live but if its true that Kill Crokes had 16-17 men on the field of play in the last few moments is there not legitimate grounds for the result to be overturned?

It should be overturned and replayed. However Malachy O'Rourke said he would not appeal. I feel sorry for Derek O'Mahoney though. He had all the supports for a club game today (all umpires and linesmen) and the linesman makes an unforgivable error. However, the vultures will circle around the main official. You could understand it happening down the country where the ref could turn up and have no help at all. That linesman's career is over outside their county. |

I’m hearing that the 16 men were on the field for 4 minutes
Can anyone verify if so that s outrageous
Regard 17 players I’d not count that as one was e route to dugout and nor involved in play from what I understand

4 mins? Ah come on if that's true and even if Glen don't want to go down the route of appealing Croke Park itself should have to step in and protect the integrity of the occasion.
In rugby's Challenge Cup last week Bristol RFC was deducted points (rightly) from their overall standing in the group because they fielded an ineligible player in a game.

The key point is this,
There was 16 men defending the Glen's last attack.
Regardless of who is at fault the GAA cannot allow that precedent.

If there were 16 Glen Players also on the pitch and if they got a late goal would Kilmacud object and look for replay ??

What a mess. This will come down to how much the Glen push it. A replay is there for them if they want it.

My instinct, often wrong, is that they will accept the result.

It looked to me at the time that the ref knew what had happened (after the 45 was taken). The commentators on TG4 certainly did. If I remember correctly I think the ref went in to talk to the umpire and the commentators were speculating as to whether he was going to have the 45 retaken. Instead he blew it up as quickly as he could.

The GAA knowing that a team has broken the rules and just accepting it sets a dangerous precedent. Is rule breaking fine going forward? There’s no jeopardy? |

I can see Kilmacud refusing to play any replay if it comes to that.

Fantastic leadership from the GAA here - yet again, they wash their hands of decision-making responsibility and place the onus on the injured party to make a call. Farcical.

I doubt it, the rulebook allows for the game to be awarded to Glen so it would be stupid of kilmaccud to dig in when faced with irrefutable evidence of rule breaking. Under the rulebook there are 3 penalties that can be given against the guilt team. 1.A fine. 2.An award of a replay 3.Forfeiture..The fine would be for a small infringement like Paul Mannion not being fully off the field. However the other player Mullen was standing on the goal line as the Glen were attacking so that's a major breach so the only outcome is option 2 or 3.A replay or forfeit. As the gaa did the Pontius Pilate on it if the Glen don't complain then the result stands. The gaa are very wrong here and acting like cowards. |

Would it be too much to hope for to get a candidate for the next Association presidency who makes a commitment to a route and branch reform all these idiotic and farcical rules/procedures etc a central plank of his campaign?
You know someone who might just be willing to make sure that into the future in situations where there is a a clear breach of the playing rules games have to be repaid. Or that if a player assaults another on the pitch its a mandatory ban or that players getting red and black cards have to suck it up and not have their clubs/county boards using lawyers to get them of on some technicality.
There's a lot of very well paid people in various roles in Croke Park to sort this stuff out once and for all.
Is there any other sport in this country where there are so many flaws and loopholes in the rules?
Something happening once should be more than enough to ensure that eventuality never happens again. Its come to light there are plenty of precedents for this situation to be resolved if GAA HQ HAD the resolve.
Croke Park is a house badly in need of reorder!!

Not now according to what’s doing the rounds on WhatsApp in the last hour. The Glen are lodging a formal objection to Croke Park tomorrow, This will drag out now, some mess but the GAA buried their heads in the sand today when they knew an official rule had been breached. A very tricky situation for them as they can’t be seen to let this breaking of a subs rule set a precedent going forward. I’d say the Crokes Monday Club is a bit of a downer all of sudden. |

Word on the street is Conor Glass has been very sick during the last week. He was quiet yesterday. He is a top player. If the fame was to be replayed then Glass would be better plus I would think the game would Not be played in croke park thus maybe giving the advantage back to the Glen. However the ball is in their court now as the gaa have the head in the sand.

I was hoping that when the current incumbent was elected he might have brought a broader mindset to the job given his profession. However it seems that he is just another one of the suits who go along with the group think that is Croke Park. |

Of course, it would be stupid but I could see them make that threat to see if their bluff is called. Your bluff doesn’t mean sh*t if you have clearly broken the playing rules on a live tv game. Ffs what possible argument could they make? They have no hand, they want to forfeit then fine as it’s one of the disciplinary options anyways. It’s genuinely bizarre that we are even having these discussions. The GAA are, along with everyone else, aware that their rules have been broken but they are refusing to take the lead on sorting it. This is like being caught speeding on a speed camera but being able to get away with it because no other driver complained |

The gaa are the ones that should act straight away and say we are fixing a replay for next weekend in Clones or Breffni end of. This way they are hoping the Glen don't object. I feel sorry for the Glen as they might never get another chance to win an all ireland and if they object some will turn against them. Crokes erred but the gaa hierarchy have totally f....d up and ran away hiding. |

What will a replay do? Nothing.
Gallagher wants the Glen boys playing against Limerick on Saturday.
A replay might mess up his plans to make division 1.
A replay means the GAA admitting they got it very wrong.
Forfeiture is not an option either.
A wee fine for Kilmacud will be issued and that's probably all.

A fine for the biggest club in the country. Sure if Kerry are defending a small lead next year bring on 2 subs and tell the other players stay on. Defend with 17 and win and take a fine afterwards. A fine can't be the result or it makes a mockery of the whole thing. It will set a terrible precedent. |
