This could be worse than number one.
Yeah, it was a punch but... come on.
Solution: Man up.
Big players are being targeted.
Off the ball, when they hit a wide, after they pass off, they have men in their faces goading them and trying to get a reaction. They're trying to get them onto a yellow card so they might get sent off later in the game.
What did Sean Cavanagh ever do?
Solution: Say your team would never do that.
Soared up the ladder again this season, so much so that it is being held directly responsible for teams filtering men behind the ball.
Joe Brolly wants a whole new game that dictates that the 'keeper must kick beyond the 45' for no real reason but to stop this possession mumbo jumbo.
Kick the thing into the air and let two midfielders battle for the ball. Remember, manliness and stuff. This build-up nonsense is slowing the whole game down.
Solution: Declare the death of Gaelic Football.
Have you seen their population base?
Solution:
It's bad enough that the championship is bloody five months long but we have to sit through non-events as well?
These teams don't deserve to be in this championship, even if they can make it to the semi-finals.
We shouldn't have to watch these mismatches, even if they can all beat Division One and Two teams.
Solution: RESTRUCTURE.
Is there no respect for the sanctity of this championship? Who do teams like Kerry and Dublin think they are handing out beatings willy-nilly with no consideration of the viewing public?
The championship is dead. Is more dead if said Division Three or Four team tries to play defensively against the big guns.
Solution:
That's not football. You're not allowed to limit the opposition, play conservatively, use tactics or use your head or any of that nonsense. At least you're not supposed to anyway.
Ethos. Spirit. Manliness.
Solution: Change the rules so we can let the best teams hammer who they want.
Spitting's fine (as above). But if you spit on someone, you are a scumbag (not as above).
Solution: Blame negative defensive tactics.
Punch a man, knee him, bite him if you have to but do not speak ill of him. Before the Kildare game, their players were branded too nice. But there's a clear line between violence and threats and everyone knows not to cross it.
Solution: Get on with it.
Not as offensive as it was considered last year but it's still tippy-tap sh*te.
A northern eye-sore that goes against everything real men stand for. Hand-passing the ball to a team mate is the greatest insult to anyone who's ever sat down to watch a game of Gaelic Football and it's a direct two fingers up to your own supporters as well.
Apparently.
Don't even do it to run the clock down. Don't even dare.
Solution: Kick the bloody thing in.
Cheating, useless such and such. They need glasses, an opposition kit, and a lock of sense knocked into them.
Solution: Get pundits to publicly lambast them one by one to encourage more young people to take up the role.
Cowardly, underhand, dangerous.
Nearly worse than sledging.
