@TheLooseH It's not so much that they're losing this match, nor that they lost in Durban.
It's the manner of the defeats.
Pitiful at times.

Crashing out of the Round of 16 of the Challenge Cup is not what the fans want.
It’s also not what the players or staff want.
A far cry from where we should be.

Who okayed these jerseys? Don't think I've seen a jersey clash as bad. Insanity.

Incredible. But shows damage AFLW is doing to women's game. More power to girls involved, they gotta do what is right for them. But given there aren't that many retirements from that group, they're truly eye catching figures.
Also shows how well Meath did last year in spite of!
Fergal Lynch@truefergallynch
When Mary Kate Lynch leaves to play AFLW later this year, Emma Duggan will be the only player that started the 2021 All-Ireland final win over Dublin to be still involved with Meath ... huge turnover
English
Agree with this. Think minor finals could be put before senior semi finals alright but the demand for tickets is absolutely massive for senior finals. You're saving about 10k of tickets. Nearly 13k attended minor final in 2022. People are quick to forget.
Paul O'Brien@PaulOBrienKil
Absolutely not. The @officialgaa should pay no attention to the clueless people asking for that. Look at the scene in the picture with the article & the thousands of people imcluding whole families who attend the finals. That wouldn't be possible with €100 tickets at Croke Park.

They really have ruined rugby with those rule changes. There's no back play any more, just box kick after box kick. Depressing.

@johnmadden2706 Stupid rule. Made way worse by poor decision making from the ref.
English
"Execution meets courage" he says (while turning off replies).
"Ego meets incompetence" is what sprung to mind for me
Ray Boyne@AnalysisGaa
Pressure doesn’t just test skill it tests decision-making. Extra time. Sallins one up. Free brought inside the Big D. An Ghaeltacht step back. Back themselves. Take the two. Execution meets courage. 🎥👏👏 @SportTG4

Ireland's kicking game has been excellent and Hansen in particular has been superb in reclaiming them. But it's very disappointing that rugby is gone back about 15 years as a result of that escorting rule. Why do back moves when you can just kick? #IREAUS
English
@BrophShane I'd have no issue with them being played before an All Ireland semi final personally.
English
Personally no....I've experienced minor games on or separate to All Ireland finals and the separate days are much better and allows more people to attend as tickets are easier accessed. 16000 at this year's minor final, and the demand for the senior final was already tight.

Is it time for minors to return to the senior stage? irishexaminer.com/sport/gaa/arid… #GAA

Not a shock but extremely disappointing and damaging for Mayo.
Best of luck to him but any sense of positivity around Mayo has just been diffused. #mayogaa

@cormacpro He played in loads of them but wasn't there in 01 or 24.
English
@Mayosupporter That's what I was thinking but then I was questioning myself because he was around that long and we kept getting to finals
English
Did Andy Moran win two NFLs?
I know Wikipedia says he did but he wasn't there in 2001 or 2023?
English
@fotoole13 Joe O'Connor in reckoning too. Excellent throughout.
Bizarre after his high scoring efforts, but David Clifford not really in the running.
English
Man-of-the-match feels a debate between Gavin White and Paudie Clifford. Both were outstanding.

I hope Luke Cowan-Dickie enjoyed that roaring rendition of Sweet Caroline as he lay prone on the ground, with a serious injury that could end his tour, before being stretchered off
English
@stephen_dunne @ek_rugby Agreed, did he not replace Casey with ten mins to go?
English
@ek_rugby Did Ben Murphy not make his debut off the bench last week?
English
Great to see 4 more debuts for Shayne Bolton, Alex Kendellen, Ben Murphy and Hugh Gavin.
That win in Georgia was a pretty impressive result, all things considered. Would be great to see this team back it up against Portugal.

Mayo Football Talk@MayoPodcast
Club delegates at tonight’s meeting of the Mayo GAA Board have been told that the county’s Under-20, Under-19 development squad and Under-17 football managers have all decided to step down following the conclusion of their 2025 seasons. Mayo GAA now looking to appoint four new football management teams over the coming weeks. #mayogaa #GAA
English
@JohnFogartyIrl The panel kept sayin James Owen’s had score at 4-20 but he didn’t.
English
Integrity of today’s semi-final was brought into question by human error but a mistake all the same. Kilkenny were seriously hard done by. They chased a goal they didn’t need. At the same time, Tipperary defended a goal they didn’t have to.
English
@MortimerMurphy1 @jcoshea I think the referee actually got this one right too. He runs into contact far more than he's pulled back.
English
@MortimerMurphy1 @EndaMcGearty That's a penalty for me. Definitely not shoulder to shoulder 🤷♂️
