@ShaneSaint Everybody saying need to do something to stop the short puck out, how about teams actually mark the fucking full back line if everyone is marked can’t go short.

There’s a meeting tomorrow in Thurles on how the game of hurling can be improved, which is to be chaired by John Meyler and Willie Maher. Unfortunately I can’t make it, but sent the following suggestions. Let me know what you think. KEEPER CAN’T TAKE BALL IN HIS HAND FROM A BACK-PASS - if the ball is passed back to the keeper during play, he may not take it into his hands. He can control it, strike it, whatever he likes, but can’t take it in his hands or even do a handpass off the stick. This will make it harder to recycle - meaning pressing high is more likely to cause exciting turnovers. PUCKOUT OPTION TO ENCOURAGE MORE 50-50 CONTESTED HIGH BALLS - ⁠for puckouts, each side must keep three players inside 21 (but outside the penalty box) closest to the keeper when the ball is struck. The puckout must also pass the near ‘45. This will lead the less mass defences, and more 50-50 contested high balls. - ⁠The unintended consequence could be teams bringing out their full-forward and full-back lines at the far end of the pitch. Worth trialling to see, as 50-50 high balls are a brilliant spectacle that we see less of. CYNICAL FOULS ANYWHERE ON THE PITCH ARE PENALTIES - ⁠all cynical tackles are punished by a penalty and a yellow card. Cynical tackles only occur when a team wants to prevent a move where a team wants to create a goal chance, so this is the only true deterrent. Too often, we see rugby tackles out the field late in games, and this would cut that out overnight. You’d expect this rule would rarely have to be used once teams see how (rightly) punitive it is. PENALTY SPOT MARKER 25 YARDS OUT - ⁠Penalties - paint a small line 25 yards out from where the ball must be lifted, and let the player jab and strike his penalty from however far forward he can take it from there. Brings back power penalties. Currently, you can see players more focused on not going past the ‘21 than the strike. NO QUICK PUCKOUTS - Quick restarts after wides have turned the game into ping pong. - ⁠Worth trialling, as I’m not convinced it will be a positive step.

@GloryGrassroots @SmallerFishGAA Galway played in the Munster championship before couldn’t win a game and ran out of it

@SmallerFishGAA I honestly think this would be magic. Limerick travelling to Salthill. Kk travelling to Ennis. Imagine 👌

Waterford and Tipperary are under serious pressure to stay in the championship and we're only in April Donegal and Meath went out of the provinces but are preparing for the All ireland series When will hurling wake up and have Provincials followed by an All Ireland series

@klgan678 I have never been so nervous in my life….🤯🥵

Anyone else have pains in their chest watching this…. #TheMasters2025

@FarmGraigs @progressivegen 👍. Always do the opposite of what everyone else is doing

Delighted with how these @progressivegen Tweeddale Lennox calves are coming on. All of incalf heifers we retained this year. Rightly or wrongly increasing our sucker cow numbers.

@mplspatsfan1 @JumboHart 100%

@JumboHart So you wanted them to tank.

The Patriots just notched the worst win in team history. 23-16. To finish 4-13 for the second straight season. And slide from the No 1 pick to No 4.

@ciarapower99 It is… but on the other hand ur far from normal 😜

About 6 times a day. It's this not normal

Just sack ten Haag now save him future embarrassment…attitude reflects leadership and he has no clue what the fuck he’s at!! Team have no idea what they are suppose to be doing,lazy,no heart…players not short of the blame but he allows it to happen. Cheerio Erik

A beautiful, sad piece by ⁦@AkaPaulHoward⁩ irishtimes.com/life-style/202…

@TheRealJT23 Tipperary were lucky Stevie Wonder was umpiring 😂😂

So Offaly and Tipperary it is. June 1st is going to be box office.

My @LittlePuckrs is going global... And by global, I mean to a bunch of new areas outside Cork City. Will go proper global in a few months, and by proper global, I mean to other parts of Cork and maybe a few new counties.. Would appreciate any RTs...

@fartygaz @markmur83857078 @Ianc1878 @LfcShaunjudge So why did he call on the physios

@markmur83857078 @Ianc1878 @LfcShaunjudge Signalling was right . I’m guessing he didn’t blow because he thought the keeper could just take the advantage . And speed the game up. You can clearly see before any of the BS happen ,Taylor signals a free kick for the challenge. Like I said . Handled it badly with his reaction

When West Ham goalkeeper Alphonse Areola made a catch following a Liverpool attack, referee Anthony Taylor indicated there was no foul in the build up and play should continue. Areola then threw the ball in front of him as if play had stopped. When Gakpo noticed and went for the ball, Taylor blew his whistle and stopped him.

@CarlowWeather FFS will someone put out the infant of Prague

Latest total rainfall forecast for next 7 days on two main models. Neither are good news but ECMWF has higher totals, especially in South and West. The land just can’t get a chance to dry up 😔

@ciarapower99 Ah sur more holidays 🙄

How is it good news for teachers ???

@JohnyI77 @paultreacy76 @BBCSport Ye had ye’re chance last year….😉

@paultreacy76 @BBCSport Here's hoping ...!

Man City's last six games in the Premier League 😬

@ConorWhelan30 @KieranScully2

@mrcolmcrowley What are u smoking over there…😂😂

Try £45,000,001...

@mrcolmcrowley 100% agree great to see. It could also just have been instinct. Sometime you wud do things in a game and have no idea why u did it… it just happened

I love the confidence in this finish. Most people would feel the pressure and catch it, but the willingness to double on that ball is a thing of beauty... The beautiful game...

@mrcolmcrowley Ah Colm u have played in goals…. U know the drill in football it’s you have to tie ur laces and in hurling it’s a mystery injury!!!😉

What happened with the Nicky Quaid injury when they were down 6 points

Wishing the very best of luck to our u15 girls and mentors in the DIVISION 1 all Ireland feile in Mayo this weekend. Ye are winners already representing the club, your families & County. #inchroversabu @CorkLGFA @eastcorklgf . 🏐🇵🇪
