@offtheball @DermotCorry What has the FRC done when a renowned rugby coach is on about teaching gaelic footballers how to kick a ball. How long will it be before a ball is kicked more often in a game of rugby than in a game of gaelic football? A slippery slope

🗣️ 'Gaelic footballers, there's a massive emphasis on distance... it'd be really interesting to see if they would learn to practice by kicking more balls but with less effort...' One of the world's foremost rugby kicking coaches, Dave Alred shares some advice for Gaelic football kickers on how to improve accuracy, and preserve energy while kicking. | 🏐🏉 Wednesday Night Rugby on Off The Ball with @BankOfIreland | #NeverStopCompeting

@arleneseesit Would they be running on an abstentions ticket or would they make their mind up after the results are in.

Let’s do a thought experiment. There is a UI, Unionists stand for election to the Oireachtas, they win seats and refuse to take those seats denying representation to all of the constituency. Would those in the constituency & RoI accept this situation?

@richardtgarland Can you not get your head around the fact that they're not Irish language signs? They're bilingual. If you have a problem distinguishing the two languages, maybe there's someone you can see about that

Hard to understand the logic of Sinn Fein and SDLP trying to push for imposition of Irish language signs on a street where 67.47% of residents have voiced their opposition to the move, with only 15.66% speaking up in support. Do these people support democracy or not?

@DarranMarshall I hope Croke Pk have updated their health & safety policy around flags by then

@CahairOKane1 Michael Langan only making one selection? Michael McKernan missing a game and a sub, not sure how to take that?

The XVs the three of us ended up with from yesterday's podcast. One player per county. youtube.com/watch?v=KFHr1D…

@m_brosnan How do teams hold onto the ball when they want to run the clock down. They handpass it back and forward to death. How many times does the ball be kick passed in this time? Teams don't kick the ball as it carries a bigger risk of giving it away.

Don’t hate the player, hate the game. What Meath did today was really smart. Big the hooter change was a massive mistake.

@d_mc_cullough When Jimmy shook his hand at the end of the game, the lack of respect and the look says it all

Poor Jack he deffo won't like the Noridies now🤣🍏🍏🤣🤣🤣🤣

@brendanhughes64 @BBCGarethG @BBCNewsNI Is the pope a Catholic?

Is the Northern Ireland Executive dysfunctional? ✍️ @BBCGarethG bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… @BBCNewsNI

@landpalestine @gildernewm Yet the Catholic Church in Ireland has its properties insured by Allianz a genocide enabling company

@JP_Biz Storm Eowyn was rare but still ESB profits are high thanks to soaring energy bills. The network is substandard and the bill payers continue to get fleeced.

ESB, the Irish state enterprise which owns the electricity grid on both parts of the island, made an operating profit of €914m last year. NIE Networks accounted for €99m of that. Profits were down mainly due to costs associated with Storm Éowyn.

@roundtheD @UnofficialTYR1 You're being generous

@UnofficialTYR1 7 players on that team wouldn’t make a county team.

Can see why the crowds are falling off.

@bbcnewsline Do you care to name these senior US politicians?

Senior US politicians gathered last night to remember those from Ulster involved in the signing of the American Declaration of Independence 250 years ago. The event was organised by Communities Minister Gordon Lyons, and our Political Editor Enda McClafferty was there

@DarranMarshall @endamcclafferty 15 events in 4 days. Did these events include speeches after breakfast, lunch and supper?

Did Stormont Ministers travel to the Washington in business class? @endamcclafferty asked the dFM about the value for money of sending four Stormont Ministers to the US during a cost of living crisis. The dFM said it was value for money and she attended 15 events in 4 days.

@EamonnMallie Seriously Eamonn, MM defends KS but can't correct Trump when he is asked about the words of his own President? MM may claim that she is not his president but she was elected by the Irish people.

TAOISEACH Immortalised. Irish PM Micheál Martin will be immortalised in the wake of his civil but uncompromising support for British PM Keir Starmer and the EU faced with a hostile commentary towards both from President Donald Trump in the White House yesterday.

@CalltoActivism And yet MM failed to defend his own president or is he still sore about the Jim Gavin own goal

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Donald Trump is completely humiliated on LIVE TV after he criticized UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Ireland Prime Minister Micheál Martin quickly slapped Trump down: "Starmer is an earnest person who gets to work with very nicely IF YOU HAVE CAPACITY.” Wow.

@timmckane The whole point of the big guys show is to deepen division and to oppose any kind of integration. If this place was at peace with itself in a lesser sectarian society there would be need for his show. He knows that so he feeds into it whilst swimming in cash

One wonders what the host of #NolanLive thinks when he puts up a graphic showing the average wage in NI is £37,100 and MLAs are going to be paid £67,200, and he gets paid over £500,000 from the public purse for what exactly? Going on the radio and telly? That we’re the stupid ones?

@reptracker As long as they play Israel. Its all about the money for the FAI

The FAI today released their new football strategy, outlining the roadmap for Irish football over the coming years. Some key targets from the plan include: • €865 million investment needed in football facilities across Ireland. • Building 5 UEFA Category 3 stadiums and 15 UEFA Category 2 stadiums. • A 15-year funding ambition of €426 million for football development. • Significant investment into League of Ireland academies and club staffing. • Expanding grassroots participation and improving pathways in women’s and girls’ football. • A renewed focus on regular qualification for major international tournaments. The report also highlights the scale of the infrastructure gap in Irish football with 62% of grassroots clubs currently lacking female toilets. A hugely ambitious plan that aims to address long-standing structural issues within the game in Ireland.

@paulfrewDUP So a torn flag was flying over a public building. How long was it flying in a torn state?

@danirl32dev It was torn

The Union Flag on Ballymena Town Hall has been replaced after I received complaints in my Constituency office last week. I thank Council for their action in this regard.
