    Kennelly to quit AFL?

    Funny, AR seems to be the second rate game to us. Its strange, 2 of the only native ethnic games that survived soccer/rugby and you want to slag off the one you don't like.

    Ya can't get rid of the 'Hip and Shoulder'!!

    So anyone within 5 metres of the ball (or guy in possession) can be tackled ? Ergh maybe i'm missing something but isn't that also illegal in Rugby ? (as well as gaelic football) Whats the point in allowing someone not in possession to be tackled ?

    It doesn't exist ? If it doesn't exist then how can they play it ? You mean it ONLY exists at international level and not at club level.

    Shoulder to Shoulder charge (is that what your talking about ?) is allowed in gaelic football.

    New International Rules Manager

    McGrath = Pretty good Gaelic Football manager, maybe a bit overrated and certainly not in the top 15 in the country when he was selected. Petes problem was he seen a solution and made a gameplan around that solution and didn't take into account the consequences. i.e > Pick a small fast team...

    New International Rules Manager

    GAA matches would always be played at the weekend, almost always on a Sunday afternoon. I'm not sure of the setup in AFL but it would be extremely dicciult to expect GAA players to play mid-week, they do have jobs :P In practice, in the last few years, a lot of matches especially in the...

    And why don't ye like it ? I can understand why a lot of Irish people don't like it but i still don't understand why Australians don't like it. Any argument i've heard has being misinformed ignorant horse :D:D:D:De with the people talking clearly having no clue about the game.

    New International Rules Manager

    Floodlights at Pearse ? Not good. I believe Casement park and Clones have them, should be played there. Floodlights at Croker ? Good but still doubtful, keep your hopes up. The only reason they're getting installed at all is for the Soccer & Rugby matches that will be played there in 2007...

    Theres not really such thing as a Gaelic Football off-season especially for the top players. Gaelic Football and Hurling players play for their club (League and Championship) and the best play for their club (league and championship) and for their county (League and championship). Even...

    Ireland comp down to 4 teams

    Highlights only as far as i'm aware. The last series has caused a lot of anger thats still there. To a lot of people it brings back memories of the first IR series and why it was originally stopped. Its not that we aren't accustomed to physical play etc but in gaelic footy the rules make...
