GAA

I'm surprised there's a difference between the settings. I'd have assumed Hawk-Eye would just track the position of the ball. If the centre of the ball goes through the posts, then it's a score - if it hits the post (which I guess is the assumption here) then it might yet go over (so needs tracking) or it might not (and that'd be recorded).

[JohnC]

That game. That score. That ending.

[Smoothy]

Who won? Clare?

[JohnC]

Yeah, Clare. 5-16 3-16

Wow, has there been no GAA discussion for 2 years?! Shocking really, seeing as we have witnessed some of the best, and some of the worst, matches ever this year.

Sorry to reanimate this thread for my own selfish means but I think it is worthwhile. Some people may remember me mentioning that I was building a Gaelic football game. We are going to be (hopefully) launching a Kickstarter before the end of the year and I've just released a survey for some info surrounding it. Just thought I'd share the survey here for the guys who might be interested.

Cheers.

Probably cos Kilkenny always seems to get to the final... and then win it

But the Tipp/Galway semi final was a match for the ages! The 2 football semis should be crackers as well. Tyrone will get a lot closer to Kerry than most people believe, I think, Mayo will beat the "invincible" Dubs too. Mayo for Sam this year! (Said for the 100th time)

PS. Good to see that rllmuk value things like everyone else! (RE: survey) [/sarcasm]

Would be great to finally see a Mayo win if they don't choke for once.

That and a resurgence of Ulster Football in the next few years and I'd be happy.

[MojoChin]

Ulster was responsible for half the entrants in the QFs and each of the Provinces are represented in the semis so it is good enough from an Ulster perspective. Just need Armagh to up their game!

[Guest]

When I say Ulster I mean a resurgent Down!

[the_debaser]

Just hope that Tipp or Galway beat Kilkenny in the final. They're doing my head in. 

[Smoothy]

Kilkenny in the final AGAIN?

[the_debaser]

Yeah. They beat Waterford in the semi final replay earlier. 2 class games to be fair. 

[Silent Runner]

Sick of these moral victories for Waterford against Kilkenny - just once I'd love to see them win dirty. Such a pity they left it on the pitch last week.

[the_debaser]

Yay, Kilkenny got a good beating. There's not much better than seeing a miserable Cody. 

[Gabzy]

Up Tipp!! Lovely to see.

[Silent Runner]

Just watched The Sunday Game, Tipp were so good. To hit 31 scores against Kilkenny was incredible, their front 6 were on fire. And that point Séamus Callanan got at the end of the first half was out of this World. Great win.

Do you lot want this thread to go in the Sport folder or do you like it here in offtopic?

[Gabzy]

I think it would be easier to find in the Sports folder, yeah. Don't know what everyone else thinks though.

[MojoChin]

Yeah Sportify it

Welcome... to SPORT.

Up Tipp!

 

Anyone know where I can stream the big match today?

It's on Sky Sports Arena in the UK. As you are asking, I assume you don't have a Sky sub, so this is currently working. No idea if there's better options.

Thank you!

[Gabzy]

Red card for Kilkenny and that was spot on refereeing, great to see. Hope Tipp don’t waste this now!

[Silent Runner]

Yeah, clear red. Not even Henry Shefflin tried to defend it at half time. Fancy Tipp to win it hopefully. 

[Gabzy]

Well they’ve had a great start to the 2nd half! 

[Gabzy]

Wow. Never expected that. What a second half from Tipp! Outstanding. Delighted to see them win so comfortably.

[Don Rosco]

Up the dubs! Like any self respecting blow-in, fair weather dubs fan, this is the first football match I’ve watched this season. And we’re gonna batter these and get five in a row. 

[Fry Crayola]

Not so much...
