Who cares?

Kenny has a million All-Ireland medals.

Indo Sport

Why does he care?

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

My point in this is not that he's wrong to say that.

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

My point is that I find it very amusing that this is the thing that all GAA players and managers reach for straight away.

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

We had a lot of it last week.

Indo Sport

I don't know what the modern, they were tweeted off.

Indo Sport

Some people thought the other team would win, but that's okay.

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

Like that's not, that's not, you know, people have to make judgments all the time.

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

It doesn't matter is my point.

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

it is like it's the GAA draw thing is like particularly in situations like that where Donegal has got to carry like your logistics you just need as much of a line aside as possible on that so it's only just over three weeks yeah so it's you know I can understand why they did it but it does overshadow the provincial finals in some way because you know you'd like to think going into provincial finals that even though you know there's something that comes next when it's being defined by the actual draw itself it's very hard not to be looking through the provincial finals ah yeah

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

But sure, what you do, like that's the sort of thing that in the 90s you'd be kind of going, oh yeah, your man's going to get a clip.

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

I've no idea what's happening.

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

I can't tell you how many conversations I've had since the draw yesterday, less than 24 hours, or just 24 hours ago, with people going, but what actually happens then?

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

But the great thing about the draw is that every round has a kind of serious consequence.

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

So, like, you're replacing the group thing, which had the odd kind of dead rubber at the very end.

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

I know, but it had the sort of potential.

Indo Sport
Bits & Bobs | Epic snooker, the forgotten GAA county & Conor's half-marathon injury

Yeah, I know.

Indo Sport

But you also had situations where a team would win their first game and was like, okay, we've won our first game, we're still in the group.
