I agree with Colm overall yesterday.
Okay, Cork got a few.
There was one or two, that shoulder from
Alan Connolly on Sean Finn was that free I agree on the two yellow cards were very soft but let them referee the game on its merits we're talking about referees too much they're too much in the spotlight and I just think it's making it more and more difficult and all this stuff going on we're talking about it here again today there's more pressure on referees next week again because I didn't actually you know when I was watching it I didn't think god this is a scandal and it's only when you kind of go on social media which again is an extreme barometer or you read reports afterwards or you listen to Ben O'Connor it's like
And Joe, what happens is the team then will, they will react to what's happening in front of them.
So they'll go out and if they get away, if backs are getting away with pulling and dragging and holding, they're going to do it all day long and et cetera, et cetera.
And this spare arm packet is a curse on the game.
We know that, particularly if you're a forwarder who's trying to get free.
Absolutely.
I think you have to apply the rules.
It's that 50-50 clash ball here and there.
But you can't have it both ways.
And this is the thing.
So I think there's a responsibility, I've said this before, on coaches and on players as well.
Because by your nature going out in these games, you're going to do whatever you can to win.
So it's that, there's lads simulating frees, there's ducking in, there's all that.
And the real strong referee will
will call that once or twice and say, I'm not giving it to you.
You're looking for the free, I'm not giving it to you.
And behaviors will change then.
