    Just quick query.

    Does the referee blow up for full time even if the ball is still in play, OR, is
    a GAA match the same as rugby, as in the whistle blows when 70 mins is up and the ball goes out?

    Was this (rugby ending) ever the rule?

    He can blow it whenever he wants. Often they blow it up when the ball is in mid air after a kick out or puck out. The amount of injury time played is up to the ref.

    The ref can blow up when the ball is still in place once he deems additional time to have lapsed. They will generally wait until an attack breaks down (They don't have to) hence so many final whistles straight after a kickout/puck out.

    The rugby ending rule was tried in the national league about 2 years ago where the game didn't end until it went out of play.
