    Always mentioned as the "elete" sport re Covid restrictions being lifted :cool:

    Are other contact sports not worthy of the tag?

    On the basis of the Luxembourg game, the answer for football is "no".

    My point being, GAA are always referred to as the Elete sport, why does RTE and the like call out GAA as "the Elete sport"? That's my point.

    Is rugby not elete?

    Mod:

    Go and ask in the GAA forum maybe OP, though I suspect you'll be given short shrift there too.

    Start another trolling thread like this here again and you'll earn yourself a holiday
