DC second caution was tame enough but already on a card he should have known better, id say it was the instant reaction of the Donegal players that made up the refs mind. O Gara red was very soft, if he was going to be sent off he may as well have laid Mcgee out. I still think the Dubs played well within themselves and should get over Kerry with a bit to spare in the semi

Kilkenny was immense and our backs played very well. How Murphy got away with that wild swing on Fenton is beyond me. First red looked as soft as they come. A nothing tackle and Dermo gets the line for it. Didn't see O'Garas but the brother seen it on tv and said it was ridiculously soft. God, refs are ruining the game.

McGlynn pulled him to the ground, Connolly tried to get up and he jostled him some more. Connolly made a concerted effort not to make an aggressive move. Thing is these teams know the standard practice is two yellows. Job done. From then on all they have to do is make a mountain out of a mole hill of any Connolly challenge and a timid ref will fall for it. McGlynn almost assaulted Connolly after he tackled Thompson. He's no saint Connolly but he's just not going to be let play football by good teams. They're going to do their best to get him sent off. Anyway happy to answer that shower on the scoreboard. They, and Tyrone, are horribly negative.
