    Does weight training have anything to do with football?


    Anythony Daly had the Dublin hurlers start their pre season in an Army Ranger boot camp. Apparently first thing that happened was Garry Maguire was made to keep doing pushups while a Drill instructor stood on his back, Maguire is Diabetic...people would probably say that was as bad

    Football requires a certain physicality and fitness that can be partly obtained by weight training. Hurling too.

    Again if I’m a senior player in that Dublin camp I’m expressing my concerns to Daly... if I end up in a situation where he is saying you ARE doing it or you are getting dropped I’d want the panel to say en masse... ok you are dropping 30 of us. Followed by a phone call to the chairman of the county board informing them of what is the expectation, to be assaulted as part of your training routine at some toy solider bully boy boot camp with some knuckle head standing on your back as you are forced to do push-ups.

    These guys have family, jobs and other responsibilities to take care of, no way should they feel obligated to or ever asked to undergo that carry on with the risk of compromising your health, livelihood and family life.

    Dublin have access to the best of fitness equipment and facilities, no need for that shîte.

    That whole post was just to say that.


    But am I wrong? isn't this accepted fact that Dublin invented it? Tyrone must be wondering how come they missed this one...

    Ok so when was it ever used before as a tactic by more than one individual?

    If you go back to the game in question Keegan dragged Kilkenny to the ground before the ball was thrown in, so technically you are wrong.

    Jayzus, if we invented this jiggery-pokery, I hope we're getting paid decent royalties. All those helicopters delivering post training grub to the lads on their own private Caribbean islands won't pay for themselves, ya know !

    Technically I asked when was it used by more than one individual as a team tactic? Dublin used it first. No issue with Dublin using it but it should be something that is stamped out now and close the loophole. To me gaelic football is a **** of a game for the most part but at least Dublin , Kerry and Mayo are watchable.

    "Dublin invented this move against Mayo a few years back, the thinking is that even if someone gets a card it's worth it"

    Your quote, as I said Keegan used it prior to a Dublin player using it, so to go by the actual evidence, Mayo via Keegan started. If you want to deflect and say wht you actually meant by inference that you meant a collective, so be it. It was a sly dig and you know it. Not going to debate it further.
