Mod Note Post #1 - The 2022 All Ireland Senior Football Championship.

You can’t get rid of human error.

you can dispense with either equipment that is unreliable or those who may not install and or audit it’s accuracy before it’s live use.

id love to know what testing scenario is in place before it’s use …on match days…

surly the obvious would be to kick points from various angles and of varying heights and speeds, film the balls going over the bar and compare the filmed points to the Hawkeye interpretation… if Hawkeye is accurately representing the actual path and trajectory of the football… off we go.

if a discrepancy is noted, forget it…

nothing ridiculous about anything I’m saying.

Yes, people saying Galway were cut to shreds in the opening quarter are wrong. It appeared to me that Galway were really focused on not conceding a goal early. They gave up a couple of relatively easy point chances but snuffed out any goal chances. Derry have been hitting teams for early goals in every game. It energises them and gives them a platform to hit teams on the counter. I felt at halftime that Galway would be happy enough with how things went. They went for it a bit more in the second half and put Derry away fairly easily. Derry looked terrible when the had to chase the game. Galways game plan seemed to work well. Derry are very limited in the forward department. Galway have class forwards, Derry held some of them today but Comer cut loose. McDaid did a job on Glass aswell.

I fancy Gakway to go all the way, they have the forwards to do it. No matter who they play it should be a better of a final. Derry are God awful to watch.

The very last thing the football game needs is to discourage long range shooting. The long range shot is often the only way past a blanket defence, imagine if that option was made less viable. The game gets even more defensive again.

Hurling does indeed though need to sort out the farce of being able to score basically anywhere on the field.

You can ring the GAA up and tell them it’s a ‘ridiculous’ decision as they have decided to bin Hawkeye for tomorrow.

i really can’t call tomorrow, I’ll go draw.

Anyone hear rumours that food poisoning is affecting some of the Kerry lads tonight?

Figuring out want went wrong is one thing.

but ensuring that the system won’t be inaccurate again is more important.

A system that has such a large impact potentially on results needs to be 100% failsafe.

again.. was it human error in its calibration or installation ? Or is the system itself potentially unreliable ?

remember we are talking well over a meter of a discrepancy here from the actual real life path of the football and what Hawkeye showed us..

A massive discrepancy. Huge.

Short kick out came into effect in the past 10 years, after Mc guiness as his team would just flood back.

They should ban forwards from going back behind the halfway line for the craic.

Periods there where Derry were just… employing what to me were ridiculously negative tactics. Loosing but absolutely packing everything and everybody behind the ball when Galway had possession… I’m thinking Derry lost that as much on the sideline as they did on the pitch.

8 scores in 74/75 minutes

Their goal came too late..74 minutes
