Hurling - A Misunderstood Sport

I've never seen this either. This is how I always imagined soccer could be improved. A man should be allowed to uses his hands in a sport

Well we have that sport aswell - Gaelic Football - it has good hits , no pads, football and hands used. Another great game!
We export some of our best young players to Australian Rules - a guy on this clip Martin Clarke played for Collingwood in Australia for a couple of years.

the goalie must be mental!! no pads! man sport
note the goal line referees....football could learn a lot form this. just a video camera will do!

Yup gotta agree Ozzie rules is frigging awesome, cannot see it ever hitting the USA however as it's too tough, not enough padding and game is too fast with not much opportunity to throw a million adverts into it.

Adverts - The death knell to exciting sport!!!

Hello Dermot! Long time no hear.
I recall a mutual friend, a certain Mr. Diamond telling me story about going to a hurling match and it all being very rowdy, of course. I believe the trouble was broken up by the ref letting off a couple of shotgun blasts into the air.. -
Only in Slaughtneil !!! They are covered in concrete now - the guns that is!! (Though there have been a few referees disappeared around Ballinderry!!)
