Gary Lineker had really gone up in my estimation until this. The way he takes the sweet out, unwrapped, sneaks it in, doesn't ask either of the lads if they want one. So polished, he's clearly done this many times before. Pocket sweet eaters are the worst of people Gary Lineker

In the history of Tuesday Clubs, has there ever been one like this? Tyrone champions Loughmacrory welcome Armagh champions Madden. Both first-time winners, with brothers on both teams. Even for the GAA, this is so unique

Footage of the Noel McGrath shot that was waved wide by the umpire but put up on the scoreboard by RTÉ and in the ground. Was never corrected. Official scoreline is including it. Both managers say they didn’t notice, they thought scoreboard was correct

Great footage of Cork's goal on a day when we have nothing else. Was told by the GAA to stop taking or sharing such videos after the Ulster final because it was infringing on the broadcasting rights and breaching my accreditation agreement 🫣

Alternative angle of the free awarded to Conor Turbitt to win the game. Does look more of a foul from this side.

What a score that is from Éanna Burke

Such a sobering half for Antrim. Waterford lead by 2-14 to 0-4 but had it not been for a litany of misses, the gap would be considerably wider than 16 points. The biggest difference has been physically. Waterford driving out of every ruck, winning every puckout, every 50-50

Brilliant last-gasp diving block by CLG An Clochán Liath’s Dylan Sweeney to secure a 0-12 to 0-10 victory in Glenswilly. Full coverage to follow

Odhran Doherty with the point to send it to penalties again

This is actually match footage of it in practice at the end of the 2022 All-Ireland semi-final (thanks to Karol Dillon for saving me trawling YouTube). They shortened numbers, made it 4v4 and Shane Ryan waited until Ó Beaglaoich got the yard of separation. High risk, high reward

Saw this earlier and just thought it was a brilliant video, a great example of proper coaching. “You’ve gotta miss with it now to score with it when you’re older.”

The full four absolutely chaotic minutes at the end of normal time. Lesson: Never listen to anyone that tells you there’s no point arguing with a ref because they’ve never seen one change their mind

Shane and Jason Carey’s sister Laura married Monaghan footballer Ryan McAnespie on Saturday. The boys went to the mass, then the match, then back to the wedding. This was the reaction at the wedding to the final whistle in Armagh. Magical stuff 📹 Jamie Donovan films

Sad news of the death of Tyrone and Ardboe legend Frank McGuigan. His display in the 1984 Ulster final will always be remembered. Left foot 0-8 Right foot 0-2 Fist 0-1 Solo dummy x 4 Too young to have seen him live but those who did have him among the greatest

Don’t agree with this at all from the London-Mayo game. Mayo score on an advantage but are allowed to say they don’t want the point and go back for a two-point free, which they ironically then miss. If you score during an advantage, the score should stand

The Wexford Aguero

A 12-week ban for Jim McGuinness would, just like Ger Brennan, not match the crime. The rule is out of sync - largely because of the widespread appeals culture that exists in GAA YouTube: Spotify: Apple:

“I don’t listen to those people. Most of them have never coached at inter-county level. Most of them have never stood on a sideline. Most of them have never won anything as a coach.” Jim McGuinness on criticism of his team’s defensive approach in last year’s All-Ireland final

Donal Hughes’ winning goal in stoppage time that saw Official Down GAA to a dramatic, very hard-earned victory over Antrim in the Joe McDonagh Cup. Finished 1-22 to 0-23, repeating Down’s league win

This is actually the best video of the lot - the Madden players arriving in Loughmacrory and the two teams singing “we are county champions” at each other 😂😂

90 seconds of box office Geezer. The best of it was my last question was going to have nothing to do with referees but he was just in flying form by that stage!

Some numbers on the GAA+ v RTÉ debate that took me ages to memorise for this week’s Monday Club podcast. GAA+ took in €5.3m in subscriptions for 2024, you’re talking 60-70k subscribers at that. Is closing massive games off to those numbers good?

The GAA have gotten off very light for partitioning their broadcast rights when Sky entered the market. They knew the implications in the north and did it anyway. Ireland &amp; UK rights should be sold together in 2027 or geoblocking issues will continue

New hooter, old hooter, referee’s whistle, foghorn, it doesn’t matter how a game of football ends, teams have learned to try and control the final few minutes. 2024 final, Galway kept ball for just under 3 mins before taking the shot. Ref’s whistle is so much less hassle.

August All-Ireland finals are a bullshit move. They make no positive difference to anyone except journalists. There isn’t a single solid argument to do it. This week’s podcast with Find Insurance NI Watch/listen YouTube: Spotify:

Tyrone fans trying to get to Croke Park in two weeks’ time. There’s always a Derry Girls scene for any situation 🤌🏻

Sean ‘Minnie’ Ryan’s goal for Wexford GAA with the commentary from SouthEast Radio’s Liam Spratt dubbed over, inspired by Anthony Masterson’s request

Clips yesterday made a strong case for Sleacht Néill. These two clips are presented without comment but in the interests of fairness and balance in the debate and to both teams. First one shows a two-pointer for Sleacht Néill when the foul appeared to occur inside the arc

Incredible recovery and tackle by Eoin McElholm towards the end of the drawn Tyrone semi-final between Loughmacrory and Carrickmore. The timing and the technique of the rob had to be absolutely perfect.

Full highlights of an incredible game (mostly the second half) in Omagh tonight as Loughmacrory edge Carrickmore by a point in their semi-final replay. Great footage from Mac AV on Tyrone GAA TV, sharing this to showcase the sheer excitement and undiluted chaos of the game
