    Sky are starting their Gaa coverage at 6.30 this evening. Hurling match first round of championship. Anyone with a few minutes spare, tune in and have a look. I think you'll be impressed with the pace and skill involved. One thing to remember, these guys are full amateur. Train three times a week while holding down full time jobs. Curious to hear any comments

    Best game of skills & total commitment from amateurs. No antics like footballers.

    A few things football could learn from the GAA.
    Players only go down when actually injured. No diving or faking injuries.
    Little or no arguing with referees.
    No crowd segregation whatsoever. Opposing fans sit together and never an issue. Imagine trying that at a soccer match anywhere
