The Football Pod: Summer on a knife-edge, Jim Gavin’s New Rules, Benefits of the Tailteann Cup

What is killing the game is the amount of hand passing of the ball.There are defenders and mid fielders playing inter county football who never ever kick the ball. Get rid of the hand pass .

Sorry Paddy but Armagh are not a dangerous team nor a handful to anyone...they bottled every big game nobody will be afraid to play them. If Mayo lose to Dublin they be delighted to get armagh in a quarter final and as u say Galway would beat them if Comer and Kelly were available .

JamesO...No scoring difference in Kerry's County Leagues if teams level on points, playoff games instead.

I thinks if you stop letting player dropping back make it that 10 to 12 player have to say in half the pitch hence you have to play football and show they talent of player who can play and show off there skill

[@rudders38]

Would the 2nd place teams really not wanna play Derry? I think Derry are just waiting to be put out. There's no similarities to Kerry 09, Derry have been well beaten in all 3 championship games.

[@cannibalholocaust3015]

Derry had their big chance last year, had circumstances around RG not occurred who knows what may have happened.

[@bryanhealy6325]

Surely if cork beat Tyrone this weekend having them finish top of the group ye have to start talking them as a top 6 team in the country. Think they finally deserve some respect as a top team and not an over achieving division 2 team

Get rid of the attacking mark

[@michaelharnedy]

It's rarely used. Maybe a handful of times a match...? I really don't get the level of hate it generates.

[@tomgreene1843]

Players interfewring with each other before throw in should be punished ...it would stop a lot of nonsense. Like the 2 points but not the 4 points goal.

[@runmethat9909]

Soft let them at it from the jump

[@eamonmac2751]

2 points is stupid

[@junglebhoy7]

Armagh are a handful

[@Mark-0O]

The best chance Derry have of getting to the QF is if they draw Louth in the preliminary regardless of the Mickey Harte story.
