@lonesharkoy @ColmGannon Because trying to ban something in the GAA nearly always leaves you primed for speculation about loopholes and resistance. They don't like to be coerced at Congress. Find a positive wording and it might work.

@lonesharkoy @ColmGannon Maybe not so much looking to ban AI but wording to make a commitment to contract registered design companies for those jobs. Again, no guarantee they're not using AI but if the GAA do their due diligence when picking partners that can be mitigated somewhat. It's tricky.

@MortimerMurphy1 A slight traffic tailback from the Kerry side on the way into Newbridge is my shock prediction!

[Michael Foley📚🖊 @MickFoley76]

That is one dull draw...

[Cahair O'Kane @CahairOKane1]

All-Ireland SFC round 2A
Donegal v Cork
Galway v Westmeath
Tyrone v Mayo
Louth v Armagh

All-Ireland SFC round 2B
Derry v Meath
Kildare v Kerry
Cavan v Dublin
Monaghan v Roscommon

[Michael Foley📚🖊 @MickFoley76]

@BrendanFalvey You do not!

[Michael Foley📚🖊 @MickFoley76]

Terrific. And at 7mins 20secs-50secs...one word. Shilton.

@brendanbelfast Only fully-formed fixtures allowed in Be the CCCC. It's on the rules sheet that comes with the board game version.

[Michael Foley📚🖊 @MickFoley76]

In response to MASSIVE demand (thanks for reminding me, David), it's time for a round of Be the CCCC. You've got your teams and venues. One question: who gets Saturday/Sunday slots? Off you go!
Dgal v Cork, Cav v Dubs, Ke v Ky, Tyr v Mayo, Wh v Gal, Lh v Arm, Mon v Rn, Dy v Mh

[David Gilligan @DavidGilligan2]

@MickFoley76 Are you playing be the CCCC for the fixtures?

[Michael Foley📚🖊 @MickFoley76]

@brendanbelfast I know, 'nearly' is carrying a lot of weight in my last tweet! It's a tall order though for Cork. If anyone was doubtful, injury-wise etc, probably not the game to push it.

[Michael Foley📚🖊 @MickFoley76]

Luck of the draw: Cork beat Meath and get sent to Donegal. Kerry pummelled by Donegal, relatively easier game v Kildare. If you're Cork, you'd nearly send a shadow team to Ballybofey. Lose and you play a winner from 2B, but not Meath or Kerry.

[Michael Foley📚🖊 @MickFoley76]

@MortimerMurphy1 Do you count Kildare as a northern team? Anywhere above Limerick I suppose!

[Michael Foley📚🖊 @MickFoley76]

@charliemurrin And I did say nearly...!

[Michael Foley📚🖊 @MickFoley76]

@charliemurrin You're making a LOT of unrealistic assumptions there!😄

[Michael Foley📚🖊 @MickFoley76]

@Adamsoitis To be fair the game itself is such fun to watch at the moment there will be good matches. It's just the ties aren't exactly glamorous-looking. But we'll get good games I'm sure.

[Jonathan O'Brien @obrien_jonathan]

Ah, shit.
