@TYR2005 @irishnewssport This one? The one that shows arm to arm contact?
The elbow comes out naturally after a shoulder to shoulder tackle it's a natural body movement. He never made contact with anything other than the forearm and ball. Why did Mcguckian roll around holding his face?

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@atpkerry @CahairOKane1 Forearm to forearm and ball, you bought it just as the ref did.
You'd lost anyway when you resorted to insults but I hope that's cleared that up. Have a good Tuesday.

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@hand_oul @CahairOKane1 That should clear that up.
Perhaps you'll get the concept of sarcasm and why a head injury protocol wasn't needed at all for a forearm to forearm and ball tackle.

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@hand_oul @CahairOKane1 From the other side?? So that you can't that space between the players? This is the optimal view. This is it moved on, elbow not raised in contact, no contact to the head and Glen player already on his way down.

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@atpkerry @CahairOKane1 🤦‍♂️ There are no words. 😂😂

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@atpkerry @CahairOKane1 And again, elbow isn't even raised in contact. Now can you please stop polluting my twitter and enjoy your humble pie.

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@OrlaghMullan There's no contact with the head at all. It's not a "could be" it's a definitely not.

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@atpkerry @CahairOKane1 How many views do you need to see to admit that you and the ref got it wrong entirely Shane? Where's your contact to the face? I

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@atpkerry @CahairOKane1 You lost all credibility when you went on record stating that you could clearly see his shoulder making contact with his head. Now you have retracted to say its a glancing blow with his elbow to his face. This conversation is over. It wasn't a red and it was weak refereeing.

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@atpkerry @CahairOKane1 "clearly see his shoulder making contact with his head. Now there’s not massive force in it but that’s irrelevant"
Those are your words. Catch yourself on man, there's absolutely to contact to the head/face. Own it and be big enough to admit when you were wrong.

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@atpkerry @CahairOKane1 How do you apply a small force to someome's head and a large force to the rest of their body/truck using the same shoulder/arm? It's anatomically physically impossible. Just leave it.

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@atpkerry @CahairOKane1 Easier to maintain a front than to accept you called it wrong
As you know a force varies over the surface area that applies it and it is applied to. You claimed that he made minimal contact to the head with his shoulder, clearly proven wrong.

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@hand_oul @CahairOKane1 I can't help you there. But I suppose it's easier to maintain a front than accept you called it wrong.

[Donal McAuley @auldo01]

@atpkerry @CahairOKane1 You were incorrect by assuming I meant physics. Not the first call you got incorrect today evidently. I'll leave it there.
