Using big words when small ones will do can make you appear less intelligent
One thing got me thinking about GAA listening to this is the idea of a team glossary, nothing complex but how often do you explain your words and meanings to teams or do you just assume they’ll know?
This in consideration of Maurice’s tweet
It’s easy to say hindsight but if the data’s there in real time the correct decision can be made
71% on KO retention! MC should have forced the last kick short

Game management in Gaelic Football has changed.
Keeping possession isn’t enough.
Score value. Shot selection. Kickout strategy. Time remaining.
Should you concede a 1-pointer to protect against a 2? Contest KOs or give up possession
Data turns opinion into informed decisions.
This makes for interesting analysis particularly when combined with the expected weather forecast
The wind is expect across the pitch which will make two pointers inviting but difficult
Mfelt change approach and go with the risker style? Newbridge comfortable on 2pt attempts
Have a listen or read the stats preview on the Derry SFC final between Newbridge and Magherafelt

Anyone at any of the Ryan cup games last night with an opinion on how the trial rules went?
Haven’t heard any noise about it at all today on here
Is it pre-season yet?
Used the excuse all year I’m too busy to start this! Now it looks like I won’t have time to finish it!

St Enda’s of Antrim cantered to a huge win in the intermediate final.
Antrims intermediate championship is weak with at least 4 Junior teams making up the numbers but that’s a massive win!
If they can manage to keep that team together they’ll do much better in SNR than before
A headline doesn’t tell a story
A player doesn’t make the best coach
A statesman can be any punter
An analyst closes the gap
When the lines are clear the story is better
Two games I watched yesterday! Armagh and Antrim SFC finals
So it’s season over for the counties pov
What can be done to move Antrim closer to Armagh?
What can counties do in the off-season to improve and develop?
Does the issue sit with volunteer mindset?

In Armagh today, bumped into a coach, chatting away
He tells me they have the lads back in the gym from last week…. A player from Down told me earlier that his teams also back collective sessions in the gym!
Ffs! Come on here!
Go play padel

St Brids win their first Antrim Senior Football championship
They’ve won a lot under age recently so it could be the first of many
You’d be disappointed from an Antrim perspective that the quality of football at times was very poor!
How does the county improve quality?

Today in the Athletic grounds, the Wind 💨 is virtually null!
That makes for a very fair game of football!
I haven’t seen Killeavy play but looking at the end of League numbers they’d a great balance across the team!
Cross with 3 of Armaghs top players
Set to be a cracker 🚀

Not surprised a soccer coach has been brought in
It makes sense and Gaelic football coaching has a lot to learn

Two weeks after his appointment, Éamonn Fitzmaurice has his Galway Football mgt team together - some interesting moves; Dave Morris stays on. UEFA Pro Licence holder Lisa Fallon joins as coach, Kevin Johnson, Gareth Bradshaw & Gary O'Donnell all fresh voices around the squad #GAA
