A mass scuffle during the Mayo Vs Meath All-Ireland football final, 1996
The Congress of the GAA
Will be meeting before long to say
They’ve come up with a rule
For when losing one’s cool
Becomes an official melee.

They should have won the 1st match, been moaning and cribbing about that fight ever since..
tell ye wha’ tho
whenever ya see mass brawl, or mellee or scuffle
and GAA
you’d know Meath are involved
Shur’ look at Geraghty there looking around him ta’ find anudder Mayo divil to punch out
Fun fact: Geraghty made his Sigerson Cup debut at 40 years of age.
He also ran for FG in the 2007 General Election.
And when asked why he answered “shur’ it’s a bitta craic”
Anyone remember the Ozzie lad that knocked him out at the Compromise Rules in Croker?
Tink it was Greg Akermanis
Anyway, he got nominated for RTE Footballer of the Year …
I don’t think John knows how GAA people pronounce melee
“schmozzle”
a bit of afters
handbags
getting to know each other
s’all
GAA. A game defined by what it’s not.
