I believe Didier Drogba's Barcelona goal celebration in which he slid over to the corner of the pitch while giving a soldier's salute is becoming increasingly popular!!

wot usain? (1 Posts)	Was at a junior game yesterday evening and after scoring a cracker of a goal,the corner forward decided to take of his helmet and jersey and ran towards the 50 or so people in the crowd swinging his jersey over his head.Surely a yellow card should have been given for this type of behaviour or is there a rule for this in the GAA?Children in the crowd were left traumatised!

Forget the card. When he got back to his position his marker should have given him the butt of the hurl into the balls and kill two birds with one stone.

The Mailman194 (66 Posts)	To be honest, if I were a defender thrown in at corner forward and scored a goal I would probably celebrate. Personally, I think the sport needs more celebrating and hurlers should celebrate after scoring points. A fella who plays for Realt Dearg in Dublin scored, and this is a quote from a former Letrim hurler, 'the greatest point of all time' in a champ game. It was TRUELY glorious. He celebrated by doing the standard run and jump. It was executed to perfection. I refound my love of the game after such a spectacle

Was it much of a goal? Did it deserve to be celebrated? Or could there have been a point being made to management?

cowpat (1,540 Posts)	Well, it would be a start if hurlers/GAA players stopped celebrating getting frees.........

FrancisNeedham (21 Posts)	Theres two brothers on our intermediate hurling team. Ones a corner foward,one a corner back. The Corner fowards celebration when he scores a goal is to immediately take a knee,face back down the field,bring the hurley up like its a sniper rifle. Once the brother thats corner back sees the fake recoil he dramatically hits the deck. Its an excellent party piece and even the refs have a good laugh at it

staycalm (1,081 Posts)	Are you sure it wasnt Robbie Keane himself that scored that goal?? He has said in interviews that growing up as a boy he always dreamed of playing junior hurling with Tubbercurry and leading them to a county title

KeepOnHurling (3,223 Posts)	Originally posted by cowpat: Well, it would be a start if hurlers/GAA players stopped celebrating getting frees......... this is true. It looks strange that players celebrate winning frees so much, of course if it actually results in a score they just run back to their positions calmly, not a peep out of them.
