Top men in GAA are pussycats.

I am shaking my head at the craven way the top men in the GAA throw in the towel so cravenly to the rugby confraternity.
Earlier this week I heard a rugby head from Australia blatantly pitch for all Gaa players to participate in some new form of rugby which would soon be introduced here and worldwide and which will have Olympic status.
Later in the week I hear the top guys totally roll over and promise the use of all GAA grounds to facilitate the holding of the world cup in rugby here and heard the Secretary of the GAA laud the pleasant and cordial relationship he had with the Rugby crowd.
All he was short of doing was to confirm the Aussie rugby man's call to GAA players to take up the new form of rugby too.
After selling out the GAA rights to Sky and denying the poorer grassroots supporters the right to view certain championship matches for the first time in our history these guys seem determined to pass the advantage yet again to a sport which we are in competition with and to popularise it even further at the expense of our own Association.
All the bullshit about giving Croker to the Rugby boys for  the English match in the national interest didn't amount to a tin of beans when it came to recruiting players from Rugby to the GAA  nor did even one Rugby a school convert to the GAA as far as I am aware.
And of course the political establishment did sfa to  settle the Garth Brooks situation in the GAA's favour.,thus causing it millions of euros in lost revenue
You would have thought that Sean Kelly who engineered the handing over of the stadium to the rugby people  in the national interest  and made his political name as a result might have remembered where he came from and get his finger out but not a word about it.Eaten bread is soon forgotten indeed.
One is tempted to say that were these guys in charge in 1921  the Auxiliaries might have had the keys of Croker bestowed on them after Bloody Sunday but I wouldn't go just that far.
