As you say Aidan, probably worth a punt 👍. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In American football, "to punt" means kicking the ball away to the other team. Apparently over there "worth a punt" means "worth a bet".

Apparently over there "worth a punt" means "worth a bet". I get it now! Yes, here in Ireland it would be similar in that PUNT & kicking Ball in Gaelic Football. Taking a chance kick from outfield to score a POINT over the cross bar ( below crossbar is a defended by keeper goal. Score a goal is worth 3 points ). Gaelic football and hurling goals look like a combined soccer and rugby goal/posts in one BUT BUT, I will give you all a lesson in Irish. Pre the EURO our currency was the Irish pound IR£ ... In Irish POUND is PUNT ( with whats called a FADA over he U - Púnt ). The Irish Pound - punt Éireannach ( "air-an-knock" ) So now Edited January 26 by aidan o driscoll 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In Irish POUND is PUNT ( with whats called a FADA over he U - Púnt ). The Irish Pound - punt Éireannach ( "air-an-knock" ) So now When we Americans PUNT there is no realistic expectation to score a point, it's not like kicking a field goal. We are giving the ball back to the opposing team for them to begin a new offensive drive with. But the explanation of the Irish Pound (PUNT) is very interesting! Or the English version, "worth a bet" (PUNT). Wow, this word sure can be confusing, LOL! Either of those would make sense in the context of "worth a punt".

In hurling the small ball called a sliotar ( "slitter" ) is hit from outfield from all angles to score a point over crossbar tween uprights or above. But doesnt always happen however more often than not succeeds. When it doesnt succeed its a punt also .. same in gaelic football which uses a ball similar size to soccer ball Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When it doesnt succeed its a punt also I should have said that it's impossible for the offense to score with a punt play. It's intent is simply to turn over possession of the ball to the opposing team and push them back as far away from your goal as possible. Similar to the way a goalie defending their goal in soccer (futbol) can drop kick the ball away. The alternative would be a place kick play for a field goal, that may or may not go over the upright at the goal posts. The punt is reserved for situations where you are too far away to kick a field goal. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aidan o driscoll 768 Posted January 26 (edited) @abacab Hurling .. probably the fastest field sport. All players amateur, but wow, what skills. Lots of people initially see it and say it looks dangerous ( due to hurlies and players knocking into each other ) BUT it isnt, it just looks that way, injuries etc very low ... players do not get violent with the hurly ever. Fantastic game to watch .. its constant end to end stuff. See 3 mins or so below Biggest days are in September when you have the All Ireland finals in the premier stadium In Dublin called Croke Pairc. Holds about 82,000 .. packed to the rafters Edited January 26 by aidan o driscoll 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
