It wasn't going to affect anything but you can understand why it should have been spoken about.
It's not like an in-depth discussion of the incident which saw Philly McMahon appear to gouge at the eyes of Kerry's Kieran Donaghy was going to set up a replay.
McMahon has since given his explanation of the incident but last night nobody, apart from Tomas Ó Sé, wanted to talk about it.
It was definitely the talking point at the end of yesterday's All-Ireland SFC final and the fact that one of the biggest moments of the biggest game of the year was glossed over by the panelists on The Sunday Game did not sit well with GAA fans.
One perspicacious Tweeter predicted the failure of the panel to discuss the incident at any great length.

Others were hopeful.

But when the panel claimed that they didn't want to get into the McMahon/Donaghy clash because it wasn't the night to do so, Twitter erupted!
