| 1625160269696495625 | 1/2 @gaelicplayers - Inter County training officially allowed back on 24th November and players haven't received 1 penny of expenses up to this point. Players (especially student athletes with no other income) are out a lot of money in the middle of a cost of living crisis. | 76 |
| 1626302913072054272 | Absolute privilege to feature on the amazing @Laochra_Gael series this evening to tell my life and sporting story representing @CharlestownGAA @MayoGAA @officialgaa @gaelicplayers https://t.co/q00PyuD6Lu | 40 |
| 1625106299447922689 | Next up we have @MayoGAA Legend @TomParsons_8 🙌 ⭐️ Tom Parsons ⭐️ Déardaoin 9:30pm ar @TG4TV @CharlestownGAA @gaelicplayers @nemetontv https://t.co/p7Lw5NGP05 | 9 |
| 1625168857747931142 | @AidanNugent12 @gaelicplayers Probably a good time to add that female county players only get a one off payment from the GPA, well after the season has closed. This only recent is appreciated but in future if we want an equal playing stage for the sport, surely it’s something needs considered. | 5 |
| 1627301143033401349 | For anyone interested in learning more, here are three different conversations I’ve had with @gaelicplayers on problem gambling in GAA. Niall McNamee: https://t.co/7qu1NeFIdIConn Kilpatrick: https://t.co/S49g7xnFQlOisin McConville: https://t.co/hRpKlvHvwN | 5 |
| 1626358759877447680 | Another brilliant episode of @Laochra_Gael on @SportTG4 👏👏@TomParsons_8 was an excellent player, an exceptional fielder of the ball and he could score too. It was inspirational to see him return after that injury. A fantastic asset to the @gaelicplayers 🏐 https://t.co/VF4vgAVYAw | 3 |
| 1625187249343152152 | @AidanNugent12 @gaelicplayers If we threatened not to bother playing at the weekend they'd soon scramble to get the system up and going instead of citing 'technical updates with WebExpense system' @gaelicplayers need to be stronger on getting this sorted. Significant financial issues for students esp! | 3 |
| 1626343501163073536 | Great evening speaking with @FermanaghGAA senior footballers & management team - on what @gaelicplayers services are available to them.

| 1626951046726660101 | When #GAACongress was informed that reference to ‘he’ in the #GAA rulebook, also meant ‘she’, it was good to see Marie Kinsella @gaelicplayers & @Carlow_GAA & @Tracey_Cork say this wsn’t good enough. Now rulebook will rectify issue. #Equality 👏👏 https://t.co/a7fmpOc7Ii | 24 |
