@Irishref1985 (I don't know if tagging people works on here

Would be interested in how you view the Irish FIFA refs.
Hennessey seems to be the one whom UEFA are most interested in - I watched him in a domestic game a couple of years ago, it was a big derby (perhaps sth like Shamrock - Sligo?) and very little happened to be honest. However, his performance in Belarus - Estonia WCQ this March was honestly a refereeing disaster with a doubtful penalty, SYC, and huge management issues. Perhaps you know how the performance was assessed by UEFA?
I saw Harvey handle an ELQ game in Bulgaria, where IIRC he gave the ultimately-upset home team a penalty, but then missed another one after that. He looked solid but seemed to have the classic British (Isles) problems in international games - not able to increase one's presence when the match becomes more challenging.
Damien MacGraith must be the same AR who was at Collum's side for a few years who is now in the middle, right?
Well in my opinion Neil Doyle is still the best FIFA referee.
Hennessey I would rate above Harvey. Harvey I think has a lot of issues in management and giving a good impression on the pitch in terms of body language and personality. I would be interested to see Hennessey's WCQ game if you have any clips?
And yes that is the same Damien MacGraith.
