What are Knocknaheeny Rules?

Episode two of The Young Offenders hit Irish screens last night and as per usual had people in stitches.

The second season of the Cork-based program is proving just as popular as the first with plenty of hilarious moments.

It is particularly funny for Rebels who get many of the references in the show that those outside the county might not understand.

One of those such references was the 'Knocknaheeny rules' mentioned during the fight scene between Conor and Gavin.

Both young lads were about to go for a good old fashioned dust-up when a referee of sorts said they would be fighting under Knocknaheeny rules.

What are Knocknaheeny rules you ask? Well we were told there is only one, if someone dies - no one says who did it.

And it certainly went down well with Cork folk, Paul Ennis said: "Just watching Young Offenders and I laughed when they mentioned Knocknaheeny. You know Boi."

URLofCork added: "Knocknaheeny rules like Queensbury rules but with added knees and groin kicks."
