Can anyone remember a worse hammering? That Kerry match was a 16 point defeat.

Things can only get bettr

Dublin, full strength - are you having a laugh? 

Missing the following;

Cluxton
Davy Byrne
Michael Fitzsimmons
James McCarthy
John Small
Lee Gannon
Paddy Small
Cormac Costello
Paul Mannion

Everyone of the above started last years All Ireland final

Yeah Dublin at full strength apart from Cluxton, Fitzsimons, John Small, Gannon, McCarthy, Paddy Small, Costello, McCaffrey, Bulger and Mannion only got the last 20 minutes.

Apart from Morgan and a bit of credit for R Canavan for plugging away despite hitting a right few wides, no one came out of that looking well today. A few probably played their last bit of football for the year for Tyrone.

A reality check today. Great learning for the young lads. However we have better lads not playing for dooher than playing for him.

The experienced heads that dropped off the panel have been missed massively over the last couple of years.

The lads can either give up or learn from this and raise their level over the years to come

[BennyHarp]

I read earlier that this was the first time Tyrone have lost a match by over 20 points since 1950. That's a pretty damning stat. There can be no excuses for that performance at this level.

there is no learning in a stuffing like that other then the psychological superiority grip the opposition have over you.

Absolute shambles yesterday, i think we all expected to lose as it was a fairly nothing game for us, and some lads on the bench deserved minutes... but the manner of  the defeat is hard to stomach

In reality, Dublin have a resource pool so much greater than ours that they can deal with 7 or 8 established men missing so much better than we can.

I understand our management decided not to ask any player back onto the panel, whom had previously walked away. Hopefully they will find the humility to pick up the phone to the likes of Rory Brennan, Peter Teague, Mark Bradley. We need an injection of experience and quality now. The likes of Meyler, Burns etc will not get back up to the pace of the game between now and season end so we are simply too far stretched

The defending for some of the goals yesterday beggers belief. You would have to question whats going on in Garvaghy.

For training alone surely some more experience is required. Tiernan McCann, Paul Donaghy, Padraig McNulty would all offer something as well to the younger lads but old ground at this stage. The half forward line back all needs serious work to avoid hammerings later in the year like Kerry last year.

Bit unfair on the likes of McGarrity, Cush, McCarron to throw them into the deep end like that and expect them to perform? We were always going to be up against it in fairness with a Dublin team gunning for a league final.

[Goals_Will_Come]

An Ulster University side backboned by Tyrone players have qualified for the Sigerson Cup final with a 1-13 to 0-11 victory over Maynooth tonight. Darragh and Ruairi Canavan, Ciaran Daly, Conor Cush, Peter Og McCartan, Oisin McCann and Steve Donaghy started for Ulster University while Dara Curran, Adam Donaghy, Eoin Montgomery, James Quinn, Harry Morgan and second-half sub Danny Fullerton were named on the bench.

Oisin McCann for me stood out. Surely worth a go on the County panel, has the physical size and is full of talent. If he got a run with the county I think he would turn into a top player.
I remain unconvinced by Conor Cush, I am not sure if he is cut out for the top level.

Best thing for Conor Cush would be to release him back and let him have a full season with Donaghmore. Was fast tracked too soon after the 2022 U20 win, has done him no favours longer term. Good season with his club would surely help.
Nathan McCarron another who would probably benefit from being released back to his club, two games this year and hooked at half time in both. Wouldn't be good for confidence.

Normally I would disagree on this and tell players to stick it out at county squad level and wait on your opportunity.
However, Cush from what I am told missed all of last year club season due to a foot injury (only played 2/3 games)so maybe it is best to go back to the club in his case as he needs as much football as he can get.
As someone stated earlier, it was a baptism of fire for the 3 new younger lads starting yesterday but this is the level they are at now
Yesterday must have been devastating if you were playing in our defence up against a rampant Dublin team.
Will be interesting to see how Derry cope next weekend

Having watched every Tyrone game this year i can't say i have been overly impressed by any of their new finds. Honestly.
In saying that, they haven't done poorly or bad, but just much of the same of what already is/has been there before. I don't see any real game changers there or someone to grab the game by the scruff of the neck. Seanie O'Donnell probably the stand out for his work rate alone

BUMP!!!!

Who is Tyrone minor manager this year ?
