Think tyrone will struggle over the next few years. Need to do some rebuilding with some of the senior members naturally stepping away in the next year or so. Need a big year from mcshane next year if there is any hope of staying competitive.

Very tragic and it can happen to anyone. However its the actions or in this case the lack of actions which is the issue. Leaving someone out there for 15 mins and then dragging them in without any kind of assistance is the big issue along with lying to the police at the initial stage.

Anyone know what actually happened. There were enough one punch kill incidents in tyrone over the last number of years to know that it's only a matter of time before someone is killed at a gaa game.
Been at a few Moy games including some of the junior games and have always found there coaches very quick to shout about minor issues. It doesn't excuse what happened which is very serious.

« on: October 04, 2022, 03:59:37 PM »I’m glad I saw Italy (Rome, Florence, sorrento) but I wouldn’t care if I never went back to Italy. Other countries in Europe are cleaner, more hospitable and cheaper IMO. Their transport is absolutely awful apart from their high speed trains which are excellent.
Not the friendliest hosts either.
The amalfi coast has some stunning views but has to be one of the most overrated places ever. Very glad I stayed in sorrento and not positano / amalfi/ ravello, very small places full of influencers / posers and not a whole pile to do
What was sorrento like. Heading there next year

« on: September 02, 2022, 01:58:32 PM »McKenna gone. McShane struggling for form. M Donnelly best years behind him. No Bradley, no Brennan, no Donaghy, no O'Neill.
You have to be honest and say it will take one hell of a job by Logan and Dooher to keep Tyrone in Division one next year.
Dooher and logan need some time to rebuild. 2021 was not consistent with where we actually are. Few of the established players are in the final years of their career and it will take time for new players to put their mark.
Too much being put into brennan, o'neill and Bradley leaving. All 3 of them hardly played in 2021 and even in 2020 they didn't feature much.
Bring in a few of the u21 and let them get some game time.
If we stay in Division 1 next year and reach a ulster final I would say it would be a success.

Big year for him. Needs to deliver on his promise.
What is this promise? Came back after a horrific injury that he was lucky to get back playing at any level to score a goal in the semi and final in last years great year. Struggled for form this year but we could say that about 80% of team. Tyrone fans are getting more and more fickle when it comes to players - mickey O’Neill, McKenna, McShane to name a few!
McShane got a huge package to stay. The injury was 2 years ago. 2021 we saw glimpses. 2022 was non existance same for alot of player Let's put it simply he needs to warrant that package.
I don't believe it's fickle at all. Some players got a lot handed to them and tyrone bent over backwards to help them. You either are fully committed or not at all in my opinion.
What makes your think he is not fully committed?
Is the fact that he has returned from a serious injury to get an All Star nomination, score in an AI semi final and final, not a good indicator of his commitment?
His commitment can't be questioned.
The commitment comment wasn't aimed at mcshane. It was more of a general statement for all players. Either commit fully or not at all. Same goes for players walking away mid season.

Tyrone / Re: Tyrone County Football and Hurling
« on: August 29, 2022, 09:28:01 AM »McKenna back to Oz.
Seems like he hasnt a clue what he wants. Spent years in afl complaining about being home sick now he wants to go back. He never was committed to tyrone so better off in the long run without him
Harsh, he was only a child when he first went to oz. Probably always felt like he was missing out back home, now that he has had 2 years he has realised that he enjoyed oz better and the opportunity is still there for him so why not.
Wouldn't say its harsh at all. Always talking in the media about how he didn't like oz while still under contract. Came home then started talking about how horses is his passion and gaelic football isn't.
He must be about 26-27now, time to pick something and stick with it.
Would bet on it after a few years back in oz he will be in the media again saying he doesn't like it.
I’d say he’ll take your advice on board alright.
I get it’s a discussion board but jeez there’s some bitter men on here. It’s his life he’ll do what he wants. And no I don’t know the lad from Adam. He owes nobody anything. His passes at key times during our 2021 AI win were pivotal to Tyrone being crowned champions for a 4th time.
It's a discussion board. Not giving him any advice. Just pointing out the facts that he never seems settled in either oz or here. Its a fact that he was always complaining about either being in oz or at home.
No one is saying a bad word about the lad. Think you are being a bit sensitive.
Was crucial in winning the AI in 2021 but never was fully committed.
Good luck to him in the future but as I said I won't be suprised to hear him back again in a few years.

« on: August 29, 2022, 08:17:44 AM »Yet another player walks away from Logan and Dooher though.
From team talk belowQuoteIt is certainly not the news that all involved with Tyrone GAA want to hear and it’s another forward who will depart from that all conquering 2021 squad. Paul Donaghy, Lee Brennan, Ronan O’Neill and Mark Bradley all departed prior to the start of this season and ironically they are the four leading marksmen at the moment in a very competitive Division One within the County.
Paul Donaghy had a fair amount of chances. Had one great game at the start then never really kicked on. Ronan has had more than enough chances under mickey harte. Lee while very skillful doesn't have what it takes at County level.
Mark Bradley is the only one I would take back out of all of them.
