Mind boggles. He was shocking in their game v Galway.

How is Conor Lane still reffing at this level? His games are virtually a different sport to most decent referees and that is not a compliment

Was going to say I think the loser of Armagh v Kerry may be in serious danger of relegation given the other fixtures but that appointment can change that to Armagh I fear may be in serious bother after this match.

We may be in bother. However, Armagh have played rightly at home and it is up to us to beat Derry in the last game. If Armagh did manage an unlikely victory in Tralee, then Kerry would have a hard away assignment against Galway.

Even beating Derry may not be enough depending on other results. Albeit Tyrone would need to pick up 4 points and other results would need to go against Armagh. It's still extremely tight.

A lot going to depend on how motivated the likes of Donegal and Galway are to win their last 2 games.
That's just, like your opinion man.

If Armagh beat Derry and Tyrone get 4 points then we would be equal and we stay up on the head to head.
Unless someone else like Mayo ended up on the same points, but we have a better score difference than Mayo now.

Would expect Galway will be aiming to win the league before their trip to New York, a game they'll be able to rest players in.

Donegal I won't be surprised if they line out with a 2nd string team against Mayo in round 7.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Would love to see Donegal get there and then send out a B team, would maybe wake up the GAA into moving the games to avoid this situation in future.

Just an example scenario.

Tyrone beat Donegal and Dublin and end on 7

Armagh lose to Kerry but beat Derry Armagh end on 7.

Armagh are fine unless Dublin draw with Galway or Mayo win only one of their last two games (or draw both)or Kerry draw with Galway or some combination of those in which case it comes down to score difference which Armagh whilst in a relatively healthy place now may not be in the above scenario.

I agree about Derry but I could see Donegal effectively downing tools. If they do Tyrone should beat them which might mean Tyrone v Dublin could be a relegation decider. So no real mad results needed.

Sure it happened a few years ago when Mayo got to the final and played Championship the following week. Did it wake up the gaa ? Did it fcuk . It makes a complete mockery of the competition.

What sort of team did Mayo out out then?

Should just send out the u20's.

Or better yet go full Dromintee and send out owl lads in jeans.

Think a team on 7 points could go down

Armagh18

Hopefully Jimmy does us a favour and puts out a strong team against Tyrone.

Could see Armagh, Tyrone and Mayo all end up on 7 points. Does it go to a mini league with results between the 3 or points difference?

Points difference, head-to-head and if still same paper-scissors-stone.

It's overall points difference isn't it. Not just from the games between tied teams? Seems very unfair when changing rules mid competition that may impact scoring opportunities but hey Ho
