Tyrone were poor against mayo but there was only a point in it. Mickey is still the man for the job. the system has not let us down, the forwards and freetakers have. We aren't that far away
I'd agree Tyrone aren't that far away. If Tyrone had a McManus or O'Connor for hitting frees alone they'd have won an AI in the last 2 years. Surely that has to be remedied this season. Harte to take them on the right and someone else on the left, what about Matty Donnelly? He's seriously accurate from play from distance. Morgan shouldn't be let near a free ever again

are we all forgetting what Mark Bradley done with his left for Killyclogher this year?

He was Canavanesque! Unfortunately many posters here don't bother with club football.

Sean Cav should be hitting the frees from the left. He should be stood in at FF on the peno spot and not allowed to come out further than the 45 looking for the ball, and he should be flanked by 2 mobile sharpshooters inside. 3 man FF line. End of.

Cavanagh took frees all through 2013 on the left, he wasn't the answer then and isn't now. We have exhausted all our free taking options I feel - we just don't have a reliable one from distance. We have to overcome that, as was pointed out here before, Peter Harte hit a point against Mayo after taking a quick free gathering the return and pointing it. We don't always have to shoot and force it when players aren't in their range.

As for Cavanagh playing in on the square, it's not his game. He gets frustrated in there and is more effective out the field - we wouldn't have beaten Donegal this year if Cavanagh remained on the edge of the square. I understand there's a need for a big target man in order for us to be able change up our pay but Cavanagh is not that man. He has lined out there for us plenty of times since 2008 and hasn't really been a success.

If mchugh from aygharn not a free taker.we could nearly carry a player if it meant we had an accurate free taker on from the right. Anybody see him play.

I'd give Niall Morgan another go this year. He never misses by much, the ball agonisingly glides wide as it has too much air. Serious specialist kicking coaching can sort that - Dave Alred was in Garvaghy few weeks back.

Dropped of the Under 21 panel very early last year on merit for not being good enough, kicked a lot for Aghayarn but couldn't believe he got a senior call up, nowhere next or near good enough for the county seniors. Cant see him being around for long after the McKenna cup.

Guess that answers my earlier question on Justy.

That's a very attack minded side.

Who do we think has the best chance of the new lads of making it? I would say Cassidy probably looks like the best fit with the type of player Harte likes. Mullan would be a natural defender which I don't think we have too many of in the squad, he went off injured against Armagh so that could damage his chances.

Can we use a different ball with less air?

Just back from Cavan, we were 2nd best all over the park. The new boys were given the opportunity and looked poor. We look to have picked up 2 possible long term injuries with R.Brennan and McAilskey. A poor red card both stupidity and poor refereeing combined. Our inside forward line was appalling pity Mark Bradley is with UUJ. Morgan again didn't cover himself in glory. McCullagh won't make the cut.

If I was looking hard to find any positives it is that it's only January and our 1st game out. We still can call on the Cavanaghs, McCarron and McNamee.  T.McCann a was out best player on show today, McClure worked hard but shots were awful either dropping short or wide, but still worth another shot.
Living the dream!!!

Mikhailov

McAliskey badly injured - possible cruciate I hear.

Unfortunate if true, good player who will be missed by county but more importantly clonoe!

HalfBack7

I don't know what was worse today.
Tyrone's performance or the clueless referee trying to apply the new mark rule.
