Agree - scored a goal in every game. Come on! Scored 1-08 in TWO games.. shoe-in. Thankfully we included him right on the square in our team.

As much as I love Paddy Bradley, and as fantastic it is to see him back, I don't think he was one of the three best full forwards by any stretch. He's still very rusty. And Gilligan and O'Boyle in the full forward line for Derry were better.

A lot of Quigley's were free kicks and Fermanagh were hammered in the semis..

Big Paddy was getting back to himself again and scored a goal on his return and young O Boyle is some player

John Devine (Tyrone) Few big saves early in Section A games, even though Pascal pulled out a few amazing stops later on

PJ Quinn (Tyrone)
Liam Morrow (Derry)
Aidan McCrory (Tyrone)

Conor Quigley (Fermanagh)
Peter Harte (Tyrone)
Neil Forrester (Derry) made big impact around half back area against Down - one to watch

Colm Cavanagh (Tyrone)
Mickey Murphy (Tyrone) notched up plenty of scores

Mark Donnellly (Tyrone)
Owen Mulligan (Tyrone)
Conlith Gilligan (Derry)

Paddy Bradley (Derry)
Stephen O'Neill (Tyrone)
Seamus Quigley (Fermanagh) Wasn't going to risk him the full 70, until I realised its a fictional team


Tyrone bias of course, but ....

haha - well sure you'll have Ronan O'Neill to come in and replace Quiqley when that belly gets the best of him!

Tyrone biased so I'm surprised you left out McCarron and Carlin
But I definitely don't think Cavanagh should be in there ahead of Cavan's Gearóid McKierney.
I had Michael Murphy in as well and delighted to see my clubmate Forester getting recognition outside the county - can have a big part to play this year.

Mark Lynch was outstanding throughout the whole tournament so I'd include him anywhere in the forward line all day long

But I can't believe that Sean Leo McGoldrick has been overlooked in these team. Genuinely think he is one of the most under players in the country.

Diarmuid McNulty of Jordanstown and Tyrone was also one of the first down on our list http://bit.ly/vZF2iR

Obvious Tyrone bias plus I watched them more. Can only judge Derry on what I seen in semi and final. Mark Lynch has a good half hour in final but I wouldn't have included Sean Leo. Colm Cavanagh has been Tyrone's most consistent in form player in McKenna Cup.

:o how in Gods name do you come to that conclusion, his ball giving away ability on saturday night contributed significantly to Derrys poor second half. Brennan certainly thought that too.
