Quote from: Goals_Will_Come on February 09, 2024, 12:13:09 PMAn 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.

Quote from: Armagh18 on March 21, 2024, 09:24:54 AMYou'd imagine the Omagh boys wouldn't have been in the best of nick of this one after the weekend? Is there many on the panel?
3 of them at the minute. Callum Daly, Ruairi McCullagh and Liam Og Mossey. Probably couldn't rule Charlie Donnelly, Eoin Donaghy or Nathan Farry getting called back up.

Hogan Cup hero Callum Daly completes Tyrone comeback to reel in defending champions Down
Red Hands come from six behind as Mournemen U20s remain winless after two games

EirGrid Ulster U20 Football Championship Section A: Tyrone 0-11 Down 1-8
DEFENDING champions Down are still without a win in the current Ulster U20 Championship campaign after Tyrone came from six points behind to earn a draw at the Dub last night.

Hogan Cup winning captain Callum Daly came off the bench to grab a stoppage-time leveller for the Red Hands as they finally found a way to break down a packed defence.

Down dropped 15 men into their own half, repeatedly thwarting their opponents throughout the first half, and picking off scores on the breakaway.

Dara Mussen and Jamie Doran registered the only points of a low-scoring opening quarter, as the Mournemen led by 0-2 to 0-1, before Oisin Gormley finally got Tyrone off the mark in the 17th minute.

Doran was on target with his second long-range free, and with Ronan Kelly and Tom McCarroll leading the Down charge with their strong running, they continued to raid from deep.

With composure in possession, they crafted another score through Senan Carr, and despite losing full-back David Ruddy to a black card, grabbed a goal with another swift breakaway, finished on 26 minutes by Donal Scullion, to lead by 1-4 to 0-2 at the break.

The Red Hands closed the gap through Ronan Cassidy and Conor Owens (2), but remained vulnerable on the break, with Luke Quinn racing clear for another Down score.

But their six-point lead had been trimmed back to two by the end of the third quarter, and Cormac Devlin made it a one-point game.

Doran kept the Mourne side in front, but late points from Conor Owens and Daly tied it up, though Tyrone will reflect on their wides count of 17, against Down's sole miss.

Tyrone squandered some amount of chances to finish level at FT
Result and performance would be concerning considering the amount of talent at their disposal, particularly forward talent.

Quote from: God14 on March 13, 2024, 10:58:05 AMDidnt realise that Ben Cullen was still eligible to play for the U20s this year. Article in IN today. Thats incredible progress, as he didnt feature for the minors in the 2021 u17 final

I do feel however that those players eligble for underage sides, should play with their own age group first and then hook up with the seniors second - a la Ruairi Canavan last year. In the past we've always been very clear as a county on this - i dont recall another player who essentially skipped a year at u20 or u21 to go straight to senior.
Conor Clarke went from Minor to the Senior Squad before playing any U21 football.

Tyrone favorites for Ulster and All Ireland? Still survivors from 2022 team and rest made up of the recent school successes. The new format should also suit them as they can't be caught out on the first day out.

Quote from: superstar_ on March 06, 2024, 11:21:46 AMPlans being put in place to split the Division 3 league into two tiers. Junior Championship will remain the same. Unclear yet the format that the league will take but probably looking top tier of 8 and bottom tier of 9 with Home and Away fixtures.
I see potential in this change. Junior has the biggest gap between top and bottom and might allow some of the teams currently struggling a chance to start building again with more competitive games against those around them rather than taking drubbings from Strabane, Aghaloo, Glenelly, Killeeshil et al. and help with bringing youngsters through and establish themselves in competitive games rather than 20+ hammerings and pushing them towards other sports.
Also creates an opportunity for more thirds teams to enter and have more teams in Junior. In time this could lead to the Junior league expanding and potentially two groups of 10 with the bottom group made up with more thirds teams and this would make this more appealing to your Omaghs, Dromores, Carrickmores, Coalislands for entering a thirds team if it was at that level against other thirds teams.

More appealing to players yes, but i cant see senior managements been too keen. Was this not an issue before whereby senior / reserve footballers were opting for the more recreational "thirds" team football and therefore hindering the senior panel?
I still insist the current 3 divisions split across 4 divisions would work better. Even introduce a 5th if needs be for more "thirds" teams if they wish to enter. There is an equal gulf in difference in division 3 teams as there is between top half division 1 and bottom half division 1/top half division 2.
The so called "bigger" clubs dont like this idea as they are afraid they may loss their senior status, but if we still maintain 16 teams at senior championship level, then all they have to do is finish within top 16 teams of 1A/1B league to ensure qualification.
There is not as big a gap between Trillick, Errigal, Dungannon and Dromore to Coalisland, Donaghmore, Galbally, Eglish, Clonoe, Pomeroy, Moy as there is from Killeeshil, Strabane, Aghaloo to Killyman, Brockagh and Brackaville. Division 3 is littered with 20+ point wins, you don't see that in Senior and very rarely in Intermediate.

Quote from: Truthsayer on February 20, 2024, 01:38:52 PMOk joke has worn bit thin... issue is, is there any point being on a county bench if you're not going to get a minute of game time?

I would agree that Tiarnan would be worth a gamble when chasing the game, he has that maverick quality about him but ultimately the percentage shot safety first Inter County game doesn't lend itself to this sort of behavior anymore.

Quote from: Truthsayer on February 20, 2024, 01:38:52 PMNot much point in Tiarnan Quinn being in the match day panels if he can't get five minutes football. If he's not up to that level let's find out and he can go back to his club. All that flaffing about the last few minutes players afraid to have a shot for a point he would at least have had a go...
Welcome to the board, Tiarnan
::)  you're bit late that comment was made earlier. I'm def not Tiarnan Quinn!   :)
Welcome to the board Cathaoir Quinn, will Coalisland stay up this year?

Quote from: Wildweasel74 on February 20, 2024, 08:10:37 PMG the arrogrance of just dismissing Donegal and Monaghan out of hand,
You would have to fancy the Semi Final to be Tyrone and Derry. In an Ulster championship game you would expect Derry to account for Donegal and Tyrone to account for either of Monaghan or Cavan.
