Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Cavan getting plenty of joy from kicking long ball inside, they might regret that missed goal chance before half time. You wonder if they can maintain that pace but it's one of the best games I've watched in a while.

Cavan much more up for it, but you'd wonder if they keep up that intensity for the 70+ minutes. If they can, then this will probably go to the wire.

Donegal getting turned over an awful lot and are making some poor mistakes like the overcarrying, but you do get the sense they can up the gears more than Cavan. Not a given that they can just switch it on like that, so they'll need to get a bit sharper and tighten up in defence a bit - Cavan are getting alot of joy by kicking the ball in quick.

Canavan remembers Conor Lane flashed a red card for exactly the same type of foul on McBrearty years ago agin Tyrone, "no consistency"  he says.
Tyrone grudges are timeless.

Caolan Mooney got sent off against armagh 3 years for the same thing shoulder into the jaw when trying to shoulder someone

Pat Spillane basically advocating that every tackle is a guilty tackle.

Maybe we should get rid of all defenders and just have a free taking contest.

Lol, no thought at all that refs review their performances and try to learn. So Canavan thinks that the tyrone red was incorrect and he then expects Lane to continue making that incorrect decision and not to learn from it. Pathetic punditry.

Donegal showing there the reason we need something like basketball when ya get in to the opponents half you can't go back, so bad to watch them turn and actually run back towards their own goals

Jesus what a fortunate goal for Donegal, you'd feel for Cavan but Galligan should have been clearing that ball away out if he was going to go up for it.

Donegal will see this out now straightforward enough you'd imagine. Huge blow for Cavan as Donegal were there for the taking today if Cavan were able to push on a bit more towards the end.

Game fizzled out and went flat the second half. It's ironic that Donegal scored both goals from long hopeful miskicked balls into the square.

Good game though. Cavan were impressive and should do well in the Tailteann Cup. Donegal got a fright in the first half but they are so consistent.
