[Too young]

It's a bit hard to miss.

Where you around to see it on TV?

Too young

Are you mad interested in it or couldn't give a shite?

Yea find it very interesting.

Did they even go to the moon at all?

Yes, course they did. I'm not an idiot.

What's your thoughts on it?

Massive technological achievement.

Hmm...bad feeling about this....never like playing Cork and memories of 2009 keep rattling round in my head.

Everything went wrong that day. Everything. Unlikely to happen again.

How did he take an 8 at the first?

1st shot went out of bounds and then missed a 6foot putt.

He's a cod, Bill.

Oh Rory.

Rory, Rory, Rory...

"Duck" from Owen Roes is a character I'd say.

[Cork by 1]

Tyrone +8
Dublin + 11
Meath +2
Kerry +2

Cork by 1. Dublin by 5. Mayo by 1. Kerry by 6.

Ah here.

Morning!

Hope you're all well!

Am an Englishman enjoying the coverage on Sky - just wondering about the following:

"In general, when are a team satisfied with scoring a point from an attack, and when will they be disappointed that they haven't scored a goal?"

Any light shed would be gratefully received ...

First things first, welcome to the board and the sport itself.

IMO, If you're through one on one with the goalkeeper and it goes over the bar, you'd be disappointed, unless it's very late in the game and you're either 1 or 3 points ahead. Idea being a point could put you at least 2 scores ahead and the opposition probably won't have time to get them.

A point is always good if theres a defender between the attacker and the goal, especially if you're outside the 21m line.

As an outsider how have you found the game to watch out of curiosity?

Des comes across as s really nice man but he's not fit to control a panel the way Joanne is.

hard te beat playing games. I'm sure if you asked the players they'd want them coming thick and fast with light training rather than a long gap and having to dog themsevles in training.

They'll have played 8 games in 10 weeks and they look as sharp and as healthy as I remember seeing this group. Usual story about teams playing week in and week out. If they win it's down to having match practice and momentum, if they lose it's because they're burned out.

Get this game out of the way and you can be sure Mickey won't be resting anyone for it. If we can win this then we're in the Super8 providing the Dubs beat the Rossies regardless of what happens after. Then there's a 2 week break to the final Super8 game which will be a dead rubber. Honestly can't see any advantage in coming first or second in this group. Likelyhood right now is Donegal and Kerry in the Semi's and I couldn't pick which of those would be better suited to Tyrone but personally I'd prefer to test ourselves against Kerry if we get to that point.

Are semi final the week after last round of group games? Was unfair on likes of Galway last year

They are indeed, so as to allow a 3 week build-up to the final

Tyrone currently sitting on 155 scored for the summer. 8:131. Need another 66 points to get the all time record. It wont last long even if we do get it but would be nice for a defensive team to hold that 

That's extremely doable.

Looks like Tyrone are back to their brilliant, boring best.

A win against a provincial champion infront of a highly charged partisan crowd. Sure what's not to love.

Wonder who'll cover the damage to cars then outside McAleers last night.

U-20s? What went on?

Great analysis again on the Sunday game. I'm sure everyone is much more enlightened on Tyrone's tactics after that diagram by Thomas O'Se. Also "over emotion" was the reason Roscommon lost. Something for them to work on.

I laughed at Brolly adding up the potential chances and scores that could have won Roscommon the game yet he didn't factor in the same chances that Tyrone had. Tube.

Peter Harte hit the underside of the bar, mcshane nearly nutmegged the keeper...

Imagine for a second if that was McCann who did what Smith did there. Imagine the social media outrage.

It's the exact same as the cavan player who punched meyler in the jaw, it's all forgotten about as it wasn't a Tyrone player doing it. Best just to keep these clips until some stupid person questions a potential foul by a Tyrone player then post it.

Any natural can clearly see what has been going on the last 2 weeks against Tyrone. Its clear that there will be more "missed"incidents against tyrone players in the next few weeks

The Sunday game did a piece on Roscommons persistent fouling and all Brolly could really say was "these Tyrone boys are looking for it".
