Great draw for both teams.
Home advantage for Cavan should make this a real 50/50 match up (or is it in Clones??).
Being away form Omagh won't hurt Tyrone either I would say.
For whoever wins this will be perfect preparation for a crack at one of the beaten Provincial finalists.
No point in having walkovers at this stage....

Nope.
Great draw for Tyrone and the one draw Cavan didn't want. They haven't beaten Tyrone in the championship since the 80s?
This will be hard fought but I can't see anything other than a Tyrone win by 4-6 points. Would have went for a two point win but Cavan are already down two very important men to red cards and possibly more on the way if the suits look into that melee further.
We usually wrap up big McKiernan quite well and no Givney to cause headaches in the FF line. Out of interest, where is he these days?
Weather should still be hot by the weekend and hoping for a good match to boot.
Lads, I'm assuming this can't be a home game for Cavan?

If I was a Cavan man and the game had to be played in a neutral venue, I'd rather play it in a neutral venue where we had won the week before.
I believe Cavan have designated Clones as a home venue when they told HQ that Breffni was out of bounds. If I were them Id be looking for Brewster. That said we have no chance the way Mattie is setting us up. Hard to even get motivated to attend this game such was the pure shit served up on Saturday

There's certain posters on the Tyrone pages that have been calling for Mattie to take over the Tyrone job as he will bring a more expansive style of football.

Nope, thats a load of bollix. Im surprised to have a Tyrone man ape a Derry man like Brolly. Hyland had cavan playing a great brand of football with a good mix of defensive play and attacking play. What we have now under Mattie is change mid stream and players who just stand around inside their own 45, dont lay a hand on the opposition and when they get the ball walk it up the field as slowly as possible. Its worse than anything Hyland did in his 1st year when he was trying to introduce the idea of defending to Cavan. Tyrone will run riot if we play like this.
Cavan always seem to draw the short straw.
I actually told my Cavan pals to expect Armagh in the draw - not thinking it could be worse!!!!
Why the pitch in Breffni is being relaid now astonishes me. Could this not have been done in the spring and have 'home' League matches in Clones?
As for the clowns getting red cards after the full time whistle................that bates Banagher altogether.
T'rone to win by whatever they want.
brolly is a football man, the fact that he is from derry is irrelevant. and yeah tyrone will prob run riot, because they have better footballers.

Well this is shite. Cavan played better football in 2016 under Terry than we have shown under Mattie. People just listened to the muck Brolly spouted.
Saturday's attempt at tactics was the worst i have ever seen from a Cavan manager.
Tyrone will walk over Cavan because (a) They're a better side and (b) we don't have a manager capable of getting a performance out of the players at his disposal to beat a better side.
Mattie should be ran from Cavan ASAP. I wouldn't even wish him Tyrone.

Ah - well, I won't say much more as Pearse Park is hardly a shining light when it comes to stadium management!!
Perhaps Cavan could drag the Tyronies to Longford - grand park now there with plenty of seating.

Is there any chance Tyrone will refuse to turn up like Kildare? That would be a help. Mind you we would probably just stay inside our own 45 for the whole game anyway.
Anybody fancy two tickets to the double-header on Saturday? My wife and I are season ticket holders and we're at a graduation and can't go >:( I would be able to email you the PDF of the tickets. Not asking any money for these by the way. Free to the first Tyrone fan (or Cavan, if they wish) to ask for them.

It will be hard to top that one
Where's the 11+ page thread here lads? You realise this one has been moved too, and a fair bit further than the Kildare one has been...
Personally never complain about Tyrone games in croke park. Best stadium and facilities in the country. It's where the big games are all played so might as well get as many games in it as possible. If win next week would potentially have a round 4 qualifier and super 8 game there, no better preparation for them games than having a game there first.

Cavan were never going to get home advantage so I suppose they don't care. Tyrone well used to travelling to Croke park at this stage. The power that be will be lucky to have 10k watching this one in the stadium. That'll look well on Sky.
Is it better to win in early July and then get hammered than just to forget about it and focus on next year ?

There's plenty other venues in Ulster and between Cavan and Croker, don't see any fuss being kicked up here though
I'd say both sets of players are delighted it's in Croker as are both sets of managers. Only those who got will be suspended will be pissed off I'd say. What player does not love playing in Croker on a sunny Sat night.
Only ones that may whinge are those who will whinge at anything or complain about the cost of having to stay overnight in the city. Try airbnb folks as a cheap option.

Indeed they are. If you DM me your email address I'll send you them once I get them (probably Wednesday).
Kildare (rightly imo) playing hardball could put the brakes on this being played in Croker too. Would be awful having only this game on with maybe 10k people at it. Cavan should do the same and insist on the game being at Clones or Brewster.
As always I'm delighted to get to a Tyrone Cavan game as the wife is a Cavan woman and it's usually good craic in the build up to it. Fancy Tyrone by 4/5 points wherever it is played.

Apparently Cavan nominated Brewster then they were asked about a CP double header and they took that, if Kildare game doesn't go ahead in Croker I assume it'll be Brewster
Surely a game st Croker is what players want?
I'd say Tyone & Cavan both happy enough
Dublin is as easy got in and out of as Enniskillen or Clones.

Cavan want the game in Croke Park. Why would they say they want it in Brewster because Kildare want their game at home? Cavan could be fully supportive of Kildare, and are I'm sure, but still want our game in Croke Park.
Dumb and dumber. You couldn't make it up.
Will say a good few Cavan and Tyrone fans will stay at home in support of Kildare. Plenty of people who I talked with this afternoon agree with Kildare's stance.
I wouldn't have much desire to go to Croker to see a depleted Cavan team play a Tyrone that is slowly rebuilding the house (after the collapse last year) at this stage of the championship. The magic of this stage of the championship is the packed out smaller grounds getting coverage that they never get from cameras perched on dodgy scaffolding.
The teams themselves would probably love a run out in Croker but who's paying the bills?

The jaded, low-hanging fruit gags in the thread about Cavan people and money etc. might well be more entertaining than the football in this one.
I can't see what all the fuss is about.
Does the Ccc not call the shots and their word is final.
Back in the 2000s some of the Tyrone v Armagh first round games were moved to Clones because of H&S.
If a countys ground isn't suitable to host a game then it's moved. End of.
If Louth were playing Kerry, Dublin or mayo it would be moved.
It's just because Sky are involved that so many are jumping on that band wagon.
Is say offer Croker option to Clare v Armagh or Leitrim v Monaghan and all 4 would jump at the chance.
For most players it's a huge dream to play there on a sunny championship say.
Can you imagine Andorra telling UEFA we won't play outside our own country.

There wasnt much love for Cavan (or the GAA in general) from Kildare when they were coaxing a player from other counties to play for them, falsifying addresses and then making a mockery of the hurling championship in their own county. Not to mention a total disregard of the ethos of the GAA. So while I think Kildare are correct on this issue you will need to excuse me that I dont think our county should be standing in solitary with them in some big protest. Maybe Karma is a bitch?

Surely a game st Croker is what players want?
I'd say Tyone & Cavan both happy enough
Dublin is as easy got in and out of as Enniskillen or Clones.
It stinks, Tyrone and Cavan should back Kildare.
Now why would Tyrone or Cavan give a shite about Kildare.
Seriously ?
Croke Park allowed to ride roughshod over Kildare today,
Maybe your turn tomorrow.
Gotta love goodwill among gaels
There wasnt much love for Cavan (or the GAA in general) from Kildare when they were coaxing a player from other counties to play for them, falsifying addresses and then making a mockery of the hurling championship in their own county. Not to mention a total disregard of the ethos of the GAA. So while I think Kildare are correct on this issue you will need to excuse me that I dont think our county should be standing in solitary with them in some big protest. Maybe Karma is a bitch?
True but this is a bigger issue of how the GAA try to ride roughshod over counties and the influence of SKY TV ££££
Why blame Sky? This is the GAAs fault.

The jaded, low-hanging fruit gags in the thread about Cavan people and money etc. might well be more entertaining than the football in this one.
They're just cheap insults, if you ask me.

Is this game potentially going to move venues depending on what happens with Kildare? Or will it go ahead at CP regardless?

Word is Croker no matter what.
I've read somewhere that they are saying croker regardless but that won't ever happen if it's a stand alone fixture. There was 3k at the Cavan down game, Cavan would bring an absolute max of 5k to dublin

If we were going well and this was a double header I'd say we could bring upwards of 10. As it is, we're at the lowest point in the last 5 years or so in many supporters' view, everyone expects a hammering. I know a good few reasonably committed supporters who aren't travelling. I'd be surprised if more than 2k from Cavan go to Dublin on Saturday.
I was 100% going when the tie was announced and was having to reschedule other plans for it, then all the crap with the other game came up and I don't know if I will now. I'm not paying for a double header to only watch one match either out of pure principle.
I wish te feck the GAA would just back down, let Kildare play at home and move this to Clones or even better for me, Brewster. That way I could watch the match on the way to Belfast which was my original plans.

Yes, Mattie has him playing quarter back. He is class at it.
Is that half way between full back and half back or is it between half back and midfield?
I think I've been persuaded Kildare should stand firm and put the pressure on the GAA.
They probably know they're not gonna win anyway so they might as well get support for their stance of standing up to the buggers.
I liked their line yesterday where they said we just wanna play football and not interested in making money.

"Tickets unavailable"
Where will this be held now? Brewster? Tyrone should come out and say Croke Park or Nowhere. Really put the onions among the carrots.
There'll be no Cavan support so Croke Park would be ridiculous.

I'll be delighted of this is played in Brewster or Clones. Croke Park for this game on a sunny Saturday would be shite.

Wonder what happens to ticket prices - The ones already bought are priced for a double header - if they leave them the same price they are overcharging - if they reduce they owe whoever have bought money back.
What a mess - GAA have come out of this a laughing stock - people should be disciplined but that won't happen!
The gaa had to stick to the line that this was in croker regardless so as not to show a chink of light to Kildare but now that's done I'd expect this to be moved and moved today.
It makes damn all sense, opening Croker for a small crowd, but If they are going to insist on having it in Dublin, rather than changing to Brewster, they should at least consider Parnell Pk, so there might be some semblance of an atmosphere.
For selfish reasons, Dublin suits me grand, 'cause that's where I live. I've been up and down the country, becoming more and more annoyed with what I've been seeing, as the weeks went on. It hasn't been pretty lately, as most of the Cavan heads will testify to, so at least that way, I can wander over to the match and then go and sup pints all evening, without having to get in the car. I have enough bloody miles done for one year!

I believe Brewster was nominated originally but f**k it they should change their mind and request the Aran Islands.
An added bonus to all of this would be the spectacle of Cavan and Tyrone rattling around in front of a small crowd in Croke Park.
Just to ram home the point.
No disrespect to either county, but the penny needs to drop that fixtures other than the Leinster final, Super 8s, semi-finals and the final need to be kept well away from the place.
The stadium itself and the actual game is diminished by small attendances.
would there be 5000 in croke park? I assume both teams have made arrangements to go to Dublin........not too late to change though and HQ can pick up the tab.

Both games are still being shown
QuoteSky Sports will televise Cavan vs Tyrone and Kildare vs Mayo live and exclusively this Saturday.
The two games were set for Croke Park earlier this week. However, the GAA confirmed on Wednesday that Brewster Park, Enniskillen and St Conleth's Park, Newbridge will host the respective ties.
The association released a statement outlining the reasons for the original arrangement, and said that the concerns have been resolved.
"Following discussions with the Kildare County Committee and An Garda Síochána in recent days, upgraded match-day and traffic management plans involving extra stewarding and Gardaí will be put in place to cater for the large crowds expected at the venue before the game.
"The GAA wishes to point out that the decision by the CCCC to fix the game for Croke Park originally was based on serious concerns around the health and safety of patrons attending the fixture. The CCCC has received assurances that these issues will be adequately addressed.
"The GAA can also confirm that the meeting of Cavan and Tyrone will now take place at Brewster Park, Enniskillen."

The GAA have gone to hell. The prices they charge for an event in HQ is unreal. We had a function there last year and it was the Ryanair model of business. Everything you wanted was extra.
I'm expecting Morgan to be No 1 from here on in unless injured again.
Tiernan could be played in the half forward line and the man can shoot and can run all day.
I'd say Bradley and Lee will be rested again for tougher game. No disrespect Cavan.
Petey Harte reminded us what he's capable of last weekend with those jinking side stepping runs he did for the goal last week. I'd like to see McClure be given a run at MF and not keep changing all the time. Players need a bit of a run and belief that they won't always get pulled off if they're not at the top of their game.

I am more confident in Mickey oneill to be honest. Tiarnans fitness is questionable at the minute and since hes been back from injury has actually missed a few shots, more than what he has scored anyway. Maybe it could be best leaving him out of the squad? who do you drop? Meyler? his work rate would be one of highest although may not contribute the most? Petey done very well for the goal, didn't realise how good it was until I seen it on a facebook video.
Could I also please remind Tyrone people...

The Dublin demolition last year, Fermanagh knocking them out of Ulster and being very fortunate to get past Meath will do that.

Fermanagh? has that ever happened?
Here's one from July 3 years ago when we were last in the qualifiers.... 19 pages total
http://gaaboard.com/board/index.php?topic=25962.0
This years Meath match had 27 pages
or June..... grand total of 5 pages
http://gaaboard.com/board/index.php?topic=25876.0
So youd have to say based on your criteria Seafoid the expectation is up. For myself I can tell you that I expect us to cruise into the super8s and gain revenge on Dublin for last year's debacle on our way to our 4th Sam.
Still no tickets online. Do supervalu have them?

Will he be naming the team tonight?
You would imagine he'll find it hard to make any changes from the last day.
I'd say Richie D has done enough to keep the 14 jersey. McShane seems to be one of Harte's favourite sons and he does put in a good shift when he plays.
As usual we are wondering from game to game where to play Mattie. He scored a few good points v Carlow and earlier v Monaghan and so it's hard not to play him in the forward line somewhere for his shooting alone.
I think Colm is getting back to himself as well and as I had hoped these Sat night games are bringing a bit of team spirit and momentum.
You would expect us to win this handy enough but Cavan are certainly a step up from Carlow and Meath as they showed us 2 years ago when they got a draw.
I like the look of this Michael McKernan lad and these are the matches he needs to get experience in. Having Tiernan to come on could give us a good lift in tougher games, should we win.
Did someone say should we get in the back door that we will NOT be in Dublins group?
I'm just wondering IF we should make the super 8 what game will we have in Omagh?
I know, we still have a way to go yet (hopefully)
If ye bate Cavan, then Cork or Ros ye'll be in Dublin's group.

All depends on the Round 4 draw - whoever is drawn against Roscommon and Cork will go into the Dublin & Donegal group.
To avoid Dublin's group a team has to be drawn against either Laois or Fermanagh.

Jinxy, now that your own county are shite and you are following the breffni boys so closely I cordially invite you to join our bandwagon until such a time as Meath become better than shite again.

Had kids up at Garvaghey this evening at the play park and saw some of the senior training. Brennan and Bradley trained separately with Michael Harte so unlikely we'll see them on Saturday. They looked to be moving good though. Hopefully Back in action soon so long as the Breffni boys go easy on us.

Does nobody accept been send of these days!!
Where is the furore from the Tyrone men over these suspensions being overturned. At least with Armagh under 20s those who the referee red carded served a suspension - plus the member of management team. Obviously Stevie was right senior teams operate under different rules.
On saying that - best of luck Cavan on Saturday ;D

Cavan haven't beaten Tyrone in the championship since 1983.
When are Cavan going to win the psychological match ups?
Tyrone have definitely had better vintages.

Sure Cavan are so chronic they can't be bothered, it's almost like an apology for foisting Matty upon us God help us all. Even the normally effusive Tyrone posters can't be arsed writing anything either, save for the usual jaded Cavan jokes here and there of course, which only further feed the wearied sense of
ennui and inevitability about this game.
Tyrone will win the match in neutral, and may well reverse over the finish line with the handbrake on while Cavan spend 70 minutes inching around, trying to parallel park like Austin Powers.

Cavan didn't throw one box. Right to appeal. Didn't put one tackle in during game either.

A lot depends on the tactics. If Cavan set up as they did against Down then Tyrone will win this very easily indeed.
What team has the most gingers? Has to be a factor in this weather. Are you allowed a ginger sub?
How do most of ye rate Conal McCann?
Is he a very good club player?
Maybe bar the Derry game last year I cannot see anything that great about him. If he a good free taker?
Is he better than RoN or just a different position?
I hope McCarron has learn't from the way he got skinned last week for the Carlow goal. It was all too easy and happened right in front of us. I am a bit disappointed HP is not getting more of a look in. I wonder sometimes is ruthless Mickey sometimes a bit too loyal to those he has sympathy for re his life. I suppose McCarron did quite well in the second half last week. How old is he now?

Cian Mackey and Jason McLoughlin. McLoughlin started on the bench the last day. Mackey will need a cap.
Any baldies, they are at highest risk. Cavan removed all baldies from the panel this year.

Cavan will bring a small crowd. Down match was the last straw for many in terms of direction and it's also being televised.
Ruairi Sludden also pulled up during training hence him not being named on subs bench. Some situation to be in with two 'non full forwards' in FF line and only two forwards on the subs bench in RoN and Loughran. We really need Bradley and Brennan back in the fold.

Out of curiosity, why are Cavan so downbeat? They got promoted from Division 2 this year meaning that they will have played 2 out of 3 seasons in Division 1, and therefore have a legitimate claim to be one of the top 8 to 10 teams in the country. Surely Saturday is a massive opportunity for them, i saw a Cavan journalist on twitter say that if they were to beat Tyrone it would be their biggest championship victory since 1997. And if they were to progress they would fancy their chances against any of the provincial losers for a place in the Super 8s.
I would have thought all of the above represents good progress for a county with Cavans record over the last couple of decades. Ok they shipped a heavy enough defeat to Donegal but Donegal's performances since show that they are a strong outfit. Is the pessimism related to the style of football or are the supporters not happy with Mattie? From the outside looking in Cavan had been putting up good scores in the League and correct me if I'm wrong also but haven't a host of senior players dropped off the panel over the last year or two which makes Cavan's current standing even more impressive.
Again from the outside looking in, Cavans current plight seems to reflect a more general malaise in county football at the minute. As I said, Cavan could be seen to be punching above their weight and are arguably a top 10 team, yet there seems to be no buy in from their supporters. Ok they have no chance of winning an All Ireland so you could argue a second tier competition would benefit them and give them something proper to play for. Although I guarantee if this was suggested to the players or management they would have other ideas. It seems to be a strange one and I've no clue how it can be fixed to be honest

Lad, outside Dublin, Kerry and Mayo no one has a chance of winning the All Ireland.
Cavan fans are depressed with the way we set up the last day v Down and against Donegal. Its all over the place. Defenders standing around doing nothing, dropping our best forward. I could write an essay. There is no optimism but you know sometimes that's when we pull one out of the bag.
I was up at the league final Itchy and you had set up almost man for man that day. While not a good result it was a great entertaining game for a neutral (OK I have Cavan ties so was big time up for them). The problem that day seemed to be that your defenders are simply not good enough to mark man to man and after that I was completely unsurprised to hear you'd gone more defensive in the championship.
Donegal you can completely understand and while you certainly could have been more attacking against Down from what I've read it would make sense for a manager who's trying to look a game or two ahead to stick with the system he's intending to use. Surely no-one from Cavan would want you to go out against Tyrone man to man??

Yes this is what I was getting at. Appreciate I am looking in from the outside but Cavan seem to be an example of a team who are set up to maximise the ability of the players at their disposal and as a result they are punching slightly above their weight. Maybe Cavan people would say I am being unfair on the players they have in the county and that under another manager they would a competitive Division 1 side and competing for Ulster titles, but I can't see it.
I just think that given Cavans circumstances if their fans are disillusioned with the team at present then what are the 20 odd teams below them in the pecking order going to be like. And if that's the case then it paints a bleak picture for county football as a whole.
I just don't understand why Cavan aren't stronger and I'm really not trying to be patronising here.
They've the richest history and tradition in Ulster by a country mile.
Only 4 teams in Ireland have more provincial titles than them.
Only 5 teams have more allirelands than them.
Outside of Mayo I've never met people from a county who are more football mad, it's all anyone talks about and the club scene seems pretty decent.
They've no soccer team to compete with.
They had a really successful underage panel a few years ago that are all in their prime now.
Now they are relatively a small county with 76k population.
They're in a malaise for the last 20 years and longer.
According to the missus at least when she lived there a lot of country players were picked based on who they were and what club rather than ability.
It's just strange how a county can fall off a cliff like that, but in 20 years time they'll still be the most successful Ulster team ever.
Tyrone 3-14
Cavan 1-12

What happens happens regardless of what I think or post on here! ;D ;D
While I expect Tyrone to win by a few Cavan got a nice boost with the two lads coming back, playing in brewster should suit them too and they have nothing to lose as underdogs.
Cavan's last AI was 66 years ago.
How many Ulsters since? 5?
Emigration off small farms and no big towns so population losses, like most rural Counties.
Gaelic football improving by leaps and bounds in the 6Cos following the 1947 Education Act. Meant larger numbers of Catholics going to secondary schools. Increased no of teaching jobs too.
So Cavan people are thick then

After 1921 either Cavan, Monaghan or Donegal were going to make hay and clean up Anglo Celt titles. The occupied territories were in no state to get organised football wise and there was no support from the authorities.
This effect lasted until the end of the 50s.
Donegal were into fishing, working in Scotland or Soccer.
Only won their first Ulster in 1972 I believe.
The 6 Cos teams started taking over from 53 wasn't it?
Armagh, Tyrone,Derry and then the real thing Down all won Ulsters in the 1950s.

Yes. and they needed to do a few iterations before Down got there. I would love to have been in CP for the 1960 final.
I think Ros, Cavan and Mayo won all their Sams in a 20 year period - 33 to 52
That was a glorious era for BMW football
Cavan are infuriating. They have just been promoted to Division 1 . They have some very experienced players. Young fellas with a few ulster under 21s. Tyrone are mediocre. But they will still probably have bate Cavan even before the ball is thrown in. And it's 21 years since 97

Dont think that was it. It was complacency. Cavan didn't move with the times and were still playing kick and catch in the 80s losing to teams with lesser quality players. It was a slippery slope. By the way cavan were a force in the 60s and should have won an all Ireland or two. They dished out some by beatings to down when they were reigning all Ireland champs. Charlie Gallagher was one of Ireland best in the 60s.

mediocre lol???
How do you work that one out and by what standard? By Dublin's standard everyone is mediocre. By Everyone else's standard Tyrone are among the very best teams in the country.
We also have some very experienced players, we've players from both the 2006 and 2015 Ulster U21 winning panels, and the 2015 All-Ireland minor winners. We've players 4 Ulster minor winning teams and 2 All-Ireland minor winning teams. We've one player left with a Sr football All Ireland and 5 senior Ulster football championships.

Donegal were into fishing, working in Scotland or Soccer.
Only won their first Ulster in 1972 I believe.
The 6 Cos teams started taking over from 53 wasn't it?
Armagh, Tyrone,Derry and then the real thing Down all won Ulsters in the 1950s.
Yes. and they needed to do a few iterations before Down got there. I would love to have been in CP for the 1960 final.
I think Ros, Cavan and Mayo won all their Sams in a 20 year period - 33 to 52
That was a glorious era for BMW football
BMW football!!! That's a new one :D
Maybe we could have a BMW Championship.
2 Galway, 2 Ros, 3 Mayowestros and 5 Cavan.
12 out of 20.
Halcyon heritage days.

What sort of a crowd are ye expecting now? With the weather I can see it being close to full.
Cavan will bring a small crowd. Down match was the last straw for many in terms of direction and it's also being televised.
Out of curiosity, why are Cavan so downbeat? They got promoted from Division 2 this year meaning that they will have played 2 out of 3 seasons in Division 1, and therefore have a legitimate claim to be one of the top 8 to 10 teams in the country. Surely Saturday is a massive opportunity for them, i saw a Cavan journalist on twitter say that if they were to beat Tyrone it would be their biggest championship victory since 1997. And if they were to progress they would fancy their chances against any of the provincial losers for a place in the Super 8s.
I would have thought all of the above represents good progress for a county with Cavans record over the last couple of decades. Ok they shipped a heavy enough defeat to Donegal but Donegal's performances since show that they are a strong outfit. Is the pessimism related to the style of football or are the supporters not happy with Mattie? From the outside looking in Cavan had been putting up good scores in the League and correct me if I'm wrong also but haven't a host of senior players dropped off the panel over the last year or two which makes Cavan's current standing even more impressive.
Again from the outside looking in, Cavans current plight seems to reflect a more general malaise in county football at the minute. As I said, Cavan could be seen to be punching above their weight and are arguably a top 10 team, yet there seems to be no buy in from their supporters. Ok they have no chance of winning an All Ireland so you could argue a second tier competition would benefit them and give them something proper to play for. Although I guarantee if this was suggested to the players or management they would have other ideas. It seems to be a strange one and I've no clue how it can be fixed to be honest
Lad, outside Dublin, Kerry and Mayo no one has a chance of winning the All Ireland.
Cavan fans are depressed with the way we set up the last day v Down and against Donegal. Its all over the place. Defenders standing around doing nothing, dropping our best forward. I could write an essay. There is no optimism but you know sometimes that's when we pull one out of the bag.
Kerry with 7 lads making their debuts are in full transition mode its a bit early for them yet. I don't know how many more All Ireland finals Mayo have to lose before people realize they aren't going to win the All Ireland. Its basically Dublin's All Ireland to lose and it has been that way since 2013.
Cavan fans would be less depressed I can imagine if they defended better in games and Tyrone i'd say was the one team they didn't want in round 3.

How do you work that one out and by what standard? By Dublin's standard everyone is mediocre. By Everyone else's standard Tyrone are among the very best teams in the country.
We also have some very experienced players, we've players from both the 2006 and 2015 Ulster U21 winning panels, and the 2015 All-Ireland minor winners.

Jeez lads I think it's poor enough fare.
Tyrone slightly less worse than a woeful Cavan.
Can't see either side doing anything of note.
Two shit teams. Cavan just more shit and have no attacking plan at all. Pathetic stuff.
If this game carries on the same way 2nd half Tyrone will win by 8 to 10 points.
The Tyrone 45 is like the lunching pad for all their attacks. Cavan finding it hard to breach. Tyrone so disciplined in the tackle so many turn overs. If Tyrone get first score of second half Cavan could wilt.
Tyrone conceded their first free in the 31st minute.
Hard to watch aoart from tge spell where Cavan got tge few piints.
Cavan so slow and as someone said brain dead.
Small looking crowd 6 or 7k?
First twenty was good. Slowed down a lot then. Tyrone far better footballers though.
Cavan took one or two nice scores but Jesus it's absolutely dire stuff in attack generally. Just lifeless, drab shuffling sideways and backwards, largely going through the motions. What, exactly, is the plan supposed to be? If we amble around slowly enough, Tyrone might nod off and we'll nip in for a few quick goals???
I've seen more energetic attacks by the zombies on the walking dead, who deal better with congestion to at least register the odd score.

Look better because Tyrone players look fitter and more physical. A few Cavan players are either off the pace or overweight
Tyrone not even going full of the pipe playing very much as a team in every way. A breeze now favouring Cavan probably should go long and quick.
Cavan goal out of nothing 1-6 to 0-10
Jeez the embarrassment of conceding a goal to this Cavan attack.
Game on
Colm Cav a bit lucky to only get a yellow there.

The difference between these two sides is negligible as footballers. Tyrone's knack for rooting out games and Cavan's for throwing them away is the only real difference.

+1
FT Cavan 1-12 Tyrone 0-18
Didn't turn out as horrendous as it looked like it would be at half time for Cavan, but Tyrone were the better team overall and deserved the win without a whole pile of questions being asked of them. Then again, perhaps Tyrone are only stirring themselves as much as is necessary at this stage of the year but in general they don't look like making an impression at the business end of the championship.
Well done and fair play, no complaints about the result.
Tyrone just that little bit better. Cavan goal helped the score line look respectable. Even when Cavan drew level Tyrone never panicked and stepped it up a gear always keeping Cavan at arms length.

Niall Sludden from Dromore St Dympna's deserved it. Terrific heat, the guys have to go again in 7 days.
Thank god i didn't have to travel to Dublin to watch that muck! Thought Mc Shane unlucky to be subbed so early, there was a few boys should have been off before him.
Sudden excellent for Tyrone today. Him and Petey provided most of the impetus when we could be bothered actually driving forward and trying to break lines.
Awful day at the office for MoN. If Morgan isn't injured he's a shoe in next game. Calamitous under high ball today.
Team has seriously regressed from.last year.
Very poor display today.
Morgan gets a lot of stick but he's a very reliable keeper, O'Neill on the other hand is a liability, hopeless under the high and his kickouts not as good. Harte should just stick with Morgan from here on in.
A worrying display for Tyrone, it was a game we could have killed off when we wanted but didn't and kept Cavan in it. Only real standouts were Sludden, Meyler and Colm Cavanagh. Defence very off the mark, let the Cavan inside line win a lot of ball, McNamee is living off his 2015 form and needs to be dropped. McAliskey had a stinker, he's an all or nothing player really, either very good or hopeless. Today was the latter.
We're really lacking in leadership, you look at the side and apart from Colm Cavanagh there is not one player I'd expect to deliver. We all know the quality of Harte, Sludden and Donnelly but they only seem to play in fits and starts. They rarely deliver 70 minute displays and when they do, it's normally a case of one of them delivering and the others being quiet.
Ronan O'Neill played well off the bench, might be worth a start next weekend ahead of McAliskey.
Maybe we can turn it around but it looks like we're stumbling along this year until we meet a decent team and get a rough reality check. Loads of key players not going well this year.
Always great beating Cavan. Their hidings in the 40s are hard to forget.
Tyrone much the better team but I'm afraid no where close to all Ireland contenders. Cavan need a new manager. They just looked like they have gone back 5 years in my eyes. It was sheer effort from individuals that kept them in games. Far from the clever masterstroke the bluffers on the Sunday game claim, playing Sean Johnston around the middle is just pure stupid as he has no legs for it. Losing Clarke to injury was a big blow too.
Mcveety a class act, but if we can get our two star forwards back and make the super 8s then anything can happen. With mayo out I'm sure there is more shocks to come yet. Winning while playing poorly is a sign of a good team

Question for all you knowlegeable people out there. Just imagine you were managing a team and had to pick a full forward line from Paul Geaney, Paul Mannion, Dean Rock, Cillian O Connor, Andy Moran, Paddy Mc Brearty and Mark Bradley, what would it be ?
Moran/McBrearty and COC.
interesting
Can I ask why you picked those players? Any reason?
I picked those as I wondered who people thought were the best inside forwards playing at the minute. Probably could have included James O Donoghue and Bernard Brogan also. I think Mark Bradley is better than Andy Moran, Cillian O Connor and Dean Rock, but thats just my opinion]

O'Neill played pretty much the whole of the 2016 campaign? He started all of our 5 Championship games, in the opening game against Derry he scored a couple of goals and points, the drawn game against Cavan he hit a pair of points. In the remaining three games against Cavan in the replay, Donegal in the Ulster final and Mayo in the AI QF, he was held scoreless from play.
O'Neill has had his chances, there are many valid criticisms of Harte but not giving Ronan O'Neill a fair crack is certainly not one of them. He's a finisher but lacks the pace and ball winning ability to be a top forward. I felt he did well yesterday when he came on and probably deserves a start next weekend ahead of McAliskey who has had a nightmare.
In terms of what they can contribute at intercounty level, I'd have Bradley, Brennan and McAliskey ahead of him. If McCurry was available too, I'd put him down as having more to offer. Tyrone's problem is all these lads are samey types of players, all nice footballers, all quite slight and small.
The top inside forwards in the game now are different beasts - McManus, Geaney, McBrearty, Mannion etc, they're all 6ft+ pacey and good ball winners. The fact is that if Tyrone had someone like a Conairre Harrisson or Andrew Murnin, they would arguably be the main men in our forward line. The game has changed.
