Fair play to Cavan. They were more clinical and made the most of the favourable refereeing decisions they got to record a deserved victory. Some positives for Armagh but a lot of negatives. Reminded me a lot of the Meath game in the championship. As long as we avoid Monaghan in the draw I'd be happy enough although I think we'd need to get lucky draws from there to make the Super 8's.

There's a very good bunch of players there. I'm yet to be convinced there's a good team.

I'm firmly of the opinion that once McGeeney goes Armagh will push on a level given the players in the squad.

With who in charge?

Shamrock Shore

Delighted to see Cavan back in an Ulster final.

It will be a tough one to get over Donegal but they will give it a good lash.

Mickey Graham's stock continues to rise.

Given the attacking attitude of Cavan, it will be a competitive final. Difficult to decide how good Donegal actually are given how bad Tyrone were on Saturday.

Radio coverage said that Cavan had him well swarmed on kickouts to hoover up any break ball.

We didn't get a lot of breaks. They done their work from the last game.

I have seen Armagh a number of times during McGeeneys reign. You have some excellent footballers.  You could easily be a super 8 team but you have no kickout strategy and your tackling technique is very poor.

Fair play to Cavan today and I wish Donegal all the best in the final
Wanted.  Forwards to take frees.
Not fussy.  Any sort of ability will be considered

Congrats Cavan and probably deserved. All the best in the final, would genuinely like to see Cavan beat Donegal...So Good luck.

Cavan were very economical today and i think they only had like 4 wides, I do believe Armagh had to work a bit harder for their free's today and there were two moments in the game where we should have had a free in front of the posts and didn't get it and Cavan went up the field and scored each time - McVeety is a class footballer and was a real thorn for us over the two games.
What next for KMcG? We had our chance the last day and bad tactics cost us the last day, he either doesn't play S Campbell or takes him off first sub in games and everyone can see that he's too good a footballer to be sitting on the bench I suppose we'll see how the rest of the season pans out with hopefully a bit of a run in the qualifiers, as someone said Armagh have some v good footballers and should be doing better...

Today was the second league or championship match I have missed over the last 5 years and am firmly of the same opinion. Can't comment on today until I watch the rerun.
