Would be a tough call alright. Lets just hope for a better game than in celtic park!

The way TS has been playing he can't be dropped.

He was very good in league final when all around him were found wanting.

Loughrey could play in HF a la Terry O'Neill last year alright. However if he does there is no place for Terry O'Neill I would have thought.

[Atticus_Finch]

Here's my team for Sunday:

                 Finucane
Brady          McClean     KOB
Kelly           Crozier        TS
             Aidso   Herron
Tomas        Mick Mc     Loughrey
Hands         Magill        CJ

Need a physical midfield pairing against Tyrone and i think that's the most physical Antrim have got.

if Herron is not fit then i'd slot Mick McCann back in there and play Niblock.

Wouldn't be a bad bench with the likes of Niblock, T O'Neill, Douglas, Paul Doc and the prodigal S(affr)ON.

In the bookies eyes, Antrim have come along way in a year.  when the pair met in the ulster final i think antrim were 8/1 and +8 on the handicap.

They're 3 or 4/1 with most bookies and +4 on the handicap.

I think it'll be a great game.

[imtommygunn]

That is exactly the team I would like to see Atticus.

Niblock off the bench would be useful.

Are Tyrone seriously thinking of playing C Cavanagh? Is it just me or can anyone else see anything in this lad? Watched him a good few times now through colleges football right up and I must be missing something seriously if he makes any Tyrone team

Wouldn't agree with you on team selection. Think it will be more like this;

Mcgreevy; brady,douglas,o'boyle; scullion,crozier,kelly;gallagher,herron;
T mccann, niblock, loughrey; cunningham, m mccann, cj or g o'boyle.

Magill won't start!
Again a very good bench to pick from.

Not sure what to expect on sunday, if antrim can replicate the first 20 mins against louth, there could be a major shock on cards.

But tyrone are a wounded animal and will easily go about their business as they know how in championship.

i'd say thats pretty much it with maybe Loughrey wing back and Crozier wing forward with Kelly at 6.

Tomas and PC will play off Mick and half forward line may be TON, Niblock and Crozier

Aye the word is he's busted with flu.

Word is Magill may be gone like the wind

heard he was thrown off the panel.

[NAG1]

Well Glens whats the story there then?

[Atticus_Finch]

Interested to know the story with Magill, got the impression he was really up for it this year after a few impressive performances in the league.

PM me if you don't want to put it out on the board.  Thanks
