unless we get an early lead like the league game a few years ago itll be tight, and as you say, boring

Quote from: full moon on April 09, 2024, 03:39:13 PMI think Armagh will win it out, particularly with the draw. They also have more on the line here. I would be questioning if Derry go full tilt at this, meanwhile the Dubs and Kerry stroll to the All Ireland semi finals.
It will be Ulster final at best again For Armagh I feel. Well capable of reaching the last eight of the championship via the group stage again and might get the rub of the green in Croke Park this summer compared to the last two years.

Derry football between club and county have serious momentum and they'll know especially Harte that their best chance of winning All Ireland Quarter is first retaining the Ulster championship.  Yes Kerry,Dublin will have the advantage come the All Ireland semi finals so probably best to avoid one of them until the All Ireland final.

It's a tight Championship and always is.

Only 2 of the big 3 of Derry, Donegal and Armagh are going to make the Ulster final.

Not even a good wind up that.

There'll be a kick in Tyrone yet and Cavan will fear no one with the way they played at the weekend.

Bar Derry, I'd still fancy their chances against the rest of Ulster.

Ulster isn't going to be as predictable results wise as people think. They'll be a couple of shocks, or more like half shocks along the way. Monaghan gone already

To me Tyrone look like a team with no thought out plans/structure, talent alone gets them through some games, that's why they blow so hot & cold imo. Could take Derry on a hot day and get embarrassed on a bad day whereas Donegal & Armagh will keep it tight v Derry through defensive structures. I'm fed up with Armagh's style of play tho, so I'm not advocating it.

Very true. Having Canavan in the form he's been gives them an edge. If he can maintain that and Donnelly, McCurry, Canavan Jr, Meyler can come back to some sort of form then they've got a chance against most.
I agree my own personal opinion is that they are being hamstrung by the management with a lack of system/ plan.
