Gives Tyrone too much credit

What aspects of Hurling make it more suitable for this status than Gaelic Football?

Half way line back pass exclusion is the only means of addressing this. Of course will keep it in their defence for as long as they can but even that at least offers opponents a target they can go after

Tyrone stepped up a couple of gears yesterday but the Rossies were woejus. I presume the VCR was broken this week and McStay and co never got a chance to get a look at Tyrone playing?

For me the main takeaway was that we got into the trenches with Kerry and outfought them. The game could have been won more convincingly but the first time any team takes a signifcant champ scalp it doesn't matter how it's achieved. The belief now has to be as good as it can ahead of an inevitable show down with the Dubs.

Divilly sees Galway as tactically far superior to Kerry - not sure about that but the fight was definitely better than Kerry's.

Just listening to the GAA Hour there and the boys brought it up but a bit mad to think the Rossies can get into the Super 8's by beating just Leitrim and Armagh. Luck of the draw I know.

Except that lucky draw isn't available to everyone...

In short, Mayo are shite

Epic fight in the small hours Saturday night / Sunday morning.

coc never struck me as that slow - he's given various Galway markers serious bother in the last five years and i'd love to have him but he seems to have gone stale inside

Looks like Lebron knows more than we do at this point

Hard to like any team with Neymar on ut

Last year with Andy the exception Mayo haven't had the firepower to get the job done. With coc so frequently coming up short in the big games would it not make sense to bring him out the field?

The Rossies have a game they should win to get to where they believe they should be - alongside Galway. Be careful what you wish for !
