Could Ronan Fox be an option at full back next year? I know he's playing a bit further out the pitch for Loughmacrory but did play a fair bit at full back underage for Tyrone.

He's definitely worth a look. I think we need to look at options there and plan for the future. Ben Hughes looked the part at underage, but am told he is ruled out long term
In my opinion our main deficiencies are at full back and full forward.
Need someone who can at least contain Clifford a little - he completely destroyed us league and championship last year.
Also need a full forward with size and athleticism. The combination of the two Canavans and McCurry just dont cut it at the highest level
Could Joe Oguz be repositioned as a full forward the way Cathal McShane was in 2019? Lorcan McGarrity deserves a good run in the full forward line as well

Conor McKenna has signed a 1 year extension with Brisbane Lions (as per Niall Gartland)
Fair play to the lad, but disappointing from a red hand perspective.

Not much imagination in it anyway. 

Watching the games over the past couple of weekends, we should have another strong u20 team next year?

I havnt listed any of last years minor all ireland winners - should be a few of them included as well

Add: Tiarnan Loughran, Carrickmore

Is lorcan mcgarrity still on the senior panel I know he was last year. If he is you would think Danny Fullerton wouldn't be far away

Lorcan McGarrity has something a bit different in that he has a bit of size and presence about him. We dont have too many physically big forwards available, yet seem to have an abundance of 5'10 ball playing, fleet footed attackers. Unfortunately for Fullerton he falls into that second category.

Niall McCarney (Drumragh) worth a look at along with Shane Hughes (Clonoe). Daleigh Jones deserves a recall. Good to hear Joey Clarke got the call.
After that you are looking at younger lads from last years extended panel / development squad such as Michael Rafferty, Ruairi McHugh, Conor O'Neill

Match back on the firestick

Plenty of talent from half backs up, havnt seen too many potential county additions in the full back line. A real dearth of good tight sticky man markers. We seem to be converting half backs into Corner backs etc.

Just one polish lad. Karol McGuigan, and then Wawrynkiewicz. He has a bit about him. Was still a minor this year. Id expect to see him in Tyrone U20s next year. Prospect.

Tyrone Junior cancelled this eeekend refused for:

Monday Clogher v Strabane
Tuesday Cookstown v Drumragh

Cookstown fancy themselves to win the all Ireland and their manager touting them to be senior contenders in 2 years. So this should be a procession to the trophy presentation.

Although Drumragh beat them in the league.

While they are favourites there is nothing straight forward for them against Drumragh or Clogher. So far from a procession to the trophy presentation.
Cookstown have also been relegated 3 times in the last 7 years from Intermediate and haven't been in Senior football since 2014. So they have a long way to go yet before talking about Senior Football. They do have loads of potential in that team coming through.

Is Marty Murray, Ray Mulgrew and John Gilmore still playing?

No.

Widely reported now, seen it on Belfast live

Think he has yet to make a decision on it
Probably why the subject was off limits on the various interviews TTM did, Conor wasnt mentioned once

Good to see our county manager doing water boy at a tyrone club game rather than attending the quarter finals in owenbeg! As for o meara, could he be any more full of himself.

Maybe try an pick a manager from your own county then

Can't stream the Lavey Slaughtneil game on tg4 due to my location, its happening 20 minutes up the road, when will this madness be sorted out

Dude I'm watching the stream. on my phone in Tyrone, working fine. Just flicked here for HT chat. You need to enable location services on your phone and it should work fine

Tentative nod to Loughmacrory

Tyrone SFC: Ben Hughes and Conor O'Neill unavailable for Loughmacrory clash as Counihan's men chase last-four spot

Apparently these 2 men are in talks with AFL teams is this true?

No.

On Wirtz, there was a 15 or 20 minute spell where he went out to the left wing ( once Gakpo went off) .
I think he performed better out there, plus the overall balance of the side seemed much more stable and controlled

I'd like to see a bit more of that. He has the silky skills for sure. Gakpo is limited on that left hand side, cuts in 100% of the time. Never hits the byline with a cross. He is predictable Gakpo.
Wirtz gave them a lot more to think about.
