Fair play to Monaghan.

Consistently at the top table.

Game was in balance for 50 minutes then Monaghan kicked on to win comfortably. Not sure how much I'd read into it given the lack of intensity in that contest and played in a soulless arena with just the lower hogan stand open.

Based on the full league season Roscommon should they overcome London aren't going to get close to beating Galway in Pearse Stadium regardless and then will have 4/5 weeks to prepare for the All Ireland series time they'll need on the training pitch given the area of concern at both ends of the field.

Monaghan three weeks to prepare before a full intense Ulster championship. Will need to sharpen up defensively as only the two relegated teams conceded more than them in division 2 and a more clinical Donegal,Tyrone,Armagh would not waste the opportunities that Roscommon did last night.

Assuming our management and new coach have a plan.....
It likely involves being ready for the AI group games.
And be able for 70 minutes not 50 as seems to be the ceiling at present.

I know it means a lot for D4 and non Leinster D3 teams to get a Croker Final but a big empty Stadium isn't a nice place to be.
If League Finals are to  be kept maybe give the table toppers home venue?

Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

Roscommon have London to be worried about. Going full guns for 70 minutes last night and then losing to the exiles wouldn't go down to well there.

Well done to Monaghan. Full value for the 10 point win and while I thought we looked the better team in first half, Farney men totally dominated the second half and ran out easy winers. We also got killed on two pointers, and any needless free outside arc was well punished by in-form Beggan. We've lost 3 and drew 1 of last five games against Div 2 teams and only for the early wins and surprisingly easy win in PuC against Cork, would not be heading to Div 1 and will struggle to stay there yet again. A golden generation of Ros players now have a lot of mileage in legs and starting to show. I still think we'll be a dangerous animal in Connacht once we get a few top players struggling with injuries back.
