Armagh v Derry. Group 4

[Solo_run]

This was going to be a tricky game for Armagh after the ulster final loss. The Jekyll and Hyde characteristics are coming back out and it is concerning. That is not to take away from Derry they were able to expose our complacency and took full advantage - if it was not thanks to Rafferty that could have easily been a defeat despite building up a comfortable lead - or can we not say that now considering how quickly they are wiped out

[Orior]

I agree that Darragh McMullan has his best game so far.

At half time I thought that we didn't have a big enough lead but then after a blistering start to the second half the result was safe.

I thought that the ref was very good.

Plenty to work on fur Armagh
Would have preferred a bigger win but think it will keep Armagh grounded
Think Derry could beat Galway

Armagh have never lost when Gordon Lyons has been in attendance

He's a Derry man, surprised he left early with the comeback on

Derry have a good team coming but they 3/4yrs away, most of the subs coming in were 19-22 who played barely any league ball. Hopefully they can blood alot of younger players in Division 2 nxt yr. Need find a consistent right sided free taker.

He likely wanted to get  home in time for the  Saturday Game highlights

Hurson decided to abandon the blood substitution rules today. It seems the current rule to is stop the play and treat the player on the field for however long it takes. Must say the announcement of that rule change had escaped me.

I noticed Shane McGuigan telling the N25 to get tae f**k when he tried to come on to blood sub replace Glass. Tally hasn't got 100% control of that operation

Derry bound to be regretting not going all out for Mal O'Rourke

[Bro Jolly]

Strange game today- I don't know if it was a case of Armagh running their bench and becoming disorganised or Doire saying fek it and letting the shackles off - hoping it was the latter and for more of the same next week against the tribesmen.

You severely reduce your chances of  winning a game if you can't even win your own kick out - be that short, long or dirty ball.

Armagh eased up so as to ensure that Derry were still confident enough to give hard games to Galway and Dublin.

Armagh eased up but Ethan Rafferty didn't get the memo....

Sure O'Rourke wouldn't come, he been approached a few times. Different driving 2hrs to Derry each way, and then 15mins up the road for Tyrone training.

Id say Tally was happy enough not to have to sub Glass. Id doubt he'd be annoyed by that intervention by McGuigan
