Quote from: Mayo Border on June 01, 2025, 06:16:48 PMArmagh through already so Armagh Galway game will be a gimme for Galway. Derry Dublin in a neutral venue (do dubs still consider Croke Park a neutral ground?) Advantage Derry as dubs don't like travelling beyond M50

Don't think Armagh will risk players who are touch and go but I hope we take the chance to knock Galway out. Would rather they're gone at this stage!
That's just, like your opinion man.

Captain Scarlet

Armagh will still want more minutes in Rian and might mix it up.
But like said already if they have a chance to get rid of Galway it's something to go for.
Also Galway have had 2 very tough games with a lot of hits.
You'd imagine some knocks are there.
them mysterons are always killing me but im grand after a few days.sickenin aul dose all the same.

It be easy for Armagh to go easy on Galway, but if they meet up again in the final and Galway win, there be alot of discussion why they didn't go full guns at them in the group game, and put them out.

I'd say we'll go full out bar anyone carrying knocks.

Rian O'Neill is a different level of footballer to everyone in Ireland bar maybe Clifford and Con O'Callaghan.

Could be another team in the knockout mix to possibly do our Dirty work for us tho as well. Maybe knock out Kerry or Donegal/Tyrone.

It's not that  straightforward.

Galway could  still survive if they lost to Armagh  , and Dublin beat Derry

Quote from: David McKeown on June 01, 2025, 06:54:27 PMNot sure how much we learned about Armagh today. Very poor for large stretches but had a great purple patch just before half time.

Some positives will include

Winning without dominating own kickout.
Players coming back in
Performance of Conaty and McMullan.
Winning whilst playing poorly.
Topping the group of death.

Negatives
Poor on own kickout
Unable to really put away a side that couldn't hit a cows backside with a banjo.

Improvement needed for the knock out stages but happy to be there

Blaine Hughes a better option.  Can't see Armagh winning AI with Rafferty in nets against a strong midfield.

A baller. But Rian would eat him for breakfast.

Very odd reporting on RTE 9 o'clock news unless I misheard the headline "Armagh's luck continues"

If we beat them by enough then they won't survive.

I heard that. Very odd indeed

Yes, Armagh were  very lucky  landing those 24  points  :o

I went into the game thinking that Dublin would turn us over like they did against Galway. And after 15 minutes that seemed to be on the cards. But Armagh never give up.

McMullan, Rian, Conaty, Jarly Og, Ben all class acts.

TK is a rock at CHB - his reading of the game is getting better and better.

Cannot understand why the ref awarded Dublin a free after a Dub tripped Soupy.
