Quote from: tyrone08 on July 04, 2025, 07:02:23 PMThoughts on moving mattie closer to goal and starting sparky. Mattie has the physical presence missing in forward line and sparky has the speed and movement.

Would allow us to end with our strongest team on the pitch.

Also option of rotating kennedy or conn into forwards for a few long balls throughout the match.

Can't see it, Matty at 11 seems the order of the day with Dazzler and Darragh inside, they definitely start with that

Interesting one for me is whether Petey Harte starts or held in reserve, I'd be inclined to start him

The thing is thats what everyone is half expecting. As tyrone havent been putting in great performances they need something unexpected. Definitely think big kennedy in for a few long balls would cause a bit of chaos.

If you start with mccurry and darragh who do you bring on to change it up other than McElholm

True, a surprise tactical move can often pay dividends, I feel with Tyrone lack of depth and a number of potential limitations that big Kennedy should be let play his specialist position without roving to an ad hoc FF role that will render him out of the game when they inevitably don't kick to him

The Kennedy FF role is not one I would go for too often. Tried for a couple of years under Dooher and Logan and not much came of it. Kennedy will have enuf running to do

An Watcher

We've plenty of other big lads who could cause problems in there.  Kennedy is too important for midfield.

Matthew F Daly super since coming on.

Does anyone have a list of players and clubs?

3 of those Fintona players stood out today. Along with the U20 lad Donnelly they might make a stab at Intermediate in a couple of years time.

Well seen. Fintona with good numbers on Omagh CBS teams the last 2-3 years, definitely a coming team, deserve all they get for a big investment in youth

Interesting to see if Donnelly can punch into Tyrone seniors the next few years, all 3 half backs got on U20 team of the year, also the last 3 U20 poty been Tyrone

The transition to senior is a big jump, how's Potter from Killyclogher going at the minute, looked like a prospect to me, and Owens from Beragh has a bit about him

A good Tyrone crowd travelled today to Newbridge.

I'm not expecting too many to go to Croke Park next Saturday. It's never easy planning a journey on the Twelfth. Augher, Sixmilecross and Coagh have the Tyrone demonstrations, so they are towns to definitely avoid.

Yes looked liked a decent crowd which was good to see. Next week you never know but realistically a lot of Tyrone folk will probably head to the likes of the
Downings instead.

Youd get a better pint in the Harbour Bar than in Croker, that's for sure.

Not much to say, the better team won. Kerry just that bit better than us all over the park

Clifford masterclass into the bargain. Paudie battled on manfully, but we didn't even have an alternate option to make a switch

Rory Brennan and McKernan injuries unfortunate

Niall Devlin, Seanie OD were among our better players. Daly & McElholm did OK too - that's from the 2022 u20s

We were too slow in our attacks, our lads either didn't trust their accuracy in the kick pass, or didn't trust their man to win it.

2026, div2 we need more youth added: O'Hare, Rafferty, McElholm
Could Ben Hughes be an option for Clifford next year?
McHugh another option for midfield?
Ronan Cassidy or McCullagh - could they have bettered McCurry s performances the past 2 games? Conor Cush ready for another crack?
Gavin Potter, Callum Daly & Conor Oneill can't be too far away
Cormac Devlin probably the best kick passer coming through
I don't think we have seen the last of Conor McKenna. He has 3 months remaining 9n his current contract

Until now, management have been very cautious. I feel like they have tried to reinvigorate the class of 2021, rather than start afresh

A reality check of a defeat, but we are in a very fortunate position, sitting on a crock of young talent

Bring on the club championship
