Don't be Tymoaning, lads. Time to focus on game 201.

Some serious crying about a fair tackle - ffs

That looks fair to me in the photo, v unfortunate consequences though.
Begs the question is a fair tackle in Gaelic football more likely to cause a serious injury and at the same time less of a reaction than pulling a man down.  We would rather see lads poleaxed than jerseys tugged.

Fair shoulder but a bad ball to give anybody but at least Peter had the balls ( pardon the pun ) to go for it.

Fair play to Peter Harte I must say. It was a horrible pass to receive either he pulls out of the tackle and gets labelled as yella for the rest of his days or he goes for the ball, takes the hit and gets poleaxed!! Colm Cavanagh owes him.

Nobody can question his intestinal fortitude after that!!

What age are those lads?
Fierce ould looking in that picture.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

I'm a big Tyrone fan but not from the county.
That was a classic tackle. No problem with it.
Deegan's refereeing has always been suspect
