Tyrone v Cork - Healy Park, 13/03/10

[Tyrone Dreamer]

Hope you're right TD but I'm not confident at all. Going by last weekend's matches, Cork look to be in a much better place than we are at the minute. It might take a herculean effort to get anything from this.

Wouldn't say I'm very confident but think we have a chance. Not very convinced with the team picked. Would nearly go as far as to say that I'd be more confident in the following 15 if the players were fully fit:
McConnell
PJ
Joe McMahon
Swift
Sean O'Neill
Gourley
Jordan
Hughes
McGinley
Dooher
P Harte
Mellon
McCullagh
O'Neill
Cavanagh

  If your not taking the piss here then you dont have a clue and should stop posting teams right away.  No point in talking about boys who are still on the injury list and not fully ready to play, yo have to make do with the players at your disposal.

Also, 2Tyrones 2 best players thus far in the league have arguably be Justy McMahon and Cassidy and you have ommited both from your team    Stop talking about 'if we had a fully fit team' because we currently dont

Not a clue.

I was pointing out the players that were missing and wasn't picking the team that I thought that should be starting. No players listied are starting tomorrow night that was my point and hence why I didn't name Cassidy or Justy McMahon. My point was that the team tomorrow night is still relatively weak and there are quite a few still to come back.

I still don't get the Sean O'Neill thing. I think he leaves things horribly exposed at that level. Harte, some may argue, does too, but he's a much improved HB from 5-6 yrs ago.

Oneill may be better at half back i think, def not a corner back or a man marker i think.  Very good player but seen him deployed for Dromore a few years ago as a man marker on Niall Gormley of Trillick in a chmapionship match at Fintona and Gormely got the better of him.  Think he is a quality player though and deserves a run at wing back.

One major problem with Tyrone is that they have no out and out man markers in my opinion bar Conor Gormley.

[Tyrone Dreamer]

I know were your coming from O'Neill. He tends to make mistakes to when playing for Tyrone. Still don't think he leave's them any more open than Harte who's free role puts the defence under pressure when the opposition are on top. O'Neill is still young so could improve. Hopefully Cathal McCarron will do well, definately need more cover in defence.

I cant see us winning this game this evening. Cork I feel have just to much for us without our main players up front. But with this team anything is possible and our backs are up against the wall. We need the two points so it will be hell fo leather, great and looking forward to it.

[Chris agus Snoop]

Am i wrong or did I read that Mickey Harte say that Cavanagh was afraid to play against Cork last august, and that the stomach bug was just an excuse?

[longrunsthefox]

No-he didn't say 'afraid.' Kind of suggested things got on top emotionally and mentioned him getting married and his role in the GPA as causes of it... that was my take on iy anyway.

[Nally Stand]

Is that based on Harte's book or the famous interview from last weeks Irish Mail on Sunday that nobody seems to be able to find to post up?

Still too much of an 'experimental' feel to this team, but maybe this is where the corner will be turned.

Let's just call it REVENGE FOR MISKELLEEN!

In the book he referred to Sean getting married and GPA involvement in the part about him not starting against Cork. 

[Aaron Boone]

Good effort Archie.
