Tyrone County Football and Hurling

Would be unusual for Coney to walk away after coming on last week, a couple of days before the Championship opener.

Whether it's him or McClure, I don't really see either being a massive loss. McClure might have been given more of a chance ahead of the likes of C McCann and McDonnell but Coney has been really underwhelming since returning.

McClure was on the bench for Donegal but wasn't named against Mayo so perhaps it is him.

McClure has gone from mid last week....

How would Hampsey be clear to play tomorrow if he was the Covid case?

Is it not 14 days minimum?

Since the game is being played in Republic, I presume the rules of the Republic will govern.  So a person isolates for 10 days from the date of the test and close contacts of that person isolate for 14 days from the date of the result of the test.

That's my understanding anyway...could be way off.

Government guidelines are 10 days isolation if you have tested positive.
14 if you are a 'contact' of someone who has tested positive.

Not sure if the GAA's are different.

Edit:  I seem to agree with Angelo...is there a full moon or Halloween or both together?  Strange times for sure!

Presumably he would have to have tested negative in the meantime and I'd imagine was asymptomatic if he is starting tomorrow?

As far as I know, just isolate for 10 days and you are back as a normal member of the public...no further test required.

So potentially we could have a player positive for Covid tomorrow playing?

Seems a bit mad that the rules do not enforce this a lot more strictly?

Apparently Tyrone were offered rapid testing of all panel but declined

Deemed to be no longer infectious 10 days after positive test (if in full isolation) and no need to prove it.  Close contact deemed no longer infectious (whether infected or not) after 14 days of isolation.

These time lengths have been decreed based on some evidence or research, but they sound reasonable.  But I'll bet there is an exception to every rule...and the key is 100% isolation when required. 

I honestly don't know how anyone could prove 100% isolation beyond holing up somewhere with enough food supplies and have absolutely zero contact with any person.  Even a person leaving food at an isolater's door, whether it be front door or bedroom door, has a chance (however small) of infecting that person again.

The guidelines are 10 days from first symptoms.

Surely he's in no position to play having not trained all week.
Would mckenna on Murphy be out of the question. He'd have the legs on Murphy when we would be on the attack. Presumably we will have 14 inside our own half anyway at all times

We need to have Donegal worrying about McKenna rather than sacrificing him for Murphy.

I really think it would be a huge risk to start Hampsey. I think McKernan might be the best man,  give him the responsibility to follow him. He has the legs on Murphy out the pitch so it suits us if he goes out there.

McNamee is sure to pick up McBrearty.

The training itself wouldn't be a huge issue if he's been feeling alright. He'll have been training all year so a week won't be massive factor. Plenty of boys have missed training due to niggles and still played.

Michael Murphy would throw McKernan around like a child for fun. Complete physical mismatch.
