Yeah need to back it up v Monaghan and Armagh now. We are in need of a 6 - I think that could have been Munroes last chance today. Badly burned for the 2nd goal and was hooked straight after that. Not sure what options we have there.

Hopefully we'll see Ronan McNamee back soon which will help. Great performance today. The defensive effort was immense and you see after every turn over that they were stung by the criticism and had a point to prove. Hopefully this is the catalyst to kick on. Special mention to Matty Donnelly. What a warrior of a man, showing proper leadership in the big moments.
That was never a square ball!!

Great stuff lads.  Something to build on

I struggle to see what Munroe offers, doesn't seem good going forward or defending. Am I missing something, is he very good positionally?

McNamee should hopefully solve a lot of problems and maybe O'Neill, Mattie, McGeary or Burns might help control things at 6.

Much more positive in terms of effort and result.

Not seeing much difference between MH style and todays approach though....bar the odd big man at edge of square appearance

There needs to be a statue of Mattie put up on some road beween Trillick and Dromore... Brilliant today..

Here, let's not complain about styles of play after a win like that.  If we had been going in top of the table, playing free flowing football, then we could talk about styles.  Let's get another few wins and worry about style then

Joe Oguz was a real positive for me today. Thought he was excellent, and can only get better. A certain starter from here onward
Good to see Ronan McNamee do the full warm up etc, can't be too far away from playing time
Mcgleenan in amongst the subs too, gee he is one big man. Be very interesting to see how he develops
The one downside about Div1 being so cutthroat, you don't get the opportunity to ease men in. Every minute is pressure

No sign of either Peter Teague or Paudie McNulty amongst the squad again today. I'm guessing at this stage we won't see either the year

Enjoyed seeing the two Canavans on the field at the same time today. Hopefully plenty more of that to come

We need to follow this up now. 4 points on the board. 4 more to play for.

McNulty 2 weeks away yet, was in the dugout after the game. Teague still not fit

Thanks

I was literally right behind dug out and on the pitch with my kids after the game. Somehow missed that

RoundBall

Yeah he was chatting to one of the Jones lads and Lorcan Quinn

I agree with your first point about the league.  It is very cut throat.

All teams talk about, in every league, is staving off relegation. Teams are petrified of going down.  It shouldn't be like that.

In an ideal gaa world, there'd be a 15 or 16 team league (2 leagues) with 3 up and 2 down.

It'll never happen unless it was a league/championship type format.

Great  result  today, hopefully a springboard for the rest of the season. Disappointing  crowd at the game but a great atmosphere near the end . Been  a while  since I seen a Tyrone  crowd  as pumped. Great occasion. Need a lot more.

ONeill

Yeah the 'Tyrone' chant was as strong as it ever was. Been a while since I heard that.

Mattie D - I thought he was in the autumn years. Going by today it's an Indian Summer. Kerry couldn't curtail him.
Great to see the passion. Darragh's fist-pumping at the end with the geansai ripped - typified the defiance today.

One swallow and all that, but it's good to know the Tyrone fight isn't dormant.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Redhand Santa

What size of a squad are Tyrone carrying at the minute? There were 26 named on Sunday with McGleenan replacing McGeary which brings it up to 27. Assume the following players still involved:?

P McNulty
P Teague
P McCartan
R Donnelly
C Cush
D Jones

Anyone I've missed? It did appear it earlier years that there was too many players involved making it difficult to manage. Seemed to be over 40 involved at times. 33/34 seems about right with players called in for training matches if needed.
