Tyrone are a crazy price for the game tonight - very short odds at 1/10.

Down will not be easy to handle, especially as they have 3 regular senior starters plus the county is on the up at the minute. We have no regular senior starter players involved whereas they have Murdock in midfield plus Magill and McCarthy in defence who played a lot of NFL for Down.

Hopefully, Tyrone have too much firepower up front but it will be a tough tight battle.

I still expect Tyrone to win a difficult game but won't be near as easy as the bookies make it out to be. Similar to last years game result will do fine

Tyrone should definitely be favourites with a good lot of players involved from last year and few added in from minor all ireland final team of 21. But 1/10 is very short. U20/u21 grade can be funny with teams growing into the competition as it goes on. Tyrone have a lot of good players in the forward line but it would be fairly light. McGleenan a miss in terms of physical presence from last year.

Where has big McGarrity gone from last year? Was a great target man.
Surprised Owens from the CMS team not in 26 as well.

Two surprising omissions for sure, possibly injuries

Think Cormac Devlin is injured
Callan Kelly I thought would be in the 24

Donaghy and Muldoon both starters last year?

Aye James Donaghy was a starter last year, Muldoon often appeared of the bench

Thought Noah Grimes would be involved too

One thing about this management set up, if your not 100% committed, your not involved. In the past they have overlooked talented players like Danny Fullerton and Michael Conroy
I'm not suggesting any of the absentees are not committed, I'm just pointing out they have form for selecting players whom are 100% all in, at the training sessions which we don't see.

Hope no one put the life savings on Tyrone at those odds.

One positive is that Ruairi Canavan can concentrate on the Seniors now.

Big surprise that. Wouldn't have an impact on the club leagues starting earlier no?

Good job that you put the whole thing into context

McGarrity out with a broken wrist.
Conor Owens not part of the squad, same as Noah Grimes. Never called up.

Surely be looking at someone different taking the team? Devlin has been there a long time and results have been at best mixed with some exceptional talent at his disposal.

Not sure what you mean? but I don't think it's the worst result in the world for Tyrone Seniors this year that the U-20's have been knocked out early.

That's a very poor result tonight. Best team in Ulster on paper. Tyrone were a bunch of individuals Vs Down who were a well drilled team who fought for each other.

I think it would have been a good result tonight if the u20s had won.
I dont think that Ruairi Canavan at 19 will be the difference for Tyrone seniors this year.
He is potentially a star but he has a fair bit of learning ahead of him before he fulfils that potential
