Armagh vs. Tipperary NFL Div. 3, Round 1

[armaghniac]

Will many Tipp supporters be making the trip up north, Tippabu, in your view?

There will probably another car load aswell as my own!! don't think the tipp fans will hold up the game due to crowd congestion anyway!!

We've had those uncouth Tyrone people creating a queue at the gate, more restrained visitors are very welcome.

[Oraisteach]

How risky is it having Finn Mo as starting FB.  He always seems prone to fouling and thereby giving up cheap points?

[BennyCake]

McNeice, Moriarty, Vernon, Murray. Shields, McKeever, D McKenna, Findon, Campbell, McVerry, McKenna, A Forker, Kernan, C Rafferty, Clarke

Too conservative

Will we be wearing blue rosettes or something?

There is a bus going tippabu, organised by the Friends I think. Michael power is your man. Might save you a bit of  diesel.

I know yeah, myself and who i travel with are happier doing our own thing though, we'll all end up driving once this year so not too bad.

Before the team was announced I commented on the key selection being the full forward line. The McKenna Cup gave little insight into McGeeney's plans in this area other than he tends to play more natural half forwards and leaves the team a little short in fire power - he is too conservative in his tactics. If you assume that Campbell continues to play in the middle then he only has Clarke as a natural "inside" forward. Others can fill in there but its not their natural game or best position. Its Division 3 FFS and we should be putting these sides to the sword. Its not complacency and its not a call for olé tactics. The normal quota of fire power should suffice.

Anybody know what radio will be covering the match?

Think there is audio commentary on Armagh TV.

[Oraisteach]

Thanks Throw Ball.  Anyone seen this keeper from Annaghmore?  How are his kick-outs?  Can he field a ball?  Is he tall or short? 

[T Fearon]

God forbid this young lad from Annaghmore has a bad game tomorrow.

[Oraisteach]

All right, lads and lasses.  Can't seem to access Armagh TV.  Any other station carrying the match?  What about Tipp?

[Oraisteach]

Tony, I'm just trying to find out what he's like.  I never had a disparaging word to say about McEvoy.  The only Armagh player I have reservation about is Finn Mo given his propensity for giving up fouls in front of goal. Just trying to get impressions from those who have seen him play.
