AIQF 2017 Tír Eoghain vs Ard Macha, Sat. August 5th @4pm

There is no evidence to suggest that any other Ulster team are on the same level as Tyrone.

[Orior]

Safe travels to everyone today. Banter aside, I hope we get a game that confirms Ulster as the best footballing province. Prediction - Tyrone 2-19 Armagh 0-8

Yes. Can see Armagh getting a late flurry of points.

A good guess, dammit.

[red hander]

Hopefully this will serve as a lesson to a lot of seriously deluded Armagh people, especially that clown Fearon

[Zulu]

Felt Tyrone couldn't be considered All Ireland contenders based on winning Ulster because there's plenty of mid range teams in the province but no very good ones. I think Monaghan and Tyrone are the best but nothing we've seen so far suggests they can beat the best in the country. I think Dublin will beat Monaghan but I don't know where Tyrone will get scores against Dublin the way they play. They'll frustrate Dublin for a while but they aren't set up to beat them. They need Monaghan to spring a surprise.

Dublin did concede 1-17 to Kildare and the Dubs will struggle to get many score from play against arguably the most organized defence in Ireland. Dublin will have to bring their A game to beat Tyrone and Dublin maxing out before AI final almost got them caught out against Mayo last year.

True, but Dublin can shut up shop if they want and I don't think you could pick one Tyrone forward against Dublin defender match up where you could say the Tyrone forward has a major advantage. I suspect Dublin will pick holes against the Tyrone defence while the Tyrone forwards will look like they did against Mayo last year.

Well done Tyrone. We were beaten even before we took the field. A very flat performance without the intensity required to unsettle Tyrone.

Happy enough with the season. We have the makings of a good team, so we do.

[Lamh Dhearg Alba]

Laboured from Tyrone for spells and a lot of wasted ball in attack with poor choices from men in possession. Wouldn't get away with that against Dublin. Have to hope they are capable of taking it up a level or two against better opposition. Job done today anyway, a real gulf between the sides.

[seafoid]

The big question is whether Tyrone can get through to the next level and beat one of the big 3.

The team gave up.

Credit to Tyrone, the game was effectively over at 0-3. It never looked like Armagh were up for the match and a heavy price was paid.

[Harold Disgracey]

What's a compliment referee?

Does he tell the lads they have nice hair? They look good in their jerseys?

Compliant referee! Damn autocorrect and bad connection in Croke Park

[Gabriel_Hurl]

Hilarious stuff 

[red hander]

McCarron must be looking at a suspension now - 2 reds in 2 games?

Will have plenty of time to make Gay pornos so...

Classy. W**ker

Anything less than a 4 point win for Tyrone will be a failure for you, that or better is progress for Armagh.

Oh dear..... 

Nice one. Don't forget, your county is a joke every year

[StGallsGAA]

Yous Armagh ones are losing the run of yourselves.

Just be glad you're sharing the same stage as your illustrious neighbours and pray you don't get obliterated.

Far from it, but you might live to regret these intemperate comments. Most Armagh fans know that Tyrone are red hot favourites and at a further stage of development than we are. Anything less than a 4 point win for Tyrone will be a failure for you, that or better is progress for Armagh.

You're progressing well the Applesisapples.
How's the buckfast going down?

You are a twat

Big statement from Mulgrew...

He played really well when he came on. Apparently he didn't genuflect properly at mass and that's why he was left out at the start.
