Donegal were a soft touch, except for the 3rd quarter Monaghan were well on top in all areas. Especially the disciplined and effective defense, or that could have been down to a listless Donegal. The McKenna Cup final loss must have hurt deep and raised the aura of the Monaghan bogey.

Big, big win for us there. Badly needed, especially after being destroyed by Kerry. I think it's fair to say we should have been on more than 2 pts after our first 3 games, where we just didn't put away our chances and were punished for it.

Much improved on that front today, a bit more wasteful at the start of the second half and we probably should have gotten another goal, but we were able to up the gears towards the end and secure the win. There was a long extended period of play there where we were looking very ragged and were waiting to make some changes, but there was no break in play and Donegal were coming on strong, but luckily once we made the subs the injection of fresh legs showed. Big plays from the likes of Duffy, Woods and Mohan, who I think has been the find of the league for us. Made an immediate impact in big games.
The subs were significant and Donegal ran out of steam after their 15 minute flurry in the 2nd half .
Though typical of playing in Donegal, the wind was against Monaghan in the 1st half and died down in the 2nd.
I thought the ref did well, refereed sensibly, caught the few late digs, played advantage well and all that good refereeing just happened to favour Monaghan.

Tyrone would need to buck up here or they be playing with Antrim in Div 2.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

What was Hampsey's black card for?

Deliberate Shunt off the ball
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

This is brutal. Thought Dublin had a chance today but didn't think it would be this easy for them.

I would be happy if they could string a few passes together at this stage.

Maybe laying down a marker that you didn't beat us to win an all Ireland.

Rank stupidity by Hampsey to pick up the black card.

Tyrone seemed completely unprepared for the fact that Dublin have lost 4 in a row and are fighting for their Division 1 lives.

All 8 scores for Dublin from play.

Reports of Dublin's demise may have been exaggerated.

Going to be worse than the kerry game last year.

Jesus, even allowing for the fact they're a man down, Tyrone are absolutely brutal here. Need to wake up fast or it'll get even uglier

Pretty much any of Tyrone's 15 could get subbed off at half-time and none of them could complain.
