Down v Donegal

[yellowcard]

If armagh stop kerr they'll win. And shock bias gilligan giving johnston MOTM

Kerr scored a very good goal but he also runs up a lot of blind alleys, serious pace though. I think Armagh have far too much up front for that Down defence. I'm glad Down won though as there will be no complacency against our old rivals.

Based on that Donegal will be doing well to stay up in Division 2 next year.

Daniel Guinness the best player on the field by a distance today imho.

Daniel Guinness the best player on the field by a distance today imho.

Who was the last representative on the county team from North Down?

[Brick Tamlin]

Agreed. Guinness and Macaleenan the standout players. But conleth had his black n white knickers on today.

Armagh should tank down but they simply won't because they are so flaky when made favourites.

[Champion The Wonder Horse]

I thought Danny Magill was the best player on the pitch.

Hopefully McCambridge is fit.

Armagh 10pts a better team than Down but as shown last night and in the league they seem to drop off badly in the 2nd Half.

Red headed half back for down was excellent whoever that is?  Shaved up the back.

Huh? Carryduff have had at least a dozen county players the past 10-15 players.

Is this Donegals worst defeat in Ulster??

[bennydorano]

Donegal a shadow of their former selves, look like a team that want the year to be over.  Down obviously have a lot of talent and more coming through, they'll be back at the top table in a couple of seasons. A serious amount of pace and power but missing a few big men.

I'm of an age where I've as much mental scarring from Down teams as Tyrone teams so Im pretty sure Down will not fear Armagh - altho I'd like to think we should have enough for them this year.

Hard to believe that Donegal pushed Derry the whole way to extra time in the Ulster Final last year.

[Fear ón Srath Bán]

Is this Donegals worst defeat in Ulster??

No, I'm pretty sure the loss to Antrim in Ballybofey in 2009 would rank higher on that particular scale.

[Wildweasel74]

That ain't the team that played Derry.
