Ryan O'Toole, Kieran Duffy, Ryan Wyllie;
Karl O'Connell, Conor Boyle, Conor McCarthy;

11 of that published 26 played in the 2018 All Ireland semi final.  (R Beggan,K Duffy, R Wylie, K O'Connell, D Hughes; R McAnespie, S Carey, C McCarthy, C McManus,K Hughes, J McCarron)

From that potential line up  the only change from the 1/4 final is Lavelle in for Darren Hughes.

Monaghan have been written off  more times than the saying 'punching above weight' has been uttered  on the airwaves.
But I don't recall us being so totally written off  before a game as we are now, total as in a multi billion euro Anglo loan write-off.
Personally I'm copacetic  in regards to the game.

When you look at it, its a very strong Monaghan bench. I'd prefer to see a fit Darren Hughes start but a great option to come on.

Where are all the dublin forwards? Monaghan playing across their own 65 and nobody near them. Surely the dubs aren't all in their own half of the pitch?

You cant see them, they are so far forward they are out of the vision of the TV,
