Armagh still 3rd favorites for the All Ireland ahead of Donegal.


Would have though Donegal would have leap frogged them after this weekend.

They definitely should have

Galway, us, Mayo and Donegal probably all even enough. Tyrone if they perform are on similar level.

Eamonn Sweeney in the Indo notes Armagh's tendency towards systems failure on close finishes.

Some odds on Cavan given they're out lol

Armagh get the draw against Galway playing poorly.  Yes, Galway had their injuries, and so did Armagh.  We didn't kick into gear today until the goal, Soupy added intensity for the second half, but the amount of wides Armagh kicked was criminal.  Won't get away with that in a Q/Final.  But we're there and it feels good. 

[illdecide]

My take on it is Galway will be kicking themselves and should have won that game by 5-6pts. Armagh were off it all over the Park, I thought Ben Crealey was poor after having a stormer last game. He got dispossessed twice in a minute when the game was in the melting pot as he was too slow. Rian scored some lovely points but skinned twice for Galway scores, it's actually hard to find positives from the match yesterday only we didn't throw the towel in and battled for an undeserved draw. The Derry game has shown us we're not as good as we thought and TBH I was worried that the players would believe the hype and think they've made it, the truth is we're a decent side and that's it.

That free for Galway in injury time where S Walsh scored to put them 1 up is as bad a free as i've seen and haven't seen too many call it out only some Armagh fans. Can you imagine if that happens in the next game and that ended your season, did commentators call it out??. That S Hurson man wasn't that kind to Armagh yesterday.

I was surprised that McGeeney didnt bring on Greg McCabe to tighten up defence after half time.

He went a long way to showing why a ref. from a rival county and same province should not referee games of this importance.  Some of the decisions, no more so the free to put Galway 1 up in injury time, were ridiculous.

It may well be that a ref from another county would also be criticised. But only a quarter of Irish counties directly adjoin the competing counties, a ref from Leinster or Munster would be less open to allegations.

He was dire. Actually said when he was given that he was a decent enough ref but he was horrible yesterday. That free against McKay to put Galway one up was one of the worst calls I've seen in a long time
