Thats a strong Tyrone team...Tyrone by 6-7pts pulling up. Won't matter what colour of tops Armagh wear, KMcG for the sack.

What's wrong with that? Geting knocked out of Ulster isn't a big deal anymore. Obviously teams would love to win it especially in a game like this but she's right. Sure the Errigal lads were kept out for how many league games? MOR seems to always be looking ahead

That would be my reading: 'bigger fish' could be Armagh in the All Ireland knock-out stages. Sure look at Armagh with all those Ulster titles in the '00s usurped by Tyrone 3 All Ireland wins 🏆 🏆🏆

Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Yeah it would be daft to play Darragh today if there are any questions at all over his fitness. Far more important to try and ensure he is 100% for the weeks ahead.

Still going to be a fascinating game on a few levels. Very hard to know where Tyrone are. They were basically a rudderless ship for the past two seasons. While O' Rourke inherited a panel with great talent and potential, it was always going to take time to sort out the mess of the last two years and integrate the new talent coming through. The fact the sport itself is in a state of flux with new rules adds to the challenge. Despite that, there were signs of progress in the league. Despite relegation Tyrone could easily have won 6 of the 7 games. Indeed, Armagh was the only game in which they didn't compete. But where are we really - well only the next few months will tell.

Few questions over Armagh still too I feel and the elephant in the room that we're all playing a sport that has changed pretty significantly with the rules. So I can't call it but looking forward to seeing what happens.
