Quote from: galwayman on June 15, 2025, 07:14:16 PMWhy did Carney not attempt to tackle Moore in that final play?
He just kept backing off him. Moore had no support runner. He just let him take the shot ffs

Carney was awful the whole game. I thought he might get subbed but they kept him til the end.

He was generally excellent and contributed to a hard hitting enjoyable game.

But he refereed one side's big old unit very differently to other side's big old unit .

Prediction

Kerry vs Galway
Dublin vs Cork
Down vs Cavan
Donegal vs Louth
It won't be the next manager but the one after that Meath will become competitive again - MO'D 2016

Norm-Peterson

O'Donoghue stayed on the pitch to sign autographs even after the defeat. The same can't be said for some of the Derry players recently. It is easy to sign autographs when you are winning.

Have fun for the remainder as we sit back and let ye at it.
Looking at some of the other games this weekend it's like a different sport to what we're at.
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

Shane McGuigan was getting photos taken with supporters after the end of yesterday's match. Didn't see him sign anything so I guess whatever point you are making is valid.

Yip, saw Brendan Rogers handing his gloves over to a young supporter at the end of the game, but I didn't see him sign anything either. Always good to back up a point like Norm's.

Bit of sense needed from parents. Kids should be kept away from players when the team has been defeated.

For the draw tomorrow what pairings are not permitted?
Teams from same group or teams you have played in provincials?
Is there another draw next Monday for full Quater finals?

Last year after Galway had beaten Derry in Round 1 of the Championship, Conor Glass stayed around to take selfies with the Galway kids never mind the Derry ones ( he poses for one with my Galway young lad).

Tyrone were motoring well today, ticking along nicely and making the QF directly is a huge positive for us. Some initial thoughts from the game...

- McKernan boxed off the ball then completely taken out after letting the ball go within first 5 mins. Looks to have dislocated shoulder or broken collar bone. Unlikely to see him again.

- Mattie Donnelly had a unreal first half, what a warrior

- Darren McCurry was on fire, particularly in second half. Darragh Canavan picked off some lovely scores too.

- Mark Bradley didn't start and we rotated men into the FF line with Canavan and McCurry. Nice mix of running football and some early long balls too.

- Kennedy played full game, thought he was a wee bit rusty given his time out but he is essential for us around MF. Winning primary possession is still our weakness however.

- Kieran McGeary is having some championship, was fantastic today.

- Petey Harte has to start imo, he's such a positive player and so much good play comes off his ability to create chances and set up attacks from breaks around the middle.

- biggest cheer of the day was Conor Meyler getting on for last 20 mins. Looked like we'd seen the last of him but huge to have him back. Great photo on social media of him overcome with emotion at the full time whistle when meeting his mum on the field. Seriously tough 23 months for the lad.

Would be surprised if Bradley starts the rest of the Championship. No Tyrone player covered themselves in glory against Mayo (Mattie Donnelly excepted, maybe) but he looked particularly bad.
