NFL Division 2 - 2026

[Mikhailov]

First off great win at the death. Some balls from Flynn to go for that score , up until last year the lack of confidence would have made no one want to take it. That been said for me the score of the game was Kinsella looking up seeing keeper out and lobbing him for the goal. Some nordie on sg saying it was fortuitous (bs) he went for it, if that had been Clifford or con they'd be praising it for weeks.
Anyway we nearly left it behind us , some shocking wides . Cavan in fairness  gave it everything, and the ref in fairness tried his best for them too. But it wasn't to be. I've a funny feeling they will stay up. On the other games Derry winning wasn't a real shock think Tyrone are in a bit of disarray between the old established players and blending in the new lads, a hard act to juggle in such a competitive division.
Our bogey team is next up, the dreaded Louth on Valentine's Day. Terrible record against them over last couple of years, that been said a small bit of revenge will I believe happen.
Looking further ahead while not getting carried away I think promotion is definitely on, Kildare are going very well and the players seem to be playing for their management which they weren't previously (bit like ourselves) and we could have a double Leinster promotion, cork as always are a enigma , but I just think we can beat them. But everything said it's division 2 anything can and could happen.

Ref tried his best? Ah now, he was fairly level and let the game go.

Ahh he gave Cavan some very easy frees same thing happened to a Meath player he waved play on unless it's was blatant.

Ah come on now he didn't, watched it back and he was very even in interpretation to both sides

.
I'll give you one example. Late on in game Cavan player (name escapes me ) put his fist up for an advance mark ref blew whistle so he saw it. Player just passed ball without taking the mark Cavan got a point. By any reading of the rules that was wrong and should have been a throw ball at least

If you go by the correct rules (never mind any other reading) then you are wrong. Player can call advance mark, still play on, then called back if no advantage obtained.

That's the best example you got? Ah here, he can do that. Either way a gimme point, that's hardly an example

You've missed the addition of the advantage clause to the advanced mark rule. You can now call the mark and play on. If you miss, it comes back for the mark.

Must have missed that. As imo once you call it you take it. But what is the advantage for ? A foul ? As none was committed

The rule change was to allow the catcher calling the mark not to stop like we used to see, let him take it on but get the mark should it come to nothing. Meant to promote more goals etc rather than stopping for a tap over point

Not a second of Kildare v Offaly or Louth v Cork on League Sunday...
Like I got used to being ignored in Div 3, but it's Div 2,  so presumed all games would get something.

Was some decent highlights of Louth v Cork  and Kildare v Offaly on TG4 tonight

[Captain Scarlet]

Thanks for the heads up.

Not best , but one.
May I add that every interview after the match highlighted that Cavan got handy fress . But sure they all wrong too.
I'll leave you at it

Leave me at what? You came with this, showed a bad example, and now you've no more examples? Not really proving your point is it?

[Captain Obvious]

Rooting for Meath,Derry,Cork to fight it out for the promotion spots as it would be hilarious if Tyrone had to stay in Division two for another year.

Distinct possibility

If Tyrone get a decent championship run I don't think we'd be too bothered what Division we're in. After Meath's performance in last year's All Ireland semi-final you might be best concentrating on your own county blitzed 🔥

As long as we don't drift down to division 3 like some teams have in the recent past

Could be the first ever meeting of London v Tyrone in the Tailteann later this season.

That would make iit an interesting year for the GAA statistician community in Tyrone.
