Who were Donegal missing?

Armagh fans seemed to be treating that like it was an All-Ireland

NFL Division 1 top scorers from play per Gaelic Statsman on twitter

I don't get this obsession from pundits/commentators about scores from play. They all count the same.

Shane Mc Guigan leads the top scoring charts in division 1 by a clear 7 points (on 1-30).

How many from play?

Donegal must have missed five chances to win that game in the last 10 minutes

Meanwhile

Speaking on the RTÉ GAA podcast, former Fermanagh defender Ryan McCusker believes that Kevin McStay may be overly loyal to some of the more experienced players in his Mayo squad

Just a couple more years trying Aidan O'Shea at FF. It'll come good eventually.

Tyrone "well in control" and "could go up a gear if needed"

I see the "could go up a gear" post has been deleted, hilarious.

Tyrone "well in control" and "could go up a gear if needed"

Another stuttery display by our lads and got well beaten 2nd half.
Can't have any complaints on the overall balance of play.
However the chalking off of a legal goal and denial of a penalty didnt help.
Not a good day for Mr Hurson and his umpires at the Hill end.

We are in deep relegation bother now and need to beat Monaghan next weekend to keep any hope of staying up.
Is it time to start saying its only th'oul League and thinking of May/June?
Or are we only codding ourselves?

Only Dublin, Kerry or Galway are allowed to do this

Dublin and Kerry win All-Irelands though

Hurson is a poor ref

Bringing group stages into the all ireland might diminished the league a bit with before you may have only two championship games and one pre backdoor so the league was seen as the competition that you could fall back on if you had an ealrly exit from all ireland

One should never tear down something without knowing why it was built in the first place. GK Chesterton

The great Gaels of Ireland are the men that God made mad,
For all their wars are merry, and all their songs are sad.

On a completely different note, has Sean Cavanagh had a bit of botox?

Thought he looked a bit waxy myself alright

The years stuck competing in the Bibi Baskin Cup can do awful things to the mind

55 minutes played it was level 2-7 to 0-13 a surprise it took the final quarter for Derry to pull away but win it is and the defending champions into the McKenna cup final. Result Derry 0-17 Armagh 2-7.

17 scores to 9 doesn't look great

Derry weren't good in the first half, but rectified it a bit in the second. And overall they were by far the better side. Decent spread of scorers. Good to see Loughlin getting a few from play. More game time for some subs. And a two week rest coming up.

Clare players were having a ball hitting everything that moved with little or no punishment, especially as they had nothing to lose.. And when a card did appear, they were taken off to be replaced with someone who would do the same.

I like Hurson as a ref, but today he was v poor. McConville was talking last week about protecting players and that didn't happen especially for Glass and McGuigan. Could've been helped more by the linesmen as well.

I think you're the first person I've ever seen praise Hurson

Pour auld Cavan. Will they ever manage to win the Bibi Baskin at this rate?
