Think I'd have Derry above Kerry in the current pecking order. Hope they front up for the Dubs in any league final tho, if they bend the knee again they'll get also get humped in the AI when it really matters imo.

If Derry bend the knee again to Dublin then big doubts will persist over their mentality in the big games.

Some people will say it's only the League but if Derry could win it then it might help elevate them to the next level and give them the self belief needed to go on and challenge for an All Ireland title.

It's not Dublin, they everybodys problem not just Derry. I think Derry people can see we short 1/2 consistent  scoring forwards, rest of the team improved with cover at Defence and Midfield. Even with Paudie Tad and Paul McNeill not here this year, the sub bench looks stronger. Had we Canavan beside McGuigan we been in some position.

Quote from: imtommygunn on March 17, 2024, 07:03:59 PMKerry and Dublin are the only two with the depth who can pull themselves out of any hole they may find themselves in. The rest take it seriously enough. The likes of Tyrone and maybe Galway have got wake up calls in the league. Tyrone will be better for it but Galway need to keep players like comer and Walsh fit to be all the better for it. A final in it is no big deal though.
There are 8 teams in Div 1

Kerry and Dublin make 2
Tyrone and Galway "got wake up calls"
Roscommon and Monaghan didn't "take it seriously"
"the rest" = Mayo and Derry !

Teams getting beat doesn't mean they're not taking it seriously.
Roscommon used 31 players. I wonder how many other teams did.

Roscommon not too different to other counties in Division 1

We need a win next week and hope Kerry don't lose too much interest and beat Galway.
In reality we're gone so farewell for possibly a few years....
A Dublin Derry Final almost a certainty now.
Davy's given us a dream to cling to
We're going to bring home the SAM

Derry field a line out similar to the Dublin game, against Roscommon.

Would be great if the GAA would ban  that sc**bag Cathal Heneghan for the rest of the championship which he deserves for such a dangerous and cowardly act, but we know he'll miss no game of consequence.

That's nasty looking alright. No doubt bout intent there.

That's what Jarlath Burns' legacy should be as President.

Stamping, if you pardon the pun, out stuff like this and clean up the game.

Disclipline, or lack of it, is a serious issue with incidents like this and lads assaulting refs in club games etc.

Definitely doesn't look great. Only he can answer whether there was intent but if it was deliberate then he deserves a 12 week ban.

Is it though? I think the game has never been saner, it's become almost a non contact sport where lads are getting yellow cards for personal fouls.

For intent is carries a two match ban. League and championship connected now so if banned he'd miss the Derry match next Sunday and championship opener v Mayo.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose
