Good win for kilcoo but you cant take anything from it as Enniskillen were not at the level expected in the Ulster club. Glen have made no secret that they want a craic at kilcoo so this will be the game to judge were kilcoo are this year.

Poor result for saval. I expected a better effort.

No disrespect to cargin or enniskillen but it looks to be  shaping up to another kilcoo v glen showdown. Both kilcoo and glen are operating at different level to the rest so this will be a ding dong.

Ballybay much better that cross and very impressive. Cross are well off the pace.

I rate niall mc aleenan. I was very impressed with him when he was at the point. He has done well with cranemore but I dont think they were simply not ready to win armagh yet. I think he has potential to be a future Down manager. I am not sure about mickey Donnelly but he has experience in the game and has good knowledge of the setup of the top team in ulster tyrone so that can only help our setup.

Cuban I agree. As a neutral I felt he was very harsh on kilcoo but thankfully the best team won

Cpn are again underdogs for the final sunday. They seem to deal very well with this tag to date in the championship. Kilcoo were very lucky against the yellas but they looked strong in the semi final against the bridge so I expect they will take nothing grant it on sunday and will show the point the respect they have earned but I think kilcoo have just too much experience and should win it by a few points.

Serious question...

If your club had an open management position, would you touch Poacher with a barge pole?

Football is horrendous to watch, and his side-line antics aren't much better.

Every coach in Down and Ulster are playing this way, name a club in Down that plays attractive football because I can't.

Its not just Steven Paochers fault, the GAA need to change the rules.

You didn't watch the Cavan semi final on Saturday night then? Goals scored from players actually kicking a football more than 20 metres, in to a full forward to win his battle for possession. It was revolutionary stuff.
Cavan club teams haven't won a lot in ulster.

Well done to point. It was a tense close game throughout but the point deserved it. Burren came up short and I could not understand why they did press on all the point kick outs in extra time. That young lad in the point half forward line has some pace and is worth looking at at county level. Liam kerr looks great on the ball but he did not penetrate enough to cause the point problems.

To think Clonduff will beat Kilcoo is the talk of a drunk... Kilcoo 2nds would beat Clonduff at the min.

Yellas restored some pride. They were being laughed at a few weeks ago but they put things right tonight. It wasnt pretty to watch but they could have won it.

Credit to poacher and clarke with mayobridge. They are going along nicely. Carryduff have progressed but I still cant back them in these big games. I am not sure what it is but wud love to see the make breakthrough but you have to be good enough. I expect yellas to be more competitive than last day out later this evening but u wud expect kilcoo to manage it out.

I think Mayobridge will beat Carryduff. I have a feeling Clonduff could be dangerous this time around for kilcoo as everyone writing them off.
