How to fk is Tyrone  v Kerry the first game?
Makes no sense. Surely the Mon & Armagh support would stay to watch such a game
Can't see the same interest in the second one - most neutrals in Ireland would have no massive  interest in Mon v Armagh on tv - but most of Ireland would want to watch a tyrone v Kerry 6pm game

Westmeath should get a bit of credit too
They were the better team v Armagh and it took a lucky goal in 67th min for Armagh to win they lead the whole game, they were the better team v Galway and lead until they got the sending off. They won the Tailitan cup easily last year.

McCurry had flu by all accounts
So should be back in good order

If the ref does his job then Tyrone win by 7-8 points in that game.
They were 3 up with eight mins to go and had a stonewall pen and black card turned away
Not to mention about 4 dubious frees to keep Westmeath in it.
How to hell did Daragh Canavan's man not get booked before that pen incident.

Can teams play each other who met in previous rounds
For example can tyrone now draw Monaghan again?

Apart from maybe Bradley and Donaghy
I can't think off too many others - that would get in ahead
Certainly not 15 of them

Westmeath surely have nothing to play for / they would need to beat Tyrone by 8 points which would be unlikely

Other counties don't have as many - prob because in other counties the club league is a series of glorified friendlies - in Derry for example it has no bearing on promotion or relegation
This is all based on championship - as a result county players are not too bothered about it.

Lorcan Quinn was there. Makes more sense not to use up a sub and ride out the 10 mins just wasting time. Seems to be the thing to do

Thought they played well yesterday - it was a big effort with 13/14 men
Could have been much tighter but for a few dubious decisions from Gough - they could have had frees and then Galway  broke and got free at the other end, which brought Galway a couple of points clear

Pretty clear bite from footage I seen
Will get the book threw at him for that one

Yeah you must have been under a rock a good while.

No way he can be on a sideline with those allegations
Disgraceful read

There is no way that he can manage an inter county team , with such allegations against him.

Thought Monaghan were quite lucky to get by Tyrone.
Should have been dead and buried by the break. Had to rely on Frees
A good few of which were very soft. Only scored three times from play.
Lucky enough goal at the end to put them through.
I'd say Derry by 6-8 points
