[Michael O'Neill did a solid defensive job the last day]

read that when Dooher was asked about fitness of canavan & mcshane that he mentioned johnny munroe is back from injury and it's a big boost, will he get some game time this weekend? feel like him or tee are going to start with the other being an impact sub. either way, mickey o'neills run in the team is done and by god am i glad, offered the bare minimal vs donegal and looked like a lost sheep at times

Jesus people are harsh on players.
Michael O'Neill probably posted a few 6/10 performances over the last few games and if others chomping at the bit to get in his place is probably up for grabs but by no means a lost sheep or not warrant of a place on the panel / field

It's always the way, players get better and better in the eyes of the general public with every game they don't play. Michael O'Neill did a solid defensive job the last day and I'd be surprised if he doesn't start on Saturday.

At the start of the year I was hopeful that Johnny Munroe would make an impact but due to injury he hasn't made a single match panel through the league and championship so far, it seems very unlikely he'll be thrown in for an Ulster final.

Michael O'Neill has been the weakest link in the tyrone team throughout the past couple of years. What Harte saw and what logan&dooher sees in him I will never know. Good club player but by god the man is miles off county level. His positioning is awful and if you went to any of the games you will hear Morgan or Hampsey constantly shouting at him to set up properly. He is a physical specimen but his football IQ is seriously lacking. He doesn't possess any of the traits a good 6 should such as composure, leadership and as previously mentioned a good footballing IQ. Hampsey should be moved back into 6 he has it in his locker and has performed spectacularly at this position before.

Logan and dooher see him every night in training so I'll trust they are a better judge than you of his ability and contribution in comparison to any alternatives. He's actually been given a man marking job this past couple of games so hasn't been asked to play a traditional 6 role.

What a childish statement by that logic nobody's opinion is valid unless you are at every training sesion.

Man marking job? What game were you watching? Who was he man marking?

Kezzy Corr was starting for their seniors throughout the league the year they won the championship

One player just?

I believe so - Coalisland seniors were struggling to field a reserve team at times in fact I believe the played a game with 16 players and then forfeited the next game due to lack of numbers. There should be a new rule proposed. I believe the IIIs should have a 4/5 match period before the seniors submit their players not eligible to play IIIs as the first few games could show a lot of how a player has progressed through pre season. This 4/5 game grace period would also help with injury issues than can lead to problems with numbers at reserve level.

Can you tell any more or do you just like being mysterious?

Edendork v Dungannon. Don't know how much paparazzi were there but from the footage I saw it looked like an all out brawl. Two poison clubs showing their true colours.

Been reported to police.

Does it warrant involvement from the RUC?

[once Paudi comes back]

anyone here who thinks the reason Coalisland are performing so poorly because of their thirds time - hasn't the slightest clue about Gaelic football

i've seen them twice this year. vs Omagh and vs loughmacrory

in their overall squad from previous league seasons, they have 90% of their squad available at all times, jason Carberry and Eoghan Hampsey the only 2 noteable players i didn't see in either game. the problem either lies with the management having no system or the players who simply aren't putting in the required effort. they won't be relegated. once Paudi comes back for the last 9 league games, he will soon lift the thing

Coailsland are not safe yet. Don't have an easy schedule ahead. Their next 3 games are versus Dromore, Moy and Clonoe. Won't be easy for mcguckin maybe they could up his wage for the next few weeks.

Still think Coalisland will stay up but this year won't be easy for them.

What are we thinking for the starting line up for Saturday

1. Morgan
2. McKernan
3. McNamee
4. Hampsey
5. McCann
6. Burns
7. Harte
8. Conn
9. Kennedy
10. Meyler
11. Sludden
12. McGeary
13. McCurry
14. Donnelly
15. McKenna

Brennan and O'Neill to be replaced imo.

1. Morgan
2. McKernan
3. McNamee
4. Hampsey
5. Sludden
6. Burns
7. Harte
8. Conn
9. Kennedy
10. Meyler
11. M Donnelly
12. McGeary
13. McCurry
14. R Donnelly
15. McKenna

Wouldn't start McCann as he will be more effective as a sub as seen vs Donegal

[Why did Conn not get a game until championship?]

What's the thoughts on lee Brennan not getting a game or even on bench and Conroy gets a slot. M Cassidy and Liam Rafferty not involved either.

Why did Conn not get a game until championship?

Conn was injured.

Honestly forgot about Lee Brennan when is he due back?

[teams will usually name club members who are long past their playing days and would never be participating in any games anyway]

This is the case, however, i believe that teams will usually name club members who are long past their playing days and would never be participating in any games anyway, this is the same for section 9 of the document.

The rules may have been changed to be more strict on this though, im not 100% sure.

That trick has been done by pretty much ever club when submitting players that can't play in reserve games for decades now, though I think it's less common these days as at times in recent years the County CCC have come back to a few clubs asking them to justify some names that haven't been on team sheets the previous season.

The question is, I guess, is there anyone playing for Coalisland III's that only a couple of seasons ago (or even last year) were in the starting 15 for their senior team, our were at least semi-regular substitutes?

[Pattys]

Play it behind fkn closed doors to stop ye whining and make sure no undesirables  might get in.

Could start by cancelling Connacht due to lack of interest.

14,000 tickets sold up to this evening.

Fs is that all, no supply and demand issues there, seen more at the club finals on Pattys day

Cardinal sin.

Edendork 0-9 Dungannon 0-16
Ardboe v Donaghmore (OFF)

Big results for Eglish and the Lough;  lesser extent Moy?

Both Loughmacrory and the Moy sitting on 5 wins and a draw out of 7 this year. Savage start from the Moy especially when taking into consideration the absence of Michael Conroy - a man who scored 0-13 out of their 0-15 vs DKB in the championship last year and missed a tough free at the end to send the game to extra-time.

Don't have much intel on loughmacrory but seem to be a hard nut to crack this year. In terms of Eglish, they have 3 wins currently which is a good start but I'd imagine they will need 2/3 more to stay up.
