Tyrone's 1st 25 mins was the best they played all year
But that team couldve been beat 2-3 times throughout the campaign

They will be gutted
Cork played for 30 mins and won
Thought mgmt made too many changes v quickly and not sure any sub had an impact

What players would be most impressive out of that bunch? 

Charlie Meenan looks a good prospect for the future. He's got the size. Hopefully we can bring him through.

Are there any managers under pressure that clubs may be looking at changing now with the break coming up?

Heard reports that one club went behind a managers back and approached someone else but they refused, not a nice move that if true

Very early for Ardboe to be looking at new management.

Shea Quinn Kildress + Caolan Donnelly Fintona

Liam Lawn Moortown, Liam Og Mossey Gortin, Shane Murphy Rock, Ronan Fox Loughmacrory

Some amount of upsets across both div 1/2 this weekend.
Mental!!!

What upsets was there?

Moortown, Cookstown, Naomh Eoghan, Rock, Glenelly winning.

Intermediate can be split in two: Promotion chasers & Relegation Candidates.

Promotion chasers: Pomeroy, Moy, Gortin, Derrylaughan, Beragh, Greencastle, Owen Roes, Rock.
Relegation Candidates: Killeeshil, Cookstown, Clogher, Aghaloo, Drumquin, Naomh Eoghan, Kildress, Aghyaran.

[Would also bring in 2 more from u20 squad esp McDermott as a strong last 20min goal scorer.]

Tyrone can surely beat Mayo. Kobe McDonnell had some superb moments in last 2 matches and l would sacrifice Teague to track him. Would also bring in 2 more from u20 squad esp McDermott as a strong last 20min goal scorer.
Hope Kennedyy is OK he is surely vital but injury against Rossies looked like recurrance of old problems. And what about the mystery of the Canavans esp Ruari. Is he still on the panel?
About Armagh it is all strong running and strength which fits 2 point game set up. 4 point goal is so badly needed to rebalance 2pt impacts (how to cause dispair from distance, can really suck the heart out of a team conceding or missing these esp. smallish team like Tyrone?)
Also l would bring Morgan out in 2nd half and bring in O'Kane who is good enough now for a game like this. With McElholm really getting the feel of it against Rossies he should surely blossom against black hearted Mayo.  Hit O'Shea a good belt early and he will creep into his shell (its not baywatch ye know boy!). McDonnell is the big danger,mad like his Da too.

Shea McDermott has not even started a Senior Club Championship game for Errigal Ciaran yet.

With Kennedy's ongoing injury and fitness concerns, hopefully Oguz and Ben McDonnell regain fitness soon. Will be a short summer if we are looking at Ruairi McHugh as our next option at midfield.

How light has that panel got all of a sudden

Yeah shocked at that. 3 lads yet to make a senior appearance - McHugh, McCann & McCaughey

In saying that i feel McHugh in particular should have had minutes before now.

I am shocked Ruairi McHugh is still on the panel.

Bad result tonight, very poor outing and puts us under serious pressure now in next two games. Scored 15 points and McDermott got 14 of them, really poor effort from the rest of the forward unit. No McCullagh was aching miss.

Down next week in Dungannon is do or die.

Could have been doing with McGeary from Moy after all!

Very poor forward line apart from mcdermott.

Wouldn't of made the sub bench. Poor performance just, will improve. McCullagh a big loss.

3/4 players dropped from panel this week ?

Who you hearing?

Michael Conroy, Matthew Og McGleenan, Cathal Donaghy, Ruairi McHugh, Ben Hughes, Peter McCaughey & Nathan McCarron

[Meath size and athleticism]

Much needed win, but struggled with a physical Div3 team for 40mins - Don't  think they are going anywhere fast atm with the amount of knocks a niggles we are picking up (surprised MOR let players play Sigerson, it has resulted in knocks they didn't need) But one big scalp can turn a season, but they are a mile off the top 4-5 teams.

Cork and Meath will be the acid test and with Meath size and athleticism i'm not hopeful

Wtf! All Ireland semi-final 2025:
Donegal 3-26 Meath 0-15   A 20 point defeat. Also lost Leinster final to a very middling Louth team. Some analysis that. Meath are a very poor outfit.

With McElholm now settling in well against Cavan and a good win [even if they should have got 6 goals] surely another step up against Louth [G Devlin or not]. Hope Jordan and Conor O'Neill get a full game and Morgan does no short kickouts til at least 50 mins gone! Is N Devlin fit yet?

Yes think Mcelholm inside line maybe the place for him for now and Conor Oneill looks totally at home at county level so far. Will Oneill come in for Cassidy? Cassidy doing well and hopefully he can make another step up and now adding a few more scores.

Will Daly continue at midfield?

1. Niall Morgan
2. Cormac Quinn
3. Aidan Clarke
4. Rafferty if Joey clarke not fit
5. Michael McKernan
6. Peter Teague
7. Seanie O'Donnell
8. Brian Kennedy
9. Joe Oguz
10. Ronan Cassidy
11. Conn Kilpatrick
12. Conor O'Neill
13. Eoin McElholm
14. Mattie Donnelly
15. Darragh Canavan

No real standout this week in the Macrory Cup. Not to be hateful but maybe one of the worst Macrory final performances I've seen in a while

Dungannon have Daire Devlin, James Mulgrew, Aodhan Quinn & Eoin Long on the Tyrone Under 20s and McMurray, McKeown and McGeary on an earlier training panel and none of them except McGeary again showed they are at that level tonight. Very poor performance for the calibre of player on the team.

You Would have to ask questions of the Academy management.... Bar a 20min spell the last day where the players maybe playing off the cuff they looked to have no ideas! Biggest turn around in colleges history! Wouldn't have happened in Pete Herron or MOFs day!

Who is the GAA officer in the school assuming he's an ex inter county star like Abbey? Maybe he can eventually turn around this baron spell
For academy!

Mcgeary had no help inside. Abbey dominating midfield! Mulgrew needed a helping hand around the middle like a Donaghy type in Tyrone minors but was left fighting on his own.

Abbey were impressive. Some classy players too.

Someone told me this is the first time abbey won this fixture through the school years? Is that correct?

Mulgrew one of Dungannon's biggest disappointments on the night - cleaned out in midfield. Lot of big names on that Dungannon team and you can't say any of them showed up except McGeary.

Always good to hear the Under 20 chat, but that Derry team is top notch this year.

Derry haven't transitioned the U17s through to U20 as well as Tyrone. Seargent was a key player on them teams and he is likely to miss this campaign.

Is Tommy Taggart u20 this year? Thought he was a real standout for Clonoe and he has a bit of size too.

Was impressive i thought and good free taker as well

Not on panel. Probably doesn't offer enough outside of frees.
