NFL Division 1 2025

I think we can decipher..

Donegal aren't as good as the media make out.
Derry aren't as bad as the media make out.
Galway aren't as good as the media make out.
Tyrone aren't as bad as the media make out.

And you are only figuring that out now?

[Truthsayer]

The media? Most negative comments bout teams are on this board .. ps: is only the league don't think a lot of teams are emptying the tank at this stage

Derry lead by 4 points at half time, Galway v Tyrone level at the break.

[StephenC]

Shock horror. 2 good teams that are in relegation trouble have come out strongly in the first halves of their games.

Very open in Ballyshannon. Tis a cliche but you'd think that both are keeping the good stuff till the championship.

[Wildweasel74]

Seems to have been a very strong breeze,e with Derry first half, or seems that up at the scoreboard,

[phpearse]

The best 8 teams in the country are in D1. Likely that Tyrone and Derry will go down but they will still be in the best 8 teams next year but playing in D2. Very tight and tough D1, someone has to go down. Football is more enjoyable this year.

Donegal judging by their lineout and general play so far look like they dont give two shites about winning.
Similar to last week V Galway.
not exactly a revelation, but seems apparent they dont want to play in a league final, a week before the Ulster Championship V Derry, (cant say I blame them, but at the end of the day, supporters are paying to attend these games.
The GAA have totally marginalized the league, for some very strange reason.
They already know there will be a max attendance of 40k at the final, yet they could not give 10k-15k tickets away to juvenile footballers in the so called weaker counties in Div 3 and Div 4, to
a. Promote the games
b. try to provide an atmosphere.

[Wildweasel74]

Any League final need be 3 weeks away from Championship. So do they miss the 2 bye weeks or simply start the league earlier, now pre-season cup competitions are gone.

[Milltown Row2]

This is poor shit

How was Antrim v Laois by chance? Was at Armagh Dublin two of top six best teams in county.

I wasn't talking about the gsme, you couldn't help yourself but hey ho..

The constant stopping of the game near the finish when the ref looked unsure on what he was doing with the 3v3 rule

Would that not have been on the linesman?

On the linesman and the game is stopped and that uncertainty of who's free is it and why and is it correct, it's not fluent

[gallsman]

Jamie Brennan will do well not do get hooked imminently the way he's been going through last 10 mins.

Jamie Brennan will do well not do get hooked imminently the way he's been going through last 10 mins.

Yeah. A really poor few minutes. Trying to make up for mistakes.

And as I type this ...

[Blowitupref]

Derry 6 ahead and Tyrone 2 in front.

[screenexile]

8 points up with 15 to go and it doesn't feel safe at all!

[5times5times]

Tyrone & Mayo next for Donegal if they lost this... they ain't safe yet

[Truthsayer]

Tyrone & Mayo next for Donegal if they lost this... they ain't safe yet

They're safe surely on 6 points. Rake of teams behind them taking points of each other. Bottom 2 go down!
