That table is slightly wrong I think. Tyrone and Armagh ended on the same scoring difference. Subject obviously to the previous discussion as to what the result was between them.

What happened at the end of the tyrone game. Dublin got a free missed it then got to retake it and scored 2 points. Did that 2 points matter?

One for the wtf thread!

Indeed. Had Armagh held on against Mayo (and nothing else changed) Armagh would be in the final. Crazy how close it was.

No Tyrone are relegated on head to head and not score difference. It would have made a difference had Galway and Kerry drawn.

Quote from: bennydorano on March 23, 2025, 06:17:22 PMGood league overall for Armagh, never once fielded anywhere close to the AIF starting 15. Get those boys back in and we mightn't be a million miles away - even without  Rian O'Neill.  Keeping boys fit is half the battle in this condensed system we've straight-jacketed ourselves into.

Big find of the league has to be McCormack in defence. Ross McQuillan our best overall imo.
Yeah those 2 and Murnin had great leagues.

Mayo the only team apart from relegated Derry who have a negative score difference.........

............  and they top the league

Mad the flip in Derrys fortunes since Gallagher went. If I was a Derry fan, I'd take him back in a heartbeat.

Meh, think they were just flash in the pan regardless of who was over them. Sure Harte won the league with them before it went to shit.

QuoteSpare a thought for Pádraig Joyce tonight , he really wanted a league title and went at it full throttle with admirable honesty.

Let's bate them in Connacht first before any digs are thrown.
They get momentum, they go mad, here they go

It is interesting how the head-to-head rule prevails throughout a 3 month league. Armagh beat Tyrone 50 days ago in a home match in Athletic Grounds.

Because of Armagh's big score difference today, I think Tyrone are down by any measurement, but the head-to-head rule should be discussed again.

With 7 minutes to play Mayo was 7th in the table on course for relegation. By full time Mayo with the help of a penalty save and the crossbar ended up topping the table.  HQ are fools for not making more of this competition.

I think they have it right.

If it was just score difference, Armagh buried a team who were down and out and had nothing to play for today and greatly increased their score difference. Tyrone played that team when they still had incentive to win.
That'd be unfair.

I agree. League is a great competition but poorly marketed by the GAA.

TG4 promotions of the games today was top class. Excellent production.

Unless you count Dublin's negative score difference, of course.

But score difference is not ideal either. It would also be affected why when the game was and whether it was at home.

Whelan bemoaning lack of intensity in today's division 1 games and Lee Keegan calling the league a tick box exercise for managers.


In fairness they make some good points about an earlier start, but was it just me or is this not typical RTE coverage where they completely fail to see the positive side.

Thought the games today were brilliant. Very fast paced

Tyrone would have been down on points scored regardless (provided that last score discussed above was in fact not counted). The table on the Sunday game was slightly wrong.
