Minor All Ireland Football Championship 2026

[RedHand88]

Very emotional stuff by the Kerry manager,  clearly a very tough defeat to take especially the manner of it.  When four points ahead with 12 minutes to play with the wind advantage they must have thought the win for there for them. Then took the lead again on 60 minutes after the set back with the Tyrone scored penalty.  Am I right in saying the match winning score from Diarmuid Martin is the lad that replaced Joel Kerr in the starting team today?

Yes thats right

[OakLeaf]

Tough on Kerry, but Tyrone were the better team. Deserved winners.

West Ham the epitome of BritishNess

Sure isn't the Rock as British Finchley! They didn't even want irish signs on their new building.

Can't you go 5 minutes today without making a tit of yourself mucker?

I'm from the area, know the Kerrs. Lovely people. And you're a dose of dung.

I didn't say there wasn't irish writing on the Rock Building. I said there where some who didn't want it. Check that out.

Im from Antrim im sure the Kerrs are lovely people.

On another note great win very happy for the lads, Kerr didn't show up Gourley was saying. No worries mucker

Our midfield is invisible and has been all year

I'd say this is possibly one of the worst takes I've ever read on a team. Mulgrew in particular is a superb footballer. Hard to believe anyone can watch that Tyrone team this year and draw the conclusion that he's been invisible.

Yes Mulgrew looks like one of a handful of Tyrone players today and in other games that should go on to be Senior county player so long as injuries don't get in the way or if another sport doesn't snap him up.


Good game after a slow nervy start by both. Don't think Kerry could have played any better did so much right but Tyrone found a way to win in end, fitness and conditioning very impressive for U17 team and they got big impact off their bench.

Didn't really get a good look at that incident at the end that may or may not have been a penalty - anyone get a good look at it ?

They didn't show a close up replay of the incident. Looked like it could have went either way. I'd say if it happened 10 mins earlier ref could have given it. No way he was gonna give it when it would have decided the match.

Great heart by the Tyrone lads to come back. That wind really seemed to pick up in second half and severely impacted shooting. In saying that some of the decision making wasn't great but most of those lads 16 so we can only salute the bravery, commitment and skill from both teams.

No penalty. Kerry lad looked like he was looking the foul and Tyrone didn't fall for it. Thought he could have fisted it over for an equaliser.

Genuinely don't see what others are seeing. He was better in this game than he was in previous but I just don't rate him. Would like to see the kickout statistics particularly in the first half because it seemed like Kerry were winning the large majority. I think he'll be another player like McHugh or McGleenan who can dominate in the underage games but haven't broke out in seniors as of yet and I can't see them ever doing it unfortunately

Good to see someone with plenty of patience

[Wildweasel74]

These lads are only a year out of U-16, I seen lads at that age i thought would play county, and end up not even playing for their club team after 5/6yrs.

Yes the same as plenty lose interest once life,college work etc gets in the way. Yet It's rare that recall many that has stood out at this grade as Mulgrew has and didn't end up playing for their Club team years later.

I'm more patient than most when new players get to the senior county team. I've seen players call for R. Canavan, Teague, Niall Devlin and whoever else to be dropped after a few seasons. I always say it takes a good 3-4 years minimum before a player is ready for senior county. I just don't think some of them will be good enough for maybe U20s even

[Armamike]

Great game.

Kerry must be sick to the back teeth of Tyrone at this stage.

And I wouldn't say club level. They'll be playing club level no doubt but haven't shown enough at this level that would suggest they'd be capable of senior county
