Dan and Matthew missing, wouldn't have predicted McEvoy to feature in MF at the start of the season to be fair

Is it safe to assume that Matthew and Dan are being rest and have not left the panel?

Looks strong to me - Meenagh might be your biggest asset. Primed for a good cut at it this year I think

You would have to assume they aren't fit, Downey was doing well enough and must have picked up a knock, Higgins was labouring with his injury as well. Bradley has had no game time due an early season injury

"Injured duo Matthew Downey and Dan Higgins miss out". In the Gaelic Life article naming the panel

Strong team, cannot see McEvoy playing at midfield, but I also cannot see anyone from 2 to 8 who can go into the forward line to bring Glass back from centre half forward.
Does anyone know when we last won a championship match at fortress Celtic Park? (Maybe the name change will find us getting better results)

Going with a very strong team for playing Antrim, i thought they try a couple of changes.forwards on the bench havent had much game time.Think u need Glass up to strengthen the forwards line. Besides long range kickouts go the length of the half forwards.

Down 2015? Although we played qualifiers in Owenbeg up until Gallagher

A stress free Ulster championship win at home under a blue sky, not often that happens so we'll take it.

Stickman

Comfortable enough game, on another day the goals column would have looked completely different. Wouldn't read anything into today's performance but Murray looked sharp. McGuigan doesn't look at full confidence but hopefully today's tally will help him. Never really got out of second game and no obvious injury concerns so we will take that and move on

I think the most important thing for Derry today, apart from the win, was no injuries, hopefully.

Important to move on to the Cavan/Monaghan game with a clean bill of health.

A few lads on bench got a run out as well as a chance to work on Derry's own and opposition kick outs.

So a good day for Derry. Park it and move on.
