I was a AVA Festival on sat night so have only seen the highlights. Of all these wides, how many were actually from good scoring positions without an Armagh man putting pressure on them?

Definitely a few of them although can be hard to tell in real time how much pressure they were under, Doherty definitely had a handy wide or 2 and seemed to turn down chances then later on. McGuigan blasted one wide where you weren't really sure if it was a point or goal attempt but was very scoreable

Armagh always seemed in control tbh.
Even the scores at the end to bring it from 8 points ton5 smacked of Armagh just cruising towards the finishing line.
Would say though that across the board Armagh weren't great , simply did what was needed as such .

Game was long over at that point. Major concerns I'd have was obviously our own kickouts but that's going to be a feature throughout the year I fear given our midfield injuries.

We were fairly good outside of that when we did get hands on the ball and probably unlucky with a poor ball across to Murphy for his goal chance and McGrane fluffing his lines with another, typical the 2 best goal chances fall to the corner backs!

Also, what a fecking hit from TK, thought at the time it was a mishit shot for a point but looking back he meant it.
