Tyrone Club Football and Hurling

[2ndstringsub]

With games coming thick and fast momentum will be huge. In division two I think we could see teams that lost their first two games struggle. It can be tough to break the habit of losing.Some weekend for the teams getting two  wins and they could really push on. Who would have seen Drumquin Cookstown and Dregish lording it around the top of Division two? I think any of these teams can really push on

Naomh Eoghan wont win division 2 but its a good start for them they have a few very handy players but overall not the depth of panel to go and win it. Wouldnt surprise me to see them in a playoff to go up.

Drumquin with underage successes etc of recent years should be building but wouldnt read into it too much just yet. Aghyaran are looking like relegation contenders with a changing of guard also. As for kildress like most other years they are like a child with 1 stabiliser on the bike... ok when leaning to their right but if they lean left theyll fall flat on their face.

As for cookstown they are probably the most unknown in the division, I think experience is likely to let them down at some point but a team for the future at worst.

Mental!!!

[trueblue1234]

If the rumours are true bout Gormley going then Drumquin will be in bother this year.

I think they will have enough. Aghyarn have to be prime candidates, Plenty of teams in around it such as Kildress aghaloo killeeshill etc

Hes about the only one i have heard of going stateside, it doesn't seem as popular this year, any other big names?

I'd say 'Trump's tactics' putting a lot of people off.

How are teams progressing on the injury front? Our club had a game Friday and Sunday - Lost 3 lads yesterday to hamstring injury's and our opposing team lost 2. Anyone who voted for two games to be played in 3 days given the speed the game has gone to don't understand the situations for club teams.

You see a lot of teams trying to move fixtures to Wednesdays, Thursdays, Mondays.  A Hamstring injury can be 6 - 8 weeks. So you miss the most of the league.

Watched Naomh Eoghan on friday night, i thought they could push on this year and looked strong. To defeat the Moy by nearly 20 points some statement.

Cookstown very young but full of energy and drumquin will be looking to do better than last year.

There will be a lot of twists and turns this year in D2. Pomeroy Derrylaughan and the Moy all losing in the opening weekend. Owen roes will be pushing as well

Moortown, Cookstown, Naomh Eoghan, Rock, Glenelly winning.

I'm sure the teams would disagree, Cookstown beat Gortin on friday night but beating greencastle is an upset?
Moortown at home to omagh , naomh eoghan won by 19 points and glenelly are 4/4 .. not really big upsets

We have a lad going on a 2.5 week holiday. Going to miss 5 matches, 5 matches out of 14 league games, more than a third of the season.
As you say, one basic muscle strain could see you miss most of a league campaign. That's not right.
