Watched the game last night again - Tyrone were awesome - The Dubs just didn't know what had hit them.


Had Dublin scored the goal chance early on, when Thomas Quinn gave a bad ball across to Dermot Conolly, the outcome might have been different. As it was, 1- 5 to 0-2 after 25 minutes, it was effectively game over.

Yes, that was a 4-point turnaround in 60 secs. Instead of 1-2 to 0-2 to the Jacks, it was 0-3 to 0-2 in Tyrone's favour.

Similarly the Joe McMahon goal came at a crucial time just after the Dubs had got their goal and brought the margin back to 3 points. Must have been a real blow for them to concede again straight after. In fairness as well that Dublin chance Tyrone should also have got an earlier goal when Tommy went through on Cluxton.

Im getting a bit worried about DUBSFORSAM1...he seemed to be a frequent poster on Tyrone threads up until Saturday and was sure the Red Hands were to be given an education in how the game should be played. He hasnt been seen since, I hope he's ok :'(.

I wonder what effect it would have had on things if the ref ha penalised Cavanagh for taking 10/11 steps before he fired in his goal?????

Mc Stay made a complete meal of this in commentary, and even after a clear replay still chose to disregard the foul by Mc Connell.

Referee made a good call in letting the play continue!

Well he could have blown it up for the pulling of Canvanagh's shirt first which was outside the box and given a free in. That would have been before the extra steps. But it's just splitting hairs tbh as I think Tyrone were just alot better on the day.

Fuzzman

There's so much I could say about this match and when I'm less busy I might get a chance but there's one thing I will say now and that is Fair play to Davey indeed for taking that goal

I'm not one of his biggest fans and thought defensively he wasn't great again but my God he was determined to go for his goal and he still had to beat 2 men who cauight up with him and then that finish was so confidently struck you just knew he was happy to ram their words down the throats of his detractors which includes myself.

I had to struggle to get the Tyrone crowd behind me to start singing but it was well worth the effort

I emailed a lot of aul Dub pals yesterday something like this

Charlie Haughey
Bertie Ahern
Mary Robinson
Niall Quinn
Kevin Moran

Your boys took one hell of a beating

I too was getting really annoyed with McStay when I watched it again on Sunday. He's very biased as was obvious from the start he was well up for the Dubs
Then on the Sunday game he firstly admitted to tipping them for the AI but now they got hammered he said they've made no porgress since 05.

Stats sections in GAA articles are generally poor. But the new people the Irish News have doing theirs are good I think. The kick-out summary was interesting to me, total of 62% won by Dublin, but breaking it down, on Dublin's kickout Tyrone were close to 50.50, but on their own Tyrone only won 5 and Dublin 14. Does this not suggest a problem?

Yes she is, she is from Ballina,County Mayo, she also had a house in Pontoon half-way beteen Castlebar & Ballina when she was president.

Also despite how much I hate to admit it but C.Haughey was born in Castlebar, County Mayo.
