Can't see it, Ruairí McCullagh is the future

The Bearded One

Quote from: God14 on August 30, 2026, 09:01:51 PMHope to see McShane back in the county set up next year
Absolutely flying at the moment

We are blessed with options in the full forward line, but McShane has that size and athletism about him, sets him apart from many of the other optioms

Stop that. He was playing against the team with the joint worst defensive record in the league and not a single decent man marker.

In the infamous words of Arthur McRory...the next time Tyrone are playing Aghaloo...
It is what it is. Presumably.

Quote from: ONeill on August 26, 2026, 11:14:28 PMSorry to read that Gavin Devlin doesn't like Tyrone.

I mean that was my first thought too. However I think he's close enough to the machine that he can point out the bad yet still have that crest on his mind. If he ever gets a charge at the manager role - he would be 1000% behind that crest. Somethings just leave a sour taste. But Ice Cream tastes better in the winners circle.

Maybe apart from venting its a long term negotiating tactic. But he has been at this for at least 8-9 years with the occasional talk like this. Would still like to see him given a chance. Cannot warm to O'Rourke and even more his backroom deputies.

And McCullagh is the man hope he stays around and Colton with McDermott to cover for any missing soured tendonised Canavans.

correct mc Shane tried and tested at county level in several positions just to try and accommodate him in the team towards the end of his career. Aghaloo respectively a junior side now and were playing with 14 men. Mc shane this year played league champions Naomh Eoghan in Div2 and he only scored 2 points, 1 from free and 1 from play, more chance getting into tyrone overs 40s than back in the county team

Can't see him back, tried and tested. Not at county level any more. Good enough club player and might just take O Roes into senior if they get past Cookstown. Would probably like a year or two in Div 1 before he packs it in. Need the next generation to push through.

Quote from: UtilityMan on September 11, 2026, 08:55:15 AMCathal Donaghy outstanding again, think he would be a serious asset in one of the wing half forward spots for Tyrone where we are lacking a bit of physicality.

Hopefully Cathal can be talked around to giving the county another go, remains a standout midfield player. Play him wing forward and stick with him through the league.

Whos impressing?

x 2 Donaghys for Loughmacrory. Are they worth another go?
x 2 Cushs for Donaghmore. Can they make the step upto county?
Conor ONeill will be a good addition
Was impressed with Mattie Og McGlennon
Assume Peter Harte is retired as last year it was said he couldnt commit. Still a class act but a hard slog for someone in mid 30s with family.

Anyone impressing in junior or intermediate?

Conor O'Neill be a wing forward at county level? Anyone from Galbally or KC worth looking at? Maybe not based off championship. Hard to know really. Nobody that hasn't been given a chance that's ready to play county football has really stood out to me

Goals_Will_Come

Conor O'Neill potentially a good option at wing forward next season or two and more long term as a replacement for McGeary at wing back. Half back does seem his most natural position. Was excellent for Queens in the Half Back line as well.

Killyclogher couple of big lads but not upto speed how good they are. Gavin potter has electric pace but spent summer in states and looked rusty in the championship game

Yeah think a few boys are in the same position. Good club players but not cut out for county level. Anyone know what Mccullagh looking like for Lough after injury? Any of those young Fintona or Cookstown boys near it?

Alot of those Cookstown lads are or were u20 so they will be on the radar im sure, as for Fintona no one worthy of a call up for me, until they are tested in intermediate anyway.
Its hard to know, as said there is lots of quality club players who arent just up to county standards yet, but are these the guys who are on the supposed practice panel?

Unfortunately I think the boat has sailed on the two Donaghys - can't see them coming back having walked away last year when they were getting game time. If Tyrone had Cathal Donaghy at 10 and Conor O'Neill at 12 next year, Tyrone would be stronger for it.

Think Cathal left but I assumed Aodhan was struggling with injury. Appeared in the Armagh Ulster game but wasn't seen again
