Tyrone County Football and Hurling

[Under Lights]

I forgot to mention T McCann who was excellent as well, especially according to one or two on here he's not good enough to be on the team. It wasn't Sean Cavanagh's best game missing a few chances but still think he was involved well and his driving run nearly sent Brennan through for a goal. He also comes out and can compete well around the middle. He'll be disappointed with his finish for the first goal chance.

Just think if Ciaran McGinley hadn't have went away due to work commitments there would be no such thing as T McCann.

He would have just ceased to exist?

Made me smile too...not sure when Mayo will release him to come and live in Tyrone Fuzzman, but I'm not sure our defence needs him at the minute, I was happy enough yesterday.

Apparently he decided after his close encounters with Sean last August that we could find him a wife and a job minding sheep and he would eventually win his Celtic Cross.
Instead he put on Charlie Mulgrew against his old team and totally confused poor Donegal.

So "McNamee pooped up further up the field a lot."

I'm glad he doesn't shit on his own doorstep 

Would agree with most of your player summaries there though I thought Morgans kick outs were excellent bar one that went over the line.

I think Conal McCann was a bit lost yesterday to be honest and didn't really get into the game.
I'd like to see him do well as I think he's usually good for a few scores.
That is the biggest positive and hope for me that we have a huge amount of players who can kick good points from far out and so we are not over reliant on any one or two players any more. Some say this is our problem that we don't have a clutch player any more but in todays highly defensive systems if your top forwards are held scoreless then if you can't get scores from elsewhere you are in trouble.

I think our FF line now is no longer really used for getting scores. Mattie and Sean mainly play out the field and yesterday Bradley was used to keep two Donegal defenders busy covering his runs while we played ball out the field.

Woops ..... lol

The Morgan thing is a personal preference, I just think he is prone to a brain fart. Although maybe he has matured a little this year, as he has done well..

Exactly. Conall would have been the eldest in the house. Heir to the farm.

Morgan's kick outs were fantastic, looks like he'll be the number one now. However, it's great to have such good competition with Mickey waiting in the wings. Like the 00s again with Packie and John.

One thing Morgan is highly underrated on is how commanding he is under the high ball, made 3 or 4 excellent interventions on Sunday when hanging balls dropped into the box.

Morgan and Mark Anthony McGinley gave
an exhibition of goalkeeping on Sunday.

Still feel yer man Beggan is the top of the pile and
even ahead of cluxton

Agree regarding Beggan, his free taking into the wind against Cavan was phenomenal!

[Fuzzman]

We noticed on Sunday in the warm up how the Donegal keeper was practising punching high balls out to the corner back position and he did one of these during the match. It must be a tactic not to catch it in the box and be under pressure but to punch it clear out to the already waiting corner back.

I thought Morgan did well on Sunday with his kickouts and that punch away where he hurt himself but did he actually make it good saves? Once the ball hit off his chest which he did well to block but I wouldn't have particular said he had showed a great exhibition of goal keeping. He has matured a bit though and doesn't seem to get involved as much.

McGinley had to make a lot more saves and did so even though most were hit at him.
Beggan's free taking as improved hugely and he's a massive presence in the goals.

I watched the game again last night and I still can't decide did Tiernan mean to score his goal like that or did he miss hit it. He did well to side step the keeper and not just blast it at him like Sean and Brennan did.

Had to be a miss hit. Nobody tries to kick the ball like that!
