Looking forward to this one. Kerry looked pretty awsome the last day out a team full of house hold names. Tyrone are still a bit of an unknown quantity and I find it interesting that people make remarks like they are not as good as the previous team etc. There are a lot of similarities to the 03 side in that they had a few of the exceptional talents of the side from the 90's canavan, Dooher and cavlan mixed in with young hungry players who had known a lot of sucess at underage and Harte at the helm. I think Tyrone 2015 might just surprise a few people in AISF and Kerry may not just be as good as there facial win over Kildare made them out to be its easy to look outstanding against a team which had raised the white flag early on. It will be interesting to see just how good their half forward line and midfield are when they are under the pressure that Tyrone will subject them to. Kerry's fullback line is a little suspect to fast moving forwards.

There are no similarities to the 2003 team. Maybe 3 of this team would get on it. The Mahon's and Cavanagh

Mattie Donnelly would get on it and on any team in the Country... why he wasn't MOTM at the weekend I'll never know. I like O'Se but his last few MOTM selections have been dodgy!

Thats a value judgement made with hindsight after the younger members of the 03 team went on to win 3 All Irelands it remains to be seen what the current crop can achieve.

Other then Mattie Donnelly nothing exceptional in my view. Full back Mc Nabb  is a good player but he's too intent on becoming a hatchet man. Forwards are good but again no Stephen O Neills there.

McNamee is the full back. McNabb plays at WHB.
Both good players
I can only please one person per day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look good either

If you look back at Tyrone over the years they done a lot without Stephen O'Neill. With the Modern game it is a must that any of the 20 men used on the day of a match should be able to hit scores. The first class forward is not relied on any more.

ONeill

I'll tell ye one thing about this Tyrone side - they'll be loving the backlash. Mickey Harte does the everyone hates us mentality better than anyone in the game.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

No doubt about that at all. He'll be lapping this all up and telling the team how the whole of Ireland wants them beat (it won't be a lie either).

I just think they are a step below the top 3 (I think Donegal are gone now) and this will be a bridge too far. Should they get past Kerry who knows what would happen... I just hope it doesn't!

You'd have won one all ireland at most without him.

You don't score goals easily. You will be struggling to  outpoint Kerry. They have more players capable of putting the ball over the bar then you do. If you want to beat them you'll need at least one goal and probably two.

Mc Curry and Mc Aliskey get 70% of their scores from frees. And that's due to the system you use with a lot of short passing. Mc Cann doesn't score much - centre forward the same. Kerry, Mayo and Dublin get plenty of scores from their half forwards.

That's why I don't think Tyrone will win.

One thing's for certain, Tyrone are going to spring some surprises for the semi-final and perhaps they might even spring the biggest surprise of all and not spring any surprise.

Interesting that a team relegated from Division 1 who've been fairly rubbish up until Sunday are now not a kick in the arse away from 2003 greatness! Wise up.

The bandwagon is rolling but she'll surely have to be stopped so the wagons can be circled for the media / public opinion onslaught.

Tyrone certainly wont be afraid of Kerry but they appear under the delusion that Kerry will be afraid of them?

GJL

Kerry may or may not be afraid but RTE will be sh1tting themselves at the prospect of Tyrone getting into the final!
