Armagh are at a shot to nothing. Rattle Clifford like today. OShea and Geaney don't like close attention.

Kerry MF poor. Derry dominated them in the air. Running on fumes.

Armagh have better subs than Derry.

The Kerry media mafia will be wheeled out to complain that those nasty northerners won't allow them to play their lovely football.

Clifford has not fired on all cylinders but we need to keep him quiet to have a chance. Geaney, Brosnan and Moynihan are flaky enough and we need to be more aggressive against Kerry rather than playing zonal stand offish defence since Kerry have a few players that can kick points from 40 metres out unlike Roscommon.

I'd put McCambridge on Clifford as he done well on him previously, he's on form and has the size and power to outmuscle him. Put Forker on Paudie Clifford and McKay on O'Shea. Quiten those 3 players and it will go a long way to winning the match.

I think Kelly will possibly go directly up against P Clifford.

Possibly so but even though he is lined out at no 6 I just think Kelly hasn't got the natural instincts of a defender. Maybe he might develop that given time but I'd put faith in Forker who relishes a duel.

Quote from: yellowcard on June 30, 2024, 04:49:20 PMKerry have a lot of very ordinary players, if Derry had taken their chances they could have beaten them.

Overall another poor spectacle in what was a bad weekend for Gaelic football in terms of entertainment. These new rule changes can't come quick enough as the game is in need of something drastic. Hurling is streets ahead.

The RTE pundits won't call it out though.
You mustn't watch RTE pundits often, they often do nothing but moan about the games. First two rounds of the round robin the only analysis was about the system being wrong. Then we'd a really good last round of games and there wasn't a word about it was the system that ensured there was so much riding on the last round!

There's actually been more poor games in the hurling championship this year than in a long time. That's one thing you'll never hear from RTE pundits. But it's not a competition between the codes, although Donal Og and a few others seem to think it is.

Last nights minor match has been better than most senior football games this year..
You're not actually going to bald face lie and tell us you watched it I take it? So the how the hell would you know what the standard was like? Can't imagine KK overly happy with their performance

Well sure congratulations so! ;D

Whose dummy account is this?

Armagh can't be formulating plans for marking Kerry's danger men,they've too many for us to cope with, they'll have to trust in the system. McCambridge looked good on Clifford in Tralee in last year's league game as we imposed a total blanket like Derry today (& lost by a point),

I was hoping we'd come out v our semi opponents and give it a lash as we really are very near our ceiling at this stage, Derry showed today that stifling can pay off, today's game should make us think we have a chance so I expect us to revert to the tried and tested rather than have a real go - hopefully I'm wrong and we go for it like Derry did last year v Kerry in the semi.

But if Gallagher was still in charge you'd think Derry probably beat Kerry today. Do the Derry natives think Harte gets another year?

Should have been gone before the westmeath game, got some reprieve because of very luckily overcoming Mayo but really doesn't deserve another year especially with the money he is on
What level of money is Harte on? I heard £100k+

Keep your hair on lad..

Watched the highlights and read the report. I'll still say the standard in football this year has been poor

Seen somewhere Louths "Senior football management expenses" were 120k and I doubt he took a paycut

I'd say he pays a fair bit of tax on that😂

Boyle Sports odds and I don't recall last four odds that close before.  Kerry's history,tradition and winning it in 2022 has them ahead of the rest but nothing between the final four in truth.

Kerry 4/5
Galway 9/2
Donegal 9/2
Armagh 9/2
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

No disrespect to Derry but I'm glad they're out.  It would have made a mockery of the competition that a team beat 3 times could go on and win it.

Would give Galway more respect than this. They look better than Donegal and ARE better than Armagh.

If they are better than Armagh then why in the last 3 meetings is it one win for Armagh and two draws? I'd say that they are much the same.
