I don't think he has the making of a full-forward at IC level.

They mite have another option at Full-Forward after tonight.

On a positive note Yes Positive. Just back from Level One Coaching course tonight which was full up with over 40 and plenty of clubs represented. Was at a Coaching seminar also last nite in the Kilmore which had well over a hundred people from probably every club in Cavan. Small steps but hopefully sooner rather than later we can start to see results from the work the Games Development team are doing.

u21s have any games this weekend??

Don't know but I see the challenge against Roscommon last Sunday turned out to be a 13 a-side game against Longford. Your club-man scored 5 points from wing-forward including 4 in the first 6 minutes.
Anybody heading to Omagh?

No, McKiernan.
Who you talking about at full-forward Boojangles?
Thomas Corr was playing and although he's reasonably tight he's not the solution to our problem is. Eoin Smith probably is but he's not playing for some reason.
I'm heading Celt Man. I'll be the lad applauding the Cavan scores. You should be able to spot me.

[Dougal]

i was told last week that mckiernan was injured and wouldnt kick a ball for at least a month.

[Lawrence of Knockbride]

Well he kicked at least one ball at least five times last week. 

[Dougal]

Tyrone 2-17 Cavan 1-4

A great confidence boost heading into the league.

Am I the only one thing Carr has made a serious f**k up of pre season sending out a team with effectively no 1st team players. He talked shite about regional games and they never happened and so instead he used the McKenna Cup for trials with embarrassing results. What good will this result be to new players?

From BBC Sport (since Aertel still has the score at 0-2 each, the score after 15 minutes, 1 hour after the match finihsed)

The throw-in for Tyrone's game against Cavan was delayed by 30 minutes because of fog at Healy Park.
Tyrone led by 1-8 to 0-3 at half-time, thanks to Donnelly's 33rd-minute goal and two points each from Niall McKenna and Eoin McCusker.
Donnelly added a second goal 15 minutes from the end as the Red Hands, with five members of the 2008 All-Ireland winning team on duty, ran out comfortable winners, despite Clarke's late goal.
Mattie Donnelly (0-3) and Peter Harte joined McKenna in the Tyrone half-forward line.

Myles I agree that the preparation of the panel was poor but he has most of last year's panel this year that's available to him but the colleges set-up has crippled us. Apart from Galligan and Lyng everybody else available was used.
I was at the game and in the second half it was pretty embaressing. One good point was Conor Smith who won a lot of ball but had no support as we basically were playing in our own half. Sean Brady was very poor at full-forward and will be lucky to stay on the panel in my opinion.

[tierworker blue]

Could'nt travel meself...did'nt sound pretty.
On a totally different subject, I heard that the great Mick Higgins passed away last night. It was told to me as a 'rumour' though...anyone have any better info on whether it's true or not?
