Armagh Club football & hurling

[brokencrossbar1]

Good to see Armagh lads lending their services to NY football this summer, Jamie Clarke, Ciaran Mc Keever and Brendan Donaghy have sanctions passed to play for Leitrim in NY.

Bejayus. Our own David O'Gara is over with Leitrim too. Maybe Leitrim NY can play in the Connacht championship instead of the original one!

The real thing lasted longer than the Rossies!!!!!

r clarke played full forward and scored 2 tasty points
great to see

could he stake a last minute claim for thechampionship

Full match??

no wasnt full game
he is getting eased in but looking ok
next 4/5 weeks will see him playing at least 7 club games

Are you talking about ronan clarke, the young player of the year, an excellant footballer back in 2002 when truthfully the team were very lucky to take SAM north.

In what way were they lucky ?

Maghery beat whitecross by 4 points
Nab beat clans by 8 points

Tonight in the SFC

[bennydorano]

Ogs won 3.16 to 8
Cross won 2.12 to 2.7

2.7 to 2.6 with 10 to go and Johnny Hanratty got a Red - we dared believe, but Cross stepped it up a bit, we missed another gilt edged goal chance late on to draw it level.  Cross deserving winners but I thought Harps played very well, played some great football, footered about a bit too much in the first half and didn't get the shots off when we were ascendant.  We've undoubtedly the makings of a good team.

When was the draw made,

is there another for the semis?

Last night, and as far as I know there is.

For what it's worth I reckon the winners will be

Maghery v Crossmaglen - Tie of the round. Maghery have beat Cross convincingly in the league and will be confident of beating them in champ. That said I think Cross mgmt will have sounded out Maghery as potential threats to them retaining their crown and may have fielded a weakened side in that game. Even if it is close I'd expect the 50/50 calls to go the way of Cross.

Dromintee/St Pat's v Culloville - Whoever wins Dromintee/Pats should account for Culloville, who by all accounts were awful against an even worse Clann Eireann side. Be a close game nonetheless however I feel those two teams have too much for Culloville.

Pearse Og v Ballymacnab - Ogs will win this hands down. Ballymacnab's MF and FB line are suspect in my opinion and won't be able to cope with the power Pearse Og have all over the pitch. (and on the bench). Ballymacnab when they got going against Clans were outstanding but I can't see them getting that same freedom afforded to them against the Ogs.

Carrickcruppen v Sarsfields - Tough enough call but I feel if Sarsfield's continue their league form they should beat a Cruppen side who laboured to a facile win over Junior League candidates Newtown. Sarsfield's in attack always seem to score plenty of goals which should swing this tie in their favour.

I reckon you have that about right Fitzroyalty, but there is always a surprise somewhere in the championship
