Pete McGrath expects Sean Quigley to come in for close attention from Roscommon next weekend after his 14-point haul for Fermanagh in yesterday's All-Ireland qualifier Round 2A victory over Antrim.

"His accuracy and his coolness under pressure was very good. We all know how talented he is and he will realise when you score 14 points you've got to be ready for a bit more attention," the Fermanagh manager told the Belfast Telegraph.

McGrath felt there was a lot more attacking football on show than when the Ernesiders faced Antrim in the Ulster SFC quarter-final five weeks ago.

"When you are playing a team you have played before there is always baggage," he continued.

"But today there was great positivity in the way the team played, great fluency, some great scores, some great moves and at no stage in the second half did we look like we were going to be caught.

"Defensively we were quite secure today and quite strong and organised. Once you have that, you have a good base. Once you have that, the movement and support play and the fact the scores came readily gave us a good platform to build on and play even better."

"There were aspects of today's display that were not good - the final ball there, we could have had three or four goal chances there today if there was better option-taking. That's the type of things you have to nail against the better teams."
