I think Monaghan are shagged and Tyrone will shut down their danger men.
Monaghan have had a great year but think it's curtains today boys.

Looking forward to this game...nothing against Tyrone but really hope Monaghan win.

Logic tells me Tyrone will win this because they're conditioned at Dublin style levels and they're peaking at the right time. But something is gnawing at me as regards Monaghan, thinking they'll come through this because they're at the latter stages of a long journey as a squad and it's now or never I feel.

Would like to see Monaghan in an All Ireland Final for the uniqueness of it but can only see a Tyrone win today.

Got sky sports this year for the first time. A much better more thoughtful and researched team.
RTÉ commentary team woul just put you to sleep.
Hope to see Monaghan win for a better final, but am thinking Tyrone will shade it.

Monaghan great up to final third but getting crowded out. But both sides have some lovely long range kicking. Just wish ref would keep up with the speed of the game. So much pulling and dragging shudder to think what last 10 minutes going to be like if tight game. But Tyrone have the edge here.

Half time honestly don't know what to make of that , Monaghan started very poorly but have had the best goal chances , I know Monaghan like to be patient in possession but they are running into corners and impact too often Tyrone started off brilliant very economical but have allowed Monaghan back into the game by sitting to deep , not a great half however some outrageous distance point scoring

Good close game. Tyrone a 2nd half team. I fancy them to get through by 5 points or more.

Pulling and dragging all over the place and probably should have been 3 black cards in the first 15 mins. Both teams resorting to long range efforts. 11 wides from Tyrone. McManus proving again that he knows where the posts are. Only difference between these teams is the speed of transition. Monaghan at snail's pace and Tyrone like a hare but Tyrone missing shots all over the place. Monaghan could have had a goal or two as well. Close game but poor quality.

Will someone deprogramme or reboot that Dessie Dolan for the love of God. He's stuck on the 'he'll be disappointed with that' line.

Some poor decisions by ref , Monaghan keeper blatantly takes forward out of it , McManus free given against him for 50-50 , then a blatant black card for Tyrone for foul on McCarty, strange

Jeeeze

Monaghan playing right in Tyrone's hands

Ridiculous stuff from Monaghan. Let's just keep running into two/three man tackles and hope for a different outcome

Very poor, and same old problem for Tyrone really poor wides.

Absolutely nothing on show here to boast about it be worried about

Some poor calls going Tyrone's way.

Very disappointing stuff from Monaghan in particular. Do they think running into swarm tackles against TYRONE is a good idea?

This is a substandard Ulster Championship match at best.

Big bit of gamesmanship on Rory Beggans kicks , Tyrone player running across his line starting his run just as free taker starts his
