Redrum you said any of the division 2 sides would struggle for points in the first division with the exception of Tyrone. crikey (Australia) - Posts: 355 - 09/02/2016 20:47:09 1824207 Link 0 |
I think quite a few Division 2 sides would pick up points in Division 1 this year, as some of the bigger sides like Kerry and Mayo look weaker in the early stages. GaryMc82 (Derry) - Posts: 3017 - 09/02/2016 21:51:44 1824244 Link 0 |

Ziggy bray didn't score apart from Down game last year in the league and I dont think at all in previous campaign, may have worked hard off the ball last two years but towards end of career he was diffinighly needed the ground to be harder. So I dont think he would have made a difference on the scorers board this year been a year older. And he would still maybe have continued islf used as a impact sub rather than starting as I and others had suggested, burn out I'm afraid. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 10/02/2016 17:57:42 1824494 Link 0 |
I could see the likes of Cavan, Fermanagh, Meath, Galway and maybe Laois have the ability to beat Down, Roscommon or possibly Kerry/Mayo in the early rounds of the National League. Hell some of those Ulster sides would have a fair crack at Monaghan, Cork and even Donegal. I don't think the gap is as wide as some make out.

The Fridge in fairness you can't judge us on one performance. We had control of that game until we conceded an og. Then ye had control for 25 mins partly assisted with the very dubious sending off of Paul Conroy. We are a work in progress witn most of our panel 24 or under with plenty of the 2013 u21 all ireland winners. in truth the game was won and lost when in a 10 min spell we had 4 wides and ye knocked over 3 points. Maybe that is the difference at the moment but I think we are quite close to Tyrone in terms of quality. kiloughter (Galway) - Posts: 1946 - 10/02/2016 19:19:41 1824536 Link 0 |
Thefridge. In fairness to you Donal Keogan and biggie (graham Reilly) are probably the only two lately that would make a division 1 side, I won't argue with that, but there is potential definitely with cillian o Sullivan (who I tip to be a great player) Newman is a enigma great first season injury hit then and he has never got near that highlight of year one, Rooney in midfield looks a good prospect but we only have one midfielder with Gillespie career hanging in the balance and Flanagan also out injured. Look we have injury worries, but I still think with a new voice on sideline we could be better than what we are. We are not Sam contending but we not as bad as we are showing either. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 10/02/2016 20:35:27 1824556 Link 0 |

The fridge. Its actually a nickname he got in primary school for been the tallest lad in his class by some distance. It stuck with him since . Bit like the Gooch , even all his teammates call him biggie. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 11/02/2016 10:52:05 1824615 Link 0 |
The fridge- Tyrone started with 2 from last years u21 side not the 7 Tomas O'Se claimed. Galway started with 6 of last years u21 side and brought on 2 subs who are u21 this year, the Galway team is a lot younger than Tyrone were on Sunday and a lot more inexperienced.

I saw Galway on Sunday and I felt they were a poor enough side.....Tyrone conceded 1-3 when Colm Cav was black carded and Tyrone had 7 U21's from last year on at them stage. Belclare1 (Galway) - Posts: 1626 - 11/02/2016 11:17:59 1824629 Link 0 |
Last year Meath where shocking against a poor Westmeath side. s goldrick (Cavan) - Posts: 5518 - 11/02/2016 11:24:53 1824632 Link 0 |
They were shocking in the last 20 minutes Goldrick. Quite a collapse. gotmilk (Fermanagh) - Posts: 4971 - 11/02/2016 12:05:40 1824651 Link 0 |
You are telling us you weren't shocked by what you were seeing in the second half of that match Goldrick? benched (Tyrone) - Posts: 534 - 11/02/2016 12:11:03 1824656 Link 0 |
As soon as biggie got the unfair black card (it was rescinded afterwards) Meath fell apart , he was the one everything was going through and McMahon was having a field day, but even in first half there was gaps in defense these weren't rectified in dressing room and when the major threat went, Westmeath could concentrate on going forward . royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 11/02/2016 12:38:04 1824666 Link 0 |
