Tyrone turned on a tremendous team performance on Tuesday night, 13th of February when convincingly defeating Monaghan in the semi-final of this season's Dr. McKenna Cup. Mickey Harte's side have definitely recovered their appetite for the game and some of the displays of the younger members of the squad shows the great 'strength in depth' of this present Tyrone side. However, on the night the real stars of the show were ace marksman Stephen O'Neill - he finished the sides top scorer with 1-5 and the evergreen Gerard Cavlan. Cavlan lined out in the midfield sector and was the dominating personality in that area. His positional sense, passing and all round play was worth the admission price on its own. He missed out on getting the 'man of the match' award, it went to Stephen O'Neill - but it must have been a close call! With Cavlan, O'Neill showing top form, and Dooher and Jordan coming back to the fray things are really looking up for this Tyrone side, and it must be a serious worry to many of their key opponents so early in the season.
