Well, we have plenty of injury problems mounting up, but we need a win here to stay in the competition. Bear in mind of course that we play these lads in the first round of Ulster. We're well capable of beating them if we put in a performance with the same effort as the Down match. Anyone travelling up to it?

Is that the team for tonite? Not many changes apart from James and Barkey!! Pity as I would like to have seen a few more lads tried out before the Lge. These are the games to try them and settle on your best 15 or so. There were a few weaknesses evident on last Sun and I am not a believer in naming unchanged teams. It only covers up cracks or weaknesses. Hopefully we will get a win and who knows we might make the S/final. I suppose with the injured players and the college lads the panel is probably stretched!!

Half time Cavan 2-05 Armagh 1-05

Cavan made a great start and were 6 points up at one stage, conceded a soft goal and let Armagh right back into it. All to play for in the second half.

Well done Cavan. Good display, in particular McKiernan, Dunne and Mackey. And well done Armagh tv for the live streaming. Other county boards please note, in this time of renewed emigration.

McKiernan kicked some serious long range scores, it's great to have a free scoring midfielder, fair play to the lad, hopefully he can continue this level of form and even step it up. Dunne did very well for the second game running, our forward line should be built around him and Keating when he returns. Mossy Corr worked hard around the middle, Mackey kept himself busy.

Full back line lost concentration once or twice, that would be the only issue I'd have. They could not deal with Stefan Forker at all, who ended up MOTM. He needs to be watched very carefully in the Championship.

Stefan forker was well marshelled by james Morris in the u21s last year . we're lucky our forwards are playing well because with so many missing there is no decent forward to come on and a change the game. Thought mossy,mckeever,mackay,dj and Dec mckiernan worked very hard.some great scores by gearoid and dunne, James reilly was very solid in goals.good to see both seniors and u21s tackling from 15 out.

Well done Cavan, very good result, players worked very hard, game was played at a good pace for mckenna game. Geroid mckiernan is becoming some midfielder
cant wait to have rory dunne, david givney and eugene keating back.

Awful news, hope he has a speedy recovery. What game was that in?

Wish him well in recovery. On a brighter note it is finally great to see some progress with Cavan seniors. Even the older players are giving more such as Mackey and Corr. Long may it continue. Credit must be given to Terry and his team.

Panic over. Turns out someone on his account. Damn social networking.

Just seen that Dora, thank God for that. A small county like us can't afford any injuries to key players.
