Replying To farneygael3:  "Monaghan by 4 or more. Roscommon are a provincial only team and May as well pack it in when that's done. Enda Smith out also"
I hope your right. Bottom line, we need to tighten up at the back significantly, mayo and armagh had it to easy at times. Also up front, woods garland carey have been doing alot of work off the ball but I'd love to see them tag a few points to there name to take the pressure off mc Carron ward bannigan. Hopefully we can really disturb the rossies kickouts like scotstown did in the last 20 in January. Monaghan to edge it

All three are expecting a good tight competitive contest be interesting to hear what all three would think now with the knowledge that Enda Smith is out injured the type of loss that could well swing this contest in Monaghan's favour now.

Anybody writing Monaghan off tomorrow are very foolish. It's certainly a game I'm worried about and not a game i wanted for Ros coming off a defeat. Monaghan are a team with alot of top class players throughout, Beggan, McCarron, O Hanlon, Bannigan, McCarthy, O'Toole all brilliant footballers. Ye boys have more heart than any team in Ireland and if its in the melting pot with 5 to go il be sweating! Enda missing for us is a huge loss, he's our leader over the last few years. I don't see there being more than 2/3 points in it either way. Hopefully we can dig it out but it'll be a hell of a battle! Looking forward to the trip up to Clones tomorrow and a good game of knockout championship football!
