Replying To Eddie the Exile:  "Whisper it quietly but I think Derry might actually have a stronger first XV than Armagh. However, if Armagh do get ahead by 8 -10 points in the Ulster Final, which is more than possible, there's no way they will let that slip against a team like Monaghan. The key for Monaghan will be to stay with Armagh for 60 minutes and have something in reserve down the stretch.
Matchups, matchups, matchups- huge work to do for GB and co in the next few days."
If you go individually player for player combined 15 I agree Derry would match up pretty well with Armagh. But that doesn't account for how well Armagh are set up as a team, their depth and their winning experience. They may not have the ulster championships to show for it, but they were all Ireland champions in 24, and they've lost very few championship games in regular time in recent years. Derry are a fragile team, with a complete lack of leadership or accountability, no other team in the same Maguire gives up that lead. Never mind 11 points, if Armagh go 5 or 6 up against Monaghan there's no chance
