Was laughed at a few months ago in heresaying Truagh would get to the final this year and probably have the best chance to put it up against Scotstown. Wondering if the same boys are still laughing at it now….. unitedparishes (Monaghan) - Posts: 14 - 04/10/2026 19:16:40 2696139 Link

Wondering if the same boys are still laughing at it now….." Truagh are a good team, the clare player is a class act Mark counihan to bury a few demons in two weeks. Scotstown looked edgy today 222 (UK) - Posts: 973 - 04/10/2026 19:57:16 2696143 Link
Replying To Farneyarmy2013: "But sure who else has beat Scotstown it's been complete domination for the last 15 years. Ballybay are now gone. Clontibret are in a stage of transition. Truagh along with Iniskeen are the only teams in Monaghan capable of putting up some sort of game to Scotstown. Truaghs problem as I said is consistency. But I belive if they meet Scotstown at the buisness end they will run them close." I said that a month ago. I belive Truagh will sicken Scotstowns. Big around the middle and have a mix of everything. Louis Kelly and Ronan Boyle good man markers and dangerous fowards up front. If Truagh are to win they can't give any soft frees outside the arc. Can't be breaching after that I think their capable of providing a shock. Farneyarmy2013 (Monaghan) - Posts: 84 - 04/10/2026 20:11:26 2696146 Link
Where's Big McPhilips for Scotstown. Am assuming hes injured. They upped it today when it wss put up to them but some of their players have a fair bit of mileage and if the two Jones had of been fit might been a differeht outcome. Truagh look like sort of side who will give them plenty of problems good fo see Mohan and Kelly back fit. Id still fancy Scotstown for theur experience. Beggan is some player to have in county football let alone club football. seanie08 (Monaghan) - Posts: 2036 - 04/10/2026 21:42:20 2696162 Link
Scotstown and Inniskeen play out the same game every year, same outcome again this year. Inniskeen really need all their best players when playing scotstown, they effectively used an 18 man panel in the championship. Not easy for a small village who were missing two talents like the jones brothers from the start. Truagh match up well with scotstown, their big men in the middle will be able to get at Beggans kickouts, which I think have been shaky at times under the new rules. Scotstown should have too much for them though, the young players were very mature today, I thought mccaffery in particular was immense for a lad with another year of u20 eligibility.
