352247 The only chance that complacency could have beaten Tyrone is gone now, because from here in it's all business. They lose, they're gone, and they'll probably be playing one of the bigger teams next time out anyway.

That leaves pace. Cork or even Dublin may trouble them with their strong runners from deep. I expect Cork or Tyrone to win it outright.

Yeah but complacency in 2007 say an average enough Meath team beat them. So complacency is always there in every game until the 80th minutes of All-Ireland final day.

I don't think complacency will be an issue. We have enough experience to overcome that. However, I do not think that this will be a canter for Tyrone. I would suggest that any of Cork, Kerry, Dublin, Mayo and Galway are more than capable of beating Tyrone on any given day. I would say that Cork and Mayo are the two teams that Tyrone could struggle with. Mayo have always caused Tyrone problems and played a mighty game in Castlebar in the NFL. Cork have also historically given Tyrone their fill of it. The other three on their day can also beat anyone so I do not understand why pundits are all suggesting Tyrone will cakewalk to the title. Yes we are as good as any out there at the moment and better than most but I think it is more open than people think. The good thing I believe is that the Tyrone panel are aware of this and that as usual they will give their all to win another SAM.

I know exactly what you said, no need to get aggressive! You missed my point. Why use 6 years as a benchmark?

Pace and complacency will beat Tyrone?


Good to know?? we can match any team for complacency including tyrone - Might struggle for pace though

Well I think that winning Sam last year will have brought that team on so much more than '05 or '03, they just seem to have a strong panel of grounded, focussed lads, the way they'll be beaten is by someone else outsmarting them, like they did to Kerry last year.

Erm, the original poster Derfil1 referred to the current Tyrone team as overrated, who, under Mickey Harte, have won three all-irelands:


Tyrorne are overrated. They've maybe 3 class players and the rest are just workhorses. Either one of Dublin or Kildare will send them home this year given the chance.

Duh.

When you say that Cork have historically given Tyrone their fill of it shall we put that into context, Tyrone & Cork have met ONCE in 125 years of championship history, the AI semi in 1973, where a Jimmy Barry-Murphy inspired Cork steamrollered a Tyrone team making their first appearance at Croke park in 20 years. Today the tables have turned and now Tyrone are top dogs, that said Cork are probably the one team that I would fear playing, simply due to the 'unknown' factor.

Kildare will have a bit too much pace and physical force for the Tyrone old guard.

Not sure why certain people are predicting Tyrones down fall will be due to lack of pace. They are up there with the fittest in the country. Dooher is 34 years of age. . and can beat any back in Ireland? Is this down to Pace?
Also Davy Harte and Philip Jordan are hardly zimmer frame material.
