Donegal to retain our status as Kings of Ulster and cement our place as the Ulster team of the decade. Donegal to win by 3 points after a titanic challenge from a gallant Cavan team. Lifford Gael (Donegal) - Posts: 1925 - 22/06/2019 22:04:52 2198735 Link
My heart says Cavan...... My head says....... CAVAN! I'm gonna go for a two point win for the Bréifne men, inspired by our illustrious past, driven by the most passionate fans in Ireland, and motivated by Ireland's best up and coming manager. Here's hoping for title 40! C'MON YOU BOYS IN BLUE! Ned_Stormcrow (Cavan) - Posts: 1071 - 22/06/2019 22:14:47 2198743 Link

Replying To MuckrossHead: "A big factor in Donegal's tactical improvement, especially against Tyrone, has to go down to Rochford. He seems to have added a dimension that was missing & there is now a top class backroom team under Declan. I will be very interested in seeing how Donegal set up against Cavan who are, tactically, a very different challenge to Tyrone. I don't think we will need Hugh playing the sweeper role he was so effective in against Cavan as they are unlikely to feed as much early ball into big full forwards & it will be intriguing to see how he will be used. Getting excited about this team, but trying to keep a hat on it at the same time. Not easy!" I hear ya but past experience has taught me to keep some control. panamasam (Australia) - Posts: 2779 - 23/06/2019 00:34:51 2198791 Link
Safe travels to both sets of supporters. Really looking forward to it and expecting a great atmosphere among supporters. Hopefully the weather will remain ok. panamasam (Australia) - Posts: 2779 - 23/06/2019 01:29:29 2198800 Link
Best of luck to Cavan in this one. I know we are traditionally rivals but I remember 2013 and a lot of Cavan people happy we ended our drought that day so hoping they get a similar outcome in clones this afternoon. Donegal are a good bunch also but another ulster wouldnt mean as much to them. Lads like Cian Mackey killian Clarke deserve a day in the sun and an Ulster medal. seanie08 (Monaghan) - Posts: 1798 - 23/06/2019 06:48:42 2198816 Link
Best of luck to cavan today I really hope you can do it after our disappointment last night footininja (Monaghan) - Posts: 43 - 23/06/2019 10:39:01 2198873 Link
A great occasion in Clones. But Donegal will win this easily enough. A 6 or 7 point win for them. galwayford (Galway) - Posts: 2517 - 23/06/2019 13:42:11 2198943 Link
Game over. Donegals kick outs are unbelievably good. They are an excellent defensive/counter attacking team. If Cavan get hammered they will find it difficult to raise themselves for next match. The_Fridge (Tyrone) - Posts: 2088 - 23/06/2019 14:34:36 2198967 Link
Murphy is a great player but he gets away with murder he's never sent off , that was a red card all day long it was very dirty . clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 23/06/2019 14:37:31 2198969 Link
Donegal are very good it's another level for this Cavan team , Donegal as I've said before have blistering pace all over their team it's massive in today's game. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 23/06/2019 14:38:36 2198970 Link
Would someone please tell McVeety to stop running into 8 Donegal men and getting turned over. Does he not realise that Donegal have 14 men back, especially clogging up the middle. The_Fridge (Tyrone) - Posts: 2088 - 23/06/2019 14:41:02 2198974 Link
Replying To clondalkindub: "Donegal are very good it's another level for this Cavan team , Donegal as I've said before have blistering pace all over their team it's massive in today's game." I honestly think they are dublin's biggest threat. Very impressed with some of the new lads when they beat us this year. Jack_Goff (Meath) - Posts: 2920 - 23/06/2019 14:52:07 2198976 Link
Replying To clondalkindub: "Donegal are very good it's another level for this Cavan team , Donegal as I've said before have blistering pace all over their team it's massive in today's game." If I were a Dub I'd fear Donegal too - they're strong, pacy, accurate and they wouldn't fear Dublin. The biggest threat to the drive for 5 that I have seen this year. baire (Galway) - Posts: 1785 - 23/06/2019 14:55:15 2198978 Link
Replying To Jack_Goff: "I honestly think they are dublin's biggest threat. Very impressed with some of the new lads when they beat us this year." Dublin would beat Donegal and beat them well. It's Tyrone mark 2. Exact same tactics. Dublin know how to play against this and more importantly beat this kind of system. The_Fridge (Tyrone) - Posts: 2088 - 23/06/2019 15:03:10 2198980 Link
Replying To The_Fridge: "Dublin would beat Donegal and beat them well. It's Tyrone mark 2. Exact same tactics. Dublin know how to play against this and more importantly beat this kind of system." Dublin play the same system as DL and others in most of their games, it just doesn't suit the Dublin media to admit it. baire (Galway) - Posts: 1785 - 23/06/2019 15:16:11 2198986 Link
Replying To clondalkindub: "Murphy is a great player but he gets away with murder he's never sent off , that was a red card all day long it was very dirty ." Not at all. Accidental follow through. I was even wondering if it deserved a yellow but yellow was the right call. PoolSturgeon (Galway) - Posts: 1902 - 23/06/2019 15:17:06 2198987 Link
