Replying To Game2Halves: "Don't feel too bad Kildare fans, it wasn't Meath you played today. You played what prob is second best team in ireland. We beat Dublin in croke park this year in the league with plenty to spare. Tyrone will go all way to semi final at least if not lift sam for fourth time. They showed a real lack of interest in Ulster but always have their eye on main prize. I think they like qualifiers because of all the games they get, better than winning province and sitting around for weeks." Getting way way ahead of yourself Today you saw a kildare team that just weren't interested ,with no media attention to galvanise a sustained effort. Last year they went to war This year was an expected shambles BeJasus (UK) - Posts: 383 - 29/06/2019 22:48:42 2202610 Link

Guys, there are only a few teams that can actually play ball and the gap is growing between them and the rest . The defeated provincial finalists! I'm sorry but would be no threat on any given day to the top dogs of Tyrone, Dublin, Kerry and maybe a full strength mayo side or what looks like a rejuvenated Donegal outfit. Tyrone will be in super 8's without question . In a knock out game, only the above teams could beat Tyrone and Tyrone would hammer all the rest. There are a lot of bad sides around unable to compete, the gap is growing between them and the elite few counties. Kind of makes whole thing predictable. I'm bit unsure about Donegal, i seriously cannot rate them yet. I really believe Tyrone took the hit and threw caution to the wind, in a knock out scenario I could not see Donegal beating Tyrone. Tyrone are very good at getting their act together in a potentially season ending game. Either way it's again all about Dublin, Kerry, Tyrone, Mayo and also Donegal potentially. The rest are miles away from making any kind of impact.. Game2Halves (Tyrone) - Posts: 265 - 29/06/2019 23:48:16 2202636 Link

The fact of the matter is Tyrone lost all their recent big games badly. Ulster final 2019, dead duck performance in the AI last year and semi in 2017. You're forgetting one major thing this team is a shadow of Tyrone 2003-08. Beating Dublin in the league this year means nothing as they are trying to stay fresh for the 5 in a row.

They lost the game and they definitely don't like losing to Donegal in Ulster or any other time so please don't pretend they weren't up for it. That's a laugh. Another meeting would be great, hopefully it happens! Donegal_abroad (Donegal) - Posts: 1321 - 30/06/2019 08:40:53 2202692 Link
Replying To KildareKelly: "Good luck to Tyrone anyway. Don't see any of the four provincial final losers beating them." Meath will. Enjoy the summer holidays and the league next year. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 30/06/2019 08:57:45 2202696 Link

Replying To Joxer: "It just goes to show how poor Kildare and Meath are all the same. They keep moaning about Dublin being in Leinster but the reality is that neither of these counties have raised their levels. Both would be second tier in any other province. Tyrone are a fit team and I think that was key today. They had it easy against a less fit team who let them have possession in their own half, who broke slowly on the counter and who resorted to aimless shots from around the 45. No top team comes to the party with those suicidal ingredients. Good win for Tyrone. If they landed in Dublin's group they could get to the semis but think they would struggle in the other half of the draw." Ahh 12 months ago Tyrone needed the help of a red to get out of navan with a 1 point win in extra time after game been drawn. Do you actually look into results before posting??? royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 30/06/2019 09:05:49 2202701 Link

Tyrone are building up a nice head-of-steam and will be a danger to any of the 'big' teams neverright (Roscommon) - Posts: 1648 - 30/06/2019 09:49:39 2202715 Link
Replying To royaldunne: "Ahh 12 months ago Tyrone needed the help of a red to get out of navan with a 1 point win in extra time after game been drawn. Do you actually look into results before posting???" Yes and 12 months is a long time in Gaelic football. Moral victories such as a 1 point loss in Navan count for nothing except perhaps a perception that a team is progressing. Tyrone would hammer Meath in Croke Park. Meath and Kildare are still some way behind the tier 1 teams in championship. That's the reality just now. Joxer (Dublin) - Posts: 4700 - 30/06/2019 10:24:23 2202731 Link
Kildare are an up and coming team. They will be around for the next few years and will do well. galwayford (Galway) - Posts: 2522 - 30/06/2019 10:47:58 2202754 Link

Laois - another county in the doldrums....your just filling up a fixture before you inevitably get tanked by a top team. But sure its a day out for everyone isn't it? You have to laugh at the lesser counties crying about Dublin dominance and all the money, blah blah. Tyrone hardly get a penny and would hammer all teams in Leinster apart from Dublin but we'd still give them a game of it. Take Dublin out of Leinster? Split Dublin in two, how about just trying to improve structure within your own counties first and sorting out your own internal affairs.... cacsmckilly (Tyrone)* - Posts: 1294 - 30/06/2019 10:53:35 2202761 Link

Would be glad to avoid Cavan & Galway. I would be quite happy to see Meath having the chance to avenge last year. Byanthon (Tyrone) - Posts: 1780 - 30/06/2019 11:18:21 2202775 Link
Replying To ta32: "You had that spot on fair play to you" Tyrone played well, Kildare didn't perform. I still think Tyrone are over rated when some tip them as possible All Ireland champions. bdbuddah (Meath) - Posts: 1361 - 30/06/2019 11:51:41 2202787 Link
Replying To royaldunne: "I want Tyrone in next round. Mickey will be saying the rosary before it's over." In fairness Meath is probably the handiest draw in the next round. You were absolutely awful last weekend and I can't see you posing any of the remaining qualifiers any trouble at all. bigboon (Tyrone) - Posts: 50 - 30/06/2019 12:01:18 2202791 Link

Only for all our forwards to have a brain fart in Leinster final they score would have been a lot closer. So either we have progressed or dubs have regressed. Anyway it wasn't a moral victory, Meath don't do moral victories. We were put out cause of the ref. Not cause we lost the game. It happens we move on and look forward to hopefully getting Tyrone and a fair ref. Nothing more than that can we ask. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 30/06/2019 12:03:20 2202794 Link
