So current standings are pretty accurate? Pity about some teams not being able to field full strength due to injuries and U21. Especially if your team has 4 or 5 players playing U21 as well. crikey (Australia) - Posts: 355 - 01/03/2016 19:32:30 1829895 Link 0 |
Of the three teams Tyrone have played whilst both Galway and Laois came with strong finishes it was Cavan that caused them most problems and Cavan were very unlucky to lose. Another narrow defeat to Derry the following game meant Cavan had lost two from two but it may not have been a fair reflection. Cavan play a defensive system but I think they may go well for the rest of the league season. Byanthon (Tyrone) - Posts: 1780 - 02/03/2016 09:55:42 1829993 Link 0 |
Two things we seemed to lack in recent years is the apparent conditioning deficiency compared to the top few teams as well as the lack of a defensive strategy. I have noticed a lot of our guys from the all Ireland winning u21 team of 2011 and particularly the 2013 team really starting to catch up in this regard. I still have concerns about our defence in the sense that we should not have conceded the own goal against Tyrone and the two against Derry were very soft. However we are making progress. I get the sense from a few Tyrone posters that Tyrone are in 2nd gear and if needed they can up it. This may be so but it strikes a little convenient even in light of their impressive championship run last season. Many would not regard Galway as a threat and it is hard to argue given that we have been a bit stagnant for a few years now. However I have noticed green shoots with average resources but plenty of talent and with the Rossies going well the gap in Connacht could reduce a lot quicker than people think. kiloughter (Galway) - Posts: 1947 - 02/03/2016 16:13:14 1830173 Link 0 |
Byanthon maybe Ulster teams in general cause Tyrone more problems. crikey (Australia) - Posts: 355 - 02/03/2016 21:58:32 1830271 Link 0 |

Byanthon - You must be very happy then because we play Derry in Ulster with the winners playing Armagh or cavan for a place in the Ulster final. Both Donegal and Monaghan are on the other side of the draw. TyroneUltra (Tyrone) - Posts: 307 - 03/03/2016 13:09:26 1830384 Link 0 |

Galway as usual my own county are in consistent but we do have very dangerous forwards..1-18 is superb scoring against any Derry team and to have 4 points on the board at this stage is pleasing we are a team building for the future and I think Connacht football on general is of good quality at the moment.We let Tyrone physically dominate us for a spell and even Laois(another big team)did that late on in Portlaoise but our full forward line will trouble any county this year.

Regarding Fermanagh, they seem to always struggle against Armagh, crikey (Australia) - Posts: 355 - 05/03/2016 20:26:08 1831023 Link 0 |

What happened to Armagh? I didn't see that one coming. Credit to Cavan though. Never like to see any team get a hammering. crikey (Australia) - Posts: 355 - 05/03/2016 21:07:32 1831036 Link 0 |
Cavan played very well, but Armagh simply don't look like a team with any belief. Cavan will be strong contenders for promotion now. I'd expect Armagh to go down, no heart or spirit in them. Ned_Stormcrow (Cavan) - Posts: 1071 - 05/03/2016 21:29:04 1831037 Link 0 |
Cavan could be a dark horse for Ulster : going really well . TheRightStuff (Donegal) - Posts: 1688 - 05/03/2016 21:51:11 1831040 Link 0 |
With a bit of luck and proper refereeing Cavan could have been on 8 points now and leading the Division. Cavan_Slasher (Cavan) - Posts: 10253 - 05/03/2016 21:53:10 1831042 Link 0 |
