I fancy Roscommon as this is an aging Tyrone team who struggled again st Longford. Roscommon have lot of youth on their side. Dono about playing the match in a sparcely filled Croke Park. Twill only be Roscommonand Tyrone supporters there til well after half time

You can be assured that the Kildare fans that are in Croker for your match will be shouting for yis. Great Roscommon crowd turned up against Cork last year and hopefully it will be the same this year. Hopefully its a Roscommon & Kildare double.

Jack L, name these aging tyrone players? most of the older guys are now on the bench. Tyrone did not struggle v Longford they beat them by 5pts & won pulling up the same Longford team beat Roscommon by 6pts remember.

will be shouting for yous hon the rossies!

Ross can win but they have to believe it and not fold in the second half. Ros hit the onion bag 3 times and yer home, take out the Dubs no problem after that

I hope i'm wrong as i would love to see the under dog win however i can't past a Tyrone win by 5 plus points.

Kilbride isnt fot for saturday. Massive loss.

where did you hear about kilbride is there any team news yet

I think that this is mind games. If he was injured then it would be kept quiet. Hopefully Tyrone will buy into it

Yeah Rosfan where did you hear this? says on the paper today he'll be fit

Best of luck to Fergie and the team! All kildare fans will be cheering for roscommon in the minor and senior this saturday ;)

Love the way the Dubs and Kildare ones are shouting for the Rossies, talk about being afraid of having to play Tyrone. Tyrone by 10 or so this Saturday, it will be a walk in the park

pplocal, Dublin people have always had a soft spot for Roscommon while Kildare have the Dermot Earley factor. Why would Dublin be afraid of Tyrone they beat them with ease last year while Kildare might not get over Donegal the same team that beat Tyrone twice this year.

He bruised a bone in his shoulder. I didnt mean he wont play he just will not be 100% fit. That is a loss as we need him at 100% for croker. We need all our forwards on song as Shine will be a marked man.

Beat them with ease? A lucky rebound off the post falling right in O'Gara's hands was the difference. We couldn't have asked for an easier route to the final this year

goodluck to roscommon this saturday wish ye the best of luck and hopefully will have some banter with ye come the quarter final

Is feidir linn ! Second year in a row in Croke Park for a young, developing Roscommon team. Fergal and the team have come so far since that wipe out against Mayo in 2009 and given us plenty of reasons to be proud. Hopefully tomorrow can be another major step with a performance of pride for the Rossies in Croke Park and we just might catch a Tyron team that are worrying about Dublin !
