I was not at it and I don't comment on games I don't see. That has alway's been my way and it will not change. By the way I am being very conservative with my comments for if I I wrote what I am thinking I would upset the majority of the posters on here truth to be told. Stop getting carried away try and look at the games and be open minded. If you only watch the Blue and white you cannot give an unbiased opinion it's that simple.

The scoreboard doesn't reflect the hammering we got. Our named inside forward line scored 0-1 between them. Look at any other results over the weekend and see the scoring ratio of the name inside forward line on any team this weekend.
That will give you an idea of where we are at scoring wise.
Our subs scored 2-3 between them so the question has to be asked about team selection.
The stats don't lie.
We were off the pace from the word go. Every fisted point Donegal got could have been a shot at goal if they needed it.
Centre half back Clarke picking up Murphy left us open and vulnerable through the middle.
We need to play to our strengths and not get obsessed about the opposition.
Changing the full forwardline before throw in back fired big time.
Super 8s would give us good competitive games at a higher level and can only be of benefit in the long run.

I'm almost certain it's the same this year.

We still wouldnt have beaten them but we would have stayed in the game for longer than 20 minutes.
As a result, the game was over at half time. I suspect Madden and mackey would have been even more influential in the 2nd half if they knew they had something to play for!

A good chunk of the Donegal team were on the Donegal U21 team in 2017 that hammered Cavan in Enniskillen. Jamie Brennan, McMenanim, Gallagher, McGee, Langán,. McGee was only 19 then and looked more conditioned then any of the Cavan players

We all know there was an exodus under McGleenan, Mickey has done sterling work to get the panel back together again.

Bit of perspective here lads. We are a young team, as in young in development under Mickey Graham. We will need 2 - 3 years of strength and conditioning to match what Donegal brought to the table yesterday in physicality. however the only way we will do this is to keep this squad together and not have the same turnover of players we have had over the last 3 - 4 years. Very positive this year under Mickey Graham. You have to remember he is still finding his feet at this level and it is a very steep learning curve. i'd be very optimistic for the future.
Cutler (Cavan) - Posts: 16 - 24/06/2019 10:49:04 2199727
Cavanshambles ,If there was such an exodus of players under McGleenan how is it that 12 of the 18 players who played against Donegal in 2018 also featured yesterday and this doesn't include Killian Brady who was on the bench yesterday or Martin Reilly who was injured in 2018.Just who or how many players exactly did Mickey entice back??
Cutler, as for the huge turnover of players, 13 of the players that featured in the losing semi final v Tyrone in 2016 featured yesterday with another 2 unused subs. and of the other 5 players used that day I believe R Dunne,T Corr,E Keating retired from inter county football, D Givney in London and not too sure about F Flanagan .So for anyone to say we have a huge turnover of players is totally misleading.
What we have now is a strong core of 25/26 year olds with the experience of many seasons of inter county football, along with Mackey,Reilly & R Galligan, to which the young up and coming lads like Conor Brady,Pierson,Rehill , T Galligan can gel with and learn. We've come a long way in the last 6/7 years and hopefully Mickey can take us to the next level and the super 8's and given time maybe that elusive Anglo Celt Cup.

How is it that they look much more conditioned than we do? Jamie brennan is a prime example, the Lad is 22 and he's built like a tank, without compromising his pace.

Question; when was last time we beat Donegal at senior level in league or championship? I remember the draw in 92 but don't remember us beating them in last 3 decades

Indeed we got the mother of all beating by Tyrone in an Ulster semi final replay the same year.

Replying To fredflint: "We beat them in the back door one year, by a point in Breffni I think in the era of Larry and Jason" We have beaten all these Donegal players at underage level. They have developed At Senior level at a faster rate than our lads have. 8 years ago Val Andrews decided he didn't need experience thus leaving lads like Clarke and McKiernan in the deep end. Imagine Mackey was finished 8 years ago and he still doing the business today.
Donegal use their experienced players that are left from 2012 senior winning team correctly .
They blend in young players into positions along side players like N Mc Gee and Murphy and have players like McGlynn and McLoone to call on if needed.,

It counts for very little.
