The geaney sludden incident was huge, tyrone attacking and had a man taken dow. Result throw up followed by a soft free and point to kerry. Could have been black for geaney and a free in. optimist (Louth) - Posts: 176 - 11/08/2019 19:25:19 2224227 Link 0 |
Was hoping tyrone would do it and they looked for a large part of that game that they would but there was serious dependency on cathal mcshane for scores which to be fair when he started missing a few as all forwards do Kerry seemed to grow in confidence from this and kick on. McCurry and mcalisky were brought on when the damage was done.Suprised Tyrone didn't go with more scoring forwards when that Kerry defence was there for the taking. seanie08 (Monaghan) - Posts: 1798 - 11/08/2019 19:29:55 2224231 Link 0 |
It's not a surprise Tyrone had McCurry and the likes on bench. Lee Brennan would be a natural corner forward and left the panel early in the year, so did Ronan O Neill. They play too cautious, to get any freedom for the forwards. FoolsGold (Cavan) - Posts: 2763 - 11/08/2019 19:39:34 2224234 Link 0 |

Tyrone couldnt put the ball over the bar or in the net when it counted in second half with the pressure on. Had many chances and Im afraid you cant blame the ref for these misses. The goal was decisive and Kerry took that chance with a cool head. At halftime it looked different but Kerry subs were a big factor.

The hard lessons are they have to tweek the game plan and bring in a couple of scoring forwards that they have and have trust in them to win ,not always been to cautious,hoping to have a lead and hold on to it ,as for refs we can all moan about them

9 out of 9 for tyrone now since 2010, and still claim to be a work in progress this decade. BeJasus (UK) - Posts: 383 - 11/08/2019 20:03:06 2224249 Link 0 |

Was a strange game. Seemed to lack intensity but maybe the lack of a crowd had something to do with that. Referee aside, Tyrone really seemed to lack energy in the second half. Stephen O'Brien scored a point at one stage where the Tyrone man stood about 4 feet away and never even tried to apply pressure. Even for his goal, there were loads of Tyrone defenders around and no one bothered tracking him. It was so un Tyrone like. HighKings (Meath) - Posts: 271 - 11/08/2019 20:08:07 2224252 Link 1 |
That was close to the end. The ref had played his part more than well to ensure the result. He was feeling a bit guilty then so he tried to even things up. I am glad that I decided to watch it rather than go to Croke Park to see a great All Ireland semi final. It had the makings of a great one but for me spoiled by wrong decisions by the ref.

All jokes aside man, that comes across as pretty bitter. Deegan is not a great ref but Kerry were better today and deserved their win, it's best to take it on the chin and move on rather than cry foul.

Not sure if Tyrone needed another final defeat and who'd be interested in watching it. Kerry Dublin final a guaranteed hypefest. jonno (Kildare) - Posts: 260 - 11/08/2019 20:32:22 2224264 Link 2 |
It's something Kerry regularly do effectively and without much said about it. That said, big games are for big players and Harte didn't do enough. Had a big goal chance and should have made sure of it.

Hard to disagree with any of this.

Hope Micky Harte retires now and let's Tyrone take a new direction now. New blood & a new perspective req'd. Second half was really poor. Not even McShane is a natural scoring forward. Hope Kerry can do a job on Dub's but it is highly unlikely. Half empty Croke Park should be a suitable warning for the suits.... ShaneFrank8 (Tyrone) - Posts: 8 - 11/08/2019 20:51:20 2224281 Link 1 |
Bring back Anthony Nolan as referee for all Tyrone games I say. The audacity of the ref today to make decisions contrary to the supporters liking. greysoil (Monaghan) - Posts: 965 - 11/08/2019 20:51:23 2224282 Link 1 |
Poor game between two average sides, refereed by a terrible referee. The side with the better forwards won in the end, but still overall, Tyrone should have beaten them. What McGeary was doing, only he knows, straight up the pitch, goal, game over. Because this Tyrone team's biggest failing is total lack of leaders.
