There won't be a mushroom picked in Monaghan for a week.

Heroic performance there in Croke Park after an awkward opener.
Huge mental strength shown.
Delighted.

Fantastic result fought hard the whole way through, hopefully it'll not be celebrated too much as it's a league game not championship. But it is brilliant for confidence going forward

Well done Monaghan, what a win and fully deserved. Year after year you just upset the narrative and prove a lot.of people wrong. Early days yet of course but Monaghan will be no pushover any stage of the season. By the looks of things you'll not miss Rory eggan too much either. Well done McDonnell and also a shout out to Stephen O' Hanlon. What a player when on form. That's Derry, Cavan, Monaghan and Carlow who've had wins on the road so far. Hopefully the Rossies can join that list tomorrow evening

Fantastic Monaghan, as good as the win was, the style of football ye played was even better. Direct football, a joy to watch and O Hanlon was sensational.
Between club final last weekend and opening rounds of league today, clear evidence of what a great game gaelic football can be.
2 away points in the bag in Rd 1, I already think ye are safe so the field narrows for the rest of us.

Fair play to the many young lads who stepped up tonight in a very inexperienced Monaghan side. It might be a Dublin team without a whole lot of work done yet, but it's still the AI champs without who had a strong looking team on paper, and Monaghan have a load of players missing. Might just be an early league game, but still encouraging for the lads out there who dug out the result without needing to rely on the likes of Mansy to save them.

Jesus yer lads some balls tonight. Unreal performance. People had ye as favourites to go down with us but looking at some of the young talent ye have ye aren't going anywhere.

Stephen O'Hanlon on fire. Brilliant performance from him. Well done the Farney men.

Direct running at pace won the day especially from O Hanlon, thought Lavelle was immense too. We probably deserved the win, left more scores behind than Dublin, and could have got a second penalty soon after the first, having said that we got some decisions go out way too. Was wondering does McCaffrey have to abide by the same rules as everyone else the amount of fouls he committed
Great to see our young lads win in Croke Park improving our win ratio there has been an issue so all good today anyway

Well done Monaghan great result tonight and great style of play from a young team ye may well run us close in the first round of ulster now.

Cracking result tonight dough wasn't good for the heart.. wasnt a great performance IMO, pure heart, desire and a refusal to buckle earned the 2pts… lots of room for improvement which is great to see.. we're getting Kerry at an great time is well next weekd so could be well on the road to survival next weekd…absolutely delighted for McDonnell who showed tonight what an excellent goalkeeper he is.. o Hanlons best performance in a Monaghan shirt also… long time since we started with only 1 scotstown player (o' toole) which was another massive plus which shows the playing pool we have of players from other clubs so the future mightnt be as bleak as some may think…
