12 different Armagh scorers today.
That's some spread
Armagh very comfortable today not stretched at any time today.

One thing today really told me is that teams must analyse referees when preparing for the biggest games.
The difference in rules interpretation between Kevin Fallon last week and Conor lane today meant you were almost watching two different sports.
I must say I think Lane is a pathetic referee with almost zero understanding of physicality and doesn’t allow any aggression in the tackle at all.
In the car I said downs only hope was to dive at any touch as Lane will blow for any contact
Thankfully we were so much better it wasn’t the factor it could have been but Jesus that man does his best to try and ruin every game he takes charge of.

Great result today and most importantly a whole new generation will be looking forward to their first Ulster final - players and supporters. Hopefully everyone will be fit and it's a great occasion. It's good that we have beaten teams we should have, comfortably at that, that's not something we have achieved in the past.
Looking forward to the final.

Like a training match at times, you’ll take it all day long. Could’ve been a potential banana skin game.

Good day all round despite the weather.

Bring on the final.

Pretty sure Brendan Donaghy was last panel member to be involved in the 08 Ulster Final - so new territory for the entire panel??

Enjoyable. I'll take playing poor enough and win. If the comments were we played out of our skin making no mistakes, we'd be worried going to the final. ANY day beating Down in any game is a good day!!

Come on lads. It's almost 10.30pm on the evening of a match day. Ok then I'll start it. Time Geezer was gone. Let someone who knows what they're at take charge for the final and we'll only lose it by 20 points!!!!!!!!!!

Great to win comfortably, i think down knew if they came out and chased the game in the 2nd half they would have been ripped apart altogether. Rian was smart today, was getting a ridiculous amount of attention off the ball from the down 6 and kept his cool throughout, pulled him out wide and left space for the other forwards. Then roasted him and sold the keeper down the river. While a quiet day for rian i think it was a mature performance from him

Ah here we go! Moaning Michael numero uno has just rolled out of the pub.

What do you mean you were being sarcastic? :oops:

Bit off topic, but Clones isn't fit for purpose. Toilets situation is dreadful and the town itself is a nightmare for traffic.

It has always been this way - but really unacceptable for 2023. The GAA needs to consider giving money to Monaghan to redevelop the place.

Personally, I think the Ulster final should be moved to Croke Park until Casement is redeveloped.
