My mistake! Well spotted. Had McCabe in my head as I wanted to mention him as a potential starter. Thought Ciaran Mackin was excellent at 6. Will edit post now!
Read through quite a few of the posts on here since I last visited the forum. Quite diverse views on last Saturday.
The referee seems to be one focal point. For what it's worth I too agree he was truly awful. In the first half he gave Armagh nothing (other than yellow cards). McKay's tackle to...
Wouldn't differ too much from that team.
The first names on the team in the ideal scenario ( if everyone was fully fit) for me would be;
A. Forker
A. McKay
G. McCabe
O. O'Neill
R. O'Neill
J. Duffy
A. Murnin
C. Turbitt
If Morgan was fully fit he'd make it 9.
Armagh's strongest 15 for me...
Disagree that he was better in the Ulster final last year than the Galway game the year before? I suggest you watch them back. By his own admission he hadn't a great game in that Galway game, and he did against Derry. He was huge for us in that Ulster final.
Couldn't agree more.
I don't understand what is it with the media - especially in the South who have this 'Pro-Derry' agenda.
Armagh or Tyrone, when they were the two best teams in the country never got any such affection.
That final last year was a tough one to take.
Rory called a mark he...
Absolutely fantastic young man. Very tough on Caolan. But having donated myself and looking at the amount on gofundme it shows the community spirit of the GAA in Armagh and further afield.
Caolan - a sensational footballer too. Put on one of the best individual performances in 2022 for St...
Armagh did what they had to do to get out of a poor division.
Meath, Kildare, and Cavan were all horrendous. Louth showed us how good Fermanagh are yesterday.
You can only beat what it is front of you but a lot of these lads have not been tested against high class opposition.
The issue is...
They undoubtedly do. And agreed - Turbo in the early rounds of Ulster last year was superb. Then struggled against Down and Derry.
But my heart still stops a little every time I think of when it was announced over the loudspeaker in Croke Park v Monaghan that Conor Turbitt will be replaced by...
Forker undoubtedly. People saying Murnin's best days are behind him after his first game back? Hard to take seriously. He's one of the first 3/4 men on the team when back to full fitness.
If we look at the big stage last year v Monaghan. Unfortunately Grugan and Soupy were passengers.
Doing it...
