Early days but young turbitt looks to be some talent. 2-6 in your first 2 county games is serious scoring
I haven’t read a post yet that suggested anyone was panicking at all!Unlike some here I wouldn't panic too much. Tyrone added 4 players to their squad this year going by reports. Armagh. In Brady, O'Neill, Mcconville and Turbitt Armagh had 4 players who made their first county starts in this McKenna Cup. Tyrone targeted the kick outs of a rookie keeper. He and the team will improve in this area. However for me it looked like Tyrone played with a greater intensity. True or not it looked like they wanted to win more.
For me positives over the 2 games where Turbitt and O'Neill in defense. Negatives are that a few players seem behind in fitness. Kickout strategy needs more work.
Finally, can someone explain the mark to me ...oh and...when does getting your jersey pulled off you back become a foul for overcarrying . You got to love Barry Cassidy !!!

Rian is a special talent and dangerous inside. So why does he play around the middle? I don’t get it? He done the same v Mayo last year. Got a goal early doors, full back was booked and he drifted out the field in that game too. Does he just play where he wants? If he stays inside the damage he could do is nuts.
The Sheridan experiment at Full Back was a disaster.
Was probably just too high profile of a match to throw the new keeper into that game. Tyrone sensed a weakness and pushed up.
Grimley struggled while McCabe hardly put a tackle in.
But that lad Turbitt can play ball. Serious player that lad.
Clarke was there tonight. He was on the pitch after the game. Murnin is coming back from injuryAlso does anyone know what the story is with Jamie? Still in London? Will he travel for league/championship?
And is Andrew Murnin fit????
Didn’t take long at all did itThis match was very similar to the donegal match in the McKenna cup last year. We have loads of good footballers, none of them seem to know what they are doing and the vast majority of them are playing too deep / out of position.
I couldn't care less about the McKenna cup but I would be taking no confidence from this performance for the season ahead.
I was annoyed at that last night too but Turbo didn’t call for it straight away so I don’t know if that contributed. And in fairness the ref missed one for them when their player did call for it. He gave us w free for overcarrying and we went up the pitch and scored. Soupy getting called for steps was ridiculous thoUnlike some here I wouldn't panic too much.

Tyrone players called a mark.from a free which ismt allowed. Our one the ball was hit from inside the 45 to turbo so we was not able to call the markI was annoyed at that last night too but Turbo didn’t call for it straight away so I don’t know if that contributed.
