Couldn't believe Tally started those men either! Maybe he wanted 1 last high intensity game in their legs but he'd have been better off giving fringe men a go.

According to RTE, us and them were level with +7 scoring difference.
Had we drawn with Tyrone earlier, and ended up level on points and scoring difference, then how would things have been decided?
Overall a good campaign I think. Stayed in Div 1, developed players (McCormack, McMullan, McQuillan), legs ticked over and Ciaran Mackin back on the field. Coupled with Derry and Tyrone going down it was a nice finish to it all though Tyrone are playing well and will be a serious challenge as the season develops.
Play Antrim wherever it has to be played, win that and work towards the semi. Ulster would be a real achievement and would help build towards a run at Sam.

I think it goes on highest scorers then but I might be wrong
(i) Where two teams only are involved – the outcome of the meeting of the two teams in the group
(ii) Score difference – subtracting the total scores against from the total scores for
(iii) highest total score for
(iv) highest total goals for
(v) A play-off

McGeeney was telling people to shut up during the game but I couldn't see what it was about....anyone any idea? Lol
Was he listening to the Black Eyed Peas on his headphones?
Was @ArmaghMartin behind him ?
@Ard Mhacha 13 You shouting too loud again ?

Mad league altogether. Safety was the number 1 priority and we achieved that, so congratulations to all involved. No matter what happens in championship, it's imperative to be playing in division 1 or 2 to blood new players in competitive games, and we have another season in division 1 to do that next year. Always need a conveyor belt of a couple of players a year. We've had injuries and illnesses etc to deal with and have given time to McMullan and McCormack which is great to see. Trivial matter just, but mayo topping the table on a negative score difference is apt for the season that's in it and rule changes to a new game essentially. Also, had we beaten them at home rather than throw the game away, we would be in a league final. Anyway.

I can confirm that AM 13 was shouting very loudly indeed.
Only Mayo could top the league with a negative scoring difference

Andy Murnin has been sensational this league and today he was on a different level
Not only the obvious superb high fielding but his general play was excellent
Player of the year and has to be an all star
Callum O'Neill superb today as well
Wasn't even in the programme but came in and was superb throughout
Mcquillan, McCormack,mcgrane,McMullan all excellent today.
It's going to be some super 16s this year
There's ten teams - all div 1 plus Monaghan and Roscommon - who'll fancy it
The team that can keep players fit will do well

The last line here. The team that carries the least injuries will win it. Faster game, shorter season. It's gonna be a hectic 3 or 4 months now.

I'm not fully convinced by young McMullan yet, I would need to see him in an intense Ulster championship game first. Good lad surely but I don't think he is on the same level as Conaty, I'd be happy to be proved wrong. McCormack on the other hand looks like the real deal, I've been very impressed with him. Great to see Ross showing what he is capable of. I think he has the potential to replace Rian, not as the same type of player but with the impact he has on a game.
