A match where for 80 percent of the time the play was brutal... we win the last 6 kickouts and score 1-5.
An amazing victory.... a mesmeric last 5 minutes but by god it was shocking before that. I thought grugan was dreadful, missed frees, kicking the ball away, missed balls over the top, hopped ball for not hitting it quickly enough. Grimley the same- missed frees was soul destroying. Last 5 minutes the two lads stepped up and made up for their mistakes and saw armagh over the line- fair play.
Charlie is some leader round the middle. The man hits hard- a lot of disposessions, high catches, draws fouls, kicked a point- great game. Thought McCabe in the corner did some wonderful things in the game- the full back line got it tough though. Hughes kickouts for once were v poor. Missed his man several times. He will be better next day. Mcshane carries the ball well with little end product today.
Clare must be gobsmacked. It was some atmosphere at the end- the kids were going wild, grown men going wild- fair play lads!! Another day out for the orchard!!
