Hes just done this again
Ethan Rafferty with a goal, outstanding performance.
Armagh win by 9 points. Looks like McGeeney has made a huge impact on this set of players, the younger guys like Campbell, the two Raffertys and Findon were outstanding. With the likes of Donaghy, McKeever and Kernan amongst others to return for Armagh they could make a decent stab at Ulster although the competition is fierce.
Ulster looks very tasty this year. 7 good teams there and all of them have a good chance of reaching at least an All-Ireland quarter-final.
How many Cross lads are currently featuring with Ard Mhaca?
Whos the simple looking fella in studio with Gilroy and Mossy?
Iâd just prefer that Ulster teams who have been knocked out of the Ulster Championship could not meet each other until the latter stages of the qualifiers.
Tony Kernan, Clarke and Morgan were the Cross players who started tonight.
âRolyâ Sweeney.
Christ, how did I not recognise him, he appears slower of thought that he is of foot.

Great to see Jmaes Morgan backâŚ
The best defender in Ulster.

When everyone is fit Armagh have a very strong squad up as far as the full forward line where they are pretty much dependent on Clarke. Campbellâs performance would have been very encouraging tonight but it wouldnât be the first time a full forward has excelled in a league campaign before only to disappear into oblivion. A shame Gavin McParland is unavailable this year. Things look up for Armagh in the future - the key players out there today with the exception of Andy Mallon were all young guys who are only going to get better.
Armagh had some potential a couple of years ago but let it slide. Have not seen this new side, but it will tell a lot about McGeeney how he goes with them. He left Kildare when they were getting in a couple of real good players. I have a feeling heâll have better âfootballersâ in Armagh, it will be interesting if he makes them another Kildare or plays to their strengths.

Some excellent points for Dublin by Cooper (2), OâSullivan, McManamon and OâGara. Goal by Andrews.
Splendid goal by Kildare as a result of good, quick long ball into the yawning space at the heart of the Dublin defence and an unstoppable finish by Darach Mulhall who looks a serious find for Kildare. They have finished the half well after being 8 down.
Sean George lucky not to get a black card after hauling down Paddy Brophy who would have been through on goal. The Dublin defence looks very porous.
I will speculate that Ciaran Kilkenny is gone for the year.[/quote]
Ruptured ACL confirmed for Kilkenny - gone for the year.
Obviously an issue with his strength and conditioning work.
Obviously.
James O Donoghue, what a fucking player:clap:
Highlights of cork and Derry from a packed Pairc Ui Rinn says Michael Lyster. Fucking hell. And we say the rugby crowd are bad for hyperbole. It barely looked 10 per cent full.
Eh, its well known that Cork dont follow their footballers mate, move on.
TomĂĄs OâConnor is a hilariously poor âfootballerâ.
My point was relating to Michael Lysterâs tom mcgurk esque bullshit talk
