2018 All Ireland Senior Football Championship

A big chance going on this display, hopefully they donā€™t revert to old ways.

13 different scorers, thatā€™s impressive.

A scoreline here you donā€™t see in Hurling.

A lovely worked goal there

The Super 8s off to an awful start.

Gooch was tipping Roscommon.

Sean Cavanagh will hardly be seen tomorrow night. :grin:

Wins like this are testament to the culture of professionalism Mickey Harte has kept in Tyrone.

Tyrone did not have the players to win All-Irelands over the last decade but he has kept them consistently competitive and among the three or four best prepared teams in the game at all times.

For non-traditional counties, ie. anybody outside Dublin and Kerry, itā€™s so easy to slip back into a cycle of total mediocrity after a great team has departed and so many counties have done that over the years. Meath, Cork, Derry, Down, Armagh, Galway all did it. Tyrone have never done that under Harte.

Richie Donnelly very good but canā€™t read too much into that. The defending for the goals really poor.

54 games down in the football championship. Another 11 or so to get out of the way before thereā€™s a meaningful game. What sort of a crowd is there for the much hyped, eagerly awaited, champions league style Super 8?

Smashing post.

8k.

Ball, please smash this gimps melon head.

That makes the 10,255 in Cork today look like a bumper crowd. Too many matches in both codes, hardly anybody could be arsed going anymore.

I think what he did was bring in a proper coach and and proper s&c coach. Thatā€™s the good job he did.

There is and notable improvement in little basic skills. The way the forwards are shielding the ball is notable.

The pace was decent before, itā€™s superb now.

Peter Donnelly has certainly a very good track record now.

Very composed interview from Niall Sludden.

A complete over saturation of games. God be the days of straight knockout.
