Wrong!

The bitterest of defeats*, that one.

It proved that Dublin’s third team aren’t the third best team in the country after all.

*For Ewan.

Considering you feel that Monaghan beating Dublin in a group stage league game is relevant, it’s surprising you omitted in that narrative to point out that Galway beat Tyrone in the league by 4 points.

Well clearly you think Monaghan are a better team than Dublin, which is why it’s so surprising that you were talking about the “weak half of the draw”.

Monaghan are no great shakes. They could only score 0-10 in losing to Fermanagh. Tyrone couldn’t have hand picked a better semi final opponent than Monaghan.

It was a much poorer championship with Mayo and Kerry bowing out early. After all those great Dublin v Mayo and Dublin v Kerry tussles of recent years, Tyrone not up to it.

Dublin and Kerry have failed to beat Dublin under Jim Gavin in Championship, like Tyrone.

Jim Gavin can’t bate himself :laughing:

Tyrone appear to be a very limited team and Mickey Harte is doing a very good job

Dublin have failed to beat Dublin under Jim Gavin? Go and have a lie down, you’ve lost the little bit you had left.

Edit: Wrong thread.

To be fair to Mickey Harte , at very best , 3 of the current Tyrone squad might make the 2003 to 2008 teams .

:rollseyes:

It’s hard to argue they weren’t really. Finished top of the league, won their province and along with Dublin were the only side qualified from the super 8s after 2 games. Dublin beat them in the league final and All-Ireland semi, only other game they lost all year was against Monaghan where they spent the 70 minutes trying to conserve energy.

The Monaghan game was a dead rubber for Galway. Galway second best team this year after Dublin.
