Roscommon Vs Tyrone

(Oldest Posts First) - Go To The Latest Post


It was a four point hammering in fairness. Tyrone did what they had to whilst keeping some energy for later in the year. You'd have to ask if the Connaught championship is going through it's strongest period. Mayo don't seem to take it too serious but will have a major say in the All Ireland Championship. This super 8 group is going to be a hard watch, to me Roscommon showed why they'll be playing Div 2 next year. I would comment on thr ref - what was going on I'd like to think the home crowd had an impact and nothing more because for me he did his best to impact the game but Tyrone were too good to allow him.

The lack of a black card for a Dublin player blatantly pulling down an opponent makes my case entirely.

Replying To Douglas_44:  "Really? Tyrone "won" plenty of frees with a bit of cuteness, a hand in and go to ground. No problem, that's something ros have to learn at this level and do same. Cathal Cregg got taken out twice within 2 minutes of each other, 2nd tackle could have been a black. Niall Daly running through near end, got taken down, certain black but again ref opted for yellow. Tyrone kick out, before ball was kicked Tyrone player caught donie smiths arm and pulled him down on top of him in front of ref..free to Tyrone! So it wasn't all in favor of Ros. He had a poor game for both teams."
Ach now. When the commentators are questioning the referees decision on multiple occasions you know something stupid is going on. Best one I heard the commentator stating rosscommon fouling ferociously as Tyrone but zero cards given to tyrones 5 yellows.

Well done Tyrone. Better team by a country mile.

Tyrone were the better team end of. No point in making excuses. They were much fitter which showed in the last quarter and they had Donnelly, Sludden and McShane.
Complete rubbish being spouted about refs dishing out yellows and blacks to Ulster teams. It's up there with the Peter Harte Black Card conspiracy nonsense going on in another thread.
Enda Smith got taken out as he was shooting on goal in the first half. Should have been a penalty because you can't shoulder charge a player as he's kicking the ball. It wasn't even a legal shoulder charge. Wouldn't have made a blind bit of difference to the result but some of you Ulster boys need to lose that chip on the shoulder and the siege mentality

On the day that was anything but a good performance from Roscommon, Tyrone outscored them by 0-11 to 0-05 in the second half yet they only won by 0-04 hardly a convincing win against a misfiring Roscommon side, if anything I think Tyrone have slipped a bit from last season.

that was another superb performance from tyrone..this game was do or die, and roscommon were being seriously underestimated by a lot of people...coming from mayo originally I know what it's like to having to travel to the Hyde for big games..tyrone have seriously transformed themselves since the donegal debacle..many of us were seriously critical of the performance of some of the team on that day, and deservedly a fifth of that starting team have now lost their places...as a result those that have come in have seriously nailed down their places...tyrone are now serious all ireland contenders...never mind the refereeing performance...we have come to expect the anti tyrone bias from him by now

You clearly don't understand the black card rule

Replying To kingdomfan:  "Ref didn't give Tyrone anything in that game. How are Roscommon in the Super 8s? Gutless second half display in front of their own fans. Can see now why Kerry let Conor Cox go. Expect to see Tyrone in the last 8. Ros to go through the 3 games winless again"
They deservedly won Connacht, that's why they're there.

To be fair cork penalty incident wasn't a black he was pushed to ground not dragged

Not happy with the win without having to have a go at the ref. See my previous post about that chip on the shoulder

2nd half score was 0-9 to 0-7. Game went along the expected lines even though some not so smart posters thought Tyrone would win by about 15 to 18 points against Roscommon again.

You could sense any chance of a upset was over at half time when two good goal chances was saved by Morgan and some straight forward frees were missed. Opportunity was there for Roscommon to lead at half time but they will be left with thoughts of what might have been now.

Tyrone showed especially 2nd half why they are a top 4 side and won with 4 points to spare in what was a banana skin game for them.

Sam, you are a howl. That is the funniest piece I have read for ages. Have you ever thought of becoming a professional gag writer?

You are either blinkered or need to go to spec savers- that incident is what the black was brought in for. The guy was in a goal scoring position and was brought down with a very good rugby tackle-a clear black card. He did not trip over himself. You obviously do not know the rules.

Which is why you missed so many incidents before commenting. Watch it back again. You will hear him reference it numerous times between all the crying and shouting from the rossie fans

i thought it was a good win for Tyrone, as playing Roscommon at home was going to be a test. I thought they handled it well and seemed to come out of it with no real issues.

I think Roscommon have improved and will rue their missed chances but Tyrone were just that bit too good and gave me the impression they have plenty left in the tank.

Not sure what state Cork will be in next week. They gave it a good go to be fair against Dublin but it might have taken quite a bit out of them.

I would have to fancy Tyrone to win and secure the semi final berth.

Yeh we all see your previous post and sure would expect no less from somebody like you who clearly has no love for Tyrone. The amount of around the throat/neck challenges you got away with today was a disgrace. Young Darcy should've seen black for hauling down Mattie Donnelly too.Plus the lad bending Colm Cavs arm up his back when he was on ground. If the commentators are questioning the officiating then we know we have a point. Just cos you can't admit it doesn't mean it isn't true.

but they haven't transformed themselves, your only codding yourself thinking that.

After the Donegal beating , tyrone reverted back to the old system , saftey 1st with little or no kicking game with blanket in place.

This system may work against the lower ranked teams , but Tyrone will be found out at the semi final stage using that system against any of Mayo/Donegal/ or Kerry.
