Replying To Ulsterchamps_32:  "Michael Murphy's 200th game for Donegal. What a servant and leader he has been for the county. It's been one of life's great pleasures to watch him play in the Donegal jersey over the years.

Reaching 200 appearances is a remarkable achievement and a real testament to his dedication and commitment.

Hopefully he'll get the reception he deserves from the Donegal supporters tomorrow.

Micheál Ó Murchú Abú!"
Fitting for Mick to win on his 2ooth appearance. Enjoy the celebrations.

Replying To Expertinall:  "I wouldn't be pressing the panic button just yet
The championship really started in Killarney, otherwise Armagh would be further ahead than Donegal, right now, are they? Lot of games played by them, and no better off, in my opinion. Not many will fancy Donegal out of the hat. Saturday was not perfect, but we'll see plenty more such performances, I'm sure from more than a few teams. Also a few decisions were dubious to say the least!"
There definitely were a few dubious ones. It seemed to stem from the Cork management and especially the centre back trying to get Murphy sent off after what looked a clean turnover. Clearly this was an instruction after the league final debacle. Thereafter a big part of the game swinging was as you call dubious decisions. McGee getting called for over carrying which was marginal to say the least. Then the same centre back running from one 45 to the other with one hop and pops over a 2 pointer. The dessent call which unless was for something said had most of the crowd murmuring.

Anyways we go again. Safe travels to anyone on the way....most probably are, I'm about to set off myself. Let's hope we're in the draw Monday and Michael Murphy's 200th game isn't a sour one.
