I enjoyed Oisin McDonagh's two shoulders in a row to Armagh men. Sent them flying.

Yeah very good point CC. He was outstanding last year and pulled off some big saves in clutch moments. Happy with the points and got to watch the game today with no tech issues despite an early start. Ballyshannon looked amazing on my stream and photos I've seen since. Really enjoy going to games there between the logistics and the very welcoming hosts. On another point great to see Caolan McGonigle sprinting up the field at the end. He made his 100th appearance last weekend. Who would of said that a few years ago. His determination to get to where he is deserves all the plaudits and of course a massive congratulations for reaching such a milestone.

Fair play on the result last day, think both teams can be happy with alot of what they seen and bother missing alot of men, both teams will improve, never much between Armagh and Galway over the last 4 years, I'd actually say this was the best Armagh looked against Galway in a long time and can be really happy with the general performance but not the result, think Armagh going forward look very good and in midfield look strong, both teams will be there or there abouts come business end of things,

A game of two halves much like last week. Again an excellent first half but nowhere near those levels in the second. However 4 points after 2 games and it's nearly a case of job done. I imagine the target much like last year is to get to 6 as soon as possible and start experimenting once Division 1 status has nearly been established. Contributions from all over the field and good to see some of the young squad members get a run out towards the end. Also good to see Murphy and Gallen back. I thought Mogan in particular was excellent if picking one out. Some laughable headlines already on the click based media using the word "revenge". It's the first day in February playing a Kerry team down the 3 players who done much of the damage against us last year in the 2 Cliffords and Gavin White plus other players to come into the reckoning including Paul Geaney.

Replying To eddieSize5Balls:  "Good win but pity Kerry were missing some of their stars.

Patton can't come back soon enough.


The 2 points for a free is a horrible. Keeps teams who are playing poor in it if they have a great kicker. I know it's to stop cynical tackles out the field but that scoreline today flattered Kerry.

Murphy looking still trim and quick for a man who's 36!"
I thought Mulreaney played well. His kickouts were on the money, I was behind the goal in first half and he hit some beautiful kickouts compared to his counterpart who was hitting and hoping.

Hard luck today to Monaghan. No more than ourselves you were missing a lot of players but ye definitely improved vastly from last week's game against Armagh. Roscommon deserved today's win but Monaghan were very competitive throughout and I've no doubt ye'll improve dramatically as the year goes on. Its very difficult when injuries keep coming but from that younger players are blooded which is vital. Still early days in the league. Nothing to say you can't get a result in Dublin in two weeks time and depending on other results there could be a lot of teams hovering around relegation. Not a certainty yet that the league is done for Monaghan. Wouldn't it be great if both Roscommon and Monaghan could avoid relegation. Here's hoping

Replying To Ros2013:  "Slow start but a brilliant result. Sets us up for the rest of the league. 2 more wins well achievable with our home fixtures in succession. Best part is the competition for places. Haven't seen it since 2017-2019 or 2001-2003 1998 when we had decent panels. Another test for Mark will be to avoid the outside noise that'll come
From brigids to get their players fast tracked back into the team. At this stage only stack
And Fallon are guaranteed starters. Everyone else has a lot of work to do to make the match day panel.Fantastic to see Brady get a chance after what happened last year. I hope the posters giving out about the FBD league feel foolish now. It'll take a long time for supporters to get this inferiority complex out of their mind. The same that questioned Brigid's ability to win Connacht when it was blatantly obvious they were the best team."
With stack out for awhile Fallon maybe the only starter from brigids vs Armagh …
Great to see competition for every position.The ball carrying today by d heneghan and e smith was brilliant and when you add the ability of the returning c hand - hopefully see all 3 together soon.
B o Carroll not guaranteed
Ryan and Doyle have been steady -s cunnane is better on the ball than both, but overall it will it's hard pick 2 out of the 3
Can't see p frost starting yet anyways, Gavin , McCormack , Higgins ,Keogh all have done well and be good to see m Richardson get a start in a league game to see how goes
Think Brady has done enough to stay no 1 for now , kickouts were very good today

Relieved to get the win, it was closer than it really should have been, finished strongly at least. Another couple of injuries we could have done without today, really need to get as many as possible back in this 2 weeks break before we head to London who will be very confident after their great victory in Longford today.

long trip to Ballyshannon for Donegal fans, very unfair, I'd say Jim is outraged.
Maybe the Coast Guard could ferry fans from the other end of the county.

Well done Donegal today.Tbh I was worried at half time it could be a massacre so was happy enough in the end.
Dinegal cleaned us out midfield in first half but we battled better in second.Nice to see Murphy and Galken enter ,even if only for a few minutes.

Bit of perspective needed here, Struggling in div 1 is a problem 24 other counties would love to have so it's not the end of the world.. div 2 football is where this team is at.. a good crop of u20s coming through in the next year or 2 and div 2 will be a good breeding ground for these lads…however one worry is the excuse culture that seems to be in full swing with GB, this seeps into players mindsets…every team is missing players…bottom line is the team looks unfit and shorn of pace in key positions…

Replying To Drax_the_destroyer:  "And you got that improvement 2nd half yet I don't see you as quick to post about it on here? Not a bad days work for the Rossies without a number of first choice players and scoring 3-16 (25) plus Monaghan had a stronger line up today with Beggan and Co back."
Was the first half poor? Was there an improvement needed? I think you can agree that both were true. 2nd half was much better for sure and fair play to the lads for lifting it. Looked flat in 1st half and like we thought it was going to be an easy afternoon but thankfully we were able to go through the gears when needed. Still plenty to work on, I felt Monaghan cut through us too often and we got caught with players getting in behind us which a better team would have punished us more from. Enda showed again what a leader he is and continues to be, outstanding again today. As has been said, decision making needs to improve going forward. Senan Lambe was good again but I felt he sometimes took the wrong option and carried ball into contact when there was an opportunity to lay the ball of but I like his enthusiasm and his will to try and drive forward. Darragh Heneghan was very good, his pace caused real trouble to Monaghan and is a great asset to have. Brady has been very good the last 2 days and it's great we have competition for the number 1 jersey. Great to get the win and get up and running, massive challenge coming in 2 weeks but with players to come back in the squad is getting stronger and that's a great thing.
Only negative today is the news of Cian's injury and he is a loss, a real shame for him but hopefully he will be back fit for New York.

Replying To OpenStandWall:  "2 points dug out but that was a really below par performance in the second half to say the least, our lack of size in particular the half back line was glaring although I thought Wickham finished the game strongly. Our first touch as well was poor. Think Down also scored directly from every free we gave away.

Chin or no Chin next week there needs to be a big improvement.

Nice to see a good Wexford following there today also for a game in February 300+ KM away."
That's some trek for supporters, credit to those who travelled, genuine supporters

Replying To Westmeath25:  "Great to see us winning close games!

Could do with one more fielder around the middle but we do have Niall Mitchell and Shane Ormsby coming back as possible impacts at kickouts! Shane Allen back in the panel today also good to see! A win next against down would all but see us promoted!"
You've obviously ignored Wexford and Limerick's results, a win in Newry guarantees nothing only two league points

Replying To Square_B:  "Which is not suprising to hear as I commented last week that I thought our backline was our weakest link despite playing well enough last week. The break will hopefully serve us well to work on tightening up defence. Big game in two weeks will make or break our season."
Remember lost Diffley and McNamara before half time

Won't be mentioned much considering who they were missing all over the pitch but felt Kerry really missed Shane Ryan in goals
