    Mayo playing second fiddle for 30mins....only a point down at ht.

    Mayo will win this.

    But there is no advantage rule though. The refs are damned if they do and damned if they don't.

    Tyrone have been clinical today. Playing the percentages. Mayo are shooting from hail Mary positions on the field and its sapping any momentum they are generating

    True, tough call for the ref in that situation really

    Cavanagh should have been booked - he had no hope of getting the ball but still put in a reckless challenge.

    Both players went for it to be fair...

    Tyrone were very good in the first half, played with an intensity that Mayo may not have been expecting, certainly one they haven't faced all year.

    Some lovely scores, McAliskey and McCurry scored some beautiful points, and Cavanagh hasn't really been in the game in a scoring sense.

    Mayo's forward movement was awful, but seemed to wake up at the end...all backs who scored...Barrett's 2 were great, but to go in only a point down after not scoring from play for over half an hour and not really being in the game, they'll be delighted.


    Tyrone don't have the panel they used to have, Carlin and O'Neill but losing Harte who is a key playmaker and O'Neill who is just class is a huge blow, cannot be underestimated. O'Connor is a loss too, particularly his free-taking but Mayo are better equipped to cope without him imo.


    You'd expect Mayo to kick on from here. If they went in 4 down, I'd give a Tyrone a real chance but I can't see them being able to last 70 minutes with Mayo now. Don't think the goal was controversial, blew the whistle very early, one person didn't attempt to make the tackle and the keeper knew it was a free too.

    Tyrone had a good start, Mayo finishing has been rotten rather than Tyrone stopping them getting chances. Some days they have popped them over from anywhere, but not today so far. However they have done well to get it back to 1, which Tyrone will be very dissapointed with, having been so on top.

    I'd expect Mayo to come back out with more confidence now having weathered the storm.

    Mayo are still in with a chance. They're only a point down despite being quite poor and they seemed to be gettimg it together a bit before half time. If they can keep that momentum going, they can win. That said, up to now it's been typical mayo I'm sad to say - the ultimate bottlers.

    In fairness, the Tyrone defence has been very good at forcing Mayo into shooting from poor angles.

    Those last 3 points for Mayo could be crucial (I think they will be). It could be close til the end and that means a goal could win this for either team. I'd fancy Mayo to lift it a notch though from what I have seen in the first half.

    No penalty there but another cynical foul by Tyrone.

    Getting sick of Tyrone surrounding the ref and questioning every single decision that goes against them .
