It was a good performance but Kildare aren't great at all this year. I think Cavan have the players to match Tyrone and give them a good game but the worry is Tyrone just have a bit more experience and steel about them for the big occasion. I expect a close game with Tyrone just to edge it but it wouldn't be a massive shock if Cavan won.

Both teams were running the flank and then cutting in to the D once over the 45. Donegal were far sharper in terms of execution, we made simple handling and basic passing mistakes which led to easy turnovers and very often than not they were clinical to exploit the subsequent lack of defensive shape. Coupled with a poor goalkeeping display meant they were out the gate in the first 20 mins. Second half they largely took their foot of the pedal, as a game it was never a contest. Our score flatters to deceive. I feel we need a generous draw in order to get to the super8

First half, we also missed 3 or 4 chances in that first half that we should have put over......Gerry Smith *2 and Holla, not to mention Rehills missed goal chance, being the stand out ones. I dont buy the argument of being too defensive, when we conceded 13 points in the first half, and 1-11 in the second. I dont think we were good enough to beat Donegal, but a lot of the mistakes we made are fixable

All this talk of the likes of Rian O’Neill and Jamie Clarke but very little about Killian Clarke or McLoughlin that kept them quiet that day. One suggested reason I have seen for it is the amount of pundits from places like Armagh (McDonnell, McConville, O’Rourke for example) leading to a bias of punditry from media. The news seems to be positive about the county team trying to bounce back for the Super 8s. Would be fantastic to get the extra games. I firmly believe one of the ways to improve is by playing better teams and players regularly.
