They won at their ease - I don't rate Tyrone much though really- they are turning into a Northern version of Kildare - consistent, but a lack of cutting edge against the top sides- maybe they will improve in the Qualifiers, find a few goals.
Well how about that?
Donegal out of the blocks today showing their intent. Just Dublin left of the top table to get their summer started.

Bravo London - fair play. London or Leitrim in the Connacht Final - thats going to be great.
Donegal look the class act again this year and they have a few extra subs now as well this year.
Didn't London nearly beat Mayo last year? The breakthrough was on the cards. Posh must be delighted with that result.
Ironic that London is in Connacht
Donegal blew Tyrone away, I didn't expect it but I really enjoyed it.
It was quite something to watch Donegal kill that game off so quickly.
I think Tyrone are better than that but there's no one going to stop Donegal in Ulster this year.
Only us up tomorrow of the genuine contenders and I think it should be a canter. I don't like to be full of hubris before a Dublin match but the way we played in the League shows that there's a definite improvement on last year. It's going to be a great weekend of football and the summer is warming up nicely.
One of Donegal, Dublin or Mayo for Sam.

Dublin look impressive, but can those kids stand up to Donegals brand of defending. Wouldn't rule out Cork or Kerry either.
Always look on the bright side of life
We'll see how it goes this week.
I still think it's between those three with Dublin and Donegal slightly ahead. I'm looking forward to seeing Derry today as well.
Dublin match yesterday was unreal. A training match really but it was nice to see us not let up for too long bar that period towards the end of the first half.
Munster is really pi$$ing me off this year. The gulf in class between Cork and Kerry and the other counties is beyond a joke. Incredibly unfair on Leinster and Ulster teams.

Huge performance from the Limerick hurlers in the Gaelic Grounds against Tipperary yesterday. Breakthrough win maybe ?
Either way, superb day. Well done.
Not a bad weekend for Wexford, underdogs in both codes and came out with a good win in Louth and a draw in Wexford Park. The hurlers will probably rue the missed chance, it was a dreadful game really for long spells but the Dubs looked like they completely lost confidence and were there for the taking. I can't see Dublin being as bad again and I'd be surprised if they don't win the replay by 4 or 5 points.
Tallaght Stadium Regular
Game 2 done and dusted .......
It was a disappointing game altogether. I expected a bit more from the Rossies though it wasn't really in doubt as a result.
Fermanagh were gash in the first half but thankfully improved. Chances are I won't be able to get to their qualifier which is annoying. It's gonna clash with the Dublin match and a trip to Cork.

So how about that Ulster semi?
Intriguing from start to finish. Down played a great game. Unfortunately they came up slightly short in the end. Donegal are a juggernaut though. Still easily the favourites for Sam. Only 2 wides in that match. Scary stuff.
I think Down could be on a good run this year though as well through the qualifiers, draw dependent there's definite progress since the league whcich you could see slowly come to fruition against Derry.
Now it's time for Cork and Clare. HON THE BANNER!

Epic match happening down in Portlaoise.
