Have to hold my hands up and say - well done Kerry.. wasn’t the result I wanted and is disappointing for Armagh (may be the end of an era for Joe and some of the lads) .. but the better team on the day won the game! And it was an intriguing game..

So what happened to the Ulster teams this year? Injury knocked out Tyrone, tiredness and age caught-up with Armagh and the inexperience in Derry, Down and Donegal got the better of them..

Alas, its beginning to look like a Leinster Munster final (CorkvKerry V’s Mayo/Laois or Westmeath/Dublin) and may the best team win.. for the Ulster competition will be back next year!! ;)
