    The First half was low scoring, Was there not 18 Points scored in the 1st half 11-7 Kerry if my mind serves me correctly

    The second half, I meant, of course.

    Certainly wasn't a classic in my opinion.

    Unbelievable nervous noise in the closing stages of that game. I remember being so wound up and tense that I have very little recollection of the actual game itself.

    On a side note, two games often overlooked when discussing great Armagh Tyrone clashes in the last decade are the first round games in 2002. They were both great high scoring encounters with exciting finishes. We should've lost the first day, only for Richard Thornton coming to the rescue.

    Galway V Kerry last year (I think). Rain lashing down. An pure exhibition of point taking. Frees, long distance, had it all...............one of the best matches of recent times!!!!!

    Michael Meehan hitting frees, his run up, it's like the first time he's about to ever kick a ball.

    It was two years ago after the Armagh-Wexford quarter-final. Never stayed on to watch it though thankfully, as Dublin was flooded that day i remember

    Same here, I honestly have little or no recollection of the match, or anything that went on in it bar a couple of incidents.

    There was. Plenty of long range kicking. Good strong tackling and brilliant movement. Deadly atmosphere. It's a wonder that team of players only won one AI

    Has to be the Dublin-Armagh All Ireland semi final 02. Was on the edge on my seat the entire match....To see Ray Cosgrove miss that free take upon the hill 16 which it hit the upright, will stay in every Armagh fans' memory for ever....
