Ulster’s big guns quiet ahead of duel

WITH the latest instalment of their evolving rivalry only days away, there was barely a whisper from the Armagh and Tyrone camps yesterday.

Cagey? Just a bit. Take Armagh. If they win on Sunday, they will have done so by beating four All-Ireland semi-finalists from the past two seasons, including the eventual 2003 champions.

Victory on Sunday will probably stand as one of the greatest achievements of Joe Kernan and his men. Except Big Joe ignored the bait.
