Like a fine wine, Tyrone just get better

TYRONE made a strong case for the value of experience at Healy Park, where they made a successful if unspectacular first defence of their Ulster SFC title.

Nine of those who played in yesterday’s two points win over Monaghan have passed the age of 30, and like a fine wine, appear to be getting better with time.

Central to this Red Hand victory were three of Mickey Harte’s longest serving warriors — Conor Gormley, Brian McGuigan and Stephen O’Neill.
