SCORING GOAL

O'Neill says Orchard plan to keep hitting big tallies

- BY PADDY TIERNEY

IT was one of the most eye-catching performances of the opening round of the National Football League.

A tally of 1-27, 1-25 of which came from play, and a 12-point hammering of Monaghan was as good a start as Kieran McGeeney could have hoped for.

But midfielder Callum O'Neill knows the Armagh boss (below) will still not be satisfied with certain elements of their play and is sure to demand further improvement when Galway visit the Box-It Athletic Grounds tomorrow evening.

“We've had a lot of good battles with them over the years, from 2021 up to the All-Ireland final and every time they come to the Athletic Grounds it’s a good battle especially at a full house,” said O'Neill.

“It's early doors in January so it's hard to know where everybody is at but we'll focus on ourselves, at what we can get better at, and hopefully we'll have an improved performance at the weekend.
