'I don't think the referee gave any sense of early-season leniency'

As you may have heard, there was a bit of a schmozzle between Tyrone and Armagh in their McKenna Cup clash yesterday.

Although there were a spate of red cards, both managers played down the severity of the incidents.

But how bad was it?

"I don't think the referee gave any sense of early-season leniency," said Andy Waters of the Irish News, adding that the brawl was a bit of "handbags".

"I don't think there were any serious digs thrown in it." 

As for the football itself, Waters believes Armagh manager Kieran McGeeney will take plenty of positives from the game despite coming out on the losing side.

Meanwhile, Tyrone were worth their win according to Waters.
