Poor Thomas McPhillips' substitution was no surprise after having been roasted by an on-fire Darragh Canavan early on. He was moved off the Errigal Ciaran man but now has departed with the more experienced Shane Carey drafted on.

Monaghan have just moved Ryan O'Toole on to Darragh Canavan after the Tyrone goalscorer tormented debutant Thomas McPhillips for the opening 22 minutes but is the damage already done for the Farney men?
Canavan has been absolutely sensational for the Red Hands so far.
