Bookies have it.

Longford slight favourites over Fermanagh 10/11
Offaly favourites over Antrim 8/13
Westmeath slight favourites over Cavan 10/11

Anyone think there's great value in Tipp at home to Down. Underdog 9/4. I know there's a consensus Down are improving but they didn't win a game last year.

Seen Tipp v Waterford in the McGrath and they played really well ( I know it was Waterford ) . Playing a different system from last year which was very defensive and counter attacking . More attacking this year and getting the ball into the inside Forward line quickly , Steven O`Brien has been moved to Full Forward , big lad wins a lot of ball and lays it of which really suits Sweeney and O`Connor . Podge Feehan back in Midfield great foot passer will supply plenty of ball inside . Unfortunatly Jack Russell is unavailable will be back from injury in a couple of weeks

Unlucky not to beat Limerick in the McGrath and from what I hear looking very lively in training ! Don`t take Tipp for granted ! !

Why is Michael Quinlivan not committing this year? He was travelling last year so not around but thought he'd be back on the Tipperary panel. Robbie Kiely retired,he was a good half back.

Longford unable to build on their pre-season success. Good win for Fermanagh and according to shannonside radio commentary said Longford was lucky the margin was just 7 points. FT Fermanagh 0-15 Longford 0-8
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

I have a funny feeling Donnelly will prove to be a good manager for Fermanagh. Pressure on Longford already.

Very good win from Fermanagh that. Longford were going well pre season.

Cavan missing some important players tomorrow not as confident looking at our line up. Really lacking scoring forwards big time as it is, and Lynch , McKiernan and James Smith out injured it seems

Yeah. It was a mixture of Fermanagh good/Longford bad. And yes, Fermanagh shud have won by more.

Onwards to Westmeath next week in Longford.

A marquee win for Fermanagh. They might be dark horses.  Longford disappointing but it's still January

Lynch named on the bench. I'd also expect changes on that team named. Always a risk of an injury, or someone passing a fitness test in between teams handed in on Wednesday and game on a Sunday

Down well on top of Tipp

1-6 to 0-2 ahead at half time. Tipp two scores came from frees.

FT Down 2-11 Tipperary 1-11

Relieved to get the win as it is first league win since 2021.

Down had Niall mcparland sent off at start of second half, made it more nervy than it should have been

Good start for Down. Looked to be well in control until Niall McParland sent off. Did well to hold on. First game away to Tipp always going to be a tricky affair.
