Will the Dubs get two home matches?

Likely to be Dublin and Galway. Should be played in Tullamore.

[so maybe a neutral venue like Croke Park.]

So Dublin v Mayo/Galway losers will NOT be in Croke Park?

Gaelic Grounds?
Clones?

It definitely won't be in Parnell Park, so maybe a neutral venue like Croke Park.

It hasn't happened in the new format so far, why would it happen this year?

I don't think you can read anything into league results at this time of year

They were very good in the league last year too bu dropped off come championship. Maskey, if he's not away, is probably helping. They must have a few at county too.

Yeah - you'd be hopeful we'd go through. I don't think the final appearance as a minimum is a reasonable expectation mind you. Knockout stages and see how we go from there. Same standard as any year tbh so it's a good test to see whether we've made much progress.

Is there an argument to say the loser of Mayo/Galway would be at an advantage in the group stages?

Only 1 team per group goes out. It's all about injuries and momentum then.
The surest way to success is to top the group and avoid the pre qf match.

Tough enough group. Wexford are not a bad side. You would still hope we go through. Tipp have fell away a lot so hopefully that continues...

Agree, could have been easier but we beat Wexford away last year and should be fit to beat Tipp at home. Sligo in a neutral venue isn't too daunting either. Need some first choice players back from injury 🤞

Some notable results at club level at the weekend. the one i'm surprised the most over is with the scoreline in mckenna park. St Endas gave Ballycran a licking.

obviously cran have more than a few away with county in kerry but st endas must be going well. they've beaten ballycastle, put 1-16 on the board against cushendall and beaten cran. going well!
