Tipp v Mayo will be the TV game.
you'd think so, but given the opposition in Mayo to having their games on pay tv, maybe it'd be prudent to give them their wish and show someone else that might appreciate being on telly !

I don't suppose the fact that our hurlers are up in Croke Park in the Meagher final that Saturday will mean our qualifier would be on the Sunday instead, or just at a later throw-in like 7?

Kildare are in the Christy Ring Final too, we will probably be on the Sunday.

I know, I just wish that we could all see Rouse tell Sky to f**k off.

One thing for sure is the qualifiers are throwing up interesting games while provincial are dull and predictable. I tbink the end may be in sight for provincial championships.

Round 2 games all look fairly predictable, while the provincial championships this year already had shock wins for Carlow v Kildare, Fermanagh v Monaghan and Galway v Mayo...
Would agree Louth v Leitrim probably the hardest game to call. Hopefully we see a few shocks in round 2 to make it a bit more interesting. I can imagine Tipp v Mayo will be the live game.


Is there a live qualifier ? The Cork Kerry Munster final is on the Saturday and the ulster and Leinster finals are on the Sunday.
Cork v Kerry is 7pm on Saturday 23rd, so presumably there'll be a live R2 qualifier at 5pm

You'd imagine whoever broadcasts it would want Tipp v Mayo?? Cork v Kerry is Páirc Uí Chaoimh so that would work..

Fingers crossed. I'm at a bloody Picture This concert that evening.  :-\

Carlow 15/2 Tyrone 1/10
Cavan 2/5 Down 11/4
Leitrim 13/8 Louth 8/11
Longford 2/1 Kildare 4/7
Offaly 7/4 Clare 4/6
Sligo 5/2 Armagh 1/2
Tipp 5/1 Mayo 2/7
Waterford 11/1 Monaghan 1/25
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Tipp 5/1 Is a massive price. I might put a few pound on that. Mayo are not in good shape despite beating a v poor limerick. Down v good price too, I only expect 2/3 points between cavan and down.

Mayo should win by about 6 points so 5/1 about right. If the Down keeper kicks the ball out to Cavan players as much as he did v Donegal yesterday then Cavan should win by comfortable margin.

on the gaa website the Mayo Tipp game has the sky logo beside it, Cork Kerry munster second round final, at 7 on RTE.

If the first game overruns then there'll not be the messing like last weekend.

How many matches would Armagh need to win to get to the Super 8? Would that be three since the provincial finalist losers need to be added to the mix?

While this possible, you could beat Sligo, Louth and Lapis say, I'm not sure it would be entirely a good thing. Although you'd have one big game in Armagh.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Thanks, Dec. armaghniac, why do you think that making it to the Super 8 would not be entirely good?

Three hammerings in a row?
