Hard to know how the other Semi Final will go. The Rossies haven't met a half decent side yet which won't help their cause. If the supporters are anything to go by they are thirsty to prove to everyone that they are a good side. The reality is that if they lose at this stage they will be a side who walked through a weak Connacht and fell at the first real hurdle.
A Roscommon lad I know told me the other day, deadly seriously, that he'd love to get past Cork just to get another go at the Dubs and revenge for 2012.
Most Ros supporters I talk to would see Dublin and Cork as teams to beat with Cavan and Roscommon as even enough albeit having two very different football styles. And everyone knows the Dublin team of 2012 were as good a U21 team as has been seen. As for weak Connacht, when draw was made Ros were expected to travel to Mayo, Sligo and Galway to win a Connacht title. Few counties in Ireland would have relished that draw considering the talent Mayo and Galway had at their disposal. We'll have to wait until Sat to see how weak Connacht was. I'm hopeful anyway.
