NFL Division 1 2024

2020 had 2 D3 teams in the provincial finals and they both won- Tipp and Cavan
It is much harder to imagine the odds coming off in Leinster simultaneously unless funding to Dublin is cut off completely and they revert to the traffic cone defensive system which featured in 2005.

Donegal academy coaches, performance support and logistics support have announced their decision to step down from their roles, saying that they have "lost all confidence in governance of Donegal GAA".

The move comes less than a week after the Head of Academy Development, All-Ireland winner Karl Lacey, stepped away from his role, citing a lack of support from the County Board.

The county's Under-20 and Under-17 management teams will remain in place because their teams are midway through this season's competitions...

The Donegal CB are a disgrace and have been for years.

By all accounts Lacey and his team were doing excellent work and setting good foundations for the future of the senior team. But at the same time its nice to see the rest of them walking out in support of Lacey.

Shane Walsh is currently in Australia on a prearranged trip following his involvement with Kilmacud Crokes during the club championship, which means Galway are currently without the entire full-forward line that started last year's All-Ireland final against Kerry."

That soft free in the Ros match means the game against Monaghan is a big one.

Good to see Armagh getting the coverage they deserve.

Which one?
Ref gave Galway a scatter of soft frees and gave 2 of our men joke yellow cards in the process.

Scatter is a bit disingenuous, one fairly iffy one alright that I didn't think was a foul and one absolutely egregious call for Galway's last score after which Roscommon got everything going, let's be honest here.
A clear foul on McDaid for a tap over free not given and as for when Glynn was bundled over in injury time, well if it was in Killarney or Dublin the ref would have been racing to get the whistle blown and his arm pointing to the Rossie posts. We have no home advantage, more Rossies in the crowd there last Sunday than Galway I'd say.

You didn't mention the 2 ridiculous bookings of Cregg and McCormack 
We had a good turn out alright, helped by the Tyrone result.
Should be a big crowd for the Armagh game as they usually get good numbers too.
It's all to play for still though.
But does anyone actually want to win the League?⁸

Is there league finals this year or are they gone? Don't think theres any team bar Kerry and Dublin who could turn their nose up at a league medal tbh. Maybe Tyrone since most of the panel have an all ireland and Mayo who won it not so long ago. Obviously a provincial or an all ireland is top of the priorities list for the likes of yourselves, us and Galway but a league winners medal would still be a big deal!

HQ recommended they should be scrapped due to congested season. Team to finish top of the table awarded the title. That way it would have given every team at least two weeks to prepare for the start of the championship.

Was voted on and was decided to keep league finals. As it stands If Mayo, Roscommon, Armagh were to reach it they'll only have one week to prepare for their championship opener.
