It seems that there isn’t a lot of money being wagered by Kildare supporters on their team. Paddy Power is offering the following odds: Dublin 1/7 Kildare 11/2.
Well Wexford and Meath couldn’t have made Dublin look better! No pressure on shooters, no pressure on defence.
Best for Dublin would be to come through a really tough game. With the objective being Sam, I’d honestly prefer to lose, than to win by 10-12 points, as we’d learn nothing from the latter, and we definitely have things to learn.
Last year i highlighted on here that Dublin was in bother. Less than convincing against Wexford where a mere 0-15 was scored and kept a mediocre Meath in the game until injury time, in that form it was of no surprise Dublin was eventually taken out by the first decent team they played.
As for Dublin right now league relegation seems to be a blessing in disguise they seem fitter and more prepared for this championship. Dublin overcame Wexford and Meath in ruthless fashion. On Saturday they should be beating Kildare by a minimal 8 points and come the end of this championship it will be either Dublin or the team that beats them that will win Sam.
