Well said!
I expect the 4 Quarter Finalists will be Mayowestros, Dublin, Galway and Derry.
The PQFs I expect to be Kerry, Tyrone, Ros, Monaghan home games v one of  Donegal, Kildare, Armagh, Cork.
Some possibility of Donegal beating Monaghan. Would be some craic IF Louth bt Kerry while Cork bet Mayowestros would mean Kerry out!
Similarly a Westmeath win over Tyrone and Armagh get something off Galway = Tyrone gone.
No more than Sligo taking a point off Dublin won't be happening.

Agree with the part in bold. Donegal would have to score a lot as they most likely will concede a good bit. Difficult to see them becoming a defensively orientated team in space of a few weeks.
Is it plausible that Armagh will rest anyone who is borderline injured, as they effectively would have to bust their lungs to beat Galway by more than Tyrone beat Westmeath to get second in the group. They will be out again the next weekend no matter what.

For Armagh it's bust a gut against Galway or potentially face Kerry next time out.
It's a big decision in a town called malice

[Eire90]

if cork take a hammering from mayo and louth beat kerry say by 2 points would  kerry not get third on better point difference than cork.

[seafoid]

This weekend is effectively the start of jeopardy.

[orchardarmy02]

Preliminary quarter final draw Monday morning?

[blanketattack]

if cork take a hammering from mayo and louth beat kerry say by 2 points would  kerry not get third on better point difference than cork.

If Kerry lose by 2 and Cork lose by 5 and Kerry outscore Cork by 4, (or outscore by 3 but outscore in no. of goals by 1) Kerry get 3rd.

[sam03/05]

Can teams play each other who met in previous rounds
For example can tyrone now draw Monaghan again?

Well blow me down with a feather.

"The four quarter-final winners shall play against each other in the Semi-Final based on a draw"  - is this accurate?

What's your concern re why it might not be accurate?
The old rules re rotation of provincial champions can't apply as provincial champs may not make the QF, or you could get two provincial champs playing each other in the QF.

[GAABoardMod5]

"The four quarter-final winners shall play against each other in the Semi-Final based on a draw"  - is this accurate?

I presume it to mean there is no link between groups of provincial winners.  Previous competition rules were "the Ulster champions, or the team that beat them, will play Munster winners, or the team that beats them".

No such words written this year, except teams from the same group cannot meet again until the final...at least that's my reading of it. 

I've been wrong before though...

I wasn't aware that had been removed - thought semi-finals were still pre-designated, provincially.  Thanks.
