Roscommon should go for the League. The ony danger is going for the league is that you get hockeyed in the final, as Derry did some years ago. But this year there are no Dubs, Kerry are not worried about the league, and whoever else gets to the final will not be that much better than Roscommon, an embarrassing defeat is unlikely.

The League is very different to the all Ireland. Kerry and Dublin don't have a stranglehold on it.
New York, Laois, Longford and Monaghan have all won the League.

Over time it has been a more open competition.  Neither Monaghan nor Laois have won the All Ireland. This year is interesting because of the championship uncertainty as someone noted below.

What has that to do with the present. Monaghan will be more than happy to retain their Div 1 status. If Kerry find their way into this years league final they'll probably win it again.

Kerry don't need to win the league. They need to retain Sam.
Dublin are in Division 2. 2 predators are removed.

Do you see Kerry losing the league final if they reach it this year? Dublin are in Div 2 for a reason and looked less than convincing in their performances against Cork,Kildare.

After three rounds Connacht teams are 1st,2nd and 3rd in Div 1 so credit where it's due.  On the topic of Connacht football Summerhill Sligo reached Hogan cup final beating St Brendans Killarney by 3 points this afternoon. First Sligo school to reach the All Ireland final for nearly 40 years, add in Sligo's recent Minor,U20 success they are moving upwards.

Kerry Armagh game start delayed for 10 minutes because of crowd congestion outside the ground.

No more talk about Dublin supporters arriving late please!

Great rendition of the anthem there by the lad with the guitar. Fair play to 6,000 Armagh supporters making it to Tralee. Looks a great atmosphere.

Kerry getting joy on the turn overs 0-3 to 0-1 ahead after 13 minutes.

rory

Kerry forwards very good at fouling the Armagh men coming out. Slows the attack down. Smart play.
