Sligo

Football
Connaght Finalists and qualifiers round 4.

Hurling
Rackard cup finalists

I agree completely.

Jaysus lads, its not hard to see why hurling is struggling in ulster. Do any of yez care?!?!!?

How do we think our county will do or what do we hope for?

Hurling : Give wexford a game, maybe sneak a win. Given their improved NHL i think that might be stretching it

Football : a third leinster would be an achievement, hope to god we can up the performances from the league, but fear we'll come a cropper when we meet quality oposition.

Armagh
football: AI semi-final by back door
hurling: reasonable result against Derry and final of Rackard cup 

[thebandit]

Armagh

Football - AIF 
Hurling - Bad

Monaghan
Football - AIQF (through back door)
Hurling - Worse

[ONeill]

Tyrone

Football: Lose to Fermanagh by 4 in the first round. Win at Westmeath in the qualifiers but lose to Meath. Mickey is hounded out of the county by the majority. He appeals the decision and wins with a sizeable population of the county forced into a plantation of Armagh. He redesigns the county and names it Tir Harte. British cartographers rebel but Mickey appeals and wins.

Hurling: Is that like rounders?

[Spiritof98]

Armagh

Football - Winners

Hurling - beat Derry in Ulster C'ship and win Nicky Rackard

All Ireland double!!

[westmayo]

Football: All Irealnd Semi-final
Hurling: Group stages of the Ring Cup, maybe knock out stages if lucky

[Mid Mon]

Cavan
Football- Ulster Finalists and win a game in the qualifiers.

Hurling-to actually win a game in the Nicky Rackard Cup would be nice.

Cavan to win 3 games in the Ulster Championship!!! Are u mad???

[ziggysego]

I go hurling at the weekends

[An Fhairche Abu]

Galway

Football: Connacht 1st round loss to Mayo, followed by backdoor wins until an All Ireland Q-final exit (unless we meet a very decent team  in the backdoor system, in which case an earlier exit).

Hurling: Depending on the avoidance of Kilkenny, an All-Ireland Semi-final apperance.

[maddog]

Tyrone . . .

Hurling - no idea!

Armagh
hurling - not sure

The orchard,
hurling – dunno

Armagh
Hurling: dunno

Real GAA people up there, no doubt about it.

Is there a problem with not knowing how they will cope with the step up (i.e Derry)?

Down and Derry/Antrim will be tough no doubt,but its good that we will have a break and a challenge against Monaghan in between 

[LaurelEye]

Longford

Football:

Victory over Westmeath, and sure we'll see how it goes from there. If we could beat Laois, then a Leinster final place should be achievable.

Realistically, Leinster quarter-final followed by a win or two in the qualifiers.

Hurling:

Rackard Cup final.

[Will Hunting]

Derry

Football: Beat Antrim I suppose, then get beat by Monaghan in the semi-final (because we can't win two games in a row!). Possible All-Ireland Quarter-Final appearance after that, but that's probably about the height of it. By the way, how does the qualifier system work now if there's only 3 rounds... will the teams beaten in the first round go into the same qualifier round as the teams beaten in the provincial semi-finals (bar the division 4 teams)?

Hurling:

[ExiledGael]

Fermanagh

Hurling, one win if we're lucky

Football, lose to Tyrone on a replay, sneak to the All-Ireland Q/F, Charlie signs out on a high
