Trying to work out the draw

Monaghan cant play Derry but can play Kerry or Dublin
Derry can't play Monaghan but can play Kerry or Dublin
Kerry cant play Dublin (becuase derry cant play monaghan)
Dublin cant play kerry (as above)

This year was a rebuilding year for Mayo . A League win and a qf aren't too shabby. They also learnt how to time wins in the round robins.

It the beginning of a new cycle.

Mayo flat as expected. The Cork loss caught up with them!

FT Dublin 2-17 Mayo 0-11.  Not the close and competitive contest that many pundits and experts. 
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Kerry and Dublin have shown this weekend to be a real level above the rest. Derry/Monaghan are going to need to do something extraordinary to prevent a Kerry v Dublin AI final

I was watching a video about Sarsfields camogie team in Galway who won the club All Ireland recently.
in 1992 the club won the club hurling all Ireland . 10 of the players on the hurling team had a daughter on the camogie team.

Mayo could do worse than investigate the descendants of the forwards in 1936, 1950 and 51

Almost the same score line as Kerry vs Tyrone. Hard to believe Tyrone and Mayo both loose by 12 points.

Very good performance from Dublin,  credit where credit is due. Went for it, played nice brand of football.

You're probably right but we should also say that both Mayo and Tyrone were really poor this weekend

3/4 teams who played last weekend were put out. 3 weeks in a row took its toll.  Definitely looked like a bit of fatigue in Mayo and Tyrone. Makes Monaghan win even more impressive.

Sure but I'd say that they were made look poor. Both 1st halves were competitive - but when Kerry and Dublin poured on the pressure, Tyrone and Mayo had absolutely no answer

Or Armagh less impressive.

It's a silly advantage for the 4 group winners. All teams need a 2 week break.
