Usually there's an upset. So of the teams you selected, which game do you think there is the best chance of an upset.

For me Armagh v Wexford.
and Tyrone winning would also be an upset. So you have 2 upsets there Ziggy


I´ll go for a Wexford upset, on the basis that the Leinster Final was a freak perf.

Its a trail of tears for Ulster this year

Armagh v Wexford - tight, but I think Wexford will prove too poor at the back and Armagh will run out winners by 4.

Galway v Kerry - Galway to upset the appletart and win by 3, Kerry have been looking out of sorts all year, Gooch hasn't performed and there's a limit to how effective constantly hoofing high balls into Donaghy will be.

Cork v Kildare - It's difficult to see Kildare winning this, but then again Cork have proved extremely ineffectual in the majority of their recent Croker appearances, I think however their greater array of attacking options should just about see them through, I wouldn't be shocked if Kildare did sneak through though.

Dublin v Tyrone - this appears to me to be the most clear cut of the quarters, I just can't see Tyrone coming through

his holiness nb

Dublin (by 5-8)
Kerry (by 1)
Armagh (by 6-9)
Cork (by 4)

Tyrone people can be reassured that my predictions are usually crap  ;)

Like the bookies odds above, I would have Kildare as the longest of shots for an upset. Can't believe they'll get within 6 of Cork.

The rest I find very difficult to predict.

If Galway hadnt been so bull-headed about wanting to play in Croke Park I would have given them a great chance of an upset. But I can't see them beating the Kingdom in Croker.

In the semi I have no doubt that Cork will give their best Croke Park performance v Kerry, and it'll be a very tight game.

I havent a clue how the other side of the draw will go. Intriguing matches.

Tyrone
Armagh
Cork
Galway

Overall prediction...Tyrone to come from nowhere and lift Sam!! (OK, I'll take more water wiith it!!)
Antrim - One Of A Dying Breed of Genuine Dual Counties

Reckon Dublin & Cork are the two best bets. The other two games could be closer.

Dublin
Cork
Armagh
Kerry (just cannot see Galway beating them)
