Kerry v Galway clashing with the World Cup final. Both starting at exact same time at 4pm.

That is not a good idea I feel.

I doubt FIFA will change it despite the loss of viewers to those two aristocrats.
The World Cup is way too long and young people with iPhones have such low reserves of attention..

Those devices are just vehicles of capitalist propaganda, seafoid.
Hey Syf
I found ya a girlfriend.

FAO Galway folk, seen rumours in a couple of places elsewhere that our captain is a big doubt for the Kerry match, any definite info on that?
England haven't haven't been in a World Cup final since 1966 - you can't blame lads for pulling out of an amateur sports game which clashes with it.

It's going to be one of the truly great communal occasions of our time.

He didn't play for Annaghdown in the last round of the club championship because of a shoulder injury but as far as I know it was more of a precaution and he would be fine for Kerry, same goes for
Eoghan Kerin. Kerin would be a bigger loss than Comer I think. Very light on back cover.

Galway v Monaghan for a place in the All-Ireland semi-finals. Bank Holiday weekend, races weekend.

It'll be CHAOS!

I can't wait for the controversy.
When did Monaghan qualify for the Super 8's?
When you think you're fucked you're only about 40% fucked.

Comer and Walsh were both missing for Galway in last saturdays challenge against Roscommon

The team that will benefit most from the Super 8s is Kerry.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

Yeah you'd think with their age profile this year it's set up lovely for them.
Also I saw one of the retired Kerry lads going on about how the break between winning the provincials and the quarter-final wasn't ideal as the break was often too long.

Would say more of an issue would be the general lack of game time involved in making 1/4 final via a provincial win.

It's easy to say that when you think you're good enough to win those matches. This Kerry team aren't within a country mile of winning the AI.

Only time that will give the Dubs a game. Can't see other than Dublin V Kerry All Ireland final.

Given that they haven't beaten Dublin in the Championship in close to a decade I'm not so confident.

Looking at the two round robin groups i think its nicely set up for a repeat of the Div 1 final and especially if Galway manage to beat Kerry in round 1.

You've a history of incorrectly writing Kerry off. Kerry may fall short but to say they aren't within a country mile of winning the AI is patently nonsense. Only Dublin are definitely ahead of them and even then, Kerry might have the better forward line, albeit, still to be proven.
