Venues for the Semis?
Meath v Kerry Portlaoise?
Tyrone v Connacht Breffni if Ros, Longford if Galway?

Portlaoise? Good god man have you any idea how far it is from places like Ballinskelligs to even Limerick!

Thurles at least I would hope and if that's not available, Nenagh or the Gaelic grounds.

from places like bettystown and ballinabrackey (both clubs have players on Meath team) portlaoise is same distance as from Kerry

You've been schooled already but just to reiterate the facts, Bettystown is 130km all on motorway pretty much or 90 mins drive from Portlaoise. Ballinskelligs, where one of Kerry players come from - is 282km or 3hrs 15m drive, from Portloaise. A quick look on google maps would tell you this.

Semple Stadium is only a slightly shorter journey from Ballinskelligs 244km. Bettystown is 195km, motorway for 75/80% of it.

Anyway, looking forward to a decent game. Meath are going well and games between the counties underage are always tough. Horrible memories coming back of an u21 semi final in Nenagh back in 1997 when we got absolutely rode by a ref from Donegal and lost by a point.

I've already schooled the person who was supposed to school me. But it's irrelevant where game will be played. Can't see us been beat. Only improving every game. Could play it in Tralee I'd still be fairly confident of winning. No disrespect to Kerry. Just don't see it. My main worry would be Tyrone of stopping us from winning all ire. I foresee a Meath Tyrone final. Sure we will play that in Killarney   

You've schooled nobody, you've just made a fool of yourself.

. Incorrect. I proved without doubt that ballinbrackey is more than a hour from oortloise. I know you goatsuckers don't like leaving healyrae land but for the majority of us it's no problem where we have to play to beat you.

Not too many beat Kerry....

Any potential surprises here ?  I think Antrim could be the dark horse here. Andy will have them primed for this.

Reckon Wicklow have a scalp in them as well.

A good result today against tricky opposition. Goal difference looking good too

And some people think America is a democracy.

It was never a democracy.

It was only a matter of which one from the ruling elites takes control every four years.

The UK is more or less the same at this point.

They are plutocracies now but they were democracies previously. It all goes in circles.

Disappointing for this promising minor team  but it was always out of their hands today. They needed firstly to win today which they did impressively but they needed  Monaghan to beat donegal today but Monaghan didnt need to win and Donegal did, so it was very unlikely that they were ever going to get through today in this position.

Not sure Jim should be leading this. As a manager the man was gifted every single benefit a team could possibly have. Is his suggestion going to be give each team home advantage and millions each year?
