Any ideas who will finish up top scorer in the championship 09? Think it was John Doyle last year. Michael Meehan looks one of the more likely ones. Meehan plays London this weekend and should score heavily. You would expect Galway to have at least 4 games this Summer.
Yeah Meehan must be favourite, dont think theres another stand out candidate in Connaught though.
Speaking from a northern perspective, Paddy Bradley and Tommy Freeman would be his nearest Ulster rivals. You wouldnt expect many games from Down, Cavan or Antrim. Fermanagh dont score much and Donegal dont seem to have a consistent candidate, maybe McFadden or Murphy but I dont think they will be up there with Bradley or Freeman. Armagh free takers dont score that much from play and Tyrone can score heavily but with a good spread of scores, though a fully fit O'Neill would definitely be in contention. That leaves Derry and Monaghan who have clear leading scorers in the Bradleys, Freeman and Finlay, with Tommy and Paddy out in front.
From the rest of the country Cork seem to have a good spread of scorers as do Kerry but you would have to fancy the Gooch to be up there, maybe one of Donnacha O'Connor or Daniel Goulding. Harder to predict how Leinster teams will do, being a more competitive province than Munster or Connaught, but think John Doyle is definitely in contention. I dont think Wexford will do as well this year so not including Mattie Forder.
So heres my list of contenders, im sure its missing someone!
Meehan
Paddy Bradley
Freeman
O'Neill
Gooch
O'Connor/Goulding
John Doyle
Had a look at the odds on Ladbrokes, Eoin Bradley at 50/1 is good value IMO. He was Derrys best forward in the league, think he just scored a couple less than Paddy. Also think he is due to have a big championship as the signs are he has really come on under Cassidy. Colm McCullagh and Mark Vaughan are also available at 50/1
Funny I just pm'd SidelineKick and corn02 about this very thing this morning as I am looking to have a couple bets on this... Also the player of the year betting which can be very heavily influenced by high scoring...
Meehan has to be in with a shout big time and if Derry are going to go as far as they would like then Paddy Bradley should be up there, maybe even Eoin too??
Is Meehan not injured?

What counts against Eoin is that he doesnt take the frees. Paddy B from the right and Barry McGoldrick/Mark Lynch from the left. Even if Paddy goes off James Kielt may be elected to take them from the right.
However he scored 18 in the league and I think he will improve more than most of the other contenders with summer football. Also he is probably Derrys top goal scorer at present, though we have been short on green flags.
Its not likely but 50/1 is very good value IF you have Derry down to have a good championship

I expect him to have a very good year in what could be his last. Though, I don't think we'll get far enough to allow him to get close to top scorer :(
What about the guy Carson with the terrible nickname.....Blobby? He scored 0-6 on Sunday for fermanagh!

Sorry lad, just assumed the Kernans were taking frees for armagh who dont score much from play. TBH havent been following who's been scoring for armagh all that closely this league but for some reason had it in my head that mcdonnell wasnt playing up to his usual and seem to remember some folks giving out about his free taking, but could be dead wrong there.
In fairness, I would have mcdonnell in there but for the fact that I think himself and armagh might be in slight decline.
Then again, armagh seem to have been getting pegged as in decline for years now!

He seems to have been showing patches of top form again recently, and I think his free taking is more consistent now. I've no doubt he'll finish as Armagh's top scorer this year but sure we might only get 2 or 3 games. Maybe if we got a couple of handy draws in the qualifiers and Stevie knocked in a few goals you never know, but I wouldn't be rushing out to put any money on it :-\
Has anyone a list of winners from past years?
Or prices for this year? Nothing on boyles or pp. Think Meehan might be worth a few quid alright
There's prices on Ladbrokes, but I can't access them where I am at the min. Can anyone post them?
Think Meehan and gooch are favs at around 8s

Maybe it's just my Monaghan bias but Tommy Freeman at 33-1 looks quite good to me! He was only 7 points off the top in 2007 and we only got to a quarter final, if we had a bit of a run he could rack up a bit.
Freeman 33/1 :o
There's a lot of value in that bet
if armagh have a good run in the qualifiers ronan clarke at 50/1 is amazing value

Nah don't think so, he doesn't take frees. Look back through the top 3 players for the last few years and every single one of them was a free taker.

That has to be the bet. He's only 12-1 on Ladbrokes!
For the years were the scores were posted, it is strange that in the 3 years Kerry won it they didn't have a player featured in the top 3, but in 2005, 2008 Cooper made the top 3. Does this suggest a greater range of score-takers is the key to them being successful?

Just lobbed £5000 on McCullagh
I had Mortimor at 10/1 in 2004 thinking he might score heavily in the first game and hoping for a run after that. He scores something like 1-13 in New York and went into AI final only needing 3 points to finish top. He scored one - the scut. A Kerry friend of mine was into him for about 200 quid. He got some funny looks above. Roaring for Kerry and going nuts every time Mort got near the ball as welll. The point he got was a great goal chance and there was yer man effing and blinding when he put it over. Gas. Well ye had to be there I suppose.

As far as I know Meehan's fine. I think PJ has a slight knock though.
What about the prodigy Aidan O'Shea of Mayo? On 1-3 already.
dont know about meehan, mayo always do a great job of keeping him quiet. After tyrone NFL game against dublin i was ready to put my house on Stephen O neill. If he can keep fit and tyrone take the back door then he is the man. But will he stay fit..... doubtful.
I genuinely believe mayo will reach last 4 at the very least so Conor Mort would stand out but will he play against Leitrim/ Roscommon. John Doyle a great bet, fancy Kildare to go far, Mcgeeney has them in some shape.
No one think there might be a bit of value in cavanagh at 20-1? Third highest last year I think.

I'd stick a few bob on Eoin Bradley this year as a dark horse

Christ, dont be tempting fate. We re not sure we ll be playing them at all yet. Only messing. I ve factored that in. He plays London, then Sligo. Sligo at home no daws but you d expect Galway to be mean about this after 2007. So you d expect them to reach the Connacht final where I would hope Mayo will be as well. Thing is we might do a reasonable holding job on him from play but he can nail 45s and loads of dead ball. And even from scraps he could bag 1- 2 from play besides no problem. What I m saying is even well held he could score 1-8.
Fact that Conor did nt play against NY gives him zero chance. Even in 2004 he only scored one goal (v New York). He s not a real goal threat. Surprised he s so mean odds now. Dillon and O Sé as likely maybe.
You'd think that whoever loses the Kerry/Cork clash could have a run of extra games through the qualifier route...I think they join the qualifiers in round two since their clash in early June is a provincial semi-final.
So Gooch or Goulding would be the choice following that logic.
A lot goes on the luck (or fix) of the qualifiers draw though.
Freeman at 33/1 is the best value bet ive seen on here. If Monaghan can make an all ireland semi or draw a weak team or 2 in the qualifiers he will have to be right up there.
Eoin Bradley at 50/1 isnt bad either but not as generous as the odds for Freeman who apparently has scored 5-18 in division 2 this year. He is a proven, consistent scorer who takes the frees and penaltys and plays for a consistent, solid, top 7/8 team.
mayo have a meaner defence this yr but see ur point about meehan, always has a few scores in the bracket no matter how bad he is playing. Still wouldnt be my bet, galway very flaky, nice footballers but missing a kevin walsh/dara o se. Until they get someone right to partner bergin (at full fitness) then they wont be doing anything special...
My top 4 bets:
John Doyle (kildare will get to quarter finals at the least)
Tommy Walsh ( will we see him take over the right footed frees for kerry with sheehan presumably losing his place, goal threat also and with donaghy out will be right in small square. I think cork gonna win munster with all kerrys injury probs and failure to get a no.3 in the league. Kerry will have a few extra games in the qualifiers)
Paddy Bradley (Derry could win ulster this year, i expect tyrone to go back door route)
Colin Cooper (will take more frees with sheehan gone)
LoneShark goes for Meehan

Call it a team ethic thing, or perhaps it's simply the result of a culture where being too public is to put yourself in the firing line, but one thing we don't really do in Ireland is the cult of the MVP. Followers of American sports will know all too well of our transatlantic cousins' fondness for nominating one player to rule them all, the famed Most Valuable Player - but in Ireland, that's not really our thing. We do hurler and footballer of the year certainly, but how many hurling fans out there, if picking an All Ireland XV, would have Eoin Larkin as the first name on their teamsheet? That's not meant as any disparagement towards the James Stephens forward who had a fantastic season in 2008, however not even his most fervent admirer would say that Larkin is likely to be remembered in the same revered way as Mullinahone's Eoin Kelly, or King Henry, or even Joe Canning.
In football, the title of Ireland's best player is even more contentious. Does one go for the unstoppable power of Kieran Donaghy, or the tireless work ethic and immaculate support and link play of Brian Dooher? Perhaps Mattie Forde's lethal scoring instinct or Seán Cavanagh's dynamism is what floats your boat, or even the utter dependability and impregnability of Graham Canty? Any one of these answers would be legitimate shouts for the accolade, as would four or five others, but as far as Off the Ground is concerned, if any one player could be persuaded to move to his native Ferbane and to don the green jersey of the west Offaly club, his first choice would be the magical citóg from Caltra, Michael Meehan.
Any great player steps up on the biggest stage and last season's display by Meehan against Kerry in Croke Park was one of the finest individual displays that this writer has ever witnessed. In the absence of any great scoring support from his team-mates, Meehan single-handedly took the fight to Kerry in a crucial challenge match and converted scores from all over the field. He was utterly unstoppable in a vital game against top class opposition and as a player, that's essentially ticking all the right boxes.
However Player of the Year, as we have covered above, is usually a sop to the All Ireland winners, so instead Off the Ground is going to endorse Meehan in another fashion - by backing him to be top scorer in the All Ireland Football Championship.
Despite the championship getting underway last weekend, this market has only just hit the streets and while it is a very open contest, Meehan looks to have a lot of cards in his favour. He opens his campaign with a nice turkey shoot against London, while another large tally is likely to be on the cards in the Connacht semi final against Sligo. From there on the fixtures will be competitive, but Galway look very well equipped to perform strongly this year and this writer likes their chances of playing at least five games this year.
Unquestionably other counties who hit the qualifiers early on will play more, but very few other counties have players who are guaranteed to score six or seven points per game in the same way that Meehan is. Allowing for a goal or two along the way and maybe a few extras against London, Meehan should take no more than four games to cross the thirty point barrier which is generally the line that players have to cross to get into the top four places in this market. Galway are all but guaranteed to play four games, so Michael Meehan at 7/1 is well worth a 2pt each way bet on the Top Scorer market for this year's football championship.
The bulk of the value is in the place part of the bet, but even at 7/1, it's a good way to get involved in Galway this year. Off the Ground has put it on the record several times already this season that he expects good things from the Tribesmen this year (in the BIG BALL code only folks!) and if that happens, it's a safe bet that Michael Meehan will be one player who'll be getting his name on the scoresheet with regularity. Get this bet into your antepost book and unless you happen to be a native of Tourmakeady or Tourlestrane, you'll be cheering on every one of them.
Goulding or Doyle. If Kildare get a good start they could be a force to be reckoned with in the championship, Doyle is one of the best when on form

Grumble. Should have kept me mouth shut.
Meehan wont be top scorer. He's gonna be a very marked man, could see teams adopting 2 men on him if possible. Nicky joyce is a good outside bet if you want to pick a Galway player. Hitting a bit of form and i think he hits the frees from the right (maybe conroy). would be a good bet for connacht anyway.
See Boyles have cut MM down to 9/2 now after Sundays exploits... By the sounds of things it was a very laxadaisacal (sp?) display from Galway so I am not happy, he should have got some more...

My bets are half cooked with PB pulling out and Freeman still suspended.
B Brogan Dublin 2-10
D O'Connor Cork 2-9
A Smith Kildare 3-4
J Doyle Kildare 0-13
M Meehan Galway 1-9
B Grogan Tipperary 1-9
S Armstrong Galway 1-8
T Hannon Wicklow 0-11
R Carson Fermanagh 0-11
Paddy Bradley has fairly catapulted up the list after his exploits at the weekend...
Brogan continues his rich vein of form at the weekend...
B Brogan Dublin 2-17 23
P Bradley Derry 3-12 21
M Murphy Donegal 0-18 18
B Grogan Tipperary 1-15 18
T Hannon Wicklow 0-16 16
D O'Connor Cork 2-9 15
I Ryan Limerick 1-12 15
A Smith Kildare 3-6 15
J Doyle Kildare 0-15 15
C Ward Meath 0-14 14
Looks like PB my best hope of getting some money, I am willing to forefeit my other bet of Derry exiting in the qualifiers to get the other bet, then hopefully get Meehan up for a place... Hoping Mayo beat Galway so they get an extra game under their belt...

I Ryan (Limerick) 33/1
S Cavanagh (Tyrone) 50/1
C Mortimer (Mayo) 66/1
A Brogan (Dublin) 80/1
My bets beat, needed Galway to go on a run.
A good run in the qualifiers is crucial it seems, the likes of Murphy racking up high scores along the way.
Brogan was going good, all depends on whether you think they can scalp Kerry or not?
f**k sake, I shouldn't have put your bet on Nail. Rippin now.

You would have done some sweating though all through the Galway matches, praying for an injury!
