Newbridge haven't won in 35yrs, they be on the drink a week.

Out of interest what would have been the odds on Newbridge to win the Derry title before the championship started?
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

16/1 - 4th favourites after Glen, Slaughtneil and Magherafelt.

Where do we see it going lads? Scotstown v Kilcoo semi final?

Errigal maybe from the other

Was gonna guess fourth favs. Congrats to them. Gives plenty other teams in Derry hope and fair few in Ulster be chomping at the bit now. Let the games begin. Me, I'm away to the Elk 😜😜

May not win it but I think Clann Eireann will definitely cause an upset or 2.

(A) Enniskillen Gaels/Erne Gaels v Scotstown

Final (December 7/8)

Kilcoo v Clann Eireann final

Wouldn't put it past Errigal to get to final either

for me Clann Eireann have the biggest ceiling with the most scope to get better, my only concern is their lack of experience at this level as they're quite young. usually this time of year the experience, craft and know how gets teams over the line and this could handicap them.
They certainly have the talent and squad numbers to challenge and i suppose you get your experience from being there....We'll soon find out

No out and out favorite to win this.  Kilcoo and Scotstown both have experience in this competition, but they aren't the teams they once were. 

Clann Eireann have matured a bit and would have a strong team with some top top players, so they could challenge.  Errigal Ciaran if they focus would also fancy their chances. 

First time in a while where its been wide open, good to see 
I tend to think of myself as a one man wolfpack...

Big thing going against CE is that their key players,  Turbo, TK, McCambridge, haven't had a break. They have the ability to push on but the exertions from county and club may take their toll on them. Hope not but it's a real challenge

That's not an issue I think.

Glen lads have done it now for 2 or 3 years in a row. Club and county without a break.

Derry haven't won an AI and everything that goes with that. Not saying that CE won't challenge for Ulster but when the matches get tough and you've 5 minutes left and 2 points down it can take a huge mental strength to push on to win. There will be no gimmes in Ulster

Think they got a bit of a rest in the early stages of the championship.

Yeah think they all missed a  bit early in the championship. McCambridge is like a duracell bunny anyway so wouldn't be too worried about him.
