Kilmacud Sevens

[Coolio]

The most over-hyped commercially sponsored money-fest in GAA history.

These guys are laughing all the way to the bank and the poor oul Ulster tourists who have nothing better to do in Dublin of a Saturday fall for it every year hook line and stinker!

So of course we will win it ....

Leo thats an awful statement...the sevens is a wonderful competition full of tradition and friendship. Don't knock it till you try it

[Celt_Man]

I was there once before absolutely great day out - hopefully will get to it this year as I think I've a ticket for Sunday and wouldn't mind making a weekend of it

[passedit]

Been there as a visitor (only 10 mins walk from house) for most of the past 10 years and I can confirm it's a good day out.

Been at more football than hurling but that would be in my nature.

To paraphrase Christy Moore - you'd never know who'd you'd see hanging about.

Same as that SS (apart from the ten minute walk bit obviously) especially the Christy Moore bit. Also the football from the 1/4s up is usually top notch. My only criticism would be the recent innovation of the beer tent in the actual grounds. The walk back and forward to the clubhouse was a great way of pacing yourself.

Any ideas of the teams or groups for the weekend?

Good day out and a great way to start the footballing weekend, apart from the beer in plastic glasses!

Fixed that.

St. Gall's extremely confident of winning this again. Get out of Group 4 and there's nothing between them and the final. Apparently.

[SambaSaffron]

Is there any bookies taking bets for the sevens?

Normally is if I recall, anyone know when the odds will be out?

[rossglass]

Are there normally tickets floating about for the AI Final at the Sevens and if so do they normally go for around face value?

[rrhf]

Are the Moy not big contenders for this?

It's football Sam so hotels have been booked, supporters have a bus going and the players are flying down this year, Easy Jet have laid on a jet

[SambaSaffron]

What happened St Galls in the hurling sevens?

[Wee Shea]

Is there any bookies taking bets for the sevens?

Normally is if I recall, anyone know when the odds will be out?

The odds were up on Paddy Power late on the Friday I think last year, then Boyles put up their tweaked odds on Saturday morning. Didn't really give much time to the punters.

If I recall St Galls were 7/2 favourites last year, Moy were about 10/1 I think? Clonduff were a big price and I think the team backed themselves and paid for their weekend away!

[SambaSaffron]

Wonder why the Moy aren't in it this year.

[lolafrola]

There doesn't seem to be as many Ulster teams this year for some reason, maybe the Mexicans want to win it for a change
