All Ireland Senior Football Qualifiers 2012

[sheamy]

that's a great bet

Bound to be a draw somewhere!

that's why I don't bet but nearly tempted here! Fancy Tipp on a high and at home to have too much energy and mobility for Antrim. Tyrone are twice as fit as Kerry, Kildare are certs and Laois should beat Leitrim ok (although that's the one could catch you out).

The All Ireland Football Quarter Final draw will be broadcast live on RTÉ Radio One's Saturday Sport at 8-30pm after this Saturday's Round 4 Qualifier games unless Clare v Kerry goes to Extra Time and then it won't be at 8-30pm but a bit later than that but like it still will be on so it will.

Another interesting draw. The qualifier draws have thrown up some great fixtures this year, it's just a pity that more of the games haven't been televised.

Kildare/Limerick/Sligo - would fancy Kildare to win both games although Kildare v Sligo if it happens could be a cracking game if Sligo can get their heads up again after yesterday's disappointment. They have two weeks this time to prepare so I'd have some hope that they can play to their potential in Round four. Verdict: Kildare

Tipperary/Antrim/Down/Donegal - Great draw for Tipp and Antrim, wouldn't have expected either to be in the last 12 at the start of the year. The winner playing the beaten Ulster finalist is not such a great draw but Tipp or Antrim will have momentum whereas the Ulster loser will have a six or seven day turnaround after losing an Ulster final so there's at least a possibility of a surprise quarter finalist here. Verdict: Donegal in Ulster, Down via the qualifiers.

Kerry/Tyrone/Clare - a great draw for everyone else other than these three teams, a top six team will be going out early this year. If Kerry v Tyrone isn't televised serious questions need to be asked about how our games are being promoted. Home advantage plus the benefit of a scare yesterday to swing it for Kerry, but they won't like being made to peak this early in the year. Verdict: Kerry

Leitrim/Laois/Meath/Dublin - Leitrim will be delighted to get another home game, despite the disaster against Mayo this year is turning out well for them. They will make it tough for Laois in Carrick and the result is not a foregone conclusion. I don't think Meath are as good as Kildare made them look and reckon Dublin will win Leinster. On that basis a Round 4 game against Meath who would have only a weeks turnaround from the Leinster final offers real possibilities for the winner of the Leitrim v Laois game. Verdict: Dublin to win Leinster, Laois to come through the qualifiers.

That would leave the quarter finalists as: Cork/Donegal/Dublin/Mayo and Down/Kerry/Kildare/Laois.

Happy enough with that effort.

Good work, did you invest?
