Leinster Senior Football Championship 2021

[Rossfan]

Couldn't find a thread on this so I thought why not start one?

Some interesting games this Sunday.

Offaly v Louth, Pairc Tailteann, 1.30pm.  John Maughan v Mickey Harte.

Carlow v Longford, Bord na Mona O'Connor Park. Carlow rising or lift off for the larries?

Wicklow v Wexford, Aughrim, 3pm -  the winner plays Dublin.

Are we guessing who winning the leister championship? 🤔🙄

To be fair they are all interesting ties

Carlow can be a banana skin but I would hope we have enough firepower up front as well as a pretty solid full back line to progress.

We had a very bad start in the League (Derry looks fitter than they should have been  ) but each game saw improvement and to avoid the hell that is Division 4 was certainly welcome.

Winners play The Royals.......who seem to be in all sorts of bother with the aul in-fighting. Bernard Flynn threw in the towel with the U20s and Andy McEntee is daily adding things to his list of things he wants to moan about.

Wicklow will beat Wexford and no amount of rosaries will save Louth from Offaly's skill.

Meath are seen historically as the team to put it up to the Dubs. They have taken embarrassing beatings from Dublin in the Championship despite making progress outside of this. To be a Meath Manager, Player or even supporter ha become a hard sell and not improving.

Kilkenny strong favourites.  Galway will put it to them. Wexford has come and gone

It's fair to say Galway are 5 points the better of the Cats, Kilkenny just shading Wexford who on turn are a point or two better than Dublin who are 4 points better than Antrim and Laois.

On the football front surely with all the resources Dublin have always had,  they have massively underachieved

Back with a great bet, Longford to get over 19.5 today v Carlow at 11/10. Will happen for sure. New manager Carew in and he got all out attacking style, in complete contrast to the Turlough O'Brien & Steven Poacher era where we just sat back and relied on Broderick Frees to win a low scoring game.

Maybe the winning margin in the final will fall this year.

FT Offaly 1-15 Louth 0-18. Extra time required to separate the two.

[MayoBuck]

Gaelic football is a great game when there are evenly matched teams playing!

[Wildweasel74]

Extra game even though a defeat paid off for Offaly

[Blowitupref]

2-4 to 0-1 in extra time, Louth used up all of the energy to bring that game to extra time and had nothing left. Result Offaly 3-19 Louth 0-19.

[Blowitupref]

Wicklow 0-14 Wexford 2-11.  Mini shock there.
