Dublin and Kerry (and probably Mayo and Galway) may be the better teams but you can't beat ulster clashes for tight games and drama. Very little separating the div1 north teams and that's without last year's ulster champions in it

You could have just stopped after the first two teams there

The proof will be in the pudding.

It has been Dublin and then everyone else for a long time now.

And there are a dozen teams in the everyone else who could provide competitive games among each other.

The media are looking for someone to talk up outside of the Dublin team.

The media are part of the problem. They pretend that everything is normal..The best example is the All Ireland Final. The sacrificial lamb must have a chance if they can score goals Des.

I see Banty could be in trouble off the pitch. Not connected to football

What's this?

More than likely a handy win for Kerry today while anything is possible in Tuam but Dublin will still win.
Semis Dublin v Donegal and Tyrone v Kerry.
An improved level of performance by Ros today is the best we can hope for.

We're going to bring home the SAM

The rule basically is that it would be unfair on Donegal to play in the league final one week, then the preliminary round of Ulster the following week. Therefore, if they get to the league final, they will be awarded the league jointly with the other finalist. 

Same applies to any other teams in the same position in the other divisions. Not sure if there are any games apart from the Ulster prelim scheduled for the week after league final weekend.

Likely Dublin will beat Donegal and the issue won't arise

It's something I wasn't aware of either and came up in commentary of Mayo match earlier. I'm nearly sure they said there would be no League Final should Kerry be in it either?
