Wondering where were those big crowds at old qualifier games?
Only when the Rhus were playing as I recall.
Even then in 2022 Ros v Clare and Rhus v Kildare double header drew about 13k to Croker.
Anyway we have a system for next year.
As far as this year is concerned..
Donegal, Kerry, Armagh with Dublin, Tyrone, Galway.
Rest of us making up the numbers!
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

I'll take a bet that Dublin v Armagh will get twice that this year, as following events in Salthill more Dubs will come out in the hope of repeating the dose for the All Ireland finalists.
MAGA Make Armagh Great Again

No system is perfect but I think what we have currently is really good. Galway dublin on Saturday was a brilliant game. Okay, Galway are still in the competition but as a gaa fan I'm happy with that. I want to see the best players and teams still in at the business end of the competition. These groups will throw up a few dud fixtures now and again but there's more than enough humdingers to keep us all entertained before we get into knockout.

Quote from: Look-Up! on May 19, 2025, 12:11:10 AMVery assured Cavan performance today. GK switch before game ended up having a massive bearing on the result. Excellent performance and kickouts. Let us settle into game and grow in confidence. Then we smelled blood as the game went on and emptied the tank. Makes group very interesting now. Mayo got to go for broke.

👍 The other goalie, O'Rourke, totally shat the bed against Tyrone, aided and abetted by the outfield players playing like ducks in thunder. Galligan showed a bit of mettle dropping him.

Cavan beating Mayo in championship Louth winning Leinster. Must be a real throwback for ya 🤣

If 3 teams end up at the top of a group on 4 points will they use scoring difference from all games in the group or just the games between the 3 teams at the top?

I'd imagine it's  the total +/- difference from all games

Tis alright. All we need next  is  for Longford to win Leinster again

Any update on the Armagh/Donegal investigation? Would be strange to think no action taken after a player getting punched by 3-4 opposition players.

You would have thought it would have been completed by now given both teams are playing this weekend.

Sure let's have 2 games a week 50 weeks a year so. Do you think more and more games just makes things better?
