One has to feel that Warrenpoint have a strong chance of making the final. If they draw the winners of the Duffs or the Bridge/Harps they could definitely have a shot at least.

The point will surely believe they have a good chance of making it to the Final. Big Murdock a boost for them at Full back. Expect Kilcoo Burren to be a feisty affair as usual and can see Burren edging it. Other 2 senior games tough to call. DarraghCross, Shamrocks both to progress in the intermediate. Glenn and Liatrom game of the championship I feel, some great players from the games I seen, Mc Crickard, Sands and Bagnall all been impressive.

Frank O'Hare very wide open but Burren and Point seem to be ahead of the rest.Clonduff a possibility but team spirit isn't there at the minute - friction on a few levels within I'm led to believe but the yellas have a history.
I don't like calling it an Intermediate or Junior I am more inclined to call Intermediate -'Reserve type ' and Junior -'Thirds Type' but these games are of little value except maybe in terms of helping tham become senior.
Just get a feeling Burren will shade it and Point can make it competitive and give a bit of glamour to Tom O'Hare that has been missing since the glory days of The Bridge.
I think it would take much more than these two teams to achieve that. Need a complete change to how football is played is what would be needed. But here's hoping..............

My god are yew downjim in disguise. That's some statement to come out with on intermediate and junior championship.

Centre 3/4

Are Burren ahead of the rest based on their draws with the town and bridge or scraping past half a Rostrevor team? Asking for a friend....

I don't believe so. It's an open competition

Can't wait for Ballyholland v RGU play off , looking very like it

terrifictommy

No real surprises tonight I see

maldini

Surprised Shamrocks beat Ballymartin

Cuan12

Can't wait for ballyholland v rgu play off  my arse, if it's football , ballyholland lose, if it's fighting ballyholland  come second , and then it's all downhill , happy days , but sure,aren't  all the best coaches in south down

terrifictommy

I did put Ballymartin for the win but that game could always have gone either way, goals win games in this case.

PTC

so Castlewellan nearly relegated it looks like some bad times ahead for them

terrifictommy

I bet very few would have put them in this position at start of the year, me included.

Burren are a championship club that win championships - tradition carries a lot.The Point on the other hand could be on verge of creating history.Yourself I'm delighted you are promoted but I doubt you'll stay up-too many holidays and holiday homes your way, and Clonduff will walkover you.
Personally it would be good for the county if the Point could win it , turning into a real sports town with the success of Warrenpoint Town and a real goodwill within the town.Others could learn from it.
