Derry end up beating either of them, Mayo a different matter.

On current form I wouldn't be too sure. Neither county would be short of motivation and would be playing at home. I don't think Derry can sort their problems out in the space of a week.

Derrys performance against Westmeath won't beat Tyrone or Louth.

Derry and Galway beat Westmeath by 4, Armagh by 5. McEvoy was back on Sat and we'll likely have 2 if not 3 other starters back for next weekend. It's the hope....

Derry would beat Louth, got over the line against Westmeath and they are around the same level as Louth.    Mayo in MacHale Park is probably the hardest draw Derry could get.

Think the whole country is looking Tyrone vs Derry.

Will it be live before the watershed?

Never beat the deeler

Not sure its been said on here but why in the name of God would you hide this draw away on a Monday morning.
Do it live on the Sunday game! There'd be loads of interest

Generate a bit of talk about the games instead of just watching highlights, and everyone goes away not knowing what's going to happen next
Hasta la victoria siempre

Agreed!  You have to question the reason why they isolate what is a Championship defining draw to Monday morning radio at 8:35am ... talk about a PR own goal, little sense to it ... unless of course you'd like to have a little bit more control of the draw  :o ... however, if it throws up Tyrone v Derry, I'm all for it.

You'd expect Galway and Tyrone from first two. Louth Cork an interesting one.

If Derry don't buck up Mayo will beat them by a bit.

Cork will be delighted with that draw, and I think Derry will be happy enough too. They all look like like close enough games and could go either way although home advantage could make a difference.

Derryman forever

Glad it's Mayo.

I'm sure Derry won't mind being written off. We haven't really coped well with the favourites tag in this championship.

We beat them relatively comfortably down there in the league and we can do it again if we improve. Hopefully another couple of men back this weekend too. Mayo had a tough game and we've an extra days rest as well
