I don't think Derry could have got Donegal.

Decent draw for the Ulster teams.

Yeah, that was a bit of a curveball just before the draw

Aye, I'm just after editing my post when I realised that. Too slow :)

Derry could have got Donegal. But after Roscommon were drawn to play Armagh in the first stage of the draw, that automatically meant Donegal had to get Louth (as Louth could play neither Dubs nor Kerry). So there was no need to proceed with stage 3 as the only option was Kerry v Derry and Donegal v Louth.

Good draw. All the group winners will be favorites, but everyone will think they have a chance.

It's hard to look past the 4 teams who topped the group. Derry might have the best chance of upsetting the apple cart since I think they have unfinished business with Kerry from last season.

Once Armagh drew Roscommon, it meant Donegal had to draw Louth and the third round became pointless

If you look at the odds on Paddypower they have the fixtures as

Saturday
Armagh v Roscommon 3.45
Kerry v Derry 6pm

Sunday
Donegal v Louth 1.45
Dublin v Galway 4pm

Not sure if that could be trusted.

They will put Armagh v Rossies and Derry v Kerry on the Sat and then have the Dublin v Galway and Louth v Donegal on the Sunday...Just my guess BTW.

Dates to be decided today. I'd imagine they will put Dubs on Saturday as they'll think that will maximize GAAGOreceipts and Louth on Sunday to give them the extra day. So Sat: Armagh v Ros, Dubs v Galway. Sun: Donegal v Louth, Kerry v Derry.
But we'll see

illdecide

How freaky is this...I was speaking to Davy Burke in Armagh on Saturday afternoon and after all the craic and football talk he said to me "We'll see you (Armagh v Rossies) next weekend.
