Quote from: Dunneroyal on May 25, 2025, 09:18:49 PMGood win for Meath yesterday. TBH in total control for majority of the match. I was getting worried that we'd do what we did in Leinster final and be the far better side at halftime and be hardly ahead. But we dug out the win. Morris is getting back to fitness and Costello is surely nailed on all star.
Hyde will offer a different challenge. But from what I've seen so far of Roscommon we should win. But need to put teams away when we on top. Cost use v Louth and could have cost us yesterday

 ;) You serious? After one game!

Roscommon v Meath this weekend.

Meath need to be burying a under performing Roscommon this weekend to show they have really progressed this year.

If they go to the Hyde and limp to a 4 or 5 point defeat they are back at square one again.

Hopefully Kerry's luck will desert them and they'll end up with a brutal QF draw, they'll fall at the first big obstacle

Aye would be great to see them get a big dog.

There are 4 preliminary games, two of those will have Armagh/Dublin/Galway/Derry in them and Donegal will in one of the 4. If Donegal don't play Armagh/Dublin/Galway/Derry then these teams are likely to win their preliminaries and so Kerry is likely to play one of them, and this is pretty much inevitable if Cork won the other preliminary. Kerry might well trip up.
You really giving Kerry a walk over v Meath in neutral venue ? Probably portlaois where Meath destroyed dubs? I wouldn't be shocked if we took them there.

I hope you right Dunne Royal and love your optimism.

In the unlikely event Meath did beat Kerry the whole championship would be blown wide open if it wasn't already and would show how great this current format can be.

Its a very open AI - anyone of Kerry, Galway, Armagh, Tyrone or Donegal could win it. You also have Monaghan, Derry and Mayo who could beat of of those five on a given day. I wouldn't read anything in the Meath/Cork result as Cork are a poorly coached side. Cork might lift their game against Kerry but both themselves and Meath will be beaten by the Rossies and Kerry. Two weak sides.

So far it's looking like
Tyrone, Armagh Cavan
Kerry Roscommon, Meath
Monaghan, Down, Louth
Dublin, Galway, Derry

Can't see Cavan, Meath or Louth progressing any further after that.

Donegal out? 4 group 4 teams through? :D?

Roscommon don't look too hot, so Cork or Meath surely have a chance there.

He actually has Armagh out as he has listed the other 3 teams in their group at the bottom. He has it all mixed up but it appears he thinks either Armagh or Donegal won't get out of the group

Whats the odds on AI Winner now after first few games

PP have these odds. Bolkesports have Armagh 5/1 and others 6/1. This is reasonable as Armagh cannot meet Donegal, Dublin or Galway, whereas two of these could meet in the preliminary QF and so not even reach the QFs.

I don't know what I was thinking of there.

Tyrone, Donegal, Cavan
Kerry, Roscommon Meath
Monaghan, Down, Louth
Dublin, Galway, Armagh

Louth, Meath and Cavan won't be progressing.

Donegal, Kerry, Tyrone, Galway to make the semi's

Grace Murphy

Kerry not win it.... bag of shite when they play a real team

While Monaghan and Kerry go to the QFs, events elsewhere especially in the Group of Death will have an influence. If Armagh top that group, and Donegal do not top their group, they have a one-third chance of meeting Dublin or Galway, and so one big gun is gone. If Armagh tops the group, then they cannot meet Dublin, Galway or Donegal, and so these teams are more likely to play Kerry, and they won't both be in the semi-final. So the pattern of games will be have influence on the QFs and your 4 teams might not all be there.
