Tyrone are the only team that can beat Dublin - 4 Like(s)
After Tyrones peformence yesterday they seem to be he only team in Ireland that are able to beat Dublin they play amazing blanket defence which are words you will never think anybody will say because it is so boring, but they play very fast and exiciting in defence. And in attacking play it was lovely to watch there speed and movement is brilliant. they have a lot of star players. If its not Tyrone its either Mayo or Galway but Tyrone are far far better team . Kerry are no longer contenders ,

Kerry Vs Galway - 3 Like(s)
Replying To Belclare1: "4 wins from 4 but still miles behind Mayo and Dublin.." Definitely a few miles of Dublin, but saying that they are miles of Mayo is beyond crazy. They are twice the Team than Mayo at the Moment.
You really hurt my head!

A draw here would be ideal
Galway vs Donegal/Tyrone in the Semis
Monaghan vs Dublin in the Semis
And Kerry to be knocked out
Hoping for a Draw now!!!

Replying To OhtobeARossie: "Round 1 of a league division 2 match hardly needs it's own thread." Why not, it opens discussion and it is to go and give your view and prediction on the game.
I think it will be a good game and hoping for Meath win after this stubborn comment.
Respectfully going for a Roscommon win though as one person from Roscommon is not going to change my mind.
Roscommon 2+

Dark Horses Football Championship 2017 - 2 Like(s)
The dark horses for me are Galway. They could get their hands on the Sam McGuire if they really tried and played to there full ability, they should play attacking football. I expect them to reach the semis. The amount of talent they have is unbelievable. They probably have the best forward selection in the country at the moment.
My second team would be Monaghan they have the best style of football in my opinion and they could win the all Ireland if they tried. They have some amazing players.
Cavan,Meath and Kildare could shock us as well.

Support Our Footballers Next Saturday - 2 Like(s)
Replying To Nogoal: "Lads the footballers have made great progress this year. It's really important we give them our support next week. Supporters and team need to give their all. It's a long time since we had two teams in the senior and minor semi. We can give a serious performance here but we need to support the team. We are fortunate to have our hurlers going so well and I look forward to two weeks time. This week though let's get to Dublin and give the footballers a big support" Agree 110%

Mayo V Dublin - 2 Like(s)
In my opinion no matter how poor Mayo play in previous games they always seem to go out and put a fight up against Dublin. Should be a fairly entertaining game with a lock of nice scores. Would like to see a Mayo win but I'm going to go for a Dublin win here.
Dublin 4+

Reasons To Ban Blanket Defence - 2 Like(s)
I was at the Derry vs Tyrone on Sunday and the minor match was close to great, it was mainly attacking football with man on man of course there was a small bit of defensive football but it was nothing major, it was an enjoyable game to watch and the people there were hooked in the last 10 minutes. Then after that a very boring defensive Senior match. I was talking to a Cavan lad today who was at the Cavan vs Monaghan minor match yesterday and he said it was brilliant match with a lot of man on man marking and great attacking football, I also did read a few articles of it this morning and it did seem a great match, there is also some praise about it on a few posts today. Also in Donegal vs Antrim minors match it was apparently ten times better than the senior match, I also read a few articles about it as well and it did seem very entertaining. And there is also a good few positive posts about it as well. So in a way its good that people are enjoying the minors as they do deserve more recognition than they get but unfortunately Senior matches have gone bad. The league final between Dublin and Kerry was one of the best matches in years because they were playing attacking man on man football and yes sadly there was still some defensive football. So if there is any way for people to enjoy football again is get rid of defensive football. There must be a way or a rule to make to prevent blanket defence. It would be different ballgame if there no such thing of blanket defence, people would enjoy football again and there would be much more players looking to play county again. And last but not least it would be a much more competitive sport with much better teams. The likes of Derry, Armagh , Rosscommon, Cork, Clare, Meath, Kildare, Louth, Cavan and Armagh etc.etc. would all benefit and be much better teams and get further in the league and championship, maybe the top teams like Kerry, Mayo, Dublin, Tyrone and Donegal might not be the top teams if there was no defensive football although they would still probably be great teams. I don't understand why Galway, Monaghan, Meath and Kildare etc.etc decide to play defensive because they have some of the best forwards in the country. Attendances would go up because of more entertaining matches, with a much better atmosphere, the GAA would make much more money if so. Kids would be more happy and encouraged to play football. The sport would of course get more recognition. So all I am saying is get a rule quickly to ban blanket defence please!!!

This will be interesting; Galway will not play the way they played against Monaghan. There's a great chance that Galway could come out on top. Time will only tell....

Will Galway be worried? - 2 Like(s)
Replying To yew_tree: "I'm interested...what's your connection to Galway?" Since I was young I always loved Galway hurling as football. I went to college and worked in Galway. Also one of my parents are from Galway so my family are from Galway, and I have friends there as well. I visit very regularly and show as much support as I can to them. It's like my second home.
