Donegal
Dublin
Kerry

Tyrone look best placed at the moment to take the all Ireland. Usual suspects won't be far away but just feel Tyrone current crop won't be beaten for a while.

Kerry going full out and only scraping over the line by the width of a post against an out of sorts Dublin, points in the direction of Dublin winning the All Ireland without too much trouble.

Tyrone

Louth

All Ireland: Louth.

No harm in dreaming. This was real until my alarm went off this morning. The great Paddy Keenan came out of retirement and led the Wee County to All Ireland glory on the 60th Anniversary of the 1957 win. If Carlsberg only did dreams. An Lu Abu!

Hmm I prefer to look at it in slightly different way. Firstly for first time in while Leinster looks rather competitive, you have Westmeath on the up, however I think reaching semi final is there optimum, good run in qualifiers possible. Louth also have improved significantly and I would mark them as very dangerous opponents for Meath first outing should they meet. Kildare were probably a little further ahead of division 2 teams early in league in terms of fitness and prep, they should make semi finals and a good run is also on the horizon, last 8 I think. Dublin? They will get a bit of game v Westmeath but will reach Leinster final. Meath? Ahh my beloved county, the form team at end of league campaign, management settling in nicely, the buzz around Andy McEntee is very much hitting fever pitch, never before has a Meath team been so fit, no more tiring, they can play for 75 minutes every game . Players playing out of their skins, attitude top drawer clinical finishes. The one draw back? Alan Forde injury, he was a firebrand could as easily win you a game as get sent off. A traditional Meath player who played with heart on sleeve. So wher does this put Meath this year? We will narrowly beat Louth, Derby games are always tough. We will beat Kildare in Leinster semi, and then the big one, Dublin wont face a Meath team like this in a while probably 2010, not saying result will be the same, but this will not be a team coming to keep score acceptable, they will be coming to win and disappointed should they not. Andy will know all about a lot of these dubs (he coached a few of them) it will be one hell of a game, but despite what my heart wants I feel this year been year one of the genius Andy tenure is too soon. And ill reluctantly plump for Dublin to have a narrow win. Meath to make last 8.
Connaught? Mayo or Galway, ill say Galway.
Ulster? Donegal Monaghan final, with Donegal (who have impressed me this year ) winning out.
Munster, Kerry
All Ireland. Dublin.
