Now that Mayo Galway Tyrone and Monaghan have all gone back the door with a good chance of Donegal and ourselves joining them next week round 4 could see 3 to 4 of those teams gone before the super 8s . KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 16/06/2019 22:46:11 2196114 Link 3 |
Some of those teams will make it to the Super 8's and who knows after that, Tyrone are probably the best bet to push Dublin this year imo but I would not be hopeful at the same time. GeniusGerry (Kerry) - Posts: 2105 - 17/06/2019 09:27:25 2196232 Link 7 |
All potential challengers are struggling and seem to have fallen back on last year. Only Donegal look like contenders at the moment. The Munster and Ulster finalists will want to avoid Dublin's group. legendzxix (Kerry) - Posts: 7826 - 17/06/2019 09:35:31 2196240 Link 1 |
We, Tyrone, were very poor against Donegal. It will be a struggle to reach super 8s and we may need a kind draw in order to do so. The week-on-week games always help us though. Galway will be a different animal if they get Comer back. In all fairness, Mayo have only themselves to blame for not beating Roscommon in Castlebar and the only way they'll not be in super 8s is if they end up facing Galway or ourselves. In any case, I'd not rule them out of winning either game. OGarmaile (Tyrone) - Posts: 248 - 17/06/2019 09:40:16 2196246 Link 0 |
The only teams in with a shout for Sam is Dublin, Donegal and Kerry, the rest have a lesser chance like Tyrone and Mayo, week after week games could ruin their chances, Monaghan aren't firing on all cylinders yet, I firmly believe Galway haven't a chance under this management, too defensive, if the Corofin management were over the Galway team then they will win All Ireland's. riverboys (Mayo) - Posts: 1389 - 17/06/2019 10:13:02 2196277 Link 1 |
Kerry are off the pace as well. Everyone saw that in the league final and also in Ennis for those of us not watching the Champions League final. legendzxix (Kerry) - Posts: 7826 - 17/06/2019 10:23:59 2196286 Link 1 |
Donegal are the only real contender to be honest. Pullhard1985 (USA) - Posts: 68 - 17/06/2019 10:30:13 2196292 Link 1 |
Wouldnt be reading to much into Championship form so far to be honest, few counties have just used their free hit chip is all and went into the qualifiers. No big gun has been knocked out yet. Its part of the reason the provincials are a bit of farce these days. TheUsername (Dublin) - Posts: 4445 - 17/06/2019 10:38:11 2196299 Link 7 |
We were pretty good on Saturday night but I think this talk is a little premature. Tipp, Limerick, Cork, Wexford and Kilkenny will all give us a game ;) MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13705 - 17/06/2019 10:49:12 2196306 Link 10 |
Not Kerry anyway.

Not this year anyway, fitzmaurice held on to the old lads too long and didn't bring enough of the young lads through from our minor teams. Maybe if he fast tracked mark o'Connor into the senior team like he did Clifford then he might not have gone to Oz. Anyway next Saturday will tell a lot what with 7 qualifiers games and a Munster final up for grabs. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 17/06/2019 11:10:10 2196317 Link 1 |
they dont do hype (ahem Mayo!) well they won't be releasing another "Jimmy's winning matches" song if that's what you mean cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5010 - 17/06/2019 11:10:20 2196318 Link 2 |
Hes not winning matches anymore by the looks of it.

They'll have to beat Cavan first. If they're as complacent about them as you seem to be they won't even win Ulster.

Im a cavan supporter though. ;-) We will leave the 'hero worshipping' and the cheerleading to the Mayo fans Pullhard1985 (USA) - Posts: 68 - 17/06/2019 12:12:10 2196380 Link 1 |
Mayo for Sam, has to be Mayo's year, I've been hearing that mantra for years so maybe this could be it? other than that Tyrone must be the next big contenders with Kerry a distant 4th, hard to see past the Dubs getting 5 in a row though.

The way I'm looking at it is that Dublin will win the 5 in a row. But they have to play someone in the final. That someone could well be Donegal. Kerry haven't looked all that impressive of late. Tyrone were very poor against us and Mayo have gone back a bit I think. Ruane getting injured for them is a big blow. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9116 - 17/06/2019 13:14:53 2196454 Link 0 |
