Well Liam Sheedy says Wexford are raging hot favourites.I wonder what bookies Sheedy goes in to.They must have Shergar as favourite to win next year's National at that rate of going.I think Tipperary will be in the All-Ireland Final.Wexford celebrated winning their first Leinster in 15 years and fair play to them.A team that are wildly celebrating a provincial success are rarely All Ireland champions in August or September.Tipp for me to beat Wexford.

I have seen the last three games Tipp played and the Wexford/KK Round Robin game and I have the deepest reservations about Tipps capacity to beat Wexford.

Have you ever of the ionics years of '95 AND '96?. Clare and Wexford wildly celebrated Provincial success and both ended up All Ireland Champions.

When I say stroll I mean they will win handy... let's just say it won't be like the epic Galway v Tipp Semi Finals of '15,'16 and '17!

I have.Have you ever heard of the word rarely.Mostly the team that wins the All-Ireland takes winning the provincial crown in their stride and puts the cup away such as the Dubs at the moment or the Kilkenny 4 in a row team.Of the 4 teams left, I would like Wexford to win it out but I don't think they will.

Roscommon '43, Just another example of a team that won its first provincial title and went to win the All Ireland. Of course in this decade alone both Clare and Limerick (except for a few players in '13), did not even win the Munster title and unexpectedly won out.

Hope you are right! I think we have a chance though- at this stage it will depend on the little things going right on the day.

Tough game to predict.
My fear for Wexford would be that they haven't played against a team in the championship with the goal threat that Tipp have.
However, in my opinion Tipp much like Cork really struggle when the opposition get a bit of a grip in midfield. It happened for 15 mins towards the end of the 1st half against Cork, a couple of lengthy spells in the Munster final and even for periods against Laois.
If Wexford can keep it close til half time, I think they have a great chance of overpowering them especially with our 'half mad' support roaring them on.
Wexford having Nolan available is a huge plus too. With the high intensity game that we play we were looking a bit light for midfield replacements.

The year of 1943 was Roscommon's sixth Connacht title not our first but it was our first All Ireland senior title.

Shergar ran on the flat, he would've never been in the Grand National, so duhhh!

Well the previous one was in 1914, twenty nine years earlier and I think the records show that it was not their sixth but fourth Connacht Title. Anyway Wexford won their 21st Leinster Title this year and they won their last one only 15 years ago.

The fact that you have to go back over 20 years for examples kinda proves their point..
