Just wondering what people's predicted quarter final line-up is.
The first 4 teams I would predict are:
Provincial winners-Mayo
Dublin
Kerry
Monaghan (I hope, but too close to call!)
The next 4 teams are fully depending on the draw in the all Ireland qualifiers.
On the 'A' side of the draw, the provincial losers of Leinster and Munster will be entered. Providing Roscommon and Cork stay apart for round 4, I would expect these two teams to make it through to the quarters.
On the 'B' side of the draw, the provincial losers of Ulster and Connacht will be entered. Again, providing they stay apart on the draw, I would expect Tyrone and Donegal to be the two teams to make it through to the quarters.
So then our quarter final line-up will begin to look something like this

Dublin v Cork
Kerry v Roscommon
Mayo v Donegal
Monaghan v Tyrone

Admittedly this draw contains a lot of ifs,buts and maybes but it's no harm in trying to predict!

Dublin v Cork
Kerry v Fermanagh
Mayo v Donegal
Monaghan v Tyrone

I believe Monaghan will beat Donegal, and Fermanagh will beat Roscommon!

Good to see no one giving Derry a shout. Time to slip under the radar

Doire. thats a fair call all right Derry have to be there also

Doire
My only hope for Derry would be if they were to draw Tipp in round 3 and Sligo in round 4.
Although they would fancy themselves against Monaghan if we were to lose Ulster final.

I think Derry could beat anyone in side B. I wouldnt fear Tyrone, Armagh or Galway

I am not mentioning anyone at this stage outwith provincial finalists who I think would have a strong chance even in qualifiers as there are too many unknowns with the rest.

Muns champ v Muns finalist or Qual A
Lein champ v Lein finalist or Qual A
Uls champ v Uls finalist or Qual B
Conn champ v Conn finalist or Qual B

Derry will slip under no radar, they will slip straight out!

Would love to get Donegal again in croke park, nothing to lose.

Fancy Tipp to be there if they avoid Donegal/Monaghan

If Kildare avoid Kerry/Cork in the last round of the Qualifiers I would certainly give us a chance

Agree, they should in that case beat the losers of the Dublin/Westmeath game ;)

redhanddefender strange since we only lost by 2 and you lost by 3. Both D2 teams now chap. Only beat us by 6 in the league......beat tyrone by 10!!!!!! We are a better team than tyrone at the min but that isnt saying much sadly for either of us

the big 4 with Cork and Monaghan...the other 2 spots depend on the draw but i'd be thinking Roscommon and Galway have a shout
