The big problem with ballivor is that some of there better players play hurling which I think affects them alot that's why I think they might struggle

Walterstown is the only club that will win this. As long as there is stability there it is a done deal. They could have turned over the Cilles last year and the big thing is they have quality and if Eamon Barry is there they have a quality manager

Yeah they should have beaten the cilles in the semi final but in the quarter final they were very poor and if Syddan had have played anywhere near there potential they would have beaten them. There full forward line is an area where they struggle. When a teams plays a sweeper against them they rarely get scorers for Example in the Syddan game there full forward line only scored 2 points.

You forgot:

"This could finally be Galway's year" and
"Scotland are real dark horses for the 6 Nations this time"

Because I'd say I've heard those 3 statements at the start of every year for the last 25 years or so!

Best of luck to the Cilles in the final. Win or lose it is a good achievement to get there.

And Ballivor have been relegated every year but the armchair pundits on this form since they won the JFC and it did not turn out that way. When they did win the Junior the same armchair experts reckoned that they were 'really an Intermediate team'. My friend it can't work both ways.

I'm not sure what your point is. I'm just making a joke about "predictions" that are repeated word for word every single year for a long time but take a long time to come true, if ever. It's the prediction that cried wolf, it's been wrong so often that people don't take it seriously anymore.

Same with "this is our year" from Liverpool fans, or how US presidents spent 50 years saying Fidel Castro will fall "any day now".
