You are rather dim yourself or you would know that Donegal can play Monaghan.

This whole Championship QF draw with 'they can't play them and they can only play these ' is totally ridiculous with only 8 teams remaining… Simply put 4 teams in one bowl and 4 in another and draw them out…and have it on the Sunday game… not on the radio on Monday morning… ForeverBlue2 (Cavan) - Posts: 4096 - 23/06/2025 07:15:18 2620076 Link 0 |

Was I hearing things or did they draw Meath out to play Donegal and then changed it? joeteor (Donegal) - Posts: 247 - 23/06/2025 08:45:38 2620085 Link 3 |
Same as that. I thought I definitely heard us drawn to play Meath as well. Hopefully in 2026 they'll do away with this outdated craic of doing the draws for our flagship competition at 8.30 on a Monday morning. Anyway, another battle with Monaghan awaits. This will not be easy. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9827 - 23/06/2025 08:59:02 2620090 Link 0 |

It did sound that way to me too! Would like to hear that recording again.

Hearing things. Meath came out and of Donegal and Galway, Galway were drawn to play the Royals.

i guess the GAA will try to put dublin and kerry games on different days, but surely wont be able to with galway and donegal out yesterday? youd imagine it will be donegal v monghon at 2pm and meath v galway at 4pm sunday. do fans rather being on the first or second game? donegal would rather first youd say and be headed up the road home by 4:30 intead of 7pm on a sunday evening. wont bother galway as much with M6 motorway to get gome on. meath fans could go to coppers that night and get a taxi home and still be in bed at 3am! dickie10 (UK) - Posts: 847 - 23/06/2025 09:30:43 2620110 Link 0 |

But they said they put Donegal in to the bowl and then drew out Meath afterwards? It was very confusing

I heard the purpose of the Monday morning draws is a strategic marketing move, so that Monday morning headlines will be all GAA based, as otherwise Monday publicity is shared across all sports at the weekends.

Right so I listened back and they put Donegal in to the bowl as Galway were already in it for the Tyrone 50/50 draw with Dublin, then they drew out the provincial winner(Meath) and Galway came out between them and Donegal. That definitely could've been communicated better. joeteor (Donegal) - Posts: 247 - 23/06/2025 09:45:05 2620121 Link 0 |
