Replying To legendzxix:  "Yeah, sure that's it. Defending champions have a target on their backs. Lazy pundits will install defending champions as favourites. Pundits worth their salt will look to 4 quarter final favourites of Donegal, Dublin, Galway and Armagh.
Kerry players currently on holidays before putting feet up for winter. Will probably have to clear out dirty diesel when league rolls around. Sure, we'll hope for the best."
Poor mouth wouldn't be in it ;-)

Replying To S1234:  "Favourites worth their salt will have Donegal in? Who absolutely collapsed in the final. Dublin?? Ha they have a massive rebuild job to do . Galway ? The most overated team in the country . The team who lost to MEATH who then lost to Donegal by 20 points and Donegal collapsed in the final haha .

I agree on Armagh though they will bounce back. Mayo will at least make the quarters and win connacht under Andy . Some dellusional stuff on here ... !"
A Mayo person having a dig at a team for collapsing in a final. I have really heard it all now!!!

Newly promoted Donegal and Armagh retained their place in Division 1 this year. It'll be an example for newly promoted sides for many years. Monaghan and Roscommon will look to set the cat amongst the pigeons for those predicting otherwise.

I'm not arrogant at all ! Just pointing out the truth ..

Now someone from Longford slagging Mayo off is laughable !

Who is this "you lot" you keep on about? I suspect you're probably not old enough given the tone of your messages but I'm certainly old enough to remember many Mayo collapses, one in particular against Kerry stands out. I certainly wasn't making digs against any Mayo supporters of whom I know many. Do you not think that kind of thing is a bit classless?

Seems fair to give Clare and Limerick the opportunity to get promoted to Division 2 first before the seeding comes in.

If you "remember well" the Mayo collapses, why did you say the exact opposite in your previous message? I'm beginning to think you haven't a notion what you're talking about Clare.

Replying To S1234:  "I think Armagh will bounce back. Other counties will catch up with the new rules and have a new manager bounce for a few counties . We don't need reminding Mayo had an awful year .

Funny someone from Meath slagging off Mayo when you got beaten out the gate by 20 points in the semi !
Donegal may have thrown in the towel but we still had to win that game otherwise would have been relegated ..
League means nothing stay safe and try new players thats it .
Kerry won the league because Mayo didn't come out of 3rd gear. Think ye should concentrate on your own team cause you need to !"
Oh I did nt realise that. Just glad we won and delighted Mayo did nt reach 4th gear.

You probably wont be able to absorb this information but I ll try explain anyway slowly. Kerry played in top gear in the All Ireland final and our top players played to the optimum.We also got a bit of luck while the luck deserted Donegal.Donegal did not collapse and scored 19 points which equalled the highest losing score ever of 1-16 by Mayo.In fact Donegal tally of 19 scores is the highest amount of scores ever from a losing team while Kerry broke the scoring record for a winning team with 1-26. Donegal did not collapse and their supporters were also a credit to their county.Michael Murphy was also hampered by injury and still did well.To say Donegal collapsed is just being bitter.

Proper order and in the interest of fairness it should always be an open draw. The selfish side of me though loves a Kerry v Cork final.
