Hi Lockjaw. Congratulations to Donegal on a well deserved National 1 league title. No doubt the celebrations are going well and everyone is looking forward to the championship with Donegal real contenders. After all your hard work over the last few months with the national league predictions, you are really keeping many of us in suspense awaiting the final results. There were 2 Rossies in the top three with many points on offer for the four league finals. Maybe you might deliver the final result to us when the celebrations die down a bit.

Small bit of patience there ladeen. Lockjaw clearly stated he was away and would not be updating for a few days. You should practice reading posts and forget about the suspense

Ah here you deserve a ten point deduction for that. The man is away and said he would be away. Patience son.

Sorry Lockjaw. Did not know that.
In fairness you have done a mighty job over the last few years. Enjoy your break.

Hi lads,

I'm just back. It will still take me a day or two to readjust, and get the final scores and leaderboard done.

But I'll need your help.

Can someone please confirm the TG4 MOTM awards for Div2, Div3 and Div4 finals? I know Michael Langan got the Div1 MOTM award.

Also, just to clarify scoring criteria...

Call the winner = 5 points
Call the draw normal time = 7 points
Call the winner with exact winning margin = 10 points
Call the correct TG4 MOTM = 10 points

Normal time only rules apply.

Just doing up the final scores now. But just to clarify, so that I don't have everyone hounding me about scores....

if you predicted a Down and Carlow win, no points are actually awarded because they were technically drawn games.
I think one or two did specify Carlow x 2 AET, in which case I awarded them 7 points...

So using my own score as an example for everyone to reference/check their own...

Donegal v Kerry - Donegal x 1 (Jason McGee) = 5 points
Meath v Cork - Meath by 2 (Jack Flynn) = 10 points
Down v Wexford - Down by 6 (Pat Havern) = 0 points
Carlow v Longford Carlow by 4 (Colm Hulton) = 0 points
