Replying To Barrowsider: "Group stages are now complete in the championships. Rathvilly eire og and old leighlin and palatine are probably a bit ahead of the rest and we should get two good semi finals from them. Clonmore and tinryland in the relagation final, would have to fancy clonmore to win that.
Intermediate is shaping up nicely now too. Hard one to call but you would imagine kildavin grange and fenagh and tullow are the front runners.
Junior is tight enough too, leighlin ballon and kilbride look to be a bit ahead of the rest but once you get to knockout anything can happen.
I'll go with rathvilly for senior Fenagh for Intermediate Kilbride for junior"
The recent history of the Carlow SFC tells us that teams than look incredibly impressive in their groups tend not to win it. So that means you'd have to fancy Eire Og or Rathvilly this year.
Fenagh or Tullow might well win the IFC rather than Kildavin.
Am surprised you don't mention O'Hanrahan's in the JFC. They beat Asca by more than 20 points - an eye catching scoreline, to say the least. But quite fancy Ballon in that.
