Thankfully all our county champions survive to this weekend and best of luck to them all.

From talking to better people in the know and have a look at what bookies reckon looks like a win for Ballymote should be on the cards but that may be the only success of the weekend with both Elphin and Ballina favourites for the intermediate and senior games. Harps won't be helped by not having a good competitive game since the county semi final either.

Not surprising as Roscommon clubs havent had much success at junior level and this is probably a better Ballymote team than the last Ballymote team that reached a Connaught junior final

Best of luck to both team !

Be great to see both teams progress and I think they both will.

This weekend will tell a lot about where we are. I expect Coolera will give it a right lash. They were awful at this stage last year but with home advantage and the experience of back to back titles I think they will be competitive. Winning might be beyond them. Harp's in the Hyde against a very fancied Elphin side will be a huge test for a young team. Ross will have his homework done. Harp's won't score much but they won't concede a big score either. I just think it might be a step too far for Harps. Ballymote appear to be favourites against a team I know nothing about. Home advantage will be huge and hopefully that could be enough for a home win. Wishing all three teams the best of luck and if we get 2 victories out of 3 it will be a great weekend
