Kerry were pitifully poor last weekend. Cavan are worst team left so it'll be a 10+ points win in a nothing game this weekend. Armagh will be ready and waiting in Croke Park and expect a straightforward victory for them. There will be nothing saving Jack at that point. Kerry have not introduced enough good young players last few years and have been one of the poorest teams in implementing new rules. No easy victories over weak Munster opponents will cover that up.

Replying To legendzxix:  "Armagh rightly favourites. Kerry dreadful today. I'd welcome a big rival coming to Killarney. Either good enough to go further or not."
I actually thought myself that, perversely, Kerry needed to get Galway in the prelims. A chance to get a win against a big rival in a big knockout game. A win like that could really kick start their campaign. That 'big win' would be easier gotten at home against another team with a short turnaround rather than in Croker against a rested Armagh in the quarters.

Maybe they can find that kick start against Armagh, who despite looking good this year, are still a fallible team imo.

Meath were missing more players. The players who came in kicking 2 pointers for fun. Meath have at least 9 forwards lording it over everyone

No other county has that ability. Meath click, everyone gets burned. It's just a case of how long Meath can sustain it!

Armagh flash in pan side. Struggled to put away a poor Dublin team. Don't score goals either.

I disagree. Armagh are the team to beat. I think we should have beaten them in the All Ireland last year but they have improved while we haven't. If Armagh don't do it I'd say Donegal will. I hope Galway prove me wrong but I doubt it.

Not looking past Meath and I agree that Armagh have improved. Rafferty is like having an extra man.
However, Galway have improved in some respects, Thompson, Finnerty and D'Arcy have made bigger impacts in 2025, while
some of the other big names are a bit below the 2024 performances, they have'nt gone away though. Anyway, it's all about tomorrow.
Gaillimh abu.

Flopped big time when they faced a meaningfully challenge. Lost 3 matches in the championship tells its story.

That's it. Armagh totally lost their shape. What was Rafferty at. Kerry will be favourites for the All Ireland now but Armagh really poor today.

What happened to Armagh today as they looked out on their feet after the 50th minute mark? They stood of Kerry even when they were well behind. They looked tired but not sure if was was from been overtrained?

Donegal, Kerry, Tyrone, Meath in that order.
Kerry v Tyrone might be close, but you would have to think that Donegal might have too much for Meath.
Some championship wins for Meath already this year beating Dublin, Kerry and Galway and the bookies still not giving them much of a chance at all. Meath certainly can't be taken for granted.

Lots of hills in Donegal and lots of hills in Kerry. Tyrone has the Sperrin mountains (which really are only hills) and Meath has the hill of Tara.

Down in the 60s since Ulster team won back to back All Ireland titles. First time ever for Kerry to knock a defending All Ireland champions from Ulster.
