This is the opener to the championship next week. I'm predicting a Leitrim win but by how much is the question for me.

I think they will be ran close so I'm going to go with Leitrim by +6 in the end.

Any thoughts?

Someday soon New York or London, or indeed both, will cause a shock in the championship. Although with emigration and that it probably won't be looked back on as much of a shock after it happens, and people will be cursing the fact they didn't lump on when there was odds of 8/1 or higher on offer.

Don't suppose the game will be on the box?

Leitrim will win this, expect a fair challenge by the men from New York but yeah by 6+

Is Conor Lynam playing for New York does anyone know? Jeffrey Farrell is another very useful player if he is playing with them.

London have already won in the championship however they haven't won in Connacht since the 70s. Leitrim will win but they won't win by much as they struggle for scores at the best of times Leitrim by 4-6 points looks a good bet.

Leitrim to cover the handicap.

I don't think Leitrim will be caught out. I would think a 5-6 point win. Enjoy the weekend to anyone heading over. Tis a great few days and the NYC GA A community are very welcoming. I think its our turn next year to travel over for the Connacht Championship.

New York plus ten looks the bet especially if its a warm or even hot day........the worse the weather the more Leitrim will win by.

New York ten points in the handicap looks like good value.

the bet of the year was Toulon +1.5 at the weekend if you're a fan of the oval ball - that was nailed on!

Emlyn for top scorer after week one is worth a shout ;)

Can somebody post what number of points New York lost by in their last 5 championship matches and who they were playing in each?

Leitrim to win by 14 points, would be my bet for this one. PP been very limited on their handicap spread though with only one option, theres usually a lot more.
