Jaysus..has there ever been longer odds in a 2 horse race at this stage of the year. Some odds!

So its levels you devils each of two, yet I notice Meath are 3 points shorter than us to win the Holy Grail, bookies must be looking at the record books 1928 seems such a long long time ago compared to Meath in 1999.

One game at a time, even though there is something in the back of your mind that says maybe??, anyway statistics are just records from previous generations, all there to be broken.

Am I correct in saying that Tyrone hadn't won an All Ireland up to 2003? and now have 3 in the bag, that old saying getting the monkey off your back!.

I think Dublin are a decent bet at 9 to 4 to beat Tyrone.They are going in as underdogs against a team that was finished last year. If Tyrone beat Dublin , they haven't a hope in hell of beating Cork.

I genuinely believe that Sam is between Cork and Kerry with us as the dark horses. I said all year that Cork and Kerry are the two best teams in the country by a long way and now my own county have turned out to be the dark horses imo.Strange times. In reality , the hurling and football finals will probably be the same as 2009 and if so , I would like to see a different result in both cases.

Have to disagree with you there TC, Tyrone are going out on top. Cork are completley clueless and lack any sort of sembelance of a game plan. All their half backs are intent in doing is putting the heads down and going on mad solo runs.

Word on the street that we might not have seen the last of Dara O'Sea yet as an inter-county player. Lets face it they have no mid-field and if they scramble past Down with a poor display around the middle I can see the SOS going out to him.........

Jaysus, hes a busy man cause Laois want him as manager from what I hear.

I'd agree with TC tho, between Cork and Kerry, I see Cork being too good for Tyrone again this year but they have to make a huge improvement from Limerick obviously. I think if Cork do get to AI final, they'll beat Kerry (unless we get there).

In saying that, 8/1 for the Rossies...that is mad. 2 horse race with Cork coming into it in questionable form

To me Dublin have a more of a chance at the weekend than most people are giving them.
I think Tyrone although very good are now over hyped to a huge degree and are due a sticky game.
The Dubs have nothing to lose in this game unlike all their other big losses where there was huge pressure on them to get a result.

They have a few new lads with no mental scars and no fear of Tyrone. They have a bit of momentum and are big and fit. Although you may say there is no chance, this could be the upset of the year.

To be honest although the dubs would not be that high up my liked team list it would be nice to have a bit of a shake up.

I give Down a good chance against Kerry.

Considering all losing provincial finalist lost last weekend it does appear that teams coming through the qualifiers are getting more time to gel a team together and play there way into form.

That's certainly the case for Kildare and Dublin. Cork are almost playing there way out of form but are still raging favourites against Roscommon. What odds on a Kildare Roscommon final given the emotional year that is in it?

i also give down a good chance after that impressive win last week and kerry nt having played in 3+ weeks!!!!!few draws could happen.might do a lucky 15 with the 4 draws!!

How are Tyrone finished?? An average Meath team put 5 past Dublin and Tyrone have o neill to come back..... Would be very surprised if the dubs got within 5 of them!

Best user name and avatar I've seen in ages. Agree about Tyrone. Cant see the Dubs getting close to them at all.

def agree with the lads given down a good chance at 3 to 1 ill be having a score on them remember kerry missing o`se and galvin 2 huge players for them

mad odds for cork but can`t see anything but a cork win here

tyrone will be too strong defensively for the dubs i see cormley bein put on b brogan with ricey going to alan brogan. and if o`gara starts to run with his head down like against louth mcmahon will clean him out of it all day. should be an intense game as it always is between them but for me its tyrone

i think we will beat meath but wont be easy they are good at gettin goals and goals are killers just think we are too fit for them

handicap betting
kildare(-1) 11/8 draw (-1) 8/1 meath (+1) 8/11

cork(-9) 11/10 draw (-9) 10/1 roscommon (+9) 5/6

tyrone (-3) 6/5 draw (-3) 9/1 dublin (+3) 5/6

kerry (-4) 11/10 draw (-4) 9/1 down(+4) 10/11

really looking forward to the weekends action now tomorrow will be the only time i will be shouting for this down team cause i dislike kerry more than this down team. down +4 looks like a sure bet to me can`t see kerry beating them by 5.
Il be shouting for the dubs then just cause i would rather tyrone out than the dubs

I/m no fan of the Dubs at all but I'm with you CB, I would like to see the Dubs get the better of Tyrone.

yeah i wudnt mind seeing the dubs get the better of them then get killed by cork but i cant see it happening,there backs wont be able for tyrones classy forwards!!midfield and defence aint bad either

Not a feckin chance, they Dubs can never be beaten by enough in my eyes... Tyrone all the way.

imagine it fionn both kerry and tyrone beaten in quarters who is your favourite for the all ireland now?

3/1s a good price for down to win. wouldn't write off roscommon yet either. cork looked bad against limerick. I think they'll be closer matches than expected.

Cork would be favourites then Dublin centreback.

No need to worry anyways, Tyrone will beat Dublin with plenty to spare, and they will win the All Ireland like i said at the begining of the year.

wonder what be big shock of weekend be
