Fair enough. 75p on Armagh it is.
I’m not touching the £25 behind the cistern though. That’s my running away money!
All Ireland series
- Thread starter William Of Orange
- Start date

Would the GAA think like that though, i doubt one thought will be given to Armagh and Derry shared route lol

No, they will be concerned with the teams involved in Croke Park.
It depends on who wins at the weekend. If Tyrone and Galway and Cork win, then we would be more likely to play Cork, as we cannot play Galway or Tyrone and Cork cannot get Dublin.

Oisin O’Neill - played for cross last week I hear, too late to make the bench for QF or even SF?
TK - I heard he was out for the season but took part in the warm up on Saturday 
Aidan Nugent - Dropped off the 26 cos of poor form? Strange situation for the team captain to be in surely

Mentally it would be a major boost to have O'Neill on the 26 with the ability to come in for at least some minutes. He's pushing.
TK unsure of but Ciaran O'Hanlon back training.

Haven't heard this. Anyone else?
I have a query, if the bookies favourites Rosscommon, Monaghan, Tyrone & Galway come through this weekend, then the draw is being made for the quarter final on Monday and Rosscommon get Kerry, Monaghan get Dublin do they scrap the draw and redo it because Armagh will then get either Tyrone or Galway? I don't think they do scrap it.

Be very sirprised to see tk , oisin or O'Hanlon get game time this year.
Massive to go from been out for so long to an all ireland 1/4. It would be a massive boost to have them but lack of game time would be a worry in HQ next weekend.

Agree with everything Boyle says.
Clearly I want us to play an attacking and engaging style of football but surely it must now be apparent to all that this the sort of football that suits us best and is the brand of football that other teams are less well set up to combat.

That is my understanding. The draw is not over until it’s over.
The rules say no repeat of a provincial final but that can’t come out of the hat this year anyway. There can be repeats of group matches but only where they are unavoidable. They are not unavoidable this year so it would be a redraw if a repeat came out at the end and if Armagh where drawn out first and against Tyrone then Tyrone would immediately move into the second fixture and the draw would continue.

Yep correct

Been saying this all year … push up and play to our strengths!
We had glimpses of it in the league like the first 15 minutes of the second half v Monaghan the first half against Roscommon and the last five minutes against Mayo when we needed 4 points in injury time
Need this attitude for the remainder of the year

Yeah it’s a big ask alright but I think with his quality 10-15 mins near the goals could yield something but then again….maybe I’m just a dreamer

If you're not fit for the 26 you're not. I like that from the management - no soft options taken.
Shows everyone in the squad if you're doing it in training then you can make the 26.

Some Kerry captains haven’t made the first 15 in some All Ireland finals.
Even in 1997, Mike Hassett was captain, but was out injured. Not sure if he was named in the actual squad on the day, but his brother Liam lifted Sam.
Let’s hope we have an issue about who’s going to lift Sam in a few weeks time
Talking about Nugent. Pretty sure I seen him stripped out on Sunday wearing the number 28 jersey. Also think he did the coin toss before the match started.
I'm all for everybody being part of the travelling squad but that seemed a bit strange to me.
If he wasn't part of the official playing squad is he even allowed to do the coin toss
