Now that the league tables are sorted the picture is a little clearer, my prediction is that following counties will be in the 16.
Seed 1: Dublin, Mayo, Kerry, Derry.
Seed 2: Louth, Cork, Sligo, Armagh,
Seed 3: Galway, Roscommon, Tyrone, Monaghan
Seed 4: Donegal, Westmeath, Kildare, Meath
Its Mayos all ireland, there is little point any other county fielding a team, were definitely doomed
They’ll probably keep their none in a row streak intact
United to do it this year. Rovers to make the final. City for the Cup.
Five teams from Leinster!! That alone shows what a weak competition it really is.
It looks that way, but Meath and Kildare could lose of if there is a major surprise in the provinces and a 3rd or 4th div team make the final, it will happen in Connact, very unlikely in Ulster, could happen in Munster if Cork f…k up , either way the teams that would replace Meath or Kildare would not be of a better standard
That’s pretty much my point. The standard is awful.
The winner will be Kerry, Galway, Mayo or Dublin and I’m only including Dublin because I am unashamedly biased. No team up North is good enough to win it.
It has been my point for a while when people talk about tiered competition etc, there simply isn’t enough teams , one of the groups could be Dublin, Sligo, Monaghan and Westmeath.

Only one day gone in the champo and my predictions are well off the mark, Clare beating Cork leaves Kildare in a very dodgy position.
