Predictions:

SFC
Na Fianna V Summerhill -- Summerhil by 5 Na Fianna to suffer 2nd season syndrome
Gaeil Colmcille V Dunshauglin -- Dunshaughlin going good Kells not too shabby either Dunshaughlin by 1
Navan OM V Senchalstown -- OMahonys getting their act togetherwin by a few
Blackhall V Oldcastle-- Blackhall Oldcastle for Intermediate Blackhall by 6
Duleek/Bellewstown V Dunboyne-- Dunboyne seem to be a team thats putting their hand up will win by 4
Wolfe Tones V Skyrne-- The old dogs for the hard road Tones to win this one
Walterstown V Simonstown -- Simonstown by 6 Walterstown not great
Donaghmore Ashbourne V Moynalvey -- Don/Ash maybe a dark horse Moynalvey without OSullivan wont win here
St Patricks v Rathkenny-- Rathkenny wont be as good this year Pats should beat them
IFC
Drumbaragh V Trim-- Drumbaragh will give this a good go and may win narrowly
Carnaross V Ballivor-- Ballivor seem to be in good form Carnaross are looking at Junior
Kilmanham V Balinabrackey-- Bracks probably good enough to win here
Castletown V St. Michaels-- Castletown will quailify Michaels might also but Castletown to get best start
Clan Na Gael V Donaghmore Ashbourne-- CNG Over achiever last year the 2nd team will test them and may win
Longwood V Dunderry-- This will be close Longwood if Burke is fit may have enough
Ratoath V St. Ultans-- Ratoath by a good bit
St Colmcille V Ballinlough-- Ballinlough won the League clash shoe might be on the other foot
Syddan V Nobber-- Nobber should win by a couple

JFC
St Brigids V Moylough-- St Brigids by 7 or 8
Kilbride V Curraha-- Curraha by 10 or 12
Dunsany V Drumconrath-- Drumconrath just about
Summerhill V Cortown-- Cortown should get home by 4 or 5
Skyrne V Navan OM-- OMahonys maybe slightly better
Dunboyne V Clonard-- This will be close Clonard not too bad but Dunboyne will be in the shake up maybe Dunboyne by 2
Boardsmill V Meath Hill-- Meath Hill to win handy
Dunshauglin V Kilmanhamwood-- Dunshaughlin to win

SFC
Na Fianna V Summerhill -- Na Fianna to overturn last year's result. Gillespie is a huge loss and Lewis and Queeney will dominate as a result. (3 points)
Gaeil Colmcille V Dunshauglin -- Fancy Gaeil Colmcille to sneak this one due to their superior forwards. Will struggle at midfield but Dunshaughlin aren't the force they once were. (2 points)
Navan OM V Senchalstown -- NOM to win a high scoring affair, too much strength in depth.(5 points)
Blackhall V Oldcastle-- Difficult to call, both teams will be aiming to win this one and everything else is a bonus. Going for Blackhall by a solitary point.
Duleek/Bellewstown V Dunboyne-- Dunboyne should have enough for D/B who haven't kicked on in the senior ranks. Geaney is a huge addition(6 points)
Wolfe Tones V Skyrne-- This will be an excellent encounter between two powerhouses in the SFC of late. Tones performance will depend on form of Ward. Skryne fresh and hungry for success again Draw match
Walterstown V Simonstown -- Simonstown will be boosted massively by the return of Shane O Rourke. While Walterstown are no pushovers, Simonstown will prevail in this bruising encounter (2 points)
Donaghmore Ashbourne V Moynalvey -- Two up and coming teams in this grade with bright futures. Should be an open and free flowing encounter with scores aplenty. Don/Ash by 4 points.

IFC
Drumbaragh V Trim-- Interesting encounter with the new Junior Champions facing up against the former senior team Trim. Drumbaragh's forwards have the ability to trouble any defence but it's a question of which Trim side will turn up: The 2012 team who reached the final or the 2013 team who finished with only 2 points in the group stages? Drumbaragh by 2
Carnaross V Ballivor-- Two teams that have struggled in recent years. Ballivor with a full strength team are a force to be reckoned with in this grade but seem to struggle in a club where hurling takes priority. Despite Carnaross finishing on a single point last year, they can feel aggrieved not to have taken more out of games that were there for the taking. Carnaross to win a low scoring affair by the minimum
Kilmanham V Balinabrackey-- With the news that Mickey Newman is unavailable, Kilmainham may struggle without their talisman. They will be gunning to prove the naysayers wrong and hit the Intermediate grade running but realistically I feel Balinabrackey should pick up the 2 points quite easily. The Bracks by 6
Castletown V St. Michaels-- Castletown have been the perennial Bridesmaid of recent times in the intermediate grade, losing 2 semi finals to teh eventual winners in the last 2 years. The Michaels have some excellent underage talent bearing fruit and this promises to be a tight and evenly fought contest. Can't see these two being separated by more than a kick of the ball. Castletown by 1
Clan Na Gael V Donaghmore Ashbourne-- Clan Na Gael overachieved last yearand will struggle to reach those heights again. Don/Ash will have a talented young side but the pitch in Dunsany will favour CnaG. CnaG by 4
Longwood V Dunderry-- Similar to Kilmainham's loss, Burke's potential absence is a monumental loss for Longwood. Dunderry's season stuttered to a surprising halt last season with the loss of Kennelly to injury. After opening with 3 victories, they lost their 3 remaining matches. Fancy Dunderry to win this tight local affair by 2.
Ratoath V St. Ultans-- Ratoath are red-hot favourites for this year's competition even accounting for the painful loss of county man Wallace. Their strength in depth is illustrated by their representation on this year's u21 team(5 starters). However Ultans are quietly going about their business and top the table in Division 3 and will relish the underdogs tag in their attempt of causing an upset. Ratoath by 4
St Colmcille V Ballinlough-- The Lough won the corresponding league fixture by 2 points but this will count for nothing come Sunday. Colmcilles are hampered by their inconsistentcy, shown last year by beating eventual winners Kells and topping the group only to lose to an out of sorts St. Michaels team in the quarter final. Balinlough themselves have been there or thereabouts over the last number of years but they too have struggled to put a string of victories together. Balinlough to win by 2 points.
Syddan V Nobber-- It's a toss up with this match and the Michaels vs Castletown one for tie of the round in the Intermediate grade. Nobber are a very different outfit to the team who lifted the cup in 2010. However, they have in their possession a young team mixed in with the more experienced heads of Farrell and Brian O Reilly. Will be interesting to see if they gel together because if they do, they will be a formidable opponent. Adrenalin will be pumping through the veins of the Syddan lads for this eagerly anticipated, fiery, local encounter. They will have no fear of their former-Senior opponents. Tough to call so I've opted for the easy way out draw.

JFCSt Brigids V Moylough-- St Brigids are a much improved outfit and will account for Moylough.
Kilbride V Curraha-- Curraha to win at a canter.
Dunsany V Drumconrath-- Drumconrath have enough for a depleted Dunsany outfit.
Summerhill V Cortown-- Anyhting less than a win for Cortown would be a huge shock.
Skyrne V Navan OM-- NOM have the superior second string.
Dunboyne V Clonard-- Dunboyne 2nd string gave a fantastic account of themselves last year and can consider themselves unlucky not to get something out of the semi-final. Fancy them here against a decent Clonard team.
Boardsmill V Meath Hill-- Meath Hill will have enough for the new boys Boardsmill.
Dunshauglin V Kilmanhamwood-- The Wood may struggle here but might should just snatch it.

I heard from a reliably source that Na Fianna have a new young lad who is meant to be a block of a lad and a serious footballer if I can remember his name is Geoghean. Could possibly help Na Fianna help defeat Summerhill on friday??
