NO AFTERTIMERS!! THE LORD HIMSELF HATES AFTERTIMERS!

Post up your selections each weekend, no points awarded no knock out system, just a bit of craic.
By the time the finals come around we might all be following one lad religiously!! Also, no fav backing singles!!

So, this weekend I have a little 5 Euro treble on
Limerick 17/10
Clare 11/8
Kilkenny 1/25

Won't return much but the money is down :)

Fermanagh are a cracking bet at 21/10 to beat Armagh at home. Have them in a Saturday evening double with Tipperary footballers -11 at Evs.

I'm not sure what to expect from us, we should win easy but if we win we have cork next Saturday so could be a case of if we build a lead we'd ease up and just see it out rather than keep pushing on. Just a word of warning.

Thanks. I was thinking the same actually but I'm expecting Tipp to bury Waterford with goals. Three goals will do me!

I won a few bob on Spurs last week, so I'm taking a risk with all three selections being against the favourite, but I fancy a few upsets.

I've done, all in the hurling:

Limerick 15/8
Dublin 3/1
Kerry 13/10

Three £5 doubles and a £5 treble.

Very unlucky with that bet. The amount of times bookies get the handicap spot on is incredible, think someone here had Offaly +12 last week and they lost by 12.

Damn. Looked good heading into the last quarter! Yes it's hard to catch them out.

Had Fermanagh at 5/1 halftime full time.

This wkd Wexford at -7 even money looks good value. I'd expect Antrim to cover the 5 point handicap, from what i've heard Down are in a bad way atm. Antrim had a decent enough league where as Down struggled. Still think Down will win but Fancy Antrim to run them close.

Also westmeath at 7/5 (-1) to beat Laois looks to good to be true. Laois struggled to beat a poor Wexford side, Westmeath had a good league. Looks to be buying money.

Longford still 5/2 to beat Meath this weekend, I think that's bet of the weekend, well worth a punt.

Disagree. Laois should win. 8 wins out of 8 this year .

In the eyes of the bookies it's only 7 wins. Wexford game went to extra time so they paid out on the draw. I might be wrong but time will tell.

Wicklow manager John Evans saying they will not change their style of play against Dublin. I think the Dubs will beat them by 30 points if they want to.
