Replying To royaldunne: "Kerry Mayo Donegal And unfortunately Dublin Joined in super 8s by Tyrone Galway Monaghan Meath. Winners , I honestly don't care once it's not Dublin as having to listen to them doing 5 in a row would be akin to England 66. So I'll pop for mayo. As I genuinely think the dubs will crumble under the pressure" Ah royal Dunne don't be like that I promise will only go on about it for a year until we do the 6 in a row hehehe clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 02/04/2019 16:40:54 2177325 Link

Connacht -Mayo Leinster - Dublin Ulster - Donegal Munster - Kerry Followed in the Super 8's by: Tyrone Monaghan Galway Kildare To me these are the best 8 teams come Championship but the draw may pit these teams together at some stage which may open the door for teams rated 8 - 12th such as Roscommon, Cavan etc. sam1884 (UK) - Posts: 999 - 02/04/2019 18:06:13 2177336 Link

Delighted if they do as the more Leinster teams the better. But I really don't think they in top 8 in country at moment royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 02/04/2019 19:33:18 2177358 Link
Honestly don't think Dublin will do the 5 in a row. What a story it would be if it was Mayo that stops them but for me its going to be Tyrone. Tir Conaill Abu (Donegal) - Posts: 1671 - 02/04/2019 20:08:11 2177363 Link
Replying To waynoI: " Replying To Belclare: "[quote=Tir Conaill Abu: "Time to put your knowledge to the test and predict the competitions for 2019: Ulster Champions: Tyrone Leinster Champions: Dublin Munster Champions: Kerry Connacht Champions: Galway Super 8's Tyrone Dublin Kerry Galway Mayo Donegal Monaghan Meath All Ireland Champions: Tyrone" Mayo are the only team to put it up to the Dubs and after yesterday are the team to beat.. Mayo for Sam" Not sure if youre being sincere but make no mistake about it, the team to beat is the team that hasn't lost a championship match since 2014 and aiming to create history make no bones about it."]If you go through belclares previous predictions you will notice that he doesn't always know what hes talking about.

They are the second best Championship team in Leinster. The draw would need to suit them but no team outside of the top 6 will stop them reaching the super 8's - if they avoid these teams they will comfortably qualify again. sam1884 (UK) - Posts: 999 - 02/04/2019 20:53:11 2177370 Link
Yeah il have to go with Dublin for the 5. They are doing there best to stay under the radar and lull teams into a false sense of security and who can blame them it's the smart move and one I wish we had done in 82. gallarus14 (Kerry) - Posts: 127 - 02/04/2019 21:11:58 2177374 Link

Don't see it , Carlow dismissed them easily last year. This year is a right off for the Lillie's I think. Next year under a new management maybe. But no the hiding they got from donegal will not have done confidence any good I think. Actually it may have set them back. They haven't been playing well at all. And I wouldn't agree about been second best in Leinster royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 02/04/2019 21:30:02 2177380 Link

I dont see Dublin winning 5 in a row.. if they do it'll be a monks hut on Skellig Michael for me. My take on Dublin is Jim Gavin in all his time managing Dublin he has gone put to win every game, every competition. So people implying that they didint take thd league seriously because they are focusing on the summer something they have never done before says to me that maybe they have come back a wee bit. Lets behonest 2018 was a non event there was no real test for them. Super 8s for me, Dublin Kerry Mayo Galway Tyrone Donegal Monaghan Meath Not one easy game in that group of teams so it should be a great summer and if Dublin win Sam they will have a serious battle to do it. westkerry (Kerry) - Posts: 1250 - 02/04/2019 21:36:43 2177384 Link

Ulster Champions: - - - Tyrone Leinster Champions: - - - Dublin Munster Champions: - - - Kerry Connacht Champions: - - - Mayo. Super 8's N / A All Ireland Champions - Dublin. Two things about this year's championship, (1) Wicklow could very well raise their game and surprise Kildare in NCP, Stranger things have happened.! (2) With Dublin winning and achieving the magical 5 in a row, it will all but kill off the game, psychologically if nothing else. supersub15 (Carlow) - Posts: 2907 - 02/04/2019 22:17:05 2177389 Link
Big 4 this year. Dublin, Kerry, Mayo, Galway. The field. Tyrone, Monaghan, Donegal, Meath. Provincial winners. Dublin Kerry Mayo Monaghan Winners. Dublin. Runners up. Either Mayo or Kerry depending on the semi final draw. Potential shocks. Last day of super 8s...maybe. Too early to call but I would expect there to be excitement at the very least. Shocks in the provincials. Take your pick in ulster. Non in munster nor Connaught. If meath don't make the leinster final that would be a shock for me. Talking point (rules and tactics) of championship. The mark being half called by players strategically and refs allowing advantage thereafter. Clothes line tackles and black cards. Talking point players. David Clifford Talking point refs. Very many as usual. Donegalman (None) - Posts: 3830 - 02/04/2019 22:26:48 2177390 Link
Replying To yew_tree: "Mayo v Galway All Ireland final, Mayo to win and Belclare to self combust ;)" If Mayo win Sam I'll meet you buy you a pint and shake your hand half way between Belclare and Castlebar! On the other hand if Galway win you have to come to Tuam for the homecoming wearing your Mayo Jersey.. Belclare (Galway) - Posts: 904 - 02/04/2019 22:31:03 2177391 Link
