At long last the Club Championship throws in this weekend with the start of the Junior Championship. It looks like a two horse race between the Plunketts and Lannleire. Here is my tips for this weekend and for the rest of the season. Winners: Plunketts Main Challengers: Lannleire Dark Horses: Glyde Group 1 Winners: Plunketts Group 1 Runners Up: Mitchell's Group 2 Winners: Tones Group 2 Runners Up: Cuchulainn Group 3 Winners: Glyde Group 3 Runners Up: Barrs Group 4 Winners: Lannleire Group 4 Runners Up: Naps/Blackrock This weekend: Plunketts v Mitchell's..............Plunketts Tones v Cuchulainn..................Tones Glyde v Nicks..............................Glyde Barrs v Annaghminnon..............Barrs Lannleire v Naps/Blackrock.......Lannleire Mals v Mc Dermots.....................Mals Ollie2 (Louth) - Posts: 788 - 10/08/2023 17:50:38 2499968 Link
Only one wrong Ollie, unlucky. Nicks with the first shock of Championship 2023. I am liking the staggered start to the championship. Junior gets all the spotlight for one week, Intermediate starts this week and Senior next week. I would like to see a return to double headers. annoyedplayer (Louth) - Posts: 30 - 15/08/2023 11:20:59 2500605 Link

Yeah four out five is not a bad return giving me a 80% winning rate. Fair play to the Nicks. I did not see that coming. Sunday was a good day for the Drawda teams with all three of them winning.

The Intermediate Championship throws off this coming weekend. As usual it's the hardest grade to call with half a dozen teams that could win which include Roche, Kevs, Mattock, Kilkerley, S.O.M and Hunterstown. Here is my tips for this weekend and the rest of the year: Winners: Kilkerley Main Challenge: Mattock Dark Horses: Kevs Relegated: Connells Group 1 Winners: Roche Group 1 Runners Up: Glen's Group 2 Winners: Mattock Group 2 Runners Up: Kevs Group 3 Winners: Kilkerley Group 3 Runners Up: Hunterstown Group 4 Winners: S.O.M Group 4 Runners Up: Clans This weekends fixtures: Roche v Stabannon..........Roche Kevs v Rats..........................Kevs Kilkerley v D.Y.I...................Kilkerley S.O.M v Connells.................S.O.M Ollie2 (Louth) - Posts: 788 - 17/08/2023 07:34:39 2500901 Link
Replying To Ollie2: "Yeah four out five is not a bad return giving me a 80% winning rate. Fair play to the Nicks. I did not see that coming. Sunday was a good day for the Drawda teams with all three of them winning." I should say five out of six instead of four out five which gives me a winning rate of 83% which is even better.

Junior championship becoming more open than a few weeks ago. Dunleer lucky to get over the line V McDermotts. Nothing new with Dunleer I suppose as they always choke in championship. Glyde and Barrs next week. Good chance one of these two will be gone after it. Maybe its the time of the Nicks and Tones to go deep into the championship. Inter continues to be hard to call. O'Connells as good as a relegated. Mattock clear favourites before they even play a game. After that any of the rest will fancy a good run. red.dragon (Louth) - Posts: 557 - 21/08/2023 07:13:40 2501517 Link

Replying To thestrapper49: "Barrs win next week they top the group .They have 4 points as it stands so already in the QF" If Barrs don't win they could be knocked out on score difference if Nicks win. So as it stands they have not qualified from group as you state. red.dragon (Louth) - Posts: 557 - 23/08/2023 00:35:59 2501842 Link
Replying To thestrapper49: "Barrs win next week they top the group .They have 4 points as it stands so already in the QF" The Strapper it's a long shot but the Barrs could still miss out on a quarter final spot. If the Barrs beat them by 6 points and the Nicks beat Ammaghminnon by 10 points they would lose out on score difference. Ollie2 (Louth) - Posts: 788 - 23/08/2023 09:50:18 2501855 Link

The Nicks will appeal against their elimination from their JFC, throwing in doubt this weekends Junior quarter finals. They were knocked out after the GAA introduced a mini league system which send Glyde through as group runners up behind the Barrs. Ollie2 (Louth) - Posts: 788 - 06/09/2023 13:05:39 2503287 Link

Fair play to the Joe's qualifying out of a group with St Pat's and Newtown Blues. Always were a championship team over the years and have some fine young footballers. 1/4 final draw tomorrow night DundalkGael (Louth) - Posts: 895 - 10/09/2023 16:42:03 2503660 Link
