Good to see Fermanagh make a bit of a breakthrough this year and I hope they give Dublin a game of it on Sunday.
A bit like ourselves they are in bonus territory and should take a lot from the year so far and following from whatever happens Sunday into next year and build on it. Its great to be in the last 8 of the 'Tier one championship'I doubt many would have predicted it. Its going to be tough going but with a solid defensive effort they might frustrate the Dubs.
The Dubs are fairly alright though with two of the last 4 All-Irelands they are up there at the moment with the Kingdom.
Best of luck.

It's good that Fermanagh played in Croke Park during the league. I'm intrigued as to how they will setup.

I think the Dubs will get a couple of goals in the first half ruining Fermanagh's best plans.

I hear you Clondalkin! Looking forward to pints for Donegal v Galway and a right oul session on Sunday with an oul sing song thrown in!

Really looking forward to Kildare v Kerry - think Kerry will win but if Kildare play like they did last week it will be a free flowing opening game!

As regards to our game, I don't mind how we win once we get over the line!!

Clonadalkin you're never going to believe it but we're gonna beat the dubs! I'm looking forward to ROC and Quigley. If quigley plays to his potential it could be an interesting duel between the two.

If The ROC plays at 20% Quigley won't get a kick.

I honestly don't see why there is all the hype about ROC. Although usually when I say this about a player they make me eat my words so I guess i best keep quiet.

Quigley was terrible last Saturday he doesn't look fit so don't see the big pitch in croke park suiting him...

He's never fit. The way he plays he doesn't need to be a speed merchant running about the place. 2 games ago he hit 14 points, i think 6 were from play. On his day he is a very good footballer.

You'll see Sunday trust me, only joking about the 20% by the way. Gotmilk tell me the last player to roast him ? He's marked them all big small fat skinny fast and slow and held his own against them all.

GotMilk to be fair there's not loads of hype about him our forwards tend to get that but the man has won it all he is as honest as they come and still only 25 a beast of a man.

Looking forward to it myself I must say. Tickets sorted and although I can't see it being a full house (maybe 65k) it should be good atmosphere. Hope the bloody weather doesn't put a dampner on things.

Was Quigley not bragging about eating pizza at all hours of the morning before the westmeath game? Don't think he'll get a sniff against the dubs (excuse the pun) but they need him to wreck to have any chance.

Big fan of ROC! Once Jim does not have him chasing full forwards out to midfield ha

It's rain rain rain for Sunday!

quigley was double marked against westmeath and balls lumped in on top of him. this then worked to corrigans advantage. so it doesn't matter who 'wrecks' as long as someone does! quigley won't be double marked sunday so he may have a bit of joy. but for fermanagh to even come close, we need everyone to 'wreck' not just quigley.

Raining goals into the Ernesiders onion bag more like it.

he had the pizza before the laois game last year brolly. He ended up scoring 2-8 that day. Not a bad pre match meal if you are getting scores like that.

NYC are you from the black by any chance?

Haha I get the feeling the dubs could do with a snickers.
