After watching the league games this year I'm of the opinion that it's now a 3 horse race between Cork Mayo and Dublin for Sam. Kerry haven't a hope Tyrone's defence is to weak to win Sam Donegal I don't really know tbh and the rest have no chance IMO. Thoughts? clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 07/04/2014 10:18:51 1571530 Link 0 |

Dubs, Cork or Donegal Liamwalkinstown (Dublin) - Posts: 8166 - 07/04/2014 10:26:52 1571541 Link 0 |
Would agree with you there on the top three. Tyrone, Donegal, Kerry and maybe Monaghan probably capable of knocking one of the other three but not going the whole way. doublehop (Kildare) - Posts: 4172 - 07/04/2014 10:27:37 1571542 Link 0 |
I'd agree with our Towers man alright. Cork, Mayo and the Dubs possibly the most likely, however Donegal are still knocking about though. 2012 All-Ireland Champions are always going to be in with a shout for the 2014 crown! MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13707 - 07/04/2014 10:34:42 1571550 Link 0 |
Well I'm writing Kerry off I don't think they've a hope in hell of winning Sam this year, that hammering they took yesterday they won't come back from, there backs midfield and forwards (beside's O Donoghue) not good enough. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 07/04/2014 10:36:26 1571553 Link 0 |
In his own inimitable way Clondalkin is right of course. brendtheredhand (Tyrone) - Posts: 10897 - 07/04/2014 10:47:46 1571560 Link 0 |

Would never write of Kerry being honest. I think at midfield going forward they are good enough. Declan O Sullivan and Donaghy will come back. I think guys like Daithi Casey, Stephen O Brien (very impressed by this guy), Paul Geaney, James O Donoghue, Kieran O Leary, Barry John Keane means they still have plenty of potential. bennybunny (Cork) - Posts: 3917 - 07/04/2014 10:56:02 1571569 Link 0 |
Kerry team of '09 completely different to the Kerry team of '14. Dubs gone backwards? Maybe your right but until we have everyone back and fit I'd never write us off, yeah Cork look the real deal this year alright. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 07/04/2014 11:02:45 1571579 Link 0 |
With the way the Semi's are drawn for this year, Dublin would not have to meet either Mayo or Cork until an All Ireland Final, provided all 3 win their respective Provincial Titles and Dubs make it that far. Fionn (Dublin) - Posts: 3727 - 07/04/2014 11:02:50 1571580 Link 0 |

Declan O Sullivan for me was the player of the 00's but he hasn't been the same player in 5 years now I don't know if it's injuries ,mileage or lack of hunger but he just isn't the same player. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 07/04/2014 11:08:31 1571590 Link 0 |
I've been to all our league games and the team that have impressed me the most is cork, Hurley is a beast of a man and colm O'Neil is a savage player, hopefully they can mind him and keep him fit for the rest of the season ahead, I've said it before on other threads that I'm very impressed with Brian cutburt , cork used to be so negitive under cunihan but not now fair play to him. As for my own team we have a lot of work to do, I don't think Johnny Buckley and maher are championship standard midfielders but I would like to see maher at centre back at some stage, so unless donaghy or Brian Sheehan can do something we'll be in trouble. Moran is a fine player glad to have him back. So at the moment it's cork dublin mayo in that order. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 07/04/2014 12:41:15 1571662 Link 0 |
Kerry id never write off as a team , but given the Facts , the players gone , the ones replacing well lets just say I think if they won an all Ireland with this team it would be a hell of an achievement , Cork have been impressive but they have been quick out of the blocks , its a long time to September opposiotion will narrow gap with Cork , Mayo semi final material just not sure theyve added anything new to get them the prize , Tyrone ? Hard to gauge , too often don't put in two half's and end up playing catch up . Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 07/04/2014 13:57:36 1571717 Link 0 |

Going to have a go at predicting the semis, mayo cork and dublin tyrone with a repeat of last years final. Dont know if we have it to beat them though unless we get the rub of the green. Balla8 (Mayo) - Posts: 10 - 07/04/2014 14:05:04 1571724 Link 0 |

GaryMc82 yeah it's called not having your best team on the pitch so far this season. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 07/04/2014 15:04:01 1571765 Link 0 |
