OK, we've threads now on each of the provincial winners. Can any of the remaining qualifier counties cause an upset and win the All-Ireland? Which qualifier county at the very least will put up the best challenge?

No.

And none.

Expecting a big performance from Galway next weekend. Wouldn't be surprised if they came through. Also expect Cork to make it very tough for us.

Monaghan.

Galway, Cork, Armagh, Meath, Kildare, Monaghan....No winner of the All-Ireland from this Group.

Sam will be won by either Dublin, Kerry or Mayo.

Cant see any other team winning

I don't see any back door counties winning Sam, Monaghan and Cork would be your best bets if you had to choose but Galway, Meath, Armagh and Kildare are all on the road to nowhere.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a qualifier team cause a shock in a quarter-final but none will win Sam.

As much as I see Mayo as favourites to make the All-Ireland final, they being the only provincial champion not to make the semi-finals can't be discounted either. The Munster runners-up will be looking for revenge for '11. You just never know.

I don't see any of them winning Sam but Monaghan & Cork would look best placed to cause headlines.

There is always a shock but the semi-finalists look to be the four champions Kerry, Mayo, Donegal and Dublin.

Knoxboyo Monghan. There you go.

I'd agree with the what's possibly the general consensus so far. Cork and Monaghan are possibly the two qualifier counties in a position to cause an upset.

Meath to make semis. But thats it. Only one county to win it. Dublin.

Cork are only qualifier county with a snowball's chance. Cork/Mayo will be interesting. If Cork were to win that the would give Kerry a rattle.

I wouldn't rule out Armagh giving Donegal a right rumble..

Did ye all start following sport yesterday? Of course a qualifier county can win it, unlikely I agree but not beyond the bounds by any means.Its sport, shocks can and do happen.
That said Dublin for Sam!
