Actually ayhaclith cant argue with your assessment. Meath need a better training regimes. We tire too early, but this year a qf is probably most we cam hope for royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 15/01/2015 14:50:57 1683521 Link 0 |
I think Armagh will surprise a few people this year and I can see them reaching an All Ireland semi final. Galway seem to be improving but have yet to really look like they can trouble the top teams. Meath meanwhile will likely get to another Leinster final only to be beaten by the Dubs before losing out narrowly to an average team in the final round of the qualifiers. All so predictable.. 11jm11 (Kildare) - Posts: 365 - 15/01/2015 14:51:16 1683522 Link 0 |
The three teams you mention here belong in a larger group of maybe 9-10 teams that on any given day in championship could beat each other. daytona11 (Kildare) - Posts: 4012 - 15/01/2015 15:19:13 1683540 Link 0 |
Of the three I would say galway have the best talent emerging, unfortunately! Hard to say who will do the best this year, maybe whichever one gets that bit of luck. TheMaster (Mayo) - Posts: 16187 - 15/01/2015 15:54:44 1683557 Link 0 |
Armagh are a decent side but is coming close to beating Donegal last year the reason why people are talking them up. They were relegated to division 3 last year and will be playing sides not tipped to win much this year. The reason they came close to Donegal last year is because Donegal took them a bit for granted and had only a week to plan for them.

I'd agree tir conaill about Donegal taking Armagh for granted and thats why there was nearly an upset. daytona11 (Kildare) - Posts: 4012 - 15/01/2015 16:37:57 1683575 Link 0 |
100% Daytona. The Dubs would have loved to play that one again. We probably did them a massive favour as I'd expect them to arrive with a serious hunger on this years championship and the lessons learned will make them more formidable in the years to come. I really enjoyed that day, both minors and seniors winning against the odds and knocking the All Ireland champions out in a sun drenched Croke Park!!

Im hoping Dublin take Meath for granted if we meet in Leinster final. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 15/01/2015 17:12:28 1683589 Link 0 |
I wudnt have Wexford or Down in that group.Wexford had a few good years but their gone well back.Down have done nothing for a few years now and with B Coulter gone they have lost their spiritual leader. cuederocket (Dublin) - Posts: 5084 - 15/01/2015 17:16:31 1683591 Link 0 |

From what iv seen of the 3 teams I'd have to say Galway could get to the quarters and possibly a semifinal . KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 15/01/2015 20:46:43 1683680 Link 0 |
If the 3 teams were in the same province Armagh would go the furthest cos regardless of League standing I would say that Armagh are slightly the strongest of the 3 at present. But given that Galway are in the weakest of the 3 provinces they have the best chance of going the furthest. PoolSturgeon (Galway) - Posts: 1903 - 15/01/2015 21:02:49 1683685 Link 0 |
