Ye but rossies lost so not a possibility anyway.

Get it, open draw this round, next round teams can't meet if they've met in provincial final or first round qualifiers. Getting used to it now and it a fair system.

Galway and Roscommon are in different draws on Tuesday.

Replying To foreveryoung:  "Hope the draw on Tuesday morning throws up:

Monaghan v Cavan in Clones
Meath v Kildare in Navan
Roscommon v Derry in The Hyde
Dublin v Kerry in Croker

That'd be my ideal draw."
Meath's home matches all in Croker.

There is no Navan at the moment. Meath's game will be in Croke Park. Though if Meath are drawn as the home team against Dublin I'm not sure if they'll be keen on playing them there.

Meath v Kildare in Croker would be a fine curtain raiser to Dublin v Kerry.

Bring it on!
