Senior Championship 2011

(Oldest Posts First) - Go To The Latest Post


Gowna v Castlerahan - Ramor to win this. Castlerahan very poor, think gowna have a lot more up front.
Denn v Drumalee - Drumalee to win this. Denn not what they were, drumalee will be gunning to win this to try and make the quater finals.
Ramor v Cavan Gaels - Ramor to sneak this one i think. Lets face it the gaels have serious problems in their camp n they are not wat they were either. Think ramor will win by 3.

Castlerahan v Gowna - Hard one to call. Both teams have to win to have any chance of making quarter finals in their last game. Lose your gone. Think Castlerahan might shade this one. Castlerahan by 3 points

Kingscourt v Lavey - Do or die for the current champions & they'll know this. Will not want to go out in the group stages. Lavey by all accounts deserved something from their game v Mullahorn as did the Stars. Match Lavey's hunger & i think Kingscourt should have enough to pull through & go into the knock out stages. Kingscourt by 2 points but would not be surprised by a shock here.

Drumalee v Denn - Not seen either team yet this year. Drumalee by 2 points

Lacken v Ballinagh - Ballinagh should surely follow up their victory over the Gaels with another win here, even if Lacken have some players back that they were missing in earlier games. Ballinagh could win this easily & top the group. Ballinagh by 7 points

Cavan Gaels v Ramor - Biggest crowd puller of the weekend. Evenly matched i believe. Gaels minus Gavin Duffy after a straight red last week. Gaels are not the team they were, defeat in last years final has given other teams belief that they are beatable on the day. All is not rosey in the camp either by the sounds of things. If Ramor can get going, they are a very nice team. Very hard to call, contain johnston & ramor are into the quarter finals. Draw match

Also, does anybody know the procedure for determining the quarter final line ups.
Is it an open draw ?
Or is it 1st place in group 1 play runner up in another group etc ??

Castlerahan - Gowna, Gowna - Castlerahan to eventually realise their potential in the SFC. Gowna too reliant on too few players

Kingscourt - Lavey, Kingscourt - Not the team they were 12 months ago but their still senior champions. Lavey going well of late but should come up short here

Drumalee - Denn, Drumalee - Two poor teams and relegation candidates only for a favourable draw. Drumalee to win as breffni will suit them

Lacken - Ballinagh, Ballinagh - Lacken going terrible at the moment and on the run of 5-6 straight defeats I think. Ballinagh should have the bit between their teeth

Cavan Gaels - Ramor United, Gaels - Undoubtedly the tie of the round, Gaels with their backs against the wall should come out fighting but Ramor are showing the benifits of 3 u21 titles and have a nice young team. Gaels have not lost back to back championship matches in my memory and should make the q/f

Castlerahan v Gowna: Im gonna go for a draw here, but Castlerahan might just have the edge over Gowna.

Kingscourt v Lavey: Kingscourt to win by the smallest of margins.

Drumalee v Denn: Drumalee to win by 4-5 points as Breffni Park will suit them.

Lacken v Ballinagh: Ballinagh to win by about 10-13 points.

Cavan Gaels v Ramor United: Cavan Geals to win what is a must win game for them. If they lose they are out of the Championship at the group stages. I can't see that happening.

Good point, Gales seem to get every game in Breffni, seems unfair as other teams dont get to play in breffni at all, dont know why this is though!

As it stands you may be close to the point but I think you can add a few more senior teams to that list?
To many senior teams in Cavan who would struggle at junior level.
