When is the draw for groups does anyone know?

If I'm not mistaken all teams and their seedings are now settled after this afternoon's matches so we should have the draw soon hopefully.

Do that counties in the Tailteann have more interest if they get 1 or 2 neighbours in the pot, even if from another province; e.g Sligo V Fermanagh, Lietrim v Longford, Offaly v Tipp, Wexford v Waterford?

Group 1: Kildare, Sligo, Leitrim, Tipperary
Group 2: Offaly, Laois, Wicklow, Waterford
Group 3: Westmeath, Limerick, Antrim, London
Group 4: Fermanagh, Wexford, Carlow, Longford

The outcomes looks straight forward enough. Top seeds should win their group. Second seeds should all get through although not necessarily in second for all of them.

Only games that look like deciders as to who gets knocked out are Leitrim vs Tipp and Carlow vs Longford.

As for Limerick, it was going to be tough whoever was top seed but we have a terrible record vs Westmeath and Antrim are probably the best third seed. It would be a surprise if they didn't beat London though.
