Down in Munster we have the Semi-Finals tomorrow night, Cork v Tipp in Cork and Clare v Kerry in Ennis. One of Cork/Tipp will be gone out. Tipp already beat Kerry easily, they may beat Cork too. Winners of that semi should win Munster and Kerry will be in Quarters as beaten provincial finalists, but we are poor this year.

Im expecting tyrone be strong and win ulster and make the AI final, dont know what the rest are like but this tyrone team looks very strong on paper, with a lot of these players making their mark already for senior teams and school teams, alot of Markey All Ireland winners for example. Id say Dublin, Cavan, Mayo, Roscomman and Cork will be strong, they always produce strong minor teams in recent years.

I think Tipp will win Munster again this year. I expect Cork to give them a better game than Kerry did in the 1st round, but I think Tipp will get back to the AI final again in 2012.

All over between tipp and cork. 1-10 to 9 pts. Cork had a penalty in injury time of 2nd half saved that if scored may have led to a replay/extra time
Well done tipp, looking strong again this year

Looks like its Tipp in Munster unless Kerry do a Lazarus. I'm sure I'll feel the wrath of a few on here but I heard Kildare were strong enough this year. That was from someone with no connection to Kildare. Dublin of course will be attempting to continue their good work at underage level. Perhaps other poster could let us know what way their minors are fixed.

Do the bookies price up the minor?

Standard high again in Connacht this year.

Roscommon,Galway and Mayo will all fancy their chances as usual,while Sligo and Leitrim are stronger than they have been in a while

This is the draw- Leitrim v Roscommon

Winr Away v Galway

Other semi- Mayo v Sligo.
