I hope it's not Breffni park. Navan would be nice.

you'd be slow to predict winners in round 4 after the surprises round 3 threw up. but here it goes anyway! you'd think donegal, cork, tyrone and cavan will emerge, but maybe one of those could go wrong for accumulator betting, tyrone/meath maybe the closest match-up, but still fancy tyrone. makes for interesting 1/4 finals.

I take back my original prediction

Its nailed on that the clash of styles will meet

Dublin v Donegal in the quarter final

Other ties being Kerry v Cavan
Monaghan v Cork
Mayo v Tyrone.

Prediction for quarters.
Dublin v donegal
Monaghan v cork
Kerry v cavan.
Mayo v meath (if there is a god in heaven please let this happen)

Winners donegal, monaghan, kerry, meath. :-)

When is the quarter final draw on?

Cork v Galway: Cork. Galway answered their critics yesterday and should give the rebels a good game but it may prove beyond them.

Meath v Tyrone: Tyrone AET

Donegal v Laois: It will be interesting to see how Donegal respond. Laois won't bring the same intensity as Monaghan did so Donegal for me.

Cavan v London: Cavan comfortably.

When is the quarter final draw on?


Saturday evening, 8:30pm on Radio 1.

Senseless bringing Galway and Cork to Croke Park for a Qualifier, surely Limerick would've been more ideal and logical.

Most likely that the winners at the weekend will be Donegal, Cavan, Cork and Tyrone (although not convinced about the latter from what I saw on Saturday night).

Like RD I would really love to see Meath come through and get Mayo but too many ifs and buts for that one I'm afraid.

QF of course could throw up almost anything.

Dublin will get Cavan for sure
Kerry v Donegal
Mayo v Cork (Cork to beat them?)
Monaghan v Tyrone

From there we will have a Dublin v Kerry/Donegal semi and Cork v Monaghan?

Dublin to beat Cork in the final.

Simple :-)

Can anybody confirm that this would be the teams that can play each other in the Q/F ?? 2nd teams in bold i have picked to win their 4th round games....

All Ireland Q/F

Kerry vs Donegal, Laois, Meath, Tyrone, Galway, London or Cavan

Dublin vs Donegal, Cork, Galway, Laois, Tyrone, London or Cavan

Mayo vs Donegal, Laois, Cork, Meath, Tyrone, Cavan or Galway (not sure if they can meet Galway in Q/F or not)

Monaghan vs Meath, Tyrone, London, Cork, Galway, Laois or Cavan (not sure if they can meet Cavan in Q/F or not)

I thought the draw would be before the final round of qualifiers meaning Cavan couldn't play mayo but looks like the GAA want total control again!

So yes, Monaghan can play Cavan and mayo can play Galway

The only games that can't happen are repeats of the provincial finals.


Oh and Dublin won't get cork, id put my house on it!

triple header in Croke park ? London deserve that.

Still don't understand the reasons behind Cork and Galway playing in Croker.

Bacause the liklihood was that it would be Armagh when the fixture was made, who would make sense. They cant change it now when we've all made travel plans. Anyway, delighted it's on in Croker

Why exactly would London deserve to play in Croker? Sure they surprised a lot of people in this years championship, but that doesn't mean they DESERVE to play in Croker.

Ah I was hoping the Donegal game might be fixed for Sunday because I'm at a wedding on Saturday. Ah well. Hoping our supporters rally behind the team who need us now more than ever!

Well Its wrong full stop that they thought/presumed Armagh would win as it is disrespectful to Galway.. Just don't understand why they came up with venues for two R4 ties before R3 was even played. Silly.

The losing provincial finalists should have home advantage imo.
We all tune in to watch the games, but when theyre played on front of a half empty stadium it takes a lot of the sting out of the occasion.
Still looking forward to the tyrone game though and ill be tuning into the radio for the Cork match ( dont rule out an upset ).
