baxter your right 1/40 with paddy power is a joke take no heed of the bookies
its a ploy to get people to do winning margin bets instead where they can make money

cant see Dublin been stopped this year, no disrespect to Laois, maybe Meath might have other ideas, think they are only team in Leinster who will put it up to the Dubs, maybe Kerry, Cork,Mayo, in Ulster i believe Monaghan would give the Dubs a great game,with nothing much in the game, but overall its hard to see Dublin stopped this year for Sam.

My big question to Donegal fans is.......how will you stop Dublin this time!? You can't block runners and drag people down!?

Also begs the big question how will Dublin manage this year when you can't block runners and drag people down?!

1/50 for The Cats to beat Offaly.
Shocking odds for a match.

There is a reason for odds like that though.

Bookies are very rarely beaten.

Shocks are possible but just cant see it in Kilkenny v Offaly, Carlow v Meath and Dublin v Laois

Laois will come with a blanket but in Munnelly and Kingston they have some scoring power, I think if the Laois net doesn't bulge early doors they will be in the game with 20 mins to play. Players with a low center of gravity seem to get the most joy out of the Dublin defense. As a Dublin supporter what I'm looking for is a drastic improvement in shot selection and accuracy for the amount of chances we create we should be shooting the lights out hopefully the wide count won't too high.

Lsois will cause a mighty upset here ,
Can see them winning with plenty to spare, in ross munnely we have one of the best forwards in the country and john o loghlin will dominate midfield cutting the supply to dublins flakey forwards

favourites are generally beaten thats how bookies make money
they wouldnt make money if the team/horse/dog that all the money was on wins all the time
bookies entice people to back a certain bet by reducing odds and half the time their does be no money for it
just the fact its being cut people back it thinking somebody is in the know
also they know a lot of people in betting shops will tend to back the fav all the time
therefore they like to take them on as you wont make much backing odds on horses as for every 2 that wins you will lose more on the one that doesnt. if the favourites were certain winners the punters would bankrupt bookies and you rarely see a poor bookie

2 years ago laois ran Dublin to 1 or 2 pints.
Laois should have won that day, laois have improved since even though they were the better team on the day.
Kingston will give Roger o Carroll a run around croker, Kingston is now a fit man , he has not been fit since minors.

John o loughlin is the best/ strongest midfielder in ireland

im putting a ton on laois to win by four

______________________________

2 years before the 2011 All Ireland final, Dublin where beaten by 17 points by Kerry, They won the 2011 final by 1. 18 point turnaround.

What im trying to say is, What happened two years ago is irrelevant

Laois have improved, But so have Dublin.

Dublin should win. And if they dont ill be shocked.

Margain of win is, as of now, not a concern. The result is the only thing that matters.
