Kerry Donegal final. Kerry generous odds at 7/2.

To me all 4 games could go either way but for what
its worth I think Kerry will turn up on Sunday. I will side
with Galway but feel that Meath are an unknown quantity.
A fresh and under the radar Monaghan to edge Donegal and
Tyrone to beat Dublin although defo not sure on that last
one. There is a lot of speculation about Dublin but the Tyrone
posters are quiet. Is there quiet optimism or is this as good as
it gets? Whoever wins looking forward to some cracking games.

Jack Barry back centre field is a game changer. Marc O'Se said he was flying in training. Kerry by 4-6

If Kerry have to bring in a man who was on the beer in Oz for the past 18 months, they wont go well against the All Ireland champions.
He was hardly a generational player when he left - throwing him in only insults every other centre fielder in Kerry. How little the county manager must think of the clubs layers in Kerry that he will draft in a lad just home from a years craic in Oz.

How are the GAA going to work out the no previous pairings for the semi finals if Dublin / Galway and Armagh all win at the weekend…..

Good question. I found it strange that in the quarter finals they avoided repeat match-ups from the groups and provincial finals, but now they're prohibiting repeat pairings from all stages of the championship. I dunno why... But I think it happened before that some team had no opponents so they just bit the bullet and declared all those invalid pairings valid (because one of them had to happen) and battered on with the draw.

I think Campbell is a massive loss for Armagh tbh.

His impact off the bench is anywhere between 3-6pts I reckon. Be it scores or assists.

Not so sure Armagh will beat the Munster men again this year now.

The caveat has always been they will avoid previous parings where possible. Obviously if everyone has played each other, it can't be avoided.

No they don't, why are Donegal playing Monaghan this weekend then? Donegal should be playing Meath and it could have been Galway v Monaghan, Monaghan could also have played Dublin and Tyrone could have played Galway as this would have avoided all the previous encounters. The CCCC make it up as they go along.
