Replying To 222:  "Would be a tough one if armagh made the final after all our work in the past 15 years!!"
Don't think they will, for some reason they still play like a team that are still trying to figure themselves out. Conor Turbitt carries them.

Replying To MuineachanAbu:  "Monaghan County Championship

Now that the All-Ireland Championship has come to an end, we focus back on the Monaghan County Championship. This year is hard to call but I am interested to hear who might be in the running in each grade:
Senior Football Championship Final: Scotstown, Latton, Really hard to call?
Intermediate Football Championship Final: Magheracloone, Carrickmacross, Truagh?
Junior Championship Final: Toome, Drumhowan?

When does the groups start?"
Inniskeen for senior along with Latton and Scotstown.

Frist round of the groups start the weekend of the 10/11 August. The groups run through the rest of August and September barring 2 weekends for club hurling semi finals and final."
I suppose it is Scotstown's to lose - they will want to go one better than last year and win an Ulster. However, I really think the Ulster is a grasp too much for them with a aging well weathered squad.

Dark horses are Latton who are showing improvements this year. Inniskeen will be there or there abouts.

Intermediate group B is a group of death. most of the teams have the ability to beat each other bar Blayney. Magheracloone should win group A handy. This is the best intermediate championship in a long long time.

Senior seems predictable enough. Scotstown will stroll through their group while Inniskeen and Latton should have too much quality in group B.

Junior - group A looks the toughest to emerge from. Group B seems a good bit weaker.
