Emlyn Mulligan is 7/2 JF to be the top scorer in the SFC with PP. Is this not a bit ridiculous? Sure, he might get a decent score against London, a few frees against Mayo and ditto in their inevitable one-and-done qualifier exit. Surely this wouldn’t be enough to get close to the top?

What did he score against New York?

[maroonandwhite]

3-7 I think. He has a great chance and went from 40s to 12-1 immediately and now to this when sligo were beaten. About 25 points can usually win it. He’ll get 6/7 against London then maybe 5 per game in the connacht final and qualifier they play. If London beat them he won’t win it

[Blake]

Ah right okay, makes sense if he scored that much.

Decent, they’ll put it up to Offaly and would be expecting to beat them. Ross King is back, he was captain last year and has been playing soccer with UCD all year, otherwise he’d be in serious consideration for the Seniors. Willie Dunphy is injured as is Cha Dwyer so they’ll be big losses, but they have enough to get over Offaly you’d hope. Laois hurling is buzzing at the moment and there’s a prospect of a decent crowd (in Laois hurling terms) to be there as well.

Laois - 1 are Evens with PP’s. Any last minute info myboyblue?

Just on this:
2012: McFadden 4-32
2011: Cooper 2-27
2010: Johnny Doyle 1-49
2009: Cooper 1-34
2008: Doyle 2-26

So 25 winning it in the modern era is off. Double 25 wouldn’t even have won in 2010.

Yeah but I think most posters would have considered the source for the 25 point comment and dismissed it out of hand. Thanks for the empirical back up nonetheless!

Research is king, CLD can you give the number of games played by each to reach those totals

Factually incorrect. He was 4/1 the day after the New York match

[dodgy_keeper]

Think my main bet this weekend will be Monaghan (-4) at 11/10 versus Antrim. Was very impressed with them in the league final, think they’ll have far too much for Antrim.

May have a small nibble on a Louth and Monaghan win double which works out around evens. Not sure about Louth though, had a great win against Laois but Wexford surely have one big game in them, whether in the Leinster championship or in the qualifiers.

I wouldn’t be sure about Louth and Wexford either. Wexford have 2 world class forwards in Lyng and Barry, the best midfielder in the province in Daithi Waters and an outstanding full back in Graham Molloy (if fit). That’s enough good players to build a team around in Gaelic Football.

The only concern I’d have is that the natives have probably made threats to the life of the referee who only lives across the road in Longford.*

I see you mentioned him on another thread but it’s not Fahy, is it?

No it’s some lad called Fergal Kelly. Never heard of him. He’s hardly another Niall Barrett though. All joking aside I’d say the poor bastard will fear for his safety in that shit hole in Drogheda. The natives can get very testy and the security wasn’t the best the last time I was there.

Being a sad cunt, I watched him referee Derry-Armagh in the league on Setanta one Saturday night and thought he was excellent. I even noted his name.

Theres a reason I dont bet. Dreadful start, down 1-4 to 0-0 after 5 mins. Pulled it back before half time and second half was great entertainment. 2-15 each going into injury time when Offaly pointed a free. Picky Maher had a 60 yarder to level it or his 12th of the game and send it to extra time which was the least they deserved but missed unfortunately.

Missing injured players and decision to leave the minors with Critchley while a valid one, probably cost them. Still, not a bad night in the development of Laois hurling.
