Slaughtneil look a great bet against sarsfields on Sunday at 13/8. Hard to see where bookies are getting these odds considering slaughtneils performances at this stage. OK Sars were brilliant against ballygunner but would you bank on them repeating that performance when the expectation is on them to win.

Also ballinascreen on the junior semi might be worth a fiver. Put up a big score in the ulster final. Up against a Russell rovers team who I don’t think are all ireland winning material

I had to look twice when I saw slaughneill were 13/8.

A lump job.

[BruidheanChaorthainn]

Would it be impossible for there to be like an actual Ulster club championship like a standard county championship with all the top Ulster clubs in it? Or would it do more harm than good?

[Loko_Cove]

What price do you think you should be out of interest?

[BruidheanChaorthainn]

I’d have just assumed they were favs. I haven’t looked at the odds for this all year tbf.

[Loko_Cove]

Personally I’d prefer NAF at 6/4 in the outright.

[BruidheanChaorthainn]

I wouldn’t have an opinion on that one as I don’t see any reason why both teams won’t perform to their best and I doubt there’s a pile between the sides anyway.

[peddlerscross]

To use a Tennis analogy, Na Fianna are a break up in the fifth.

I wouldn’t be an expert in it but if you put top 6 in Antrim plus top 3 in Down & Slaughtneil together you’d have a serious championship.

There is cross county leagues between Antrim & Down and Slaughtneil have been asked to enter but do their own thing.

Logistically Slaughtneil are miles away I suppose.

Anyone know anything about Loughrea?? @KinvarasPassion

Throw me together an accumulator for 2025 that i could throw in as part of a present.

For a Tipp person so a tipperary slant on it is fine but prices would need to be available to do in a shop this week.

Tipp relegated from division 1a and bottom of Munster SHC would be around 8/1 if you asked for it, be a bit of dark humour.

I think Kiladangan will win Tipp SHC next year. Didn’t see odds yet now but they’ll be about 5/2.

I was intrigued by the Derry teams showing in the ulster club so I did a bit of background research.

The 2024 Derry hurling championship was 8 teams with the top 4 going into the senior semi finals. The winners played in the senior final but here’s where it gets complicated, the losers played in the “intermediate” final. This was Swatragh.

The “junior” semi finalists are team 5-8 in the senior championship so in reality Ballinascreen are team #5 in Derry.
Slaughtneil are way ahead of the rest up there but there isn’t much in it after that so Ballinascreen could be very good and are putting up huge scores albeit against questionable teams.

My cork contacts tell me Russel rovers are very strong.

Swatragh the club of Anthony Tohill - wonder did he ever play hurling?

[BruidheanChaorthainn]

No idea but the young lad is called back into the Derry panel

Throw Drom for Dan into it for the craic

[TreatyStones]

You still have to give me 5 teams for 2025

[peddlerscross]

Just having a look there on Boyles.

Maybe Tipp for the Camogie at 11/2 for the Tipp angle but i don’t know enough about that. Maybe @RunningBelowXg would know more.

I like Tyrone for the Football All Ireland. I see Boyles have them at 10’s

Limerick will surely win the Hurling League at 9/4. If he hates Limerick then take Cork at 7/2

I’d say Waterford will walk 1B of the League but its 8/11.

Kildare will surely bounce straight back out of Division 3 of the Football League but they are 6/4.

On the club scene its way too early really to be making wild predictions.

@Whackersstud11 @endakenny will have opinions too.

[TreatyStones]

Who do you fancy to finish out the club all Irelands? A brave call as the bet could be down the swanny in the first week

[peddlerscross]

Na Fianna for the Hurling.

Cuala for the Football.

Be nice as a gift though to be able to follow his teams through the National Leagues at least so I’d discourage you strongly from picking club stuff in January.

[TreatyStones]

Ya I was thinking the same myself, league and county championship bets will give more bang for the buck
