Arles Killeen v Portlaoise
Arles Kilcruise v Emo
Be some crack to see an all Arles final. Killeen are best fixed to beat Portlaoise and with the Kingstons anything is possible. Portlaoise are transitioning a bit at present but still have a formidable outfit and have gone defensive this year. Hard to see them bet though but 9 years, they’re due a loss…
Kilcruise will crush Emo’s spirit and advance by 2 or 3.
Any forum members lining up for Jimmies today?
Kilcruise and Emo a draw. Mick Lawlor still at it for Emo even though he must be 45 if he’s a day, astonishing.
People have got a bit excited with the wins for Cross and Corofin, both against significantly inferior opposition.
Vincents are a great price there, as are Castlehaven.
The resukts in Kerry have put a far different picture on it. I was advised today by a Kerryman that the Munster Club winners probably won’t come from Kerry as Dingle have significant injuries and anyone else is going to be either a first time winner or a long time without a title winner and celebrations will dilute their chances.
Value gone in the Haven. Clonmel are a nice price at 9.0. They have strength, size and decent scoring power. Valuable to winter footballing.
Castlehaven/Michaels/Fermoy treble in the 3 county finals is 5/1 ish. Decent bet. 2nd 2 strong favourites.
Cross will likely have to overcome both Kilcoo and Slaughtneil to prevail in Ulster so I wouldn’t be backing them at those odds.
Slaughtneil are on the easier side of the draw so 17/1 is very good odds on them as I would expect them to make the Ulster final.
Vincent’s at 6/1 to win, Castlebar at 20/1 each way and Scotstown at 33/1 each way are the value in the All-Ireland club SFC market.
A Monaghan team hasn’t reached an Ulster decider in over 20 years.
Neither of the last 2 are anywhere near it. Castlebar wouldn’t have the mobility for Vincents or Castlehaven for instance in CP.
Are there draws made for what province plays what. The surprises when they happen tend to happen in first game back after christmas. Rare enough in finals.
what draw needs to be made? do the provinces not rotate every year?winners of Munster play Leinster in semi final just like the county teams will do in 2016 championship semi final in August
Thats what i am asking really. Not 100% on it.
You may well be bang on
From what I saw of Castlebar two years ago - they are quite mobile.
