    The draws for next year are on tomorrow,so something to look forward to and discuss

    No idea about hurling but here is my take on football.

    Leinster
    Noting to see here

    Munster
    Tipp get a bye into the SF,but I reckon they will be "ridden rock solid" and get drawn against the other team that gets a bye, Kerry.

    Ulster
    Will Tyrone continue their upward trend, team most likely to beat Dublin in 2016 you know ?.
    Can Donegal win back Ulster, lots here not happy with Rory ?
    Will Division 1 football help Cavan ?
    How frigged are Monaghan and how more frigged are Armagh ?

    Connacht
    Can Mayo get off the floor, again ?
    How good or bad are Galway and Roscommon really, they showed us both season.

    Leinster
    Dublin.

    Munster
    Kerry. Hopefully Tipp can come good again next year, Cork need to up their game after a terrible 2016

    Ulster
    Tyrone, unless Donegal can make a big improvement on last year.


    Connacht
    Mayo or Galway for me. I'm not convinced by Roscommon.

    I reckon you are right here. They will give Cork an easy route to the Munster final in the hopes of a Cork V Kerry Munster Final in the new Pairc Ui Chaoimh.

    Cork v Waterford/Clare v Limerick

    Kerry v Tipperary

    That wouldn't be a bad draw. As bad as Cork have been recently, They seem to find something extra against Kerry. The match-up usually makes for a decent final.

    While I don't think there is any conspiracy out there against Tipp its the kind of bad fortune that sometimes hits smaller teams.

    Limerick senior footballer get their first ever championship game in CP in 2011, and who is it against ?, Kerry.

    Same with Clare this year, first ever QF, against Kerry of course.

    Roscommon win Connacht in 2010 and end up playing Cork in the QF.

    No I'm taking the piss! :D

    Of all the things for the GAA to fix, the Munster Football Championship would be way way down the list i'd imagine.

    Trust RTE to make a simple draw into a 90 minute programme.
    Half-hour max.
    What a shower of wasters.

    Tough draw for us but playing Tipp in the semi final will really show have we improved or not, Cork could surprise people and may win the qf u never knw. Having a game under there belts will deff be an advantage for the Qf winners

    Expecting that QF to be in the new PUC with a possible Tipp vs Wat semi being there too

    A quick queation about the round robin in Leinster.

    Why did Offaly get a bye and not Westmeath?

    Westmeath topped the Round Robin group last year, so why don't they get the bye?

    New PUC will be open for the final, no earlier. Thats what the plan was anyway.

    On topic, highly doubt we'll win vs. Tipp tbh.

    The teams that come out of the round robin have to beat the team they meet in first round of championship proper to get out of the round robin the following year. This year offaly beat laois putting laois into next years round robin while westmeath lost to galway.

    Your right! I totally forgot Offaly beat Laois, I had it in my head that they lost.

    Makes sense.

    There's not much point having a draw for the Leinster championship. Even if you had Dublin vs a "Rest of Leinster" 15. Dublin would still win.

    4 different teams have been among the winners of the last 10 Connacht championships in fairness.
