    I'm going to go for O'Loughlins to win the junior and a draw in the senior.

    OLG double I reckon.

    OLG seniors coming in with not much hype about them in comparison to last year. It is very hard to call but I just think their backs are so good, and Sunday could be the day their forwards fire. Some game in store though I'd say there'll be a serious crowd in.

    In Junior, Barrow Rangers wouldn't have been fancied to get this far at the start of the year and tomorrow could maybe be a bridge too far. Again it's hard enough to call but going on how strong OLG looked against a Ballyragget team that knocked out 3 of the fancied teams, if they hurl as well again I can't see Rangers living with them. As we saw last week with Danesfort though, you just never know with finals.

    Would like to see barrow rangers win the junior. Nice to see a new team intermidiate. Hard to know who's come into the final in better shape, barrow rangers with tough match including 2 extra time or o loughlins only 2 matches in the last 6 weeks.

    Would love to see Barrow Rangers win today it would be great for a club that by all accounts are doing huge work and it would be great for them to reap the rewards. If they can play with the same fire they did against Galmoy you'd give them every chance. Hanlon was brilliant for them the last day and if he can have a similar performance it would go a long way. OLG are really good but as was said above the lack of games might come against them but Rangers will have to be at their absolute best to win.

    On the big one it's very hard to know what way it will go. OLG have almost been falling over the line in a lot of their games and haven't looked anyway as impressive as previous years. Yet their still getting the wins but against the team that always find a way to get over the line it's hard to know. Ballyhale's starting 15 for me is still stronger than OLG but their major weakness is the bench like it was 2 years ago. They at most have 1-2 subs any day they can bring in the freshen it up and not drop the standard after that there is usually a drop in standard. Against the lesser teams it's not an issue but against OLG it could catch them again. Ballyhale will be mad for revenge after they lost 2 years ago and that can often get them over the line when they play with that kind of "hurt". I think OLG have a stronger panel and their subs have been making an impact and that could be enough to get them over the line again tomorrow. If I had a gun to my head I'd go for the Shamrocks.

    I would have little confidence that either team would go all the way to an All Ireland this year.
