I totally agree if Limerick full forwrds can destroy them Galway will go close to doing what Tipp did. I see at least 4 goals for Galway

Over 2.5 goals are 2/7 with PP.

Over 2.5 Galway goals is 6/4.

I think a great bet this weekend is over 31.5 points in the Wexford, Limerick game @ 10/11. Both Wexford and Limerick have been posting big scores recently and I can see a few goals in this game so I don't think 16 points each is too much of an ask. Weather is forecast to be good aswell so conditions shouldn't be too challenging.

Man of the match betting isn't up for the hurling games on Sunday but I'll be throwing a few quid on Declan Hannon. He'll be taking the frees for Limerick and I can see him having a big game. Limerick at 7/4 is a tempting price for me too but I won't put the hex on them and put my money on them.

Cork minus 2 @ 4/5 against Down is another bet I'll be doing aswell. I think Down aren't the team people are making them out to be. Poor against Clare. Struggled for a while against Leitrim who wouldn't exactly be setting football alight and were flattered a bit against Antrim. I feel they got lucky in the championship last year too but that's for another thread.

Offaly SFC

Theres 3 matches i have picked out

Walsh Island (10/3) V Clara (1/4)

The Island are massively overpriced. Clara are sturggling this year having only won one championship match so far. They have lost 3 of there young players to travelling and this was seen last week when they were beaten by an average Ballycumber side. Walsh Island are an up and coming team having won the intermediate 2 years ago. Since then they have been well able to compete with the top teams in the Senior. Altough they are missing Brian Connor due to travels aswell they have a very committed team with talented forwards. 10/3 is very overpriced imo and i can see this shortening come saturday. If Walsh Island get a run at Clara i can see clara collapsing like they did against Gracefield.

St Rynaghs (5/4) V Shamrocks (8/11)

I would of had St Rynaghs as favourites. Shamrocks are in dire straits this year. The club in general is gone to the dogs losing players to Emigration, Transfers, Loss of Interest and to other sports. Hard to belive they were on of the top teams a few years ago. Rynaghs won intermediate last year and are going well this year having won one and and losing to Gracefield by a point who are unbeaten so far. Shamrocks should be favourites for relegation from senior. Close game but Rynaghs should be expected to do the job

Edenderry (4/5) V Tullamore (6/5)

Since the last round of the championship Tullamor have lost 7 of there starting team. One of these is offaly hurler Shane Dooley who is by far there biggst loss as he is there main scorer. They havent won a game in the championship yet and are stuggling at the moment as a lot of there junior team will not move up to help there seniors. Edenderry on the other hand are on excellent form athe moment. Beating Rhode seniors in league semi-final last week and then losing to ballycumber in Extra time in the final on saturday last. They have a very young team mixed with a few of the older generation from the last winning championship side. Edenderry to win with a few to spare.

Gonna do an accumalator which pays 17.5/1 and 3 x Doubles

Yeah the predictions are getting tougher to predict.
Everyone is stating the obvious teams will win this weekend.
They did last weekend. emm at too sure at the moment..

djPSB · 21-07-2011 04:39PM

Limerick @ 7/4 to beat Dublin is a good bet IMO.

Donal O' Grady will have them prepared. Dublin wont like going to Thurles.

Since the league, Dublin haven't done much:

Narrowly beat a poor Offaly side.

Bet a well off form Galway side who weren't going well.

Well bet by Kilkenny when the pressure was on.

djPSB · 21-07-2011 04:41PM

Didn't see the Ulster final but Derry +5 @ 8/11 seems generous.

QDog10 · 21-07-2011 04:44PM

Limerick footballers and hurlers are a good bet this weekend. Footballers are 2/1 to beat an average Wexford side.

Read a piece there over the last few days, an interview with Donal O'Grady and he suggested that limerick were at a different stage of development to dublin. However he didnt comment on it - as he had links in both limerick and dublin. the suggestion that I take is that dublin are at a different stage of development..

Ya true. Two Bradleys are a major loss.

The fact its on in Croker wont help them either.

I dunno I guess it depends what you take from, or you might have to ask o'grady himself but he have his team will prepared. But Feck keaney out, will be a very tight now!

I agree 100%....and have backed accordingly but I also thought they would take Waterford...should have in fairness...some very naive defending cost them.

7/4 seems about right to me, yes DOG will have them well prepared, are you suggesting Anthony Daly wont have Dublin equally prepared?

Why wont Dublin like Thurles, it is a hurling teams field and they very much will aprecciate the good surface and wide open spaces?

You question Dublin's form since the League, what have Limerick actually achieved in the same timeframe?

There into 6/4 now. Keaney out injured. Broke his leg in a motorbike accident this morning. Massive loss.

Dublin are going in as favourites. The only championship game they were favourites for this season was the Offaly game. Very poor that day.

The game not being played in Croker is a massive disadvantage for Dublin IMO.
- Limerick will be more used to playing in Thurles.
- Dublin's support numbers will be down, Limericks up.

We'll know more on Sunday at 3.30.

djPSB · 22-07-2011 03:03PM

Also fancy the Wexford footballers v Limerick. Think I'll double them up with Limerick hurlers.

Offaly scored 15 points against Limerick in the qualifier.

Wexford held them to 8 points in the Leinster championship and they gave Dublin a fright, got unlucky with a freak own goal. I think this Wexford team will take one big scalp before they get knocked out.

Wexford are favourites so no scalp, I'm afraid. They should win though.
I'll be backing Armagh(SF) and Waterford(SH) at +2 and +5 respectively on the handicaps are both are good value 1/1 money shots.

Not saying Limerick is the scalp. I think they have the potential to beat a big team if they progress against Limerick.

I think Keaneys loss is more than offset by the combined return of Ryan O'Dwyer and Limerick's loss of Donal O'Grady who has been excellent thus far.

Limerick going in as favourites really has no bearing on the game IMO, players are mature enough not to take any notice of bookies prices tbh, and while they did underperform against Offaly, Offaly are no where near as bad as people make out, they should of actually beaten Cork in the Pairc.

Dublin will have a reasonable support on Sunday, the train service from Dublin to Thurles is second to none and the Dubs like a day out in Thurles as much as anyone.

I agree with you on the football btw, I think Wexford are been horribly under rated and will as you say ruffle a few feathers before the year is out.

funnyname · 22-07-2011 06:13PM

Anyone have the tips from today's racing post?

T2daK · 22-07-2011 07:50PM

Did just there.....

Galway -5
Wexford -3
Cork-3
Kildare.

Hope to get a nice return to invest in the Galway Races

smacg · 22-07-2011 08:03PM

GAA betting seems to be offering very good value for money these days. I have had several bets up this year so far as most games now go as expected unlike a few years ago.
Tyrone, Kildare and Cork treble tomorrow is over 2.5-1, that surely is good value.

ForeverYoung90 · 22-07-2011 09:34PM

Kildare-3 & Cork double.50e returns 107.33e!Easy money?

c_man · 23-07-2011 11:22AM

Everyone seems to be on the same boat

Going for a double of Cork -2 and Kildare -1. Down are in no great shape and this strong Cork side will be eager to get motoring in the qualifiers. Kildare are just building week on week, they'll be too much for the nordies.

Might have another punt on the other matches. Haven't really looked at prices, just up!

Edit: The price for that is 2.22 for 1

Yeah i'm having some of that.

djPSB · 23-07-2011 12:48PM

My bet is:
Limerick hurlers +5
Wexford footballers to win.

€50 pays €101

Best of luck biyz

MikeyGorse · 23-07-2011 01:22PM

Going doing Kildare -2,Cork -2 & Wexford -1.

50 pays 190

c_man · 23-07-2011 07:39PM

Nice one lads.

Good luck to those of ye waiting on Wexford.

keysersoze0330 · 23-07-2011 07:42PM

Great days work. Everything went to plan. No shocks.
