Hopefully Kildare will rest a few players as we can get a result away, without that I'd say Offaly are a sure bet against a regulated Limerick, Tipp have their county champions back but have a difficult trip against Sligo, I fear we'll have to get something to go up.

Clareman wrote: » A nice draw against Kildare to setup a final in Croke Park would be nice as well :P Sligo v Tipperary - You'd imagine that home advantage would be worth the win here but Tipp have their heavy hitters back as well, wouldn't be surprised with a draw but any win will do Longford v Westmeath - Westmeath have a proud history and won't go down without a fight, Longford weren't interested in the second half today but have something to play for next week, again home field advantage is crucial. Limerick v Offaly - Limerick have had a terrible season, hard to see past an Offaly win here Kildare v Clare, amaingly considering we were only promoted last year we're kicking ourselves for not being promoted with a round to spare. Clare will be going in on the back of a great performance, Kildare will already be looking forward to the final.

windy shepard henderson wrote: » if clare are level with one team on 8 points head to head will kick in , but if more then one team level on 8 points it will boil down to scoring average , clare are + 30 in this regard and far superior then everyone else
Boots234 wrote: » So really we just need to Longford or Sligo to win and we are up as we have won the head to head with both of those and if any other teams are involved then scoring difference will come into play
