I went with paddy instead of boyles, got kerry at 11/10 and dublin +4 at 5/6.
I think and hope it will be a very close game. Dublin are going into it with very impressive wins under their belt. Galway have only played one game and were not tested.Last edited by Jibzzzz; 07-07-13, 14:55.

Its so annoying, shouldnt be happening and we're suffering because of it. Will hopefully have it fixed asap - every time its "fixed" theres something else.
Bear with us anyways lads

Anyone think Wexford are overpriced at 6/1 against Clare?
I would of had them 5/2 - 3/1. This wexford team ran dublin close and have been building momentum. Clare I think were aiming for a munster and now that there gone I dont think they will be as motivated because IMO they are not ready for an All-Ireland....yet

Well Keane, enjoyed the piece as usual. Will be in croker to hopefully see the Leinster double completed. Cant help but think that a lot of hype has been factored in to the pricing of this match.
Dublin have played twice racking up decent scores but the quality of opposition has been poor. Westmeath without Darcy and Kildare when Johnny doyle has a bad day are two very mediocre teams. Playing with a strong breeze Dublin were only two points up with Doyle having missed a couple of sitters by his standards. The goal before half time was a killer for kildare and once Dublin got a couple of scores in the second half Kildare rolled over.
One thing Meath wont do is roll over and with a bit of momentum and a lot more unity than when Banty was managing I see it being a lot closer than betting predicts. Very interested to see how the backs handle a forward line that can do some damage as I dont feel they have been tested in this regard. With a proven free taker on the opposition they will have to be a lot more disciplined than what i've seen so far.
Agree with what you say about Meaths lack of mobility in Midfield and think you may see big Joe brought out to try and win the kickouts but then Cluxton will go short and they will work through at pace. Mcauley will definitely score pity you cant get odds on it being a pint with the hand. Definitely wont be with the feet!!
If I was a neutral would probably back Meath -9 on the alternative hcap with pp but couldnt bring myself to do it.

Hmm I'm not too sure that bet on MDMcAuley to score is as good value as is being suggested. I'd like to see more stats on his scoring returns to be conclusive but I do know he's not renowned for his finishing and has yet to score in this year's championship. He does like to get forward but he's usually setting up scores rather than scoring them himself. Furthermore I can see him playing a deeper role tomorrow to combat the athleticism of Graham Reilly, undoubtedly Meath's main threat. The belief that he will be part of a dominant team is liikely to materialise but it doesn't necessarily correlate with a high spread of scorers for the winning team.

Just had a look at a few of the Gaa markets over 1.5 points on Cluxton at 4/6 looks decent. I can imagine Meath will play quite aggressive and try to slow the Dubs down before they can get inside the 45. Can see Cluxton getting a few frees.

Armagh -2 @ evens is the bet of the weekend for me, max bet. While Armagh have bounced back impressively from their defeat by Cavan, Galway are in total disarray and nearly got chinned by Waterford. They have home advantage but Armagh are in a different zone at the moment and should win this with a bit to spare
Elsewhere I have Laois @ 5/4 and London +17 @ evens and +18 @ evens

Originally posted by Keane View PostAgree with all but Laois, who I think might see their lack of squad depth catch up with them. Don't think the price is too far off either though.
Ye it's true that Laois' defections have left them with a tight roster to choose from. They do have most of their key men fit and in good form though which counts for a lot in these sort of knock out matches. I don't think the price is far out, but better preparation makes me believe Laois will edge it

As much as it seems like a big spread I can't see how mayo don't our score them by 10-12 each half , unless they make a lot of substitutions and take the foot off towards the end . London will need to be very disciplined if not they will finish the match with 13-14 men as they try to contain this potent attack. 20-25 point margin for me.

Originally posted by conspicuous View PostYour second point about Mayo taking the foot off and emptying the bench is a strong possibility rather than the long shot you suggest it isPm for rakeback deals

I can envisage that situation Conspicuous , I just find it more likely that Mayo will be that much better. The point I was making is that while it seems like a huge spread when you break it down it looks a lot more achievable. If you break it down even further, is it that unbelievable that last years beaten finalists can out score London by just over 4 Pts per quarter?
Sure Mayo may ease off last quarter but this could be negated by Londons inferior fitness.

Originally posted by tipp86 View PostHow does emptying the bench really be seen as a good thing. The 5 lads who come on for Mayo will be working so hard to try and win a place and they will surely still be way above the standard of the London lads. In this weather fresh legs will have a huge bearing on the winning of tight games nevermind games that are well over.

Fair enough point taken . And no I don't think its unbelievable that Mayo can win each quarter by 4.5 points. I just don't think they will do it on average in 4 consecutive quarters of a game. I may be wrong though and the way this game is going it looks like the bookies will be close one way or the other on this occassion.
