I think, to be fair to connacht football, you could have 3 potential champions at this stage.

I don't think that can be said for any other province at the moment. Donegal, kerry and Dublin all odds on to be in the semi finals

Looking forward to this. Could go any way 
They finally did it man... They killed my f**kin' car...

Remember seeing them against Dublin in the Super 8s a couple of years ago and they give them a right game for 60 minutes. Don't seem to have kicked on much. If there's a day to make their mark though it's today
Not as if they have had much chance to, they've been in Division 3 this year

This is their first real chance since the Super 8s last year to show if they've made progress

I'm guessing what you really mean is to beat Kerry rather than "play football". Anyone who's seen Cork play in the past few years knows that our problem has been playing too much football. Were level with Kerry, Dublin and Tyrone in the last 10 mns last season but didn't close it out. Really need to tighten up at the back and get a bit more defnesive to turn those positions into wins.

How did you get tickets?

America doesn't have a PM, it has a President

If you're referring to Ireland, we have a Taoiseach

Wait until they get Wicklow in the final, our first Leinster title is coming home 💪
Could be a mountain to climb, or several

I think the leagues are important anyways, but it could be given more importance alright. Condidering the bulk of football is in the league.

But that format above is ridiculous

I would love the leagues to be the more important. Have them home and away and then keep Provincials but have straight knockout championship incorporating the provincials and run it off quickly like this year. Probably wouldn't work though

Tipp have beaten Limerick 1-15 to 2-11 after extra-time and are into the Munster final

We again narrowly miss out on the first ever penalty shoot out in the championship

Conor Sweeney of Tipp pointed a Maurice Fitzgerald style sideline ball to level the game with almost the last kick of normal time
