Solid weekend of GAA.

I'm finally back at home after two great weeks of enjoying myself at the golf and the music. To finish off the weekend there were a lot of matches on in the hurling and the football.

I gave my predictions in my last post before the weekend of who was going to qualify from the super 8's in the football and the matches went fairly straight forward. With Dublin, Donegal and Tyrone winning fairly easily that all went according to plan. Kerry at home won as well which was not unexpected but to do it so easily against an experienced Mayo team was a shock to me.

There were also two hurling quarter finals on at the weekend with Cork coming through a good battle and Tipperary winning easily as expected.

For my part I put on one accumulator bet which covered six of the weekend games.






It was a €10 bet to win €68 and while I got all the winners right, Tipperary only won by 10 points while I was looking to break a 12 point handicap. I honestly though they would do a lot more than that but seemed to run out of ideas against a poor side. Such is life.

There will be two weeks until the hurling semi-finals in croke park with Kilkenny taking on the reigning hurling champions Limerick and then Tipperary to go up against a solid Wexford team.

Until then we have another full weekend of the football with Kerry v Donegal the one to watch.

Was some weekend of it. Kerry beating Mayo handed Dublin the 5 in a row. If there is any team that can maybe ..just maybe beat the Pale its Mayo. Kerry will fall short

I'm hoping Donegal can take them on in a physical battle at least. Kerry will be taken apart by Dublin. Especially with Connolly getting brought back into the team.

Controversial. If the Visa goes through is he still heading to the states? It could derail them

Nope. Visa is expired so no America for him this year. He is back training since last week and might appear before the end of the super 8's. Controversial but he is a game changer. Some player to have waiting on the sideline with the game in the balance.

Yeah hes unreal. Scored 2-2 with his club last week from half back. Ha . I thought he applied for a new Visa but it came back to him due to some discrepancy but it may still go through. Well that's what they said on OTB tonight. Whatever it is he may be played against kerry. Dublin sub bench not what it was

The new visa had to be in before the 1st of july as far as I know and when it got send back to him over the discrepancy he missed the deadline. That's what i've seen so he won't be allowed to play there this year.
