you at the sham?
any chance of a comeback?

God no - feet up in front of the fire in Cork:pac:

Reading the comments on the link above said Meath had more possession but are very wasteful, while Louth scored from any real chance they had - wasn't expecting that kind of performance from either - quite the opposite!

Finished all square

Meath 1-08 v 0-11 Louth

What a finish !!
Louth's keeper saved a pen in the last min and they went up the other end and score a point - the insurance point...but then Meath score a goal....and then Louth get the equalizing point in the very last minute of injury time!!

There's about a 20% edge on the market prices on the bet I put on livegaelic this week.

Don't want to just spam links to the piece, so if anybody doesn't want to click it's Down, Mayo & Galway at Boyles prices.

Clicks are very much appreciated though

25 on Down/Kerry/Tip treble

Down should be the tighest of the 3 but I reckon they will win.
If Kerry or Tip lose....I'll stop betting on GAA until the championship!

Playing with 14 for most of the second half didn't help Down's case - surprised by Tip needing ET while Kerry walked it.

Red card killed Down.

Cork
Tyrone
Mayo
Monaghan

£10 returns £178.38

rambojon

clare hurlers heavily punted again for tonight match...were 5/4 yest...

ShamoBuc

Going to go with....

Cork
Tyrone
wexford

Cork game will be tight, Tyrone should win as should wexford - expect 3 losses now I've thrown a few quid on them.

paul08

really like the look of derry against a poor galway team, 7/4 is a great price in my opinion dis galway team is consistenly overrated in my opinion as evidenced last yr when they were beaten twice in the championship by teams who were rank outsiders. new management in derry and players will be keen to impress

I would have thought the price looks a bit slim.Wouldnt really rate McIvor as a manager and dont see where the scores will come from to get an away win. This "poor" galway team won in derry last year with a similar spine. Martin is hitting year 2and him linking up with meehan and armstrong could be exactly what this galway team need.
I like the look of them -1. Logic can go out the window in the opening round however!that said i would be waiting for 2/1 upwards before id consider derry.

anyone think leitrim bit overpriced at 4.2 had decent pre season and have good defence and free taker.

Great call on Westmeath today. Went in reasonably heavy @ 1.9. They left it late but won by a single point. I wish I had the nerve to stick it in a double with Fermanagh.

Cheers.

Thought Cork would be better than that - pity as the other 2 won.

Any readers of the Irish News i hope use followed Benny Tierneys tips in Benny's Betting Box. Glad i stuck a tenner on now to win £150.34. Just a pity Cork couldnt get a win so i could get my own bet up

I'm a bit sickened with Westmeath myself as I took them -1. Fermanagh were a bigger bet though, as big as Cork so saved myself some pain there.

Just looking ahead to the Saturday night league fixtures, is it just me or do Monaghan look great value at 13/10 at -2 handicap? I know they're away and it's a local derby but after last weekends results I thought they'd be a shorter price. For a safer option they're 4/6 just for the win and 10/11 at -1, looks like value to me anyway.

Depends how much you think a point is worth relative to the price?

Bennys Betting Box tips

Monaghan
Leitrim
Longford
Donegal

ForeverYoung90

I reckon kerry/dublin draw at 15/2 is worth a punt this weekend.Kerry are missing big players like gooch,o leary,galvin due to club duties and injuries and will have a young and inexperienced team out.Dublin will be strong opposition for this side and are rightfully slight 10/11 fav, but kerry coming off a defeat up in mayo last week they will put up a solid showing in killarney.Should be very close game.

shrewdness

Jesus I couldn't have been more wrong about Monaghan it seems. 0-7 to 0-1 down at half time, and Conor McManus sent off early on. Cavan had a man sent off since too but with neither Paul Finlay or Tommy Freeman on the pitch it's hard to see where the scores are going to come from.

ShamoBuc

Down are a point up at the moment, 9/5 to win!!

edit, good comeback by Donegal to win , ft 0-12 v 0-07

Louth Galway off for anyone thinking of betting on it. Thinking Dublin limerick Meath treble today

Hope you backed your thoughts.

Had Dublin, Meath, sligo and Mayo....oh Mayo:(


Edit: Just watched the highlights and I'm even more annoyed. Mayo 2 pts up 10 seconds left of injury time and ......penalty to Tyrone, a 1 point loss....gutted!!

I wouldn't beat yourself up too much over that, a game with an early red card really throws everything else into confusion so nothing to say your original bet wasn't a good one.

trying to pick a bet for the weekend, thinking cross crokes double, anything else i cant put with it for a treble , increase my odds ??

rambojon

just a word of caution pass.. incresing your odds while decreases your chances.. bookies will love it every day of the week... cross kk (hurling) double.. looks good to me if you can wait for the outrights... good luck.

yea agree with you jam, cheers..i would always be cautious enough anyway,..KK is a good shout for outright

KevIRL

Sigh, thought Galway (evs) and Clare (3/10) would have been priced bit bigger for this weekends league games. Will be taking Galway anyway at that price, think that they will have enough for KK in Pearse stadium, if it was Nowlan Park then maybe a bit different.

In terms of the league overall I think Galway 5/2 to win division 1A is a cracking bet. They have 3 home games and 2 away, the homes are against KK, Tipp and Cork and they travel to Clare and Waterford. Couldnt be more favourable. Also can see them being pretty determined to have a good league to ensure competitive games for as long as possible given that they pretty much have a bye into the Leinster Championship thanks to a super handy draw. They are available at 3/1 to win the League outright, but I think the 5/2 on winning 1A is the better bet as it rules out a loss in the playoffs.

Will have a closer look at the other league games closer to the weekend, initial thoughts are that Galway (evs) and Tipp (4/6) look worth a bet, gonna have to check the handicap in the other 1A game when its up. Zero value in any of the 1B matches this weekend imo

ciaran1988

i agree Kev not much value about in the Hurling. Agree with Tipp havent made my mind up about anything else. Maybe try a wee bet on Offaly to beat Dublin
