GAA Betting

linvoysblues

Haven't used this site for a few months, but got an e-mail from them today saying they have started taking bets on GAA.

It's a bit different to normal betting, you answer a bunch of questions and if you get more right than everyone else you win the money. They've got todays 2 games up and they give you a free tenner to try it out if anyone fancies it.

Won a fair bit with them earlier in the year but stopped using them, gonna stick a few quid on the Donegal match this afternoon.

Short price treble :
Kerry over .5 goals 2/7
Sligo 4/11
Longford 4/7
What you lads think??

I did the above except picked Kerry to get over 1.5 goals. Was "home and dry" when Kerry got the second goal.
London and Wicklow had other ideas lol.

That went well!!

Limerick u21s play Tipp tomorrow night in Semple Stadium, Thurles.

Limerick have named a strong team, which includes 5 players that played in the Munster winning team of 2011, and interestingly has one starter from that game on the bench, as he failed to win his place this year. It's a strong forward line, most notably with the inclusion of Declan Hannon and Shane Dowling, and in the full back line they have two Senior panelists in Mark Carmody and Alan Dempsey, along with Barry O'Connell at centre back who I believe is just out of minor but has been on the u21 panel (and played in the 2011 final, coming on as a sub) these past two years.

Tipp have a fairly strong team too, and have home advantage. Last year they caused a surprise when beating Limerick comfortably (although there was only 5 in it at the end). Crucially though, Tipp have lost both Denis Maher and John O'Dwyer who combined accounted for 1-12 of their 1-16 total. They have also lost target man Cian Hogan (not a great hurler but had a physicality they seem might lack tomorrow night) and Stephen Maher who is overage. They are all overage.

In addition, the talented John Meagher is unavailable through injury and John McGrath (Noel's younger brother) is also unavailable. There are also question marks over the fitness of Liam McGrath and Niall O Meara I believe though they are named to start.

Verdict: Going with Limerick on this one, think they have the quality to prevail. Can be got at 6/4 with Boylesports and Ladbrokes, and for the more conservative among you they are 11/10 with Boylespots to win with a +1 handicap.

I'm going to have a little nibble this weekend on the GAA generally dont like backing until the quarter finals but a couple of small bets for interest this weekend.

Dublin -6, Offaly +9 and Derry outright, just going to throw them in a trixie.

MUFC91CS

Football:

Offaly +9
Derry

Hurling:

Carlow +4
Clare -2

Thinking of going Waterford +14 as well, no real motivation for Kerry and they are coming coming of a game 6 days ago. Anyone have any opinions ??

Gonna take the overs in the hurling on Sunday, likely to be a fine hot day and a great sod in Thurles. Clare scored highly in the league while hitting a lot of wides and surely have been working on converting those wides lately. Waterford scored highly in recent challenge matches including 2-30 v Limerick last weekend.

Two main bets for me today
Dublin v Westmeath - Dublin over 1.5 goals @ 6/5 PP - This was a very profitable bet last year and hopefully it will continue this way, Dublin love scoring goals as it helps their ego's and they love to celebrate them in front of the hill but seriously they have the fowards and never let up when their on top so looks a good bet to me.
Kildare v Offaly - Kildare over 1.5 goals @ 5/4 PP - Savage value here i think, Kildare have hit that in 5/8 league game against much better opponents than Offaly and they have also changed their style of play to try to get more goals.

Treble of Kerry Dublin and Kildare all over 1.5 goals

Long shot - Donaghy first goal scorer @ 9/1 - was in the press all week say he needs to be more clynical and greedy so hopefully he obliges

Gonna have punt on over 1.5 goals on both Dublin and Kerry. 20 returns 80 on the double

S Cluxton Over 1.5 Points 11/8

You beat me to it by seconds. Cluxton still takes frees/45's for the Dubs, right?

Ah I see now why you couldn't make the bet. I tried to place it there again but only one of the selections were ticked. Just make sure both are ticked for the double. PP acting the ***** again:pac:

magherakid

that's it now Fowler cheers good luck

Radonman

Absolutely disgusted with Kildare not covering the over 1.5 - they had the chances but bottled it by fisting over the bar etc although to be fair MulhAll did make some decent saves - all I can say now is c'mon the Dubs

Fairplay on that one, could be another goal or two in the game now that Kerry have one.

There's the Kerry 1.5 for ye anyway.

Fuk you Connolly - good man the Star

Fowler87

How the Dubs haven't scored at least a goal in this is baffling. Meh

Urgh seeing those 3 Connolly misses again makes losing that bet even more sickening
