The 2024 All Ireland Senior Football Championship (Sam Maguire Cup)

I think there is a little bit of disrespect being shown to kerry.

Everyone is on about their form but they have been solid so far in 2024.

A few kicks of the ball last year and they would be going for 3 in a row, it's very hard to see any of the three remaining teams beat them. Paddy tally has them well drilled.

Armagh are better than championship Derry and way more attacking options so I think they can ask some questions of Kerry but they haven't been impressive, especially in Croke Park. Galway let them back in to the round Robin game with 2 terrible kickouts and still should have won it. They did similar in the drawn game two years ago with bad keeping errors and a wayward crossfield ball from Shane Walsh.

But Armagh weren't impressive in either game. They also looked poor against a 14 man Roscommon who they struggled to shake off. They seem to struggle with the pace of the ball round Croke Park and it exposes all their biggest flaws. Kerry haven't set the world alight so far but I'd expect a significant step up from them on Saturday. Not a hammering, but a comfortable win.

wrong thread bud

nah he's from London

Kerry will beat Armagh with a good bit to spare and might even turn on the style.

Galway might just sneak past Donegal in what could turn out to be a very tactical game and maybe a bruising one (there's going to be some very big men on the field) with probably a heavy price in injuries and or suspensions for the winner.

Kerry will stroll to the All Ireland.

Armagh are very strong defensively and dangerous on the break so I think it'll be a cagey affair.

It's a nice dry day at least.

Jeez no talk about the semi finals at all
They really need to move them back a few weeks

Had to go looking for the Galway team
If that team starts I’m scared :D
On the other hand they may be starting with 3/4 injured players
McGuinness will run the legs off them

Lovely free from D Clifford

As I predicted so far, Kerry will be around 6-8 points by the 40 minute mark. Kerry picking off scores, Armagh in the Gladiator "hold, hold" mode. The main difference to that is Armagh will only attack when it is way too late.

Kerry the better team so far. Armagh are simply boring.

Armagh very poor here. Could be 8-10 victory for kerry.

One pass too many for Armagh. Easy point on and Grugan hand passes it off instead.

Gavin White cleaning out O'Neill. Must be decent odds for MOTM.

The main problem for me is teams all over the country attempt to play like Armagh or Donegal from Jimmys first term but are nowhere near as good as it. They end up having no attacking threat and they are not even solid in defence.
