2 super days of football ahead ,
Think it will be 4 tight games ,
Starting tomorrow

Donaghmoyne by 2 or 3
Think they will have too much fire power in the likes of garland , 2 mc Donald's and conor Burns
Killanny don't have the same level of scores

Carrick to beat Blaney by 4,
O hanlon back is massive for them, add in the louth recruit maguire, think they ll have too much in attack for Blaney

On Sunday
Scotstown are Scotstown, hard bet anyday but from here in , very very hard to beat ,
But going to put my head on the block,
Mc manus being the difference , Clontibert by 2
Really exciting game this one

Magheracloone hoping to reproduce last week's performance, they ll be hoping they haven't played their final last week
Inniskeen by 4, probably have too much with 2 Jones, woods and mc nulty


Hope they are all as close as above

Predicting a comfortable victory for Carrick today. They should win the Ulser Intermediate Club Championship this year.

Like the last time the Moy schooled them in Ulster….

Where's all the Blayney men? Will Johnny Logan be on repeat?

Killanny Wanted that far more than us today. A very impressive performance and credit where it's due, hope they go on to win it now.

That should quiten the Blaney crickets for a while.

Schooled them? Moy beat them by a point (a last minute free from Sean Cavanagh), and Carrick should have won comfortably that day. Moy went on to win the All Ireland that year. They would get it tight against Eglish/Clonoe (whichever one comes out of Tyrone, I'd be guessing Eglish) but I'd fancy Carrick to win it out. Serious team there.

As for the Castleblayney boys, hopefully they'll spend the winter honing their skills on the field rather than on this hoganstand forum. Might suit them better.

Impressive from killanny today. Have to definitely see themselves as favourites. I believe 4-14 today which is excellent shooting. They will think they can break Carrick down and go all the way. Definitely the favorites in my eyes on paper. Hard luck to blayney today. Malone some operator. Donaghmoyne never got going, maybe they weren't allowed.

And that man is manager of the U20 team next year? Embarrassing result, championship is where you're judged

Hardly an embarrassing result losing to the favourites?

A lot of quiet delusional Blayney folk in here now.

On to the big boy stuff tomorrow.
Going to be some great matchups across the board that should be worth the admission alone.
If McCarthy and O'Toole are missing, Clontibret have every chance. If history has taught us anything over the last 12/13 years, it's that if anyone is going to beat them, it'll be the men in yellow.

Magheracloone have every chance vs Inniskeen too. A fair few of these Magheracloone players have experience playing in a county final in 2017, so they shouldn't be phased by the big day.

Matchups galore to look forward to:
Dylan Byrne on Woods or Jones
Jack Doogan on McNulty?
Shane Hanratty on Paudie McMahon?
Conor Boyle/Killian Lavelle on Jack McCarron
Damien McCardle on McManus
Who marks Aaron Carey/Dean McDonnell for Scotstown?

Should be a good day out in Clones.
Scotstown by 2 points
Inniskeen and Magheracloone to be a draw!
