Kerry are liable to get caught in quarter final or will face Armagh most likely in semi final. I don't seem them getting through both the banana skin or Armagh.
Armagh may not go back to back but they deserve to be considered the team to beat." Ah no you're right. I'm actually surprised how focused Armagh are and they level of performance they are putting in considering the all Ireland win after a long wait plus all the other distractions in the background. That is a seriously tight ship. They could end up winning the All Ireland yet but Kerrys draw definitely doesn't do them any favours.

Armagh are no great shakes. The reality is there are a whole load of tier two teams at the minute, or at that level. As a Meath fan, and as they're growing in confidence every game and on an upward trajectory, would expect them to give any of the top teams a rattle.
Meath lack experience and game management but it's coming, and when they get there, would actually argue Meath are potentially the best team in the country. Meath in a year or two will have the beating of them all.
Most teams slow and laboured tbh, what Meath have showed in patches is youth and buoyancy, like at the end of the first half against Louth. Couldn't sustain it but that will come. Only team able to burn others though, when the mood takes them.
The standard is poor at the moment, Armagh, Donegal and Kerry the best of a bad lot. But talent and potential wise, Meath are the best team in the country. And the coming team. A sparks been lit, and Meath have finally woken up.
If people don't believe me, Meath and Kerry play at the weekend. Meath won't win, Kerry will on experience. But watch Meath in patches, they'll burn Kerry. In time will be able to sustain this for longer with experience and game management!
But on Saturday, there will be patches where Meath will burn them. And Meath the only team in the country who have the youth and pace to do that tbh
