Galway v Armagh final would be great. The two sides have built up a nice rivalry since 2022. They've met 3 times in the Championship and each time it was extremely tight. Galway win on penalties in 2022, Armagh win by 1 point in 2023, and this year a draw.

[@denniskennedy2136]

You could say the same thing for a Donegal and Armagh final. Met three times throughout the year and one point separating the teams over the three games.

[@FCMolde99]

Anyone but kerry

[@MindbodyMedic]

Expect Kerry to win comfortably. On paper it should be competitive, IF armagh had any sort of attacking ruthlessnes. But theyll set up the same dung system and deservedly be sent home. Hopefully a Galway Kerry rematch of 2022 so we can see a decent game.

[@MindbodyMedic]

Fancy Donegal to pip Galway unfortunately, the injuries are gonna haunt Joyce in the cauldron of croker. Hopefully not

[@eamonmac2751]

What’s wrong with donegal being in a final? They’ve played the best football this year out of the last 4

[@hayman5968]

@@eamonmac2751the only half decent team they’ve played is Armagh and should have been beaten if Armagh were able to see out a game

[@Taberesc]

Great use of dung 😂

[@MindbodyMedic]

@@eamonmac2751 nothing wrong, would just be nice to see a very good Galway team avenge their defeat against Kerry. As I say I expect Donegal to get through due to the pitch of battle that will fully test Galways injuries.

Class title 'a year to sunday'

[@Mark-0O]

I don't remember that documentary either. I started watching football in 1999. One thing I do remember is the show 'On Home Ground', a drama series about GAA.

[@tommyrooney_gaa]

Go watch it this week Mark, you'll get the full thing on KZbin!

[@rufus7343]

Galway will look at what Cork done . At this stage any of the 4 teams at their peak can win this . There’s not that much between any of them. !! Whoever has the shooting boots on will come through!!

[@joeclancy868]

Galway v Armagh

[@Nultjac]

Tommy writing off the Kingdom ?

[@daverielly7045]

Armagh are too powerful Armagh to win this by 2

[@atty877]

Depends, I can't see them not being over cautious

[@mickwhytee4]

Galway have strong defensive line on the 50th don’t let much past

[@child689]

I think Donegal will win their game. It’ll be a tight enough game but Donegal will win by at least 2 points

[@patmcc7758]

Hoping for DL v Armagh final.

[@exkatt]

Would be a travesty to have an Armagh Donegal final. I’d say Galway by 5 and Kerry but at least that too.

[@eamonmac2751]

Why a travesty?

[@cyrilw1]

@@eamonmac2751 we've had enough of 15 behind the ball for 70mins... that's just puke football.

[@wonjubhoy]

@@cyrilw1 Donegal scored 4 goals against Derry and tore Tyrone to shreds in Ballybofey. Their games against Clare and Louth were high scoring victories. I fail to see how that is puke football.

[@wonjubhoy]

@@DeclanNohilly which they recovered from by winning the group. You wouldn't say though that it was a game of puke football.

[@Brendan77132]

Galway are not winning that game. Even without their walking wounded they would of found it tough to beat Donegal with a fully fit team.

[@stephenfealy3860]

Armagh should but they wont go for it. Caution again will cost them in a big game in Croker.

[@middevil]

Will it aye 😂😂

[@stephenfealy3860]

Delighted they went for it ​@@middevil

[@David-qy3wx]

Ambiguity 😂

[@pauloneill914]

Heh lads Armagh will win Sam ulster Abu

[@michaeldoogan2567]

Donegal will shock you all you all said Dublin was going to win the All Ireland so it’s open to anyone of the teams now anyway we have the Best manager in Ireland now so I definitely reckon the sam will be heading for the hills again ☘️☘️

[@Hedgebets100]

You were saying??? Gaillimh Abu
