In hurling tipp and possibly Galway could emerge as challengers to kilkenny.Cork and Waterford look like teams on the wane.In football Galway seem not to far off winning all irelands again.Tyrone have confirmed there an outstanding team while armagh are past their best.Derry remain enigmas as usual.Dublin as usual are way overhyped.I hope they enjoy those Leinster wins its the closest they will get to experiencing an all ireland win.Since the 70s they wonly won 2 all irelands.They were was the thugery of 83 and the 95 team will go down in my book as the worst team to win an all ireland..Please god cork can emerge next year as serious all ireland contenders and finally get the better of kerry in croker.

Very poor year really.

Tyrone vs. Dublin was good in the football and Galway/Clare vs Cork in the hurling.

That's more a preview of next year than areview of this...however, Cork should be in the frame next year as one of the favourites in football...getting closer all the time...and with Conor C's second year we may see him better this year...

Don't agree with Galway at all, what did they show hurling wise this year? Was fierce disappointed in them. They'll need a whole lot more than just Joe to trouble the cats.

Tipp looked good but were deservedly beaten by Waterford, who then went on to get trounced.

If KK are to be challenged it's gonna take 1 team to improve a ridiculous amount from what we've seen this year, won't hold my breath that it could be the Rebels.
