Not massive value there.
Could be someone who comes through the qualifiers.
Paddy Bradley?

Is Brian Farrell the guy with glasses from "Today Tonight" he must be a good age now........

It's a funny auld list all the same. I'd go put my €1 on Copper I'd say...

[seamus]

Cooper won't kick the same level of frees as others.
Conor Mortimer, james masters and devenney look best for me.

[kerryeye]

Quill at 16s and no sign of Sheehan,the bookies musnt have much hope in him startin either cos i think if sheehan played everygame for us this year he'd be very close to it.Stephen o neill at 25s looks the best value.Strange list is right though.

[kerrygold]

armagh must be their favourites to win the all-ireland so.

i cant believe sheehan isnt on it.


no tyrone player till 25 to 1 in 6th place,mossy quinn at 33 to 1 in sevent place,strange.

they musnt fancy dublin and tyrones chances of landing sam.

Gooch's score was low last year plus he doesn't kick a lot of frees for Kerry.
Conor Mortimer could nearly be relied upon not to score of Mayo get to a final.
Stephen McDonnell had a bad year last year as well (by his standards)
Its a funnly looking list though.

Rashers will see a conspriracy with Mossy Quinn so low.

Kerry have four on the list and thats not counting MFR or Sheehan.....

I decided I would do a bit of research and last years list looked like this:

1-36 (39) Conor Mortimer (Mayo)

1-29 (32) James Masters (Cork)

1-25 (28) Matty Forde (Wexford)

2-22 (28) Ross Munnelly (Laois)

1-24 (27) B Kavanagh (Longford)

2-20 (26) Paddy Bradley (Derry)

I'm open to correction on it of course! I didn't think Masters would be so high on the list.

theres no kerry player in that top list of scores even though kerry won there last 4 games by a combined total of 36 points,what does that tell you?

That tells us that we used a lot of different forwards last year and that we spread our scores around betwwen all our players,players like aidan,marc and tomas popped up wit 3 or 4points aswell which is always a huge boost to the team.

[kerryexile]

The best value bet is McConville at 33-1.

He plays for a top side, takes a lot of frees and is handy from play.

Until the Q/F last year he was leading the way.

I actually had a few shillings on him to be top scorer from the start of the championship but unfortunately Armagh got knocked out early ;D

stephen O Neill

[austinstacksabu]

Stephen O'Neill is the best value I've seen for a bet in ages.

Is there something about him I don't know out here in Tingtang land before I lob a few bob on with the Power clan?

[kerrygold]

study tyrones form and body language first if you plan to invest a substantial amount.
