Re: GAA 2-3 July
My bets and a few words about each ...
Waterford +12 (now +11 @ EVS, cut as predicted)
Waterford are under - rated by the bookies here IMO . Meath captain Stephen Bray is missing through injury . Waterford conceded only 1 goal in the league so Meath will find it hard to clock up a big score . I wouldnt read too much into Waterford ' s defeat by Cork , as Cork have since shown that they are serious contenders for the All Ireland when beating Kerry
Carlow -9 @ 6/5
Donegal dropped 2 players from their panel this week for disciplinary reasons . They have already lost to one div 4 team , Antrim , in the championship and morale in the camp is surely low . I feel that this game will be closer than the bookies predict .
Laois (hurling) @ 11/5
Laois with home advantage in this hurling qualifier . Antrim were 1 / 8 tb Down last week in the Ulster final but only won thanks to 2 injury time points . Laois got well beaten by Galway last time out , but played the majority of the game with only 13 men . Both teams are very unpredictable and Antrim should only be slight faves IMO . 11 / 5 = big value
Will also chance a small bet on No goals in Meath - Waterford at 4/1
Waterford conceded 1 goal in 8 league games . Meath scored 2 in 7 .
Meath had goalless game with Dublin in last round . Asmittedly there were 4 goals in Waterford v Cork , ( very out of character for Waterford ) . all things considered I feel 4 / 1 is worth a bet
