After an epic league campaign, everyone is fascinated to see how the football season will round up in the championship.
Can Tyrone retain Ulster, never mind an All-Ireland? Are Dublin finally going to lose a game in Leinster? Will Mayo go out in the first round of Connacht as they play a dangerous Galway team?
