Tipsters Competition R12 plus Knockout semi finals

Ahoy again,

Plenty of games on this week, plus there's enough to justify another round of knockouts. Just to balance up the codes, I'm including the junior football semi - seeing as it is club's first teams as well. There's no tie breaker since we'll just have replays next week if any of the semis ends up tied. The semi line-ups are:

McCormack Cup SF's

Swiftpost vs Greatdayfortheparish
Bazza vs Rynaghs Biffo

Daithi Regan Cup SF's

Phoenix vs Muck Savage
DD vs Lone Shark

As per usual, the two SHC knockout games and the Rhode vs Shamrocks match is double the usual points. And apparently tipping hurling draws is the way to riches in this game.

Sat 3pm Kilcormac/Killoughey vs Daingean
Sat 4pm Ballinamere vs Brosna Gaels
Sat 5pm Kinnitty (F) vs Belmont (U)
Sat 5.30pm Rhode (F) vs Shamrocks (U)
Sat 5.30pm Birr Intermediates vs St Rynaghs Intermediates
Sun 5.45pm St Rynaghs (F) vs Tullamore (U)
Sun 5.45pm Lusmagh (-9pts) vs Ballyskenach (+9pts)

LS, should the Kinnity/Belmont game be done with a favourite and an underdog with so little between them on form? I thought the draw the first day would have brought these together.

My general rule on this is that if the favourites are 4/7 or bigger in my head, then I make it an even game - if the favs are 1/2 or shorter, then if's fav vs underdog. I do get it wrong on occasion but Kinnitty were 1/3 pre-match for the drawn game with Paddy Power, and that was without the knowledge that Colm Coughlan was back. Also, since the draw, Kinnitty have had two weeks together to work on their problems - six of the Belmont starters spent week one preparing for a football quarter final, and a match that won't have done anything to boost their mood.

I'll be tipping Belmont out of loyalty to my own lads, but there is no way that they aren't underdogs here.
