We can make confident-sounding predictions but, in truth, guessing what will happen in the National League in any given year requires a leap of imagination as great as anything managed by our former Taoiseach. The league remains the most curious of competitions, unique almost in a global sporting context in that it tends to generate more excitement at the start of competition than it does at climax.
The fun at this time of the GAA year is in trying to figure out who wants to win the league more and who needs to win the league more.
