Runaway provincial juggernauts

What do Dublin and Mayo have in common apart from a rivalry that is growing with each game that passes?

This Sunday, each county is gunning for their 10th consecutive win in their respective province; Dublin having started their run against their forthcoming opponents Laois in June 2011 while Mayo square up to Roscommon three years on from the start of their dominance with that shaky extra-time win in Ruislip.

Under James Horan, Mayo have yet to slip in Connacht and boast an average winning margin of over 11 points across their nine games. Their recent landslide win over New York last month is included in those stats but take it out and the average of 10 points is still impressive.
