They're tournament favourites, and considerably so, but Killian Clarke isn't too sure if Cavan would celebrate a Tailteann Cup win like it's 2020.

It's still only 18 months since Cavan were crowned Ulster champions by beating Donegal, a genuine All-Ireland contender, whom they pushed hard again in this season's provincial semi-finals.
