Also Waterford not doing too bad either considering there is only 2 teams that come out of the area.
I remember looking at the number of teams each league is allocated in the open draw(last 64). The Waterford League only gets 2 teams through to open draw and always seem to have a team in the latter stages whereas the Cork Leagues get 8 teams through and rarely get a team to the latter stages. I'll have a look and see it i can repost it.
here are the quarter finalists from the last 7 years:
Winners Runners Up Semis Semis Quarters
2005 Westport Crystal Carew Hibs Bellurgan Killester Ballynanty Park
2006 Crystal Athenry Killester Castlebar Clonmel T Aisling Pike Portmarnock
2007 Killester Bosco Villa Salthill Wembley Carrick West Grattan
2008 Carrick Killester Corduff Castlebar Redcastle Manor St Micks Clonmel T
2009 Ballymun St Peters Bohs Erris Sherriff Clonmel T Fairview Lissleton
2010 Fairview St Micks Regional Clonmel T Pike Shangan Willow Killmallock
2011 Pike St Micks New Ross Sherriff Athenry S Peters North End Cavan Town
Decent record for a cup competition. If the WJL was combined with WWEC whiich it should be there would a 3rd Waterford rep every year in the out of town stages. Instead the TSDL NTDL and WWEC are joined together to give them 4 spots from 3 leagues. Crazy stuff considering the WJL are joined with the WWEC in the munster junior cup.
Ballymote v Carrick has being fixed for this Sunday.

My teams to win are Kufc, milford, sheriff, tramore, o devaney, sandyhill, clonmel celtic, ballymun.
