As the race for Sam Maguire is whittled down to the last four, other counties are already planning ahead to 2025.
Kerry, Donegal, Armagh and Galway are all still in the hunt for the All-Ireland, and it is not likely that any of the men in charge of those teams will be shown the door after this season, considering how well they have done.
Interestingly, the four remaining teams are all managed by men who are from their native counties, as Louth, Derry and Roscommon, who employ outside managers, were eliminated last weekend.
When planning ahead for a new season, job number one is confirming who will be in charge of the team and there are a few counties where that decision still needs to be made.
The likes of Monaghan's Vinny Corey, and Mayo's Kevin McStay, are likely to return next year as they are each in their second year, have reached moderate success between the two seasons, and there are no obvious replacements waiting in the wings to take over.
Colm O'Rourke managed Meath to Tailteann Cup glory last season, but failed to guide them out of the group stages this year, and has said himself that it will probably take five years or so to develop this young team, and that he is happy to remain in charge for that period.
Elsewhere we have flicked through the teams in Division One and Two and highlighted some of the potential hotseat changes that could take place this summer.

Mickey Harte
The Derry manager isn't the most popular man in the county right now after his side suffered four championship defeats and crashed out of the competition against Kerry last weekend.
The Tyrone native was given a three-year contract, but considering all of the outside noise, rumours, and negative news around the camp, and his position as their leader - it would not be overly surprising if he were to leave this summer.
Whether that is his decision or the county boards remains to be seen, and there are those who think he will stay in charge, like Oisin McConville who said that he will "absolutely" be there next season.
The Armagh legend doesn't think that Derry will go back on their original decision to bring him in the first place, but there is a lot of uncertainty around the Oakleaf county right now, and most of it stems from Harte's potential future.

Dessie Farrell
The Dublin manager has won two All-Irelands in his four seasons in charge, which is a fair return considering that he had to follow Jim Gavin's historic five-in-a-row tenure.
Last year when Stephen Cluxton, Jack McCaffrey, and Paul Mannion all came out of retirement, it was dubbed as 'The Last Dance", and a successful one at that as they lifted Sam Maguire at the end of the season.
It was reported though that the players asked Farrell to stay on for another year, and the likes of Mick Fitzsimons, and James McCarthy did the same, despite winning their ninth All-Ireland medal, a record breaking achievement.
Now though, following the Galway defeat, those players might opt to retire, and Farrell could join them, officially bringing a special era of Dublin football to an end.
Brian Dooher and Feargal Logan
Last year the join-managers signed a new three-year deal to stay in charge of Tyrone, and following their All-Ireland success in 2021, it was right to entrust these men with the job.
However, a lot has changed since they agreed that deal, as Dooher was then appointed as Chief Veterinary Officer of Northern Ireland, a hugely demanding job, with enormous responsibility.
Logan also suffered from medical issues that meant he couldn't join Dooher on the sideline for matches, and obviously his health will and should be his top priority.
These exterior factors, and the fact that Tyrone didn't make the quarter final stages of the championship following a very poor performance against Roscommon in Healy Park, could mean that the Red Hand County will have new faces in charge next season.
Davy Burke
Roscommon had a strange season, where they were relegated from Division One and only won two games in the whole championship, but still ended up reaching an All-Ireland quarter final.
Their victory over Tyrone in the preliminary quarter final was undoubtedly the best win of his time in charge of The Connacht side, but whether or not the Rossies have made progress in the past two years is up for debate.
With his native Kildare actively looking for a new manager, Burke wold be a strong candidate to get that job, but after the defeat to Armagh he was quick to confirm his desire to stay with Roscommon by saying; "Absolutely. How could you not want to work with Brian Stack and the likes of that?"
John Cleary
The Cork manager guided The Rebels to the quarter final stages last year, and although they stumbled a round earlier than that this season, it is clear that they have made some progress.
Cleary has created a bit of steeliness to the team that saw them be competitive against Kerry, beat Clare, and shock everyone when they put Donegal to the sword in the group stages.
They put on a good performance again against Tyrone, and only lost by a point to a very good Louth side, and there were reports that the team was suffering with a bug in the camp during this game.
After their championship exit, Cleary said that it is “definitely not a definite” that he will stay on next year, so Cork could be on the hunt for a new manager very soon.
