Replying To BarneyGrant:  "Should have backed Daingean!"
Yeah, fair play to them. Should be an interesting final this year. Much needed weekend off now for all before the final.
Dublin's football championship is inter county player friendly. 3 group games and no more than 3 knockout games. Feet up then for the winter.

Down here we have Castletown v Gusserane in the final. A repeat of the 2019 final which Castletown won. Gusserane then knocked Castletown out in the QF in 2021, while Castletown won last year's match up between the 2 at the SF stage. Hopefully that would make it Gusseranes turn to win this year!!!!

Would love to be at Crokes/Daingean and might be! Although same weekend as our county hurling final which promises to be another Crokes/Fianna epic so possibly not.

Football final on Sunday between Crokes footballers (no end to them!) and Cuala should be good, Nothing against Crokes but would love to see Cuala stopping them winning four in a row! Also be great to see Con and Fitz (and rest of team of course) get a crack at winning a county and more.

Apart from Con, are there any more of the All-Ireland winning hurling teams on the football team at the moment?

Just himself. Might be one or two peripheral panel members but can't think of any off top of head. Not huge crossover between their hurling and football at adults.

If Con did go on to win football AI that would put him in small elite! Maybe one of Finbarrs in Cork?

Alan Kerins as well. He did it with two different clubs though. Clarinbridge in hurling and Salthill in football.

Ah. Some achievement all the same. Has to be a few Barrs players from 70s. Names not coming to me though.

Crokes are a semi professional team

If the GAA had balls they would investigate them and relegate them.
If it can be done to Juventus in Seria A, why not a Shamateur organisation in the GAA.

Waterford SFC final
Rathgormack 2-10 Ballinacourty 0-08
Rathgormack will take on the Kerry or Cork champions in the Munster semi-final. It'll be a Cork or Waterford venue.

Relegate them for what?

Late to the party here - What finals are on this week, available for streaming or that - I don't have a dodgy box. I'd like to sit up and watch a few. Any to keep an eye out for?

Trillick v Errigal in Tyrone on Friday evening should be a right good game , whoever wins quite possibly could give Ulster a good rattle
