Senior football, hurling and u20 action on this weekend.
Last weekend proved that anything can happen in championship, no matter what time of year it happens to be played at.
The All-Ireland champion’s were handed an almighty hiding by Derry, and now things look more open than ever as to who will lift the Sam Maguire this year.
Cork may be taking some inspiration from the Oakleaf county’s underdog heroics as they face the seemingly impossible task of beating Kerry in the Munster championship this Saturday.
Jack O’Connor’s side have been unstoppable in the league, winning some huge games against the big hitters like Dublin, Mayo, Donegal etc, while The Rebel county have struggled greatly.
Before that though, Sligo continue their brilliant run in the u20 championship, as they face Leinster champions Kildare on TG4.
Then on Sunday, Tyrone u20s will be looking to restore some pride back in the Red Hand county when they face Kerry in the other semi-final.
The hurling is up next, when the champion’s take on Tipperary, and could there be another shock in Ulster, as Cavan come up against Declan Bonner’s impressive Donegal side?
