It’s a crucial time in the AIB club series.
The provincial club championships continue this weekend with action, in hurling, football and camogie across the country.
Titles, and places in finals, are all to be decided, with club players looking to extend their season for at least another week, or to end the year on a high
In Ulster you have housemates clashing, while in Munster camogie, the four Kaiser sisters of Newmarket-on-Fergus and formerly of Switzerland, will be looking to put a halt to the march of Milford and Anna Geary.
Ulster Senior club semi final Trillick (Tyrone) V Scotstown(Monaghan) Brewster Park Sunday 2.30Â
Whatever happens on Sunday, we think that Richard Donnelly and Kieran Hughes will be avoiding each other around the breakfast table on Monday morning.
Monaghan senior star Hughes will be lining out for his club Scotstown, while Donnelly will be hoping that he can continue Trillick’s fairytale 12 months by helping them reach an Ulster final in their first season at senior provincial level.
Their rivalry is complicated by the fact that both men are housemates, which may have made for some interesting chats at the dinner table this week.
Trillick only secured intermediate honours in 2014, but are in the last four of the Ulster senior club championship on merit, and will face a Scotstown side who dumped Slaughtneil out of the provincial championship last time out.
Munster Senior Club semi final Legion V Nemo Rangers Pairc Ui Rinn Sunday 2.30
James O’Donoghue’s Legion side have a chance to make a unique piece of history this Sunday as they could become the first side to reach a Munster club final, without having won their respective county senior title.
Because of a quirk in the Kerry system, the Killarney side take on the Munster kingpins looking to book a place in the final after last week’s draw with South Kerry.
Kerry fans will know plenty of the Nemo faces on show with current players like Paul Kerrigan playing alongside wily old veterans like James Masters, who grabbed 1-5 in last week’s over Stradbally.

But of most interest for visiting Legion fans may  be the chance to see the legendary Tomas O Sé line out for the Cork champions at centre-back.
The former All-Ireland winner is sure to come across his former Kingdom colleagues James O’Donoghue or Jonathan Lyne at some stage during the game in what promises to be an intriguing battle

Anna Geary and Ashling Thompson will lead the Milford charge into Sunday’s  Munster senior camogie club final but they will face a tough test in the Clare outfit backboned by the uniquely named Kaiser sisters.
Carol, Niki, Iris and Ruth have won 22 county senior championship medals between them and for a family with no real camogie tradition have blossomed into one of the best known, and competitive camogie finals around.
Their surname can be accounted for by their origins in Switzerland, and the family only moved to Ireland when their father Martin took up a job with Shannon Aerospace in 1995.
2015 marks their 20th year in Ireland, and they will be hoping to cap a remarkable season with a Munster crowd that will be hard won against the Cork side that will be looking to make up for exiting the All-Ireland series at semi final stage earlier this year.
@bogorman007 yes c'mon the blues! Of course, I was scoping out the areas for clues 🙂
