Great stuff.
The Six Nations may be taking a week off and the Premier League gives way to the FA Cup but there are a ton of great football and hurling matches on Saturday and Sunday for GAA heads to enjoy.
Moorefield and Corofin kick things off in the All-Ireland club SFC semi-final on Saturday afternoon, with throw-in at 2pm from Bord Na Mona O’Connor Park in Tullamore.
There is also a live stream of the All-Ireland Scór na nÓg Finals from 3pm, courtesy of TG4’s YouTube account.
A bit later, NUIG take on UCD in the eagerly-anticipated Sigerson Cup final. NUI Galway are competing in the showpiece for the first time since 2003, while UCD will be hoping to extinguish the pain of last year’s shock final defeat to St Mary’s by going one better this time.
In hurling, Limerick welcome Pat Gilroy’s Dublin to the Gaelic Grounds, which throws-in at 7pm. You can see that on eir Sport 1 while, on eir Sport 2, Tipperary face Wexford in Division 1A, with that match also starting at 7pm.
On Sunday, TG4 have their usual extended coverage, with Clare v Cork in the NHL at 2pm. Following that clash in Ennis, there is deferred coverage of Kilkenny’s trip to Waterford and Monaghan taking on Kerry in the football, starting at 3.40pm and 5pm respectively.
So, there you have it. That should be enough to see you through the weekend.
