I see Killoe are through to semi-final of Division 1 of Leinster Club Football League. Colmcille play St. Sylvesters (Dublin) tomorrow at 4pm in Colmcille to decide the last semi-final spot. Lucan Sarsfields and Thomas Davis from Dublin are the other two semi-finalists.

In Division 2 Clonguish play An Tochar of Westmeath in the semi-final. The other semi-final is Clonaslee (Laois) vs Milltown (Westmeath). Granard lost to Clonaslee in the Quarters during the week.

See link for details.

Colmcille won that QF at the weekend, so Leinster Club League Division 1 semi-finals are both Longford v Dublin...

Colmcille v Thomas Davis
Killoe v Lucan Sarsfields

Anyone have Colmcille v Killoe in a Leinster final on your 2023 bingo card? :-)

RIP Dermot McCormack, a powerful midfielder on the pitch in his day with Carrickedmond, a gentle, kind and funny man off the pitch. He will be sadly missed by his family and the GAA community.

Very sad news. Dermot was Man of the Match when Carrickedmond won the Intermediate Championship in 2001. A massive loss for family, community and club. RIP.

Surely this is not going to happen again this year? i know the club has had some retirements but name a club in the whole county that doesn't lose players each year to either retirement, immigration etc!!

Apparently there was disagreement on this in Ballymahon & last year's successful management decided to step down.

Footballers at home to Wicklow, hurlers away to Monaghan. Both are must-win. Chances?
