See Michael Murphy's fabulous point for DCU v UCD today in the Irish Daily Mail Sigerson Cup, on Higher Education's youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/HEGAATV

Nice finish although he didn't chip it over his marker first like people were saying on Twitter. Looked like he went to dummy solo the ball thinking he might get blocked and slightly overcooked it.

Yeah, still an unreal score. Absolute monster of a player, very reminiscent of Colin Corkery with his effortless style.

Good to see the hosts make the finals weekend, it looks to be DCU's competition to lose.

that's a very good comparison yellowcard, appears to be slow in style but definitely isnt, though Murph is in tip-top trim condition which is where the comparison falls a little!

Yeah I would agree that he is a lot more mobile, its more the lazy natural style that he displays. Anyway he seems to have grown in stature since the AI win, all round brilliant player.

Former All Star is Gary Connaughton
Brother of all Star is Athlone manager Martin McCabe, brother of Dermot ?

The Sigerson is tomorrow in Athlone. This should put you in the mood, Michael Murphy's scores from the previous two games, including a class moment 50 seconds in where the UCD bench tell him to hurry up. He just looks over with disdain and then nails the kick. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97EaG5ZDIfE

Brother v brother in the final if UCC and DCU make it, Niall Daly's with UCC and Conor is DCU.

With the family from Pearses, only a few miles outside Athlone, there could be a lot of torn loyalties in the stand if the semis hold to form.

DCU are being made out to be a one man team but they have a team of super stars. I was at the DCU UCD game and when it was over you should have seen the amount of kids running on seeking autographs. No other college team has this appeal or attraction. The Harlem globe trotters of Sigerson with an ego maniac as manager.

You've made your point, now just let it go and allow the rest of us enjoy it for what it is.

DIT will be without Sean George today, big loss, had a great game for Ballymun last week. Still think they will give  DCU a good game. 12.45k/o

They've been more or less planning without him most of the time as far as I know, he would have been a nice addition but not exactly a loss as such.

I still fancy DIT to have a right cut off DCU. DCU are justifiably favourites but should be warm rather than red hot. Fancy DIT to get one over them tbh. Don't think Athlone will have enough to do the same to UCC, especially if Shine is missing.

Previews of the two matches here by the way, and we'll be doing live updates later as well:
