SATURDAY 23 JULY
Armagh v Sligo
Armagh and Sligo have struggled so far this season, both in the Championship and in their respective League campaigns.
Armagh managed to get the better of Sligo when the two sides met earlier in the year but following the Orchard County's heavy defeat to Monaghan in the opening round of the Ulster Championship, it will be interesting to see how they bounce back.
Sligo suffered a heavy loss themselves in their opening Championship match against Mayo, shipping six goals in the process. If Sligo can limit Caroline O'Hanlon's influence they have a chance but with neither side firing on all cylinders, it may well come down to which team digs deepest on the day.
Armagh v Sligo Senior Championship round 1 qualifier, Saturday, 3.30pm at Pearse Park:
Armagh: C McAlinden, S McCoy, A Donaldson, C McCann, R O'Reilly, L Brown, S McCleary, M Moriarty, C Malone, M Luckie, C O'Hanlon, L Knox, M O'Donnell, K Mallon, M McAlinden.
Sligo: K Connolly, E Codd, R Monaghan, A Ewing, A Marie Coleman, J Mulligan, A Horgan, B Byrne, S O'Sullivan, K Maloney, N Fowley, S McTiernan, L Gillespie, S Scully, N Gormley
Dublin v Kildare
All-Ireland Champions Dublin will be hoping to get their season back on track following their one-point loss to Meath in the Leinster semi-final. They face neighbours Kildare, who fell at the same stage, losing to eventual champions Laois.
Kildare have played at a higher level to Dublin in this year's National League so should not be overawed by the opposition and in Aisling Holton and Noelle Earley they have two of the stars of the modern game.
However, with two All-Ireland appearances in two years, Dublin's experience in big games may prove to be the deciding factor. With no more second chances, if Dublin can get enough quality ball in to Sinead Aherne they should advance to the next round.
Dublin v Kildare Senior Championship round 1 qualifier, Saturday, 5.15pm at Pearse Park:
Dublin: C O'Connor, S Goldrick, J O'Sullivan, G O'Malley, G Fay, S Furlong, S McGrath, D Materson, N McEvoy, M Nevin, E Kelly, L Peat, N Healy, S Aherne, A Ring.
Kildare: E Kelly, P Delahunt, A Savage, D Tierney, K Leahy, A Holton, D Barry, B Leahy, J Timmins, T Noone, M Moolick, N Earley, S Cannon, D Gately, A Gately.
SUNDAY 24 JULY
Down v Donegal
Donegal have been making huge strides of late. Last year's Intermediate Championship victory was followed up by an encouraging performance during the league campaign, which saw them finish third behind Monaghan and Cork in Division 1. A set back in the Ulster Championship semi-finals against Tyrone means they now face another provincial clash in Clones this weekend.
Down were beaten comprehensively by Monaghan in the Ulster Championship and failed to impress in Division 3 during the League.
They crashed out of last season's Championship at this stage, and unless they can radically improve the form they have shown to date, a similar fate awaits them with Yvonne McMonagle and Geraldine McLaughlin expected to shine for Donegal.
Donegal v Down Senior Championship round 1 qualifier, Sunday, 3pm in Clones:
Down: K Magee, C Higgins, C Moane, E Mulhern, K Boden, C Magee, O Quinn, S Venny, C Fitzpatrick, G Mc Clean, K Trainor, P Moane, N Ferris, S Ennis, S Kelly.
Donegal: R McCafferty, K Keeney, K Herrin, T McCafferty, G Houston, C Hegarty, K Wilson, A Mc Donnell, K Guthrie, R Friel, N Hegarty, E Gallagher, G McLaughlin, Y McMonagle, N McLaughlin.

Tyrone Ladies Face Huge Challenge
ALL IRELAND SENIOR CHAMPIONSHIP
Round Two Qualifier
TYRONE 2-20 TIPPERARY 1-11
Tyrone's Seniors will face the biggest test of the season to date on Saturday evening when Martina Dillon's side face the Leinster champions Laois at Birr for a place in the All Ireland Semi Final.
A good win over Tipperary last Saturday in Mullingar sealed Tyrone's place in the Quarter final but last Saturday's top scorer Gemma Begley admits it will be a tough test,
"We certainly expect Laois to be very hard to beat, they are the Leinster champions after all and I am sure they will be well prepared for us. Dublin had been hotly tipped to come out of the Province but Laois came out on top, it's a measure of the quality and experience they have"
Begley hit a very good 1-7 against Tipperary as Tyrone turned in a decent second half display. Martina Dillon's side though looked to always have too much for Tipp, leading 0-10 to 0-5 at the break after a whirlwind start that saw the impressive Catriona McGahan hit a point in the opening twenty seconds.
Both sides traded early points and the Munster side threatened briefly with the Tyrone defence stretched at times to contain Trisha Hickey and Mairead Morrissey. It was however just a threat with Maura Kelly and Eimear Teague settling things down.
Early second half goals from Gemma Begley and Cathy Donnelly eased any worries and Tyrone opened a gap that was never going to be closed. Neamh Woods, Emma Conlon and Ashling O'Kane added points with substitutes Christiane Hunter and Sarah Connolly also on target with points as Tyrone pulled away from their now well beaten opponents.
Tipperary did have a final flourish, Tyrone keeper Shannon Lynch denied Hickey from point blank range before Edel Hanley nipped in for a goal, all too little too late though as Tyrone advanced. Forward Begley happy to progress,
"It was a tricky enough tie for us at the weekend. Tipperary were up for the game and we had to be careful, thankfully we were able to step it up a gear and get the scores to take us through"
Tyrone played well in the second half but Begley who hit 1-4 against Laois at Beragh when the sides met in the national league admits Tyrone must improve
"I think we are well aware that we must take it to another level if we are to win on Saturday. Laois are big and physical and they have improved since we played them in the league, but to be honest we have also improved and we have the right mix. We can only do our best and hope we can get the win, we are confident we can reach another semi-final"
In that league tie Tyrone lost 2-12 to 2-6 on a wet day in Beragh, for whatever reason, Tyrone who had been very much in touch after trailing 2-2 to 0-4 capitulated in the final ten minutes despite leading 2-6 to 1-7. Veteran Tracey Lawlor allowed to orchestrate a comfortable six point win.
The Championship is a different matter and Laois have spoilt the Tyrone party in the past. Once again the Leinster side will go into the live televised clash as favourites but Dillon's side have an air of confidence and certainly caused the Laois defence problems in their last meeting. The scoring prowess of Begley, The Donnellys Cathy and Joline and of course veteran Catriona McGahan will give Tyrone the attacking edge while the return of Shannon Quinn continues to give the Tyrone management plenty of midfield and defensive options.
Throw in time on Saturday evening in Birr is 6-00pm

That last free for Laois when Tyrone were attacking was ridiculous! The Laois player tried to take Neamh Woods out off the ball and Laois get a free. Good to see Eilish Gormley get the final point to level the thing up. Some justice in that.

KERRY 2-12 MONAGHAN 4-15
By Jackie Cahill at St Brendan's Park, Birr - the coldest place in Ireland.
ULSTER champions Monaghan produced a devastating final quarter against Kerry in Saturday's TG4 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Semi Final to set up a final meeting with Cork on September 25th.
The showpiece decider will be a repeat of the 2008 Final between the two counties, which Cork won comfortably, but Monaghan will fancy their chances of gaining revenge in Croke Park.
When their character was questioned in a hugely entertaining Semi Final, Monaghan found the answers and eventually cruised to a nine-point win.
Monaghan had led by eight points at one stage in the first half but gritty Kerry kept chipping away and were ahead by a point twice in the second half.
But ultimately, it was a run of 2-5 without reply which sealed the deal for the Farney County, as Kerry also lost the services of centre back Aisling Desmond in the final ten minutes, after she was yellow-carded.
Caoimhe Mohan's late brace of goals, in the 48th and 55th minutes, provided Monaghan with the breathing space they craved and shellshocked Kerry, a player light, had no answer down the home straight.
But the beaten Munster finalists, who lost at the All-Ireland Semi Final stage for the second successive year, emerged with their heads held high after giving free-scoring Monaghan a real fight.
The winners have lost just one competitive game all year, in the Division 1 Semi Final, and have forwards that are capable of wreaking havoc with a regular supply of ball.
Cathriona McConnell scored 1-6, Mohan 2-1 and Therese McNally collected 1-3 but captain Sharon Courtney claimed the player of the match award following a powerhouse performance at full-back.
And at corner forward, Ciara McAnespie may not have scored but she was a constant thorn in Kerry's side with her direct running and eye for a pass.
Indeed, it was McAnespie who helped to create Monaghan's two first half goals, as McNally and McConnell profited from the Emyvale dynamo's industry in the opening ten minutes.
At Half Time, Monaghan led by 2-7 to 0-8, having played against the breeze, with Sarah Houlihan's six first half points keeping Kerry in touch.
Within 28 seconds of the restart, Deirdre Corridan banged home a superb Kerry goal and suddenly, it was very much game on.
And when corner forward Louise Ní Mhuircheartaigh goaled in the 38th minute, Kerry were a point clear, 2-9 to 2-8.
The sides were level twice more before Monaghan stepped on the gas, with Kerry left to rue Desmond's ten minute spell in the sin bin.
Huge gaps opened up in the Kingdom's rearguard and Monaghan were ruthless enough to exploit them.
Scorers for Kerry: S Houlihan 0-6 (4f), L Ní Mhuircheartaigh 1-2, D Corridan 1-0, B Breen, M O'Donoghue, L Cronin & S Corkery 0-1 each.
Scorers for Monaghan: C McConnell 1-6 (0-3f), C Mohan 2-1, T McNally 1-3, E McCarron 0-3, N Kindlon (f) & L McEnaney 0-1 each.
KERRY: E Murphy; C Kelly, A Leonard, A Lyons; D Hallissey, A Desmond, SJ Joy; L Scanlon, B Breen; D Corridan, M O'Donoghue, L Galvin; S Houlihan, P Dennehy, L Ní Mhuircheartaigh.
Subs: L Cronin for Dennehy (21), M O'Connell for O'Donoghue (53), S Corkery for Corridan (56), L O'Sullivan for Lyons (60+2).
MONAGHAN: L Martin; G McNally, S Courtney, C Reilly; A McAnespie, N Fahy, L Connolly; A Casey, C Courtney; T McNally, E McCarron, C McConnell; C McAnespie, N Kindlon, C Mohan.
Subs: I Kierans for C Courtney (37), L McEnaney for Kindlon (40), E McElroy for Connolly (58), N Mohan for McConnell (60+1).
Referee: K Tighe (Dublin).

Congrats to the girls from New York, great win. Hopefully they can win it all now and take the title across the Atlantic.

The missed frees proved costly, but not as costly as it will be for us over here, more fundraisers!! Na fair play to the girls i thought they had it, in fairness Wicklow had their fair share of wides aswell. Wicklow manger seems happy with a trip to NY for the replay. Would be a nice occasion in Gealic Park. Would they have to keep the same panel for replay? If Wicklow did decide to travel across NY would have alot more players available to them that were not able to travel.

typical tyrone man. the game just over and already ur thinking af playing illegal players in the replay lol
Lol, just wondering. Watched it in the house, was a little early for the bar.
Westmeath look much more athletic than Cavan.
Cavan have better finishers though.
I think they should use different goalposts for the ladies football.
The crossbar is too high for most of them to cover the foot of space underneath it.

Hard luck to the lakettes, exciting ending but they were lucky to draw the match after going asleep after their first 2 points. 15 for Cavan had a left foot Ciaran McDonald would be proud of. They'll have to score more than 5 points the next day to win it.
Any word on Cavan Westmeath replay?
What the hell was the Monaghan keeper at for the goal?!
Bit rough on New York having to come back for a replay....
Some good hits in this game.
The Cork full back and centre back are tough cookies.
Cavan were lucky to get the draw but at the same time, should have had the game wrapped up long before Westmeath got their first goal.... In fairness Westmeath got a decent start and then didn't do too much until the middle of the second half...
Cork have the blanket defence down!
Monaghan got a free about 30 yards out with 30 seconds to go and needed a goal to win yet there were only about 3 Monaghan players inside the opposition 45.
What the hell were the rest of them doing?
Watching ladies football can be quite frustrating, they do a lot of silly stuff.
Cork deserved the win though and they have some superb athletes.
Very impressed with their no.4, think her name was O'Reilly.

Anyone else think that yellow card for Cavan was very harsh?
Jaysus they blew that one....
Cavan must be disgusted the way they lost
Well done to the Lakettes, show the men how it's done. Missed the great comeback in the last 15 mins as had to head out the door, where would one find it online?

Well done Westmeath. One of the differences was that you could score from play.

Weren't looking too hot in the first half but if you're gonna win an AI title, that's the way to do it. Thanks for link.
Of the following players, who do you think is presently the best female forward?
Therese McNally (Monaghan)
Elaine Kelly (Dublin)
Mary Kirwan (Laois)
Ciara McAnespie (Monaghan)
Rhona Ní Bhuachalla (Cork)
Sinéad Aherne (Dublin)
Cora Staunton (Mayo)
Cathy Donnelly (Tyrone)
Gemma Begley (Tyrone)
Amy McGuinness (Dublin)
Yvonne McMonagle (Donegal)
Joline Donnelly (Tyrone).
Yvonne McMonagle
If any of the other girls named is a better forward than Cora Staunton, then they must be some player. Staunton is, in my opinion, the best player of her generation. Kicked 1-9 in Sunday's All-Ireland Club final and was still giving out about how bad she played.

She (Cora Staunton) is the only one of the above not to get nominated for an all-star for 2010 or 2011!
Why? ???
Cora is the best player ever to grace the ladies game but she is not the player she was

Yeah, she is probaby only averaging 5 to 6 points plus a game as apposed to 10 to 12 plus in her hayday! ;D

Mayo are not the team they were, that's the problem. Cora is still playing as well as ever but is, all too often, ploughing a lone furrow. She scored 2-15 for Carnacon in the Connacht Ladies Club championship against the Galway champs. 2-10, I think, was from play. It would be something else to know what she has scored over the course of her career.

So why is she not getting nominated for an All-star?
If she doesn't get the platform, she's not going to get nominated really. Mayo were pulled out of the competition last year by their excuse for a county board and this year they didn't get far either. Cora was famously denied an All-Star before because she was sent-off in a club game.
Just heard the news that one of Longfords finest lady footballers Allison Smyth, played with Rathcline, died last night at the tender age of 29. She will be missed deeply
Very young. RIP.
