Football.
Really thought Derry were gonna win yesterday but Fermanagh showed great fitness to come back. I expect them to be facing Armagh in the final. Armagh against Down should be a good game next Sunday.
Wexford had too much for Laois in their Leinster semi final this afternoon. Laois butchered too many opportunities. Dublin really should win the Leinster Championship quite comfortably (again) this year. Hopefully Westmeath will give them a good game next Sunday.
Mayo destroying Sligo this afternoon by thirteen points was a big shock. Really thought Sligo would have put up a better fight than that. Mayo against Galway should be a good final.
Hurling.
Clare destroyed Limerick in their Munster semi final this afternoon (just finished watching it on Setanta) - this Limerick side is playing so much worse than last year it's unbelievable. Tipperary should beat Clare in the final, though. If anyone is to beat Kilkenny this year it'll be Tipp.
Wexford just got the better of Dublin in their Leinster semi final replay at Croke Park this afternoon by a single goal - completing a great day for Wexford GAA. Wexford were always in front and you have to feel that Dublin lost their chance to get to their first Leinster final in seventeen years (I think) last weekend. Still, this Dublin side will probably make a breakthrough in the next few years, but it will be many years before a team from Leinster will be challenging Kilkenny on a regular basis.
