Fair play to Westmeath beating the Dubs to win their second ever Leinster title (The Dubs have won it 63 times). Watched it in a pub in Dublin, the locals weren't happy. Westmeath were by far the better team on the day though.

Hon the Farney. Massive (and somewhat unexpected) win for Monaghan over Derry.

And we ran Armagh close but ah well. If we had to lose to anyone it might as well be them.

Like Roscommon, a narrow one point defeat for Monaghan so we're both in Round 2B. How much further we go depends on Tuesday's draw for both 2B and 2A. I'm keen to avoid Kerry, or Dublin away, if possible.

Draw has been made. Winners of 2A go straight into the quarter-finals. Winners of 2B player the losers of 2A f.or the other 4 places.

Round 2A
Tyrone v Mayo
Louth v Armagh
Donegal v Cork
Galway v Westmeath

Round 2B
Derry v Meath
Kildare v Kerry
Cavan v Dublin
Monaghan v Roscommon

I think we should just have enough for Monaghan, but a trip to Clones is always tricky. Handy draws for Kerry, Dublin, and Gakway.

Mixed feelings on the Leinster Hurling final. I usually want Galway to do well, but wouldn't begrudge Dublin a second title in 65 years. Plus it's important that hurling thrives in the capital.

Disappointing display by Dublin. Galway worthy winners of their fourth Leinster title, it never really looked in doubt.

Good Munster hurling final so far with Cork leading by 2 points at the break. Luimneach Abú!

That was a cracking final. Limerick win it by a point.

:( A very disappointing day for the Rossies, they didn't show up at all yesterday. Well-deserved win for Monaghan, hope they make the quarters at least. There were a couple of other surprising results with Cork and Meath winning in Donegal and Derry, which won't have displeased Armagh and Galway.

Wow, Louth beat Armagh with a goal in the last second of the game. Great stuff from the Wee County.

The winner, complete with the Louth keeper doing an Emi to the Armagh fans. https://x.com/officialgaa/status/2066156533977690480

That late goal could prove costly for Armagh as they've been drawn away to Kerry. Winnable ties for Monaghan and Mayo.

Kerry v Armagh
Dublin v Donegal
Monaghan v Westmeath
Mayo v Meath

It's Kerry's to lose now, but I'm hoping that Galway can bring Sam west. I expect wins for Kerry, Galway, and Monaghan (narrowly), with Cork v Mayo too tight to call.
